This extra-special episode was recorded live in front of an amazing audience at this past weekend’s Toronto Timepiece Show. With so many friends and TGN alums in attendance, Jason and James thought it would be fun to call up folks from the audience for a short chat. The voices include Jason Hutton (the man behind the Toronto Timepiece Show), V.J. Geronimo (CEO of the Americas for Oris), Jason Gallop (a watchmaker and owner of Roldorf & Co), Ken Lam (the man behind Arken Watches), Eric Ricioppo (of Rico’s Watches Podcast and Sketchy Boyz Watch Club), and Michael Pearson (who introduced Jason and James back in the day and now works with Christopher Ward).
Each guest got a few minutes to chat, and then Mike Pearson stayed on for a quick round of Q&A with the audience. A huge thank you from Jason and James to everyone who found some time to chat with us, everyone who came to the show and the live taping, and James’ mom for opening the show like a pro.
It was an excellent weekend for TGN in Toronto, and we’re already getting excited about the Vancouver Timepiece Show in April 2025. We hope to see you there!

Apologies for bringing this up but the audio does not seem to be in stereo. One can only hear the sound in one speaker which when using headphones or earbuds is pretty strange.
