In addition to writing for Hodinkee and contributing to its various other channels, I have also been quoted or appeared in other publications, podcasts, and YouTube videos. Below is a sample of these. The podcast appearances are great for hearing more about my professional journey and opinions; the YouTube videos offer a peek into my personal collection; the quotes from publications like GQ, Esquire, L.A. Times, and more are merely there to credentialize myself and prove that while yes, I may have started as a mere Substack, I have garnered some respect from my peers in the watch industry.

Podcasts
In addition to hosting Hodinkee’s podcast every week, I have appeared on several other podcasts. Here are a few:
Openwork by Collective Horology, Is The Watch Industry Dying?
Hairspring Podcast, Rare But Nobody Cares
Inspired Money, Advanced Watch Collecting Techniques
YouTube
I’ve also appeared in a couple of YouTube videos to talk about a few of my own watches.
In June 2024, I was a guest on “Clocked Out,” a channel by Chicago YouTuber and podcaster Tom. Check it out here:
In January 2023, I was a guest on Oak & Oscar’s The Watch Table with Chase Fancher. As I update this page to include the above video, it’s funny to see how some of my “collection” turned over in just 18 months or so. Watch it here:
Auction Catalog Citations
The coolest “press” I receive is when auction catalogs cite articles I’ve written. This has only happened a couple of times, but I’d frame these catalogs if I could:
