40 and 20: the WatchClicker Podcast

Episode 98 - Interview with Marc of Long Island Watch

In this 98th episode of 40 and 20, we got the awesome opportunity to talk with Marc Frankel, owner of Long Island Watch, about his business, and, perhaps most importantly, his incredible line of Islander watches. Along the way, we talk about YouTube butchery, early 2000s Vampire movies, and scientology.

 

Enjoy!

Episode 97 - Watch Iterations(with Mike Razak)

In this, the 97th Episode we finally get our senior contributor, Mike Razak, onto the show. We attempt to tackle the topics of what constitutes a new watch and are we as consumers being bamboozled by "new" but not new at all watches. We stray here and there but try to talk through what it means for a watch to be new or innovative.

Episode 95 - The Watch(es?) of Everest

In this 95th Episode of 40 and 20, we talk about the watches or perhaps just the singular watch, that summited Everest in 1953 on the wrists of Tenzing Norgay and Edmund Hillary.  If you know anything about the story, you already know that the legend and the facts don't exactly line up, but, with the help of an article by Outdoor Journal author Matthew Knight, we land at a conclusion leaning even further into the conspiracy than we expected. 

Along the way we talk about adventure racing, and (one of?) the greatest rap verse of all time.  

Go here, for Matthew Knight's wonderful article on the topic of Everest Watches (and if you wanna know more, use the google box): https://www.outdoorjournal.com/featured/opinion-editorial/rolex-vs-smiths-which-watch-summited-everest-in-1953-putting-a-controversy-to-rest/

Episode 94 - GFY Watches

In this, the 94th Episode, we dive right into it, sort of, and talk about some GFY (good for you?) watches that have our hearts. 

 

We also talk about some cool new gear that you should almost certainly check out, because you need it.

Episode 93 - Just Some Tool Watches

In this 93rd Episode of 40 and 20, we're talking Tool Watches.  Specifically, some off-the-beaten-path tool watches - not the usual suspects. Along the way, we talk about our new hosting, and how we paid for it (spoiler alert: it was you), and our pending Patreon giveaway!

Episode 92 - Interview with Michael Happe of Gavox Watches

In this 92nd Episode of 40 and 20, we (FINALLY) get a chance to sit down with the aptly named Michael Happe, founder and owner of Gavox Watches. Michael is such a fascinating dude, and Gavox makes a terrific watch.  Although we don't talk a TON about watches, we had an absolute blast, and we think you'll really enjoy hearing from the man himself.  

 

Along the way, we chat beer, aerospace museums in Oregon, killer duty boots, and a outrageously good place to set your butt.

Episode 90 - The Objectively Best Field Watch Under $501

In this 90th Episode of 40 and 20, we attempt to find the objectively best field watch, for under $501 (turns out one of our watches was $500 exactly). As always, we use our standard scoring rubric, which is basically proprietary (i.e. we can’t remember what it was). We also talk about backpacking adventures, how to buy summer gear, and our poison immunities (or lack thereof).
