World Cool Podcast

On this episode we speak to nobody! It's a solo pod! Topics include F1, Porsche 996 GT3 and Turbo pricing, the Rolex Submariner, and I give some actual thoughts on the manual swapped C43 AMG Mercedes.

This one is watch heavy to start and flows into a discussion of the new LACMA building by Peter Zumthor. Exploration, architecture watch hunting, travel, and the built environment - what do these all have in common? Brian Hardy joins and perfectly describes the through line: Flaneur - an old french term for the urban wanderer.

For this month's episode, we are joined again by Jordan to discuss the World Cool Off Road weekend in Big Bear. In addition to going deep on the Ineos Grenadier, we discuss the diversity of trip vehicles, the different trails, and of course talk watches and camping gear.

We hope you like watches because this episode is all about them! We are joined by Jonathan Clark @taupography, Jordan Marks @jordonia, and Drake Moore @countsunnyhours to discuss the recent Intersect Watch Show and to dive deep into the world of independent and micro watch brands.

On this episode of the World Cool Pod, Katie jumps back in to discuss our new defender 110 and we talk about some recent early summer adventures in Mammoth, Whistler, and Northern California. We also discuss the upcoming World Cool Off Road Trip in August!

Lane Skelton from DWA! and Davis Kinzell aka Dittos_dad join to discuss the DWA! Camping While Awesome rally -- A rally for pre-2000 cars in central CA with a fun twist: camping! We recorded live from the rally where we discussed DWA rallies past and present, RADwood, a whole lot of watches, and the little vignettes you get during a great weekend. Enjoy!

Let's talk watches! On this episode, I am joined by Sean, Ronald, and World Cool veteran Drake to talk about a recent watch get together, a bevy of watches on the podcast table, and even a little watches and wonders. Before we get into watches, we get into some of the endurance adventures this group has gotten into lately -- marathons, ultra runs, the Biltwell 100 Moto race, and yes, there is talk about using a G-shock to time when to eat baby food on a 100 mile run.

On this episode of the World Cool Podcast, Veer joins to discuss our February San Diego Rally. Come listen as we recap a great day out on some of San Diego's best roads. Stay for some extra chat about watches and even gravel bikes?

Professional driver and racing instructor Michael Jantz helps demystify the track day experience by providing tips for your first track day, comparing driving on a track to driving on backroads, and walking through some things we have worked on over the years to make your host a better driver.

On the last episode of the year, Katie joins to talk about the recent off-roading weekend in Joshua Tree. We also reflect on the first year of World Cool Co, and start planning adventures for 2026. Who's in for day hikes, bikepacking, offroading, rallies, and watches??
