Hello and welcome to another episode of the Grey NATO, a Hodinkie podcast.

It's a loose discussion of travel, diving, driving, gear, and most certainly watches.

This is episode 122, and we thank you for listening.

James, it feels like it's been a while since we talked.

I don't know why that is.

I guess we're kind of looping into this new

bi-monthly format now and it just seems like it's been been ages yeah it does kind

of and I think especially because the last episode didn't really have you know it was it was amazing episode with

with Fabian and you know thank big thanks again to Fabian for being on the show but

it didn't have our normal we didn't have our normal hour hour and a half of true. Of chatting and kind of catching up. We you know we kind of compress that into into a little piece before the show. Yeah, yeah. But yeah, it's I think the new format's going fine. I'm excited to get a you know when people are listening to this that will be pushing in towards the end of of August certainly and then right around the end of the month maybe in the first couple

of days of September we'll also have our next Q&A episode which will get us to the three

episodes a month which we had talked about in the past but beyond that you know beyond

the beyond the format change how have things been the last couple weeks for you?

Oh pretty good it's all sort of blurring together it's hard to believe it's the

it's the end of the summer I mean it's like here in the

states we've got Labor Day coming up next in like two weeks and then that's kind of

of the kickoff of fall it's it's the August has flown. Sure has. Yeah, but you know it's it's

been good. We because Shawnee and I got up north for kind of our annual visit to this shipwreck we dive up on the north shore of Lake Superior,

which was a really great day that was last Sunday, I guess it was, and got some great photos

and just enjoyed some really perfect shore diving weather.

It was pretty flat water conditions and a little too warm topside for suiting up into a dry suit, but hauling gear from the car down to the

I've been there down to the beach, but you know.
