I've been a paddock fan for a long time. It was kind of a luck of the draw thing where I went in and was putting my name on the list at a local DC jeweler.

Didn't really expect anything. They ended up calling me and said that they had a 5726 in the back. You know, like I said, I kind of got lucky.

And this was all happening in the middle of the World Series.

Yes, it was. It was kind of like everything was just being handed to me at

one time. That's that's how people can know you're a real die-hard watch

collector is you're in the middle of the world series and you're going to visit your AD to get off the

wait list for GMTs and Nautilus. Oh, Hey everybody. I'm your host Stephen Pulverin and this is Hod Hodinke Radio. That work from home life

is starting to feel like a new normal and I can't quite decide whether that's a good thing or a bad

thing but either way we've got a really good show for you this week, hopefully to break up some of that monotony.

First up, we're debuting a new segment that we're calling A Week on the Risk Revisited.

I chat with James about his review of the Tudor Black Bay GMT from about a year and a half

ago and he talks about why this watch is still something he thinks about all the time and why it's

a review that you definitely need to see. We also talk a little bit about the watch

madness bracket. Everybody's been asking so we've got a little bit of an update for you

there too. After that our director of video Will Holloway and I chat with Howie

Kendrick. You might remember

Howie from his episode of Talking Watches or you might remember him for playing

second base for the Washington Nationals. He was a huge part of the

Nats runs the World Series last year and even hit the World Series winning home run

in game seven in Houston.

His big year wasn't just limited to baseball,

though.
