O'Malley is one of those people who every time you see him you wonder,

why don't I spend more time with this guy?

He has a warmth and a curiosity that find their way into absolutely everything he does.

You might know him from the blog he founded, Giga Ome, or maybe

from his current position as a partner at True Ventures, a venture capital firm in San Francisco,

but Ome is also a passionate watch collector and

photographer and he's extremely thoughtful about everything he does. Our

founder and CEO Ben Clymer and I had a chance to sit down with our friend Ome a few weeks ago in San Francisco,

and the conversation went a lot of different directions, all of them good.

I'm your host Stephen Pulmerant, this is Hodinke Radio. This week's episode is brought to you by Tudor. Stay tuned later in the show for a look at the Heritage Black Bay Corona, a new take on one of Tudor's most iconic watches. You can also learn more at tutorwatch.com.

Thanks so much for joining us at home. It's really good to have you have you here this

week or I guess for us to be here with you in San Francisco. That's right. We've known

each other kind of a while and I met you through Ben actually but when was the first time you guys met?

It's been a while. It's been maybe a little too long?

Yeah. Too long.

It was Ben was still a boy with the blog.

That's very true.

And then we, I think we started communicating, I was a fan of Giga Ome obviously and I think we started communicating on

Twitter first back when Twitter was a thing that tells you how long ago it was and

then we were both in Paris one December I think think you were there for Le Webb, I believe,

which is the greatest name for a conference

of the Web.
