Malaika being a fan of the Kardashians doesn't surprise me in the slightest.

[@bargaincollector2783]

You could say the same about an average American.

[@Emach76]

Malaika why don’t you tell us about how the culture feels about this watch…“If I hear one more person go on about the price, I’m literally going to shut down”. “it’s $1500.00, it’s not that big of a deal. I don’t care”. She is sooooo in touch with the culture…wow

[@RinMagoo22]

Absolutely brutal listen

[@josips4281]

Malaika is spot on ✌🏻

[@watchclog2979]

Always cool to see Malaiks views - really enjoy the different angle! And yes, I’m the 40 something year old man commenting 😅

[@Sneakerboxclyde]

The KITH / TAG conversion is interesting. Clearly this collaboration wasn’t meant for people who were buying the original in the 90s for like $250. It’s a collaboration with KITH (a fashion brand). LVMH / TAG are clearly engaging with a younger customer who’s willing to pay a premium for a very limited watch collaboration with a very successful brand. I applaud Frederic and the powers that be for pulling this off.

Rich is under used on Hodinkee's content, bring him back to the fold and reference points.

[@BoogieWithU]

Malaika “Eye Roll” Crawford. No shade, just find it humorous. Love the episodes btw!

[@jcg5280]

Just love these episodes!

[@pob6000]

The new drinking game is the over/under on the "Quote unquote" quote...

[@fl8819]

1500 bucks not a big deal? Come on Hodinkee. You know better. 😂

[@dakaraindoro8346]

Can’t say I agree with Malaika’s takes on AP or Tag Collaboration here.

[@RunningFast]

Go Malaika telling LVMH what's up 🤣😂

[@johnd-xd9sn]

TAG collaboration with a street-style clothing company just ruined my view on TAG…terrible decision

[@yamilisaias1531]

Malaika, Malaika, and more Malaika…she is really refreshing to here and see.

[@cecedabo]

🤣🤣

For a brand called "the watchmaker's matchmaker" JLC have hardly made any new models or calibres over the last decade. JLC need to get out of that Richemont cage and spread its wings a bit.

[@derosa1989]

JLC is all about Reverso. If you look at the Richemont strategy, it's about putting all the brands in their own box, and not spreading their wings.

[@alectang1614]

@@derosa1989 yes, absolutely. Look at the Duometre, they hadn't touched that model for a decade; the new ones are basically the exact same with worse finishing and a new rounder case that copies a TAG Heuer Glassbox crystal. I've heard that JLC are now even reducing boutique prices too... Just lol.

[@cunibucus96]

Total L on that Kith x Heuer reissue. I think a mass F1 rerelease would've introduced so many people into the Heuer brand.

[@cdm765]

Absolute trash.

[@ryanmurphy7422]

First time I've heard Malaika. Genuine question: she comes across as pretentious, arrogant, and miserable. Is that truly the case? Seems to be very knowledgeable otherwise

[@melissasmess2773]

Not interested in anything over fifteen minutes 👋🏻

[@themrgumbatron]

Nice thoughts on the heritage 1931 Tony.

[@HRM.H]

Look forward to this episode.
