The Grey NATO – 267 – The Deep Track With Blake Buettner
This episode features a special guest who has been on TGN in the past but never for a solo chat – it’s our good pal Blake Buettner. Blake is a Hodinkee alum, part of the team that built StockX, and was the Managing Editor for Worn & Wound (and you may remember him from our live WindUp Chicago episodes). Recently, he branched out on his own with a new project called “The Deep Track.”
The TGN boys invited Blake on the show to talk about old times, watches, diving, and his plans for The Deep Track. A big thanks to Blake for coming on the show!
Stay in the mix for a Final Notes – with Blake – that will have you singing about whiskey, rebuilding old Land Rovers, and thinking like a scout.
