The Worn & Wound Podcast

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Ben Cook. If you spend any time on Instagram or TikTok, you probably know Ben from the Ben’s Watches accounts on those platforms. In this episode, Zach and Ben have a wide ranging conversation about the state of the watch world, watch media, and touch on some new releases that have been on our minds as of late (yes, the Royal Pop is discussed on this podcast for the third week in a row…).

Exploring WatchTok with Ben Cook, Creator of Ben’s Watches

This week on the podcast, what else could we possibly discuss but the launch of the Royal Pop? The new Swatch x Audemars Piguet collaboration has been the topic of conversation around the watch world, and it’s that rare release that has actually transcended our community and become a bit of a pop culture moment more broadly. The bioceramic pocket watch has proven to be divisive among watch enthusiasts, and the launch day itself was a mess, with many Swatch stores closing for the day thanks to unruly crowds. Zach Kazan welcomes Zach Weiss and Cait Bazemore to the pod this week to talk about all of it!

Monthly Q&A: AP x Swatch, Grand Seiko, and Condiment Corner

In Hindsight: The Omega X SWATCH MoonSwatch

Review (with Video): Omega x Swatch BioCeramic Speedmaster MoonSwatch Mission to Jupiter

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan is joined by Garrett Jones for our monthly Q&A episode. Questions this month cover topics like Grand Seiko’s release strategy, the best straps for summer, and, of course, condiments (we’re about the trademark “Condiment Corner” for use on this podcast). We also got a lot of questions on the new watches from Swatch and Audemars Piguet, which at the time of this recording were not yet announced. Literally minutes after hitting “stop” on the recording, the press release came through, and all was revealed. So you’ll hear a lot of speculation on this podcast about a watch that by the time you hear the episode will have been largely digested by the watch community, but hopefully listeners enjoy seeing how wrong (and how right!) we were in some of our thoughts on what might come from these very different brands.

Watches & Wonders: Our Favorite Under the Radar Releases

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, the team is back from San Francisco, and yet another great edition of the Windup Watch Fair. Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are on the mic to recap the fair via a series of rapid fire questions covering their favorite versions of the new Christopher Ward Sealander (there are a bunch), to their favorite brands making Windup debuts, and even their favorite dining experiences in what is one of the country’s great food cities. There’s a lot to talk about, but we also want to hear from you. If you made it to San Francisco this weekend and attended the fair, what caught your eye? Let us know in the comments.

A Big Update for the Christopher Ward Sealander

Time on Screen: Zodiac

This week, the Time on Screen podcast returns! Ahead of the Windup Watch Fair in San Francisco, we’re talking about Zodiac, one of the great San Francisco movies and a favorite movie by David Fincer, one of our favorite filmmakers. Zach Kazan welcomes Kat Shoulders to the conversation, and they both have a deep appreciation for this film and have a lot to say about it. They run through some of their favorite scenes, a little production history, and discuss where this film sits in the San Francisco movie canon and David Fincher’s filmography.
