The Worn & Wound Podcast Ep 299: Strap Monsters, Time Eaters, and WatchRecon Alerts

This week on the podcast, Blake, Zach Kazan, Zach Weiss, and Kat are all in the studio. Maybe it’s the whole “recording in person” thing, but this one has a bit of everything, including a lengthy wrist check that dives into numerous tangents, from potential alternative terms for “strap monster” (and why we don’t refer to pants as “belt monsters”), weird watch tools we don’t know how to use, and how to solve the problem of too much text on a dial. Other topics in this totally normal episode of the podcast include our favorite Corvettes, toad straps, and watches that say Turbo on the dial. The main topic, such as it is, is a dive into our WatchRecon alerts, inspired by Zach Kazan’s recent editorial on the strange connection to old watch searches.
