    Episode 54: Accidental Hostful

    Unfortunately, we experienced our first guest "no-show," and as professional podcasters, we took it in stride and interviewed each other for an hour. In all seriousness, we are far from professional, but we made the best of it. Our guest had an unfortunate scheduling conflict, and we've already rescheduled him for the next episode, as of this writing. In the meantime, please enjoy Brent and Marc shooting the proverbial poop.  Brent's watch: https://www.instagram.com/p/DAvm3OnRVEU/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Marc's watch: https://serica-watches.com/en/products/5303-2-diving-chronometer The Calibrated Wrist: https://thecalibratedwrist.com/ Marc's writing on W&W: https://wornandwound.com/author/marc-levesque/ Marc's writing on TCW: https://thecalibratedwrist.com/author/marctime2watch/ Toronto Timepiece Show Tickets: https://am.ticketmaster.com/tolive/buy/totimepiece/sales Link to our community Discord: https://discord.gg/zEy5ThudvA - JOIN THE CONVERSATION Our Instagram Profiles: https://www.instagram.com/time2calibrate/ https://www.instagram.com/marctime2watch/ https://www.instagram.com/timetogo1978/ https://www.instagram.com/calibre321/

    Episode 52: Year 2 in the books!

    Countless conversations. Hundreds of watches. One incredible community. In this special anniversary episode, we're celebrating two years behind the microphone by looking back at the journey that brought us here. We revisit some of our favorite episodes and memorable moments, reflect on the guests and conversations that left a lasting impression, and, because we can't resist talking watches, we build multiple three-watch collections we'd be thrilled to own. We also dive into listener questions, sharing our thoughts on collecting, the hobby, and everything in between. Most importantly, we take a moment to thank every one of you who has listened, commented, and supported the podcast over the past two years. This show wouldn't exist without this amazing community. Finally, we look ahead to what's next for Time 2 Calibrate, sharing our excitement for the future and what's still to come. Whether you've been with us since Episode 1 or you're just discovering the show, thank you for being part of the journey. Here's to the next chapter!
