Hello and welcome to another episode of the Gray NATO of Hidinky podcast. It's a loose discussion of travel, diving, driving gear, and most certainly watches. I'm your host James Stacy. I'm joined by

Jason Heaton. This is episode 94 and we thank you for listening.

Hey Jason, how's it going?

Oh, fighting a bit of a cold here, but hopefully that just makes my voice sound a little

So before we get into the show, I think this is one that you know that's it's our holiday gift guide

We've done these before it was one of our biggest episodes of last year I'm fairly excited about it

But we have a little bit of housekeeping from the top, a few things to get out of the way.

So that starts with a huge thank you for those of you who might have seen on our Instagram.

We recently crossed 1 million downloads and plays.

And that means the world to Jason and I

that this has continued, that the show is growing,

that we're finding new audiences,

and that people are still going back

and listening to some of the older episodes.

So just from the bottom of our hearts and especially, you know, there's such a nice kind of early Christmas gift.

One million plays.

We're proud of it, but we also know that we did not in any way get here without each and every

One of you listening so well we appreciate that a lot

Yeah, yeah, I would echo that and thanks for especially for all the feedback and the positive responses.

I mean, we just feel like we've got this big family behind us and it's been great.

And I'm always amazed to hear people that say,
