The Worn & Wound Podcast

Happy new year! For this first episode of the Worn & Wound podcast in 2026, the team is here to check in on what they did over their winter break. Zach Kazan hosts Liam O’Donnell and Myra Shallan to discuss all the watch related and non-watch related shenanigans they got up to over their time off. Liam and Myra both ventured outside of New York City to visit friends and family, while Zach hunkered down, turned off notifications on every device, and watched a bunch of movies. No surprise there! This is a fun conversation with lots of little tangents about traveling with watches, vintage watch collecting, public transit, and maybe even a spirited conversation about Mr. Wonderful himself.To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.

This week on the podcast, Zach Kazan welcomes Sam Amis to the podcast to talk about the intersection between pocket knife and watch enthusiasm. Sam is a Worn & Wound contributor, industrial designer, and knife and EDC industry veteran. He just wrote an article that seeks to show in a very specific way the ways in which the knife and watch worlds overlap from the perspective of a designer. Sam has a lot of thoughts on the things that bind these communities together, and it was a pleasure to chat with him. Garrett Jones, Worn & Wound’s photographer who entered the watch community through the EDC world, also joins the podcast to provide his perspective as an enthusiast in both communities. To stay on top of all new episodes, you can subscribe to The Worn & Wound Podcast on all major platforms including Apple Podcasts, Stitcher, Spotify, and more.
