#58: Gary Shteyngart - "People ask me to sign their watch straps"


For episode 58 of the Time 4A Pint Podcast, I got together with New York Times best selling Author, and spectacular watch nerd, Gary Shteyngart.

Born in Leningrad in 1972, Gary moved to New York at the age of 7. Which is where he was last week, when we jumped on a long distance line to talk about seven of the watches from his collection, angry people on the internet, and his most recent novel, Lake Success.

You can find pictures and reference numbers of all the watches that we talked about, along with lots of helpful show notes, on the page below.
