The Worn & Wound Podcast - Podcast Rankings and reviews

I have been listening to the Worn & Wound podcast for a long time and have enjoyed their content. The reviews and topics are often salient and entertaining for watch enthusiasts and they frequently have good guests. Unfortunately the sound mixing is terrible, with the hosts being extremely quiet while guests speak at normal expected volume. Since Blake Buettner became the host, this has gotten more noticeable and distracting as his vocal fry and volume drops render him inaudible. Zach Weiss is also similarly soft spoken but still audible, while Zach Kazan is the only one who remains audible through the whole podcast. The gain really needs to be turned up on their microphones and Blake needs to try to speak up and maintain louder volumes instead of swallowing his words. This is maddening and detracts from an otherwise solid podcast.

I really liked the content of the shows, but it could be better if they had links to different watches mentioned in the show. It really helps when the links are organized by time mentioned in the show and helps a listener follow the discussion.

I’ve been a listener since the first show aired. The show has come a long way since then. A must subscribe for anyone interested in watches. Thanks for the content and thanks for the hard work!

Thank you worn and wound. I’ve had a tough time finding a watch podcast that was not catered to simply high end luxury watches or marketing of micro brands. I used to enjoy other watch podcasts but found them either immature in both language and condescending behavior. Not everyone is a a trust fund New Yorker or Asian millionaire shopping boutiques. Some of us just love watches low, mid, and high-tiered. Also, loved the conversation with the Tenn and Two ladies who closed with “wear what you love” Keep it up!

I really want to rate this podcast higher, as I think the content is actually pretty good. It’s just... a few things... that really, over time, start to bother the listener to the point where the content is lost and one is just left thinking what could have been. I’m not sure if it’s an audio leveling issue or just a breathing/vocal habit, but Blake Beuttner’s voice becomes quite distracting over time. His voice has a tendency to fade quickly and then recover with his next breath. It becomes an issue as you can’t hear what he’s saying at times and then when you do, it’s sudden/jerky. It’s very distracting. And as the others speak (both Zachs), you can actually hear the loud clicking and scrolling of someone’s mouse. Again, it becomes so distracting so quickly that it detracts from the actual conversation.
