Time 2 Calibrate is a watch podcast about WISdom, heavy on experience and light on sensible decisions. What started as three Canadian Watch Idiot Savants comparing notes has evolved into a long-form interview show with collectors, creators, and industry voices. They talk watches, journeys, and the questionable choices that make this hobby so addictive.

    Unfortunately, we experienced our first guest "no-show," and as professional podcasters, we took it in stride and interviewed each other for an hour. In all seriousness, we are far from professional, but we made the best of it. Our guest had an unfortunate scheduling conflict, and we've already rescheduled him for the next episode, as of this writing. In the meantime, please enjoy Brent and Marc shooting the proverbial poop.  Brent's watch: https://www.instagram.com/p/DAvm3OnRVEU/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link&igsh=MzRlODBiNWFlZA== Marc's watch: https://serica-watches.com/en/products/5303-2-diving-chronometer The Calibrated Wrist: https://thecalibratedwrist.com/ Marc's writing on W&W: https://wornandwound.com/author/marc-levesque/ Marc's writing on TCW: https://thecalibratedwrist.com/author/marctime2watch/ Toronto Timepiece Show Tickets: https://am.ticketmaster.com/tolive/buy/totimepiece/sales Link to our community Discord: https://discord.gg/zEy5ThudvA - JOIN THE CONVERSATION Our Instagram Profiles: https://www.instagram.com/time2calibrate/ https://www.instagram.com/marctime2watch/ https://www.instagram.com/timetogo1978/ https://www.instagram.com/calibre321/

    Countless conversations. Hundreds of watches. One incredible community. In this special anniversary episode, we're celebrating two years behind the microphone by looking back at the journey that brought us here. We revisit some of our favorite episodes and memorable moments, reflect on the guests and conversations that left a lasting impression, and, because we can't resist talking watches, we build multiple three-watch collections we'd be thrilled to own. We also dive into listener questions, sharing our thoughts on collecting, the hobby, and everything in between. Most importantly, we take a moment to thank every one of you who has listened, commented, and supported the podcast over the past two years. This show wouldn't exist without this amazing community. Finally, we look ahead to what's next for Time 2 Calibrate, sharing our excitement for the future and what's still to come.

    Rhonda is an author, editor, journalist, filmmaker, thrifter extraordinaire, and our friend. We were so happy when she agreed to sit in the hot seat, I mean, be our guest for this episode. We think you'll really enjoy it, and if you're lucky, you might bump into her at a local watch event near you.  Rhonda's Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/therealrhondariche/ Rhonda's work on Watchonista: https://www.watchonista.com/rhonda-riche/home Covet Garden Home: https://www.amazon.com/Covet-Garden-Home-Inspiration-Telling/dp/1927958113 The Wonderful World of Women's Watches: https://www.amazon.ca/Wonderful-World-Womens-Watches-Beauty/dp/3961716056 Watch Spotting: https://www.amazon.ca/Watch-Spotting-Collectors-Rhonda-Riche/dp/1788843398 Rhonda's appearance on TGN: https://thegreynato.buzzsprout.com/2049759/episodes/17244127-the-grey-nato-331-adventurous-women-their-watches-with-rhonda-riche Rhonda's watch: https://sunrexwatches.com/products/banana-reef Brent's watch: https://www.omegawatches.com/fr-ca/watch-omega-speedmaster-first-omega-in-space-co-axial-master-chronometer-chronograph-39-7-mm-31030405006001 Bob's watch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UGf_bvRhci8 Marc's watch: https://www.tudorwatch.com/en/watches/pelagos/m25600tn-0001 00:14 – Introduction00:48 – Wrist checks02:54 – Rhonda’s brief bio04:35 – Writer, storyteller, curator, or all the above?05:09 – What was the genesis of her career path?06:40 – How her curiosity evolved08:14 – About bringing the community together11:38 – What’s piquing her interest right now14:32 – What does the editor-at-large do?19:24 – What watches say about the wearers23:20 – Standout thrifting scores26:19 – Are there still thrifting deals to be found?30:39 – What makes a watch artistic?37:40 – Designs that have caught Rhonda’s attention39:10 – The watch that captures Rhonda’s personality44:01 – Rhonda’s grail quest47:05 – About Covet Garden Home (book)50:47 – About The Wonderful World of Women’s Watches (book)55:54 – Standout stories from The Wonderful World of Women’s Watches1:01:04 – About Watch Spotting (book)1:12:57 – Chicken or the egg (Reporting or the Ticking)1:18:18 – Do you talk to strangers?1:20:37 – Rhonda’s short films?1:24:48 – Rhonda’s creative process1:28:49 – How the media has changed over the years1:31:48 – Rhonda’s thoughts on AI (we are all doomed)1:38:27 – The Canadian journalist’s perspective1:41:45 – Correcting a misconception1:43:41 – Advice for emerging writers and creators1:47:27 – What’s next for Rhonda?1:48:27 – Thank yous and goodbyes1:50:09 – T2C OUT!
