For episode 63 of the Time 4A Pint Podcast, I got together with Toronto based Justin Mastine-Frost. Outgoing editor in chief of watchuseek.com and fitrated.com, and brand new Director of Digital Content for Sharp Magazine, Canada’s foremost luxury publication.

Justin and I first got to hang out in November of 2020, when he and fellow guest Aldis Hodge  joined me and Mat for our 15th Virtual GTG (which you can check out on YouTube). Justin was not messing about that day, and brought some serious horological heat, in the form of an Arnold and Son Nebula.

Which as anyone who’s scrolled through Justin’s Instagram account will tell you, is just one fascinating piece in a hugely varied collection that spans high end to affordable, and mainstream to independent.

I had no idea what Justin was going to bring along today, but I knew that whatever it was, it would be interesting. And colourful. Or grey. Or both.

For episode 62 of the Time 4A Pint Podcast, I got together with fellow talkative Englishman, and pathological contrarian, Phil Toledano. Who you may know from Instagram as Mister Enthusiast.

The topics we covered were many and varied. Including, but not limited to: buying and maintaining group B rally cars, ram raids, Vietnam era pilot’s helmets, the joy of putting your kid’s face onto plates, pillows, and tote bags, how weird and wonderful it is to be a Dad, Birman cats, Mr Frumples the dog, great TV Shows we’re currently watching, the Jaguar XJ220, running a lifestyle clothing brand, watch sausage parties, how instagram can be a rather dull unimaginative echo chamber, turning Rolexes into art, collecting Patek’s from the 70s, buying the things that you really like, and the importance of a test tube filled with oil. These intro’s are getting weirder aren’t they?

For episode 61 of the Time 4A Pint Podcast, I got together with nomadic Irishman, and owner of Brooklyn’s Iona Bar, Victor Boyd, who you may know from Instagram, as PapillonVic.

We talked about buying Rolex Submariners for £295, working in high end restaurants in London and Paris and opening one in Manhattan, selling an entire collection to pay the bills when the world changed on September 11, and starting over in Brooklyn with a very cool neighbourhood bar called Iona. Diving with watches, changing beer barrels with watches, buying vintage, meeting independents, and being tipped off to a spectacularly uncommon, and tough as nails JLC by a former NFL player.

There is a lot going on in this episode.

So grab your headphones, pour yourself a drink that is time-of-day appropriate, and enjoy.
