Tenn & Two Crossover!! In this 83rd episode of 40 and 20, we (finally!) sit down with our good friends Kat and Katlen from the amazing Tenn & Two Podcast to talk our respective beginnings, and to give you some insight in what we want in watches. The meat and potatoes of the episode is a "fantasy draft" of sorts, where each show picks a line-up of affordable watches, coming in at or under $500, in four categories: Dress, Sports, Everyday, and Beater. Which lineup do you like better? Hit us up on IG to tell us why. We had a blast, and we hope you enjoy it!
