Welcome to the Jewelry District, a podcast by J.C.K. Today, Rob Bates and Victoria

Gimelsk talked with Jules Kim, owner and designer of Bejewel's jewelry, and Vicki Tovack, author of Ice Cold, a hip-hop jewelry history.

Hey, everyone, welcome to the jewelry district. This is Victoria Gimelski, editor-in-chief of JCPay and J-CK Online.com, calling in from Los Angeles, and I'm with

Rob Bates, news director of J-CK and JCP Online.com calling in from New York City.

How you doing, Rob?

I'm good. You were just here, correct?

I was just there. It was a week ago now. I was there for the Dubai Herology Forum,

which is a watch conference put on by the organizers of Dubai Watch Week, clearly a whole crew

from Dubai, but they put on a really good educational event down in the meatpacking district.

And it was really interesting. I came in and I brought my mom with me and took it as an

opportunity to remind my mom why New York is such a cool city.

She hadn't been since I lived there full time about 15 years ago.

And it was just, you know, September is my favorite time to be in New York.

It's such a lovely.

Very nice.

Yes.

Lovely weather.

And I'm off to Switzerland tomorrow.

I don't know if I mentioned that.

I feel like I've been to Switzerland. I was just there,

and now I'm going back, and I'm a little turned around because by the time people listen to this,

I'll definitely be back. It's the shortest trip ever. I think I'm going to be there for two nights.
