ZbodieEnjoyableI’m just getting into watches and I dig this show. The two hosts have personalities that couldn’t be more different but I think they balance each other out. This is a refreshing break from some of the other watch podcasts out there that are dragging and stuffy. I also enjoy that they talk about watches that people in the real world can actually afford.
-
Puro TrashNo ClassIf you’re looking for a watch podcast that has no class you’ve found it. Go listen to The Grey Nato or HODINKEE if you want some ear candy with actual style. This should be called One Smart Guy and One D-Bag who swears too much.
-
Frank in Denver COToo much watch talkMore diversions. I like watches but they are basically useless.
-
zach the goldfishMy true north in horologyA show that cuts through the noise and advertising to give you a more balanced perspective on what is important in a watch.
-
Chris8708Good showThe show would be awesome If Kaz stopped saying neckbeard because he is one himself. Also, begging Michael to move to Florida to be close to you multiple times an episode is cringy dude.
-
cleavelandoKaz is a God among menJust kidding, Mike’s cool but Kaz leaves a cigarette butt taste in my ears.
-
maine.manHear two fun people who happen to like watches talkThis is a show about the woes of daily life and self-deprecating humor between two guys who also happen to like watches. Occasionally they also have an entertaining guest fill in for one of the hosts. If you want a podcast that is purely about watches, this might not be the show for you.
-
tallhawk24Love this show!!!This show is amazing, both of you guys really click. I wouldn’t change a thing. Thank you for not talking about Apple Watches they are overrated.
-
#drunkontacosNot enough talk about Apple watches.Seriously. There needs to be more Apple and Galaxy Watch reviews. Also, not enough cargo pants talk. Where are the car reviews. Michael is okay, but listening to Kaz is like listening to Lady Gaga and the Elephant Man discussing genocide. Also, who cares about all those Seiko GShocks? BOOOOOOOOORING! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ The podcast could be improved by including kittens.
-
motosactoExactly as advertisedIt’s meandering, random, sometimes a little salty, corny(yes!), and exactly as advertised - bar talk and horological shenanigans. Complaining about either Michael or Kaz is like buying a black t-shirt and leaving a one-star review complaining that it’s not colorful….
-
Mykkus PJust fantasticLove these guys. So much fun mixed with some great takes and solid info. As a guitar junkie hope they continue those comparisons it brings it all together for me. Great fun! Keep it up!!
-
pipe fanNot cornyI like Kaz. Screw all y’all. He brings energy and humor to the pod that it needs to keep me tuned in.
-
JRose_DallasFor a Kaz Bad Week …Kaz is cool, but Michael is a bit corny ….. …. … .. . Carry on y’all. 😉 Awesome show. Cheers from Dallas, JRose
-
Ricky TyTwo friends talkin about watches like regular peopleTBWS was the first watch podcast I ever listened to. A friend who is also into watches told me that watch podcasts exist so I decided to start with this one. I was lucky because this is the best one. I love how funny Mike and Kaz are together and it is so great to hear two (best?) friends talk about a mutual passion. I’ve tried other watch podcasts none provide this level of entertainment or unique insight. Their refreshing ability to not take themselves (or the watch industry) too seriously sets TBWS apart in a sea of value propositions, name dropping, tech talk, and extravagant purchase justifying. TBWS is also the only watch podcast that I’ve heard discuss the pitfalls of consumerism/retail therapy - something that everyone needs to be reminded of in any hobby or interest. Thanks TBWS
-
CleetusTakeTheReelHuh?I am a watch enthusiast and found this pod very slow moving and not compelling. Not a good flow. Sorry fellas, but doesn’t translate well.
-
imgpedMost honest fun and original podcastThe best and most fun of all the horological podcasts out there
-
BulldozerDupesUnnecessary swearingMichael is great but Kaz swears too much, it’s obnoxious. I like listening to podcasts when I’m on long car rides with my family since my wife usually doses off. However, I can’t listen to this with my kids in the back because the profanity is so over the top.
-
CharlieHustle16Good sometimesThe dude with the Russian watch is borderline unlistenable. Yes, it’s a podcast where speaking is essential but he just loves to hear himself speak and he comes off as obnoxious and not in a comedic way.
-
mr shibaIt’s okay.Michael is cool but Kaz is real corny.
-
Gritty67Hugely entertaining and informativeThese guys are a great duo. Kaz and Mike have an awesome chemistry that is uniquely fun. It’s a special show and I hope they continue their coverage of the watch world now and long into the future.
-
bbblahhh77BoringSo boring. I like the one guy, but Kaz’s voice and personality it grating.
-
Milo_3002Informative and entertainingTwo guys talking about what they’re passionate about. I’m not much of a watch guy and I still really enjoy listening due to their humor and passion, I think that says something.
-
Kevin MzrOne of the few non-boring watch podcastsI love TBWS. Their humor and topics are actually unique. I usually am not a fan of most watch podcasts because they are sooooo boring and dry, just a bunch of dudes circle jerking the latest rolex release and talks about watches that the top 1% might care about. NOT TBWS! These guys seem like dudes you’d actually want to hang out with. Other watch podcasts please take note, TBWS knows how to make a entertaining podcast and not just a NPR sounding spec sheet reading crap podcast.
-
pstrepGreat showI am newer to the whole watch game and found these guys while trying to learn more about the hobby. Great show, they make it funny and enjoyable to listen to while actually learning some stuff.
-
Sasquatch JonesGood podcast, a lot of rambling though...The podcast is good, and the hosts are like-able, but they have a BAD habit of going off on very long tangents and 9/10 it’s not even about watches.
