Taylor is Worn & Wound’s new Media Director, and we thought it would be a good idea to get him in front of the mic to introduce him to our podcast audience. Taylor is a talented filmmaker whose work will probably be familiar to many podcast listeners (he’s produced a number of videos with Worn & Wound, all of which we discuss in the episode). This conversation is all about getting to know Taylor: the watches he’s interested in, his approach to watch content, and more

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders are interrogating some watch industry conventional wisdom. There’s a lot of it out there. From the idea that it’s the “story” that matters most in a watch, to the principle of “buying what you love,” and even the idea that everyone needs a certain type of watch in their collection. This is a fun conversation and Zach and Kat definitely poke some holes in some watch industry ideas that perhaps don’t stand up completely to close scrutiny. Let us know in the comments if we’re on the right track!

And stay tuned until the end of the pod for some great cultural recs from Zach and Kat, including a produce recommendation from Kat (a first on the podcast) and one of Zach’s most watched trailers ever for a movie that looks absolutely insane.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Kat Shoulders welcome Doug LaViolette. Doug is the founder of the Brian LaViolette Scholarship Foundation, and recently collaborated with Sheffield on a new watch that honors his late son, Brian, and raises money for the foundation named for him, which has awarded thousands of scholarships to students all over the world. Doug tells us the story of his son, what the foundation has accomplished and hopes to accomplish in the future, and of course all about the watch itself. Mostly though, this is a conversation about community, and the great ways that watches and the people in this hobby can accomplish worthwhile things.

This week on the Worn & Wound podcast, Zach Kazan and Cait Bazemore are holding themselves accountable and talking about the watches they were wrong about. After years of collecting and working in the watch industry, Zach and Cait have both realized there have been times when they were just plain wrong about a watch, or a preconceived notion about watches in general. In the spirit of reflection, this conversation focuses on watches we misjudged – things we liked and now don’t, or vice-versa. There’s also some discussion here about principles we’ve held that we’ve come around on in one way or another. It’s a fun conversation, and of course we welcome your input: what have you been wrong about in your time in this hobby? Let us know in the comments!
