    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, it’s another round of listener Q&A. Zach is joined by Kat Shoulders and Garrett Jones as they field questions from our Worn & Wound+ Slack channel and YouTube audience. As always, the questions are great and a huge range of topics are covered, from the concept of luxury field watches to the brands we most associate with our colleagues. Thanks to everyone who submitted a question for this episode! If your question wasn’t answered in this episode, we’ll be back next month with a new Q&A episode and another opportunity to pose questions to members of the Worn & Wound team.  Before we get into the Q&A, we also chat about some recent new releases from Jack Mason and Holthinrichs.

    Ep 412: Felix and Andy from OT: The Podcast

    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach is joined by Andy Green and Felix Scholz, hosts of OT: The Podcast. Over the last several years, Felix and Andy have developed OT into one of the top watch podcasts out there with a series of fantastic interviews with watch industry insiders, their own great rapport and sense of humor, and an enthusiastic community of fans (be sure to check out their Discord here). The last time Felix and Andy came on the Worn & Wound podcast, they had just released their first (and so far only) collaborative watch with anOrdain, and on this episode they spend some time reflecting on that experience and teasing what might be ahead. They also discuss the unique nature of watch enthusiasm in their native Australia, the appeal of the Apple Watch, how their attitude towards press trips has changed as the years pass, and some of their favorite releases from the year so.   To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

    Ep 411: How to Start a Collection in 2025

    On the podcast this week, Zach Kazan welcomes Devin Pennypacker to discuss a topic that comes up in the real life conversations of watch enthusiasts fairly often: how do you start a collection? When you’re the watch collector in a group of non-collectors, it’s something that’s inevitably asked from time to time by those who are curious about the hobby. Starting a collection, or entering the hobby at any level, is a very different proposition in 2025 than at any other time we can remember, so Zach and Devin provide some advice based on the current state of the watch world. They discuss everything from how to find your specific niche community within the larger watch world, how to filter out all the noise from social media, and of course they offer some suggestions for specific watches and brands to look at if you’re just getting started.  Before all of that, Zach and Devin also run through some of the notable recent releases from the last week, including a MoonSwatch that has generated no shortage of hot takes, and a Timex pulled from the archives. And stay tuned until the end of the episode for a new round of cultural recommendations.  We’d love to hear from you about the best ways to enter the hobby in 2025. What advice would you give to someone with a burgeoning interest in watches that Zach and Devin didn’t cover?   To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

  4. Time on Screen: The Life of Chuck

    Time on Screen: The Life of Chuck

    Time on Screen returns this week with an all new episode. In this episode, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders break down The Life of Chuck, the latest from Mike Flanagan, a favorite filmmaker among the Worn & Wound crew. The Life of Chuck is an adaptation of a Stephen King novella that is somewhat hard to describe. It follows the life of a single character through important stages of his life, with a story told in an extremely unconventional way, and is one of those movies that you’ll want to discuss and dissect as soon as you get out of the theater. It’s also a big left turn for Flanagan away from the horror genre, and feels like a much more personal statement.  In this conversation, Zach and Kat break down the movie’s structure and its key themes and scenes, and also rank their top three Mike Flanagan projects. They also talk about the importance of time as its portrayed in this movie, both in the way the story is told, and through a perfectly delivered Flanagan monologue that repurposes Carl Sagan’s famous “Cosmic Calendar” principle.   To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

    Ep 408: A Deeper Dive into the Best of 2025 (So Far), and a Closer Look at the Surprising New Breitling Top Time

    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Devin Pennypacker to take a deeper dive into some recent content on the blog. Namely, they’re taking a closer look at Devin’s recent review of the Breitling Top Time B31, which was an enormous and very pleasant surprise for both, as well as a closer examination of our favorite watches of the year so far. Both Zach and Devin defend their top choices, while also offering some additional favorites that did not make the final list. They also take stock of the year in general to this point, which has had a number of great releases, but doesn’t seem to have a consensus favorite to this point (which might be a good thing).  Let us know in the comments if there’s a watch we missed in our discussion of the year’s best, and be sure to tell us your own top picks.  To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

    Ep 407: Live from the Windup Watch Fair with Citizen

    This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, we’re bringing you back to Chicago and this year’s Windup Watch Fair in the Windy City. Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders jump on the mic mere hours after returning home from one of the busiest Windups we can remember, and quickly discuss some of their impressions of this year’s event and what made it special.  The bulk of this episode though is all about the Citizen Aqualand, one of the truly iconic dive watches of the 1980s. The Aqualand celebrates its 40th anniversary this year, and was a big focus for Citizen at this year’s Windup in Chicago. On the last day of the fair, Zach hosted a live recording of the podcast with Neall Brick, Director of Merchandising at Citizen, Ben Lowry of The Submersible Wrist & W.O.E., and artist Justin Sowders. As a panel, they cover the Citizen Aqualand from the company’s point of view, from the diver’s position, and from a creative perspective as well. Ben, Neall, and Justin also give a recap of this year’s “Windup in a Lake” dive trip, which once again brought a bit of the Windup spirit to Lake Michigan.   To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.