-
moralesjuanpaFun timesThese two dudes make me laugh about watches in a way I didn’t think was possible. Also a good way to learn a bit more about horological trends and history.
-
WatchHunter.orgNo other watch collecting podcast like itSeriously, most watch podcasts are too darn serious and somewhat sterile, but not TBWS. These guys are watch nerds who make our watch collecting hobby so much more fun with audacious opinions, hilarious stories, off the subject tangents and great personalities. I could not imagine NOT having my weekly dose of laughs from Mike and Kaz. Oh, and they talk about watches too... who could ask for more? Tune in for the fun... but keep the kiddies out of earshot unless you want to untrain the f-word out of their vocabulary. 😂
-
The Epi Man!Enough with the talk about PatreonLove the podcast but didn’t start talking about watches until 37 minutes in. Sprinkle a couple of 2-3 minute discussions about Patreon or Amazon Affiliate link but no need to talk about them for >30minutes!
-
PopoeaGreat cast on horology.Mike and Kaz bring an unpretentious view of watches and watch culture. Both come at watch collecting and love for watch with a positive vibe. They are proving you don't have to spend thousands to show you love watches. A realistic point of view for all of us that are not millionaires. Bonus they are hilarious. Get informed and get a laugh. -eA
-
Sporkboy42The best watch podcast, but...An honest, unpretentious and unvarnished discussion about watches and the watch industry. My one complaint is that they don’t curse as much as they used to.
-
BKhansciousTwo wild and classy guysOnly watch podcast I can listen to regularly. Smart, funny, and endearingly irreverent.
-
Autism on the goperfect podcasti absolutely love this watch podcast and it ticks all the boxes but the into music is really intense and on my train ride to school at 6 in the morning it’s not the most helpful and also doesn’t really match the tone of the podcast where the podcast is really laid back and informative
-
burritobossLoved the celebrity watch epWould love to see you guys do another one - maybe Cristiano Ronaldo, Mark Wahlberg, Ellen on the reprise?
-
RebelinstNot just another pop-up watch podcastThey’re honest and don’t pull any punches. With all of the random pop-up new watch podcasts lately, it’s nice to come home to the real deal.
-
DHardsBest in horrrrrology!Mike and Kaz have been knocking it out of the park for 2+ years. Great content and really accessible to all crowds. Come for the watch talk, stay for the great banter. They keep watch discussions fun and light. If you are looking for some good old fashioned watch talk... you’ve come to the right place. One of the OGs from the recent slough of watch podcasts.
-
BrooklynWatchGuyLess cursing pleaseto make the show more enjoyable to listen to!
-
Angry pearGreat Weekly ListenI truly enjoy checking in with the guys every week, I feel like I know them by now... and those Scottish guys? Great addition ;)!
-
Good-Ol-JrSo much funI really enjoy Kaz and Mike style, do you know what I mean? You will hear about Mike’s AD adventures, and Kaz’s trip to some Disney property, as well as learning some stuff about watches. Unfortunately, you will be googling watch references and killing your productivity. Alas, that’s part of the fun.
-
mcccreutzzzAwesome and light hearted view on watches.In a world where watches a serious hobby, it’s nice to see people who can add jokes to watches while still being knowledgeable. The show uses humor to relate everyday things to watches and it’s great. Keep the show up forever. It tells about but age and new and most importantly affordable watches. Great show would recommend to new and seasoned collectors.
-
Jim P (NYC)DisappointingHave started listening twice and each time bailed after approx 15 mins. There’s more contrived banter among themselves than there is talk about watches.
-
wagz5427Best Podcast!These guys rock! For people with a love for watches and a tight budget these guys are legit. And they are hilarious!
-
FarliusFuq Da HaterzKaz and Mike, Fuq Da Haterz. Yours Truly, Farlius
-
PhazelagFake cussingLately they have been cussing just to cuss. It sounds fake like they are trying to do it. I love the guys opinions and the content but I only give them a 3 star not five because they spend so much time on tangents and talking about what they are going to talk about. It’s a small annoyance to and otherwise good show.
-
Scott'sTotsComplete watch podcastThese two guys offer great insight in all aspects of watches, watch straps, brands, accessories, etc. They are easy to listen to and discuss affordable watches. They play off each other well with Mike being somewhat level headed and Kaz being half out of his mind, amazing entertainment and information with each episode!
-
Chinese girl's husbandI like Thickness and talk of large wristsThis was a great podcast. I’m new to purchasing analog watches, bought one for business meetings, and then got into it. Found this podcast and it’s right up my alley. Good stuff.
-
gtsderekBest watch podcast out there.Mike and Kaz are a couple of guys who love watches and have fun talking about them. They give an honest take on anything and everything and are their opinions are not paid for.
-
ELWIVHilarious guys who love watchesI am a huge fan of the show. Sure they go on tangents, but that’s what makes the show fun. If you love watches, Two Broke Watch Snobs is a refreshing podcast to listen to.
-
Czech9994839Great, but not perfectYou guys are both intellectual individuals as you’ve demonstrated with your knowledge of watches. However you surely have to have a bigger vocabulary than a 13 year boy that feels the most appropriate word used to describe thing is none other than the f bomb. I mean seriously can we be a little more professional about this?
-
BodhiSativaBlamoThey play roles. Give it up for tbws. Cool as a cucumber, sharp as a whip.
-
VfjdjsisygThe best horological contentMike and Kaz are very passionate and knowledgeable about horology, but it is their down-to-earth and laid back approach that makes this podcast really great. It can be hard to find horological content that is not snooty or pretentious. TBWS is the antithesis of your average cork-sniffing style content. It is a podcast for the everyday person that can’t afford a Richard Mille but still enjoys a quality and affordable timepiece.
