A fun game with Andrew Morgan

On episode 2 of the Anachronist, I put @AndrewMorgan in a tough spot. For those of you not going to windup, here's a Convo with the legend himself.

Interviewing Marshall from wrist watch revival next, let me know what I should ask him 🤔

I enjoy these conversations. Expand the time limits a bit. Our attention span is more than 14 minutes.

Fun video, good job on thoae collaboratins

Hey Max, I’m listening and only about two minutes in.

As a content creator, I would suggest the background music is too loud. It competes with the dialog. And it’s not especially interesting music - very much “your call is very important to us your estimated hold time is” music.

Which is a shame as everything else you do in your videos is great.

I really dislike Panerais…too big, crown guard is terrible..all that. But I love to hear what people like about watches I don’t like, sometimes it makes me reevaluate. I might be able to get onboard with a Panerai when viewed as answering the question “how would the Italians solve this problem?”

Cheers.

Speak for yourself, most of us…is that a bird over there?

Right. Like the Ruskies and their space pencil.

Great banter. I agree with Aurelian, I think we can survive longer takes.

I’d wanna ask Marshall exactly how much just his tools cost (minus oils, and cleaning solutions, and whatnot) just so I can definitely say no to myself when I think about getting into restoring my own pieces.

Great idea. Keep em coming!

Somebody get @AndrewMorgan a map of the 🇺🇸 , NYC to Seattle is a bit of a journey…. 😂 after what looked like a great event in New York.

Hey Max love your videos!

Thats so funny, im a neurologist too! (Epileptologist in LA) - its hilarious cause I always watch these youtube videos and do a double take whenever someone says “horologist” that I mishear for neurologist, but this was the one time it was real loll

No way! Localize the leison

I actually may have picked the Seiko over the Rolex, wait I've already done that.

It was great to meet you @Max and thank you for having me on the show, it was great fun 😄

Great to see two legends together. Definitely could have been longer.

@AndrewMorgan is too nice to play the game as I bet he wants to marry them all.

I agree, the time flew by and wanted more. Nice topic - f/m/k, but you could've transitioned to one more topic easily and I hope you would've lost listeners. You, @Max, have the data and I'm sure there are people where this is the sweet spot.

I heard the hesitation in your voice of repeating the f/m/k title, so you should've explained the Brit version! Shag, marry, kill, is how I learnt it from my time in the UK!

Really enjoyed your and Max's content as always.

Maybe you should've done philosophy in uni instead of civil engineering! You seem to like ruminating on things.

·

Guess I'm gonna be the only one to say this, but — as much as I absolutely love hearing Andrew's thoughts — the premise was offensive. I only watched the first couple of minutes. Obviously, the demographics of this site don't match the general population, but if they did, this video might have lost you half of your users.

It definitely left enough of a bad taste in my mouth for me to reconsider whether I wanted to spend any more time on this site. Coming back after 24 hours and finding no one else here has expressed the same concerns has only reinforced that feeling. Not sure I'll ever come back.

Do you know what, I was so thrown by having to choose a watch I didn’t like from three great watches I forgot there was a British version 😅

I suppose I didn’t realise I liked to ponder until a bit later on in life and now I’m too embroiled in things to make a vocation of it!

You got that right! 😅

Am I the only one reading @AndrewMorgan comments in Andrew Morgan’s voice?

I cannot be the only one….

Yup. Again in your voice.

Best interview yet. M/F/K with @AndrewMorgan is amazing but not sure I’d want him to roast my collection. Keep working with the trainer man, you’ll have an 8in wrist in no time.

How am I just finding out that @Max is a neurologist?! How did you escape the American medical grind? (Asking for a friend)

As long as you don’t force me to roast it like @Max did, you’re probably alright 😂

Thanks! Just bury your empathy in a sea of stress and insomnia, and find a second career when you get burned out 😉

Great video and guest! Now that you have a personal trainer ( you've mentioned a few times) do you plan to gift a watch when you hit some fitness goals? Maybe gently wein him/her off that fitbit into something we all call a watch? GShock for starters? Or maybe a sports watch that you can actually do lapse in?

What defines the fitness goal ? Stick with me it's watch related ...

Now Walter was in shape but he wasn't a big guy.

Maybe This?

Or maybe this?

Hi Max,

I would also like to add that as an advanced diver, that crown protector suddenly made sense to me, as coral is soooo hard, that if your wrist hits against coral this is a great idea, . For a long time I thought it was just a pretentious thing, (duh) its for the Navy, and for Divers in general I think this is a good idea.

I agree, and I think at best it was in poor taste, and at worst it was offensive. I was genuinely shocked. I didn't care much for the format, and I find our fearless leader's other content much more interesting and tasteful.
