Hosted by Devin Pennypacker, each episode uses a shared love of watches as the jumping-off point for deeper conversations about the passions that keep us ticking: collecting, creativity, the outdoors, and the way we choose to explore the world. Along the way, Devin and his guests dive into driving, diving, sailing, photography, content creation, and adventure—plus a few games and hot takes for good measure. New episodes drop every Tuesday morning at 5:30 AM EST with full video episode on YouTube at 10 AM EST.","last_synced_at":"2026-07-07T20:21:06.522347+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/time-well-spent-7682162"},"episode":{"title":"Watch Hot Takes, Longines Hydroconquest, Hodinkee Happy Hour - Ep. 009 w/ Griffin Bartsch","slug":"watch-hot-takes-longines-hydroconquest-hodinkee-happy-hour-ep-009-w-griffin-bartsch","published_at":"2026-03-31T09:30:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/time-well-spent-7682162/watch-hot-takes-longines-hydroconquest-hodinkee-happy-hour-ep-009-w-griffin-bartsch","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/time-well-spent-7682162","url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/f3b90465ca7093afa1ee75495d8e323de16ef38792528255749891d0ef2b60fe/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI1YWE3NGY0Ny04OWNkLTRhMWYtOWQ5Yi1mYmRkNTg4ZDM2MmMiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiIyZDUxOTJhMy0xOTU1LTRmZTAtODI4Ny1iZTczMTlmODA2NzgiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2OTY2NzlmMTAzNDJhYTc1NGFjNDkxODUiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNjljOTE5NjBiMmI1YmJjNjQ5OWFjMDY4L2RldmluLXBlbm55cGFja2Vycy1zdHVkaW8tY29tcG9zZXItMjAyNi0zLTI5X18xNC0yMS01Mi5tcDMifQ==.mp3","audio_url":"https://api.riverside.com/hosting-analytics/media/f3b90465ca7093afa1ee75495d8e323de16ef38792528255749891d0ef2b60fe/eyJlcGlzb2RlSWQiOiI1YWE3NGY0Ny04OWNkLTRhMWYtOWQ5Yi1mYmRkNTg4ZDM2MmMiLCJwb2RjYXN0SWQiOiIyZDUxOTJhMy0xOTU1LTRmZTAtODI4Ny1iZTczMTlmODA2NzgiLCJhY2NvdW50SWQiOiI2OTY2NzlmMTAzNDJhYTc1NGFjNDkxODUiLCJwYXRoIjoibWVkaWEvY2xpcHMvNjljOTE5NjBiMmI1YmJjNjQ5OWFjMDY4L2RldmluLXBlbm55cGFja2Vycy1zdHVkaW8tY29tcG9zZXItMjAyNi0zLTI5X18xNC0yMS01Mi5tcDMifQ==.mp3","summary":"We are doing WATCH HOT TAKES!
