ChronoCast
Two British friends host a weekly 'therapy session' for their shared watch-buying addiction, discussing new purchases and collecting habits.
This isn't a show about horological history or technical specs; it's a support group in podcast form. Two self-proclaimed 'watch obsessed idiots' chronicle their weekly battles with temptation, celebrating new acquisitions, dissecting the psychology of a collector, and humorously justifying their latest 'relapse'. The conversation is an authentic, friendly chat about the emotional side of the hobby.
“The 'Watch Addicts Anonymous' framing is its core identity, turning each episode into a confessional about recent purchases. This is physically represented by the 'Bob Ross Official Trophy of Watch Ownership', a bobblehead passed to whichever host most recently caved and bought a new timepiece.”
