| 0:00.0 | If you want to get a group of watch guys worked up, there are two easy words you can whisper to get the sparks flying. |
| 0:06.0 | Apple Watch. Case in point, just go look at the comments on my Instagram post announcing that our review of the new Apple Watch Series 4 had gone live. |

| 0:23.0 | Luckily for me and extension you the listener, |
| 0:26.0 | I work with some folks who are equally opinionated |
| 0:28.0 | and really know their stuff. |
| 0:30.0 | For this episode, I sat down with our founder Ben Climber and our editor-in-chief Jack Forster, |
