• Ep 394: Our Big Watches & Wonders Roundup

  This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Weiss, Kat Shoulders, and Zach Kazan are looking back at the recently completed Watches & Wonders event. It’s been about two weeks and we’ve all had a bit of time to digest everything we saw in Geneva, and in this episode we hear about some of the trends we identified, watches we loved, and overall impressions of the show and our time in Geneva. We also answer a bunch of questions from our Worn & Wound+ Slack community on everything from our favorite booths, hidden gems, and those TAG Heuer F1s. 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 393: Watches & Wonders, a Collection Purge, and Chocolate Covered Almonds

  This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan is back from Geneva, fighting jetlag, and chatting with Devin Pennypacker about the broad strokes of Watches & Wonders, how the show was received back home, and some of the notable watches released last week. We’ll have a much more thorough breakdown of Watches & Wonders and the surrounding events next week once the whole team has returned from Switzerland, so stay tuned for that discussion coming soon. The rest of the episode is dedicated to talking about a unique collecting phenomenon: the consolidation that many collectors attempt in light of the announcement of so many new novelties. It turns out that post Watches & Wonders is often a great time to troll WatchRecon, eBay, and elsewhere for pre-owned watches being unloaded to fund a newly announced shiny new thing. Devin is currently going through a bit of collection purge himself, and he and Zach talk about how they decide to let something go, and when they know it’s the right time to jump on something new.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 391: The Rise of Micro-Indies with Bhanu Chopra

  This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Zach Weiss are joined by Bhanu Chopra. Bhanu is likely a familiar figure to many – he’s a watch media mainstay, with bylines in Forbes, Revolution, and, of course, Worn & Wound, among others. If there’s one thing to know about Bhanu, it’s that he has a real passion for independent brands, particularly those on the small affordable side. He was well ahead of the curve when it comes to the current “micro-indie” movement in the watch world. We talk to Bhanu about why these brands mean so much to him, some of his favorite experiences visiting manufactures and ateliers over the years, and how he draws a distinction between a “microbrand” and an “indie” anyway.   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.

• Time On Screen - Phantom Thread

  In this new episode of Time on Screen, Zach Kazan welcomes Worn & Wound contributor Brett Braley to talk about Paul Thomas Anderson’s Phantom Thread. Why Phantom Thread? Well, for a number of reasons. First, PTA has a new film out later this year and it has Zach and other members of the Worn & Wound team thinking about his filmography. Second, there’s a clear link in our minds between the craft depicted in this film and the world of watchmaking. Third, Brett and Zach previously discussed Tár, a movie with more than a few links to Phantom Thread. Lastly, it’s just a great film, with great performances, and some of the best scenes of a couple eating breakfast that you’ll ever find in a movie. 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.
