EPISODE 13:
The guys are back after some time away, swapping stories from recent adventures. We love having the flexibility to step away, reconnect with loved ones, and come back with tales to tell.
Marc shares his first-ever kayaking trip off Vancouver Island—complete with a close encounter with seals. Aaron and his family head to New York City, where (luckiest guy ever) he manages to fit in some watch adventures, including a great experience at Grand Seiko that redeems the story from the previous episode. Along the way, Teri discovers a special watch—stay tuned for a future episode on that one.
Aaron also gives a mini review of his new-to-him Grand Seiko, which arrived just before the trip. It proved to be the perfect companion for a week of NYC views, a Broadway show, great food, and reconnecting with friends.
We recorded this episode in person at Aaron’s kitchen table—the very spot where the podcast idea was born! The setup was a little different this time, so you might notice a few audio quirks. But trust us: it’s all about the stories, and we’re thrilled to share them with you.
