This week on aBlogtoWatch Weekly, Rick, Ariel, David, and Ripley tackleanother full slate of watch talk and industry laughs. The crew opens with thelatest missteps in media watch coverage before getting hands-on with thestriking Zenith Defy Zero-G in blue sapphire. From the return of Las Vegas as ahub for luxury watch events to an engaging look at Breguet's legacy andtechnical mastery, they explore the craftsmanship behind iconic movementsand the enduring influence of historic innovation on modern watchmaking. Thefour also untangle the age-old mix-up between chronographs and chronometers,proving that while one measures time and the other measures accuracy, confusionbetween the two might just be the most consistent complication in watchcollecting. When Rick reads a YouTube comment claiming that watch collectingisn't a hobby, Ariel fires back with a passionate, red-hot defense that turnswhat started as a casual jab into a full-blown debate about obsession,identity, and why passion for watches is anything but casual. Between specifieddefinitions, rants, and confessions of “it's not an addiction, it's aninterest,” the team finds humor in just how seriously enthusiasts take theirso-called pastime. If you enjoy smart banter, watch nerdery, and the kind ofchemistry only this team can deliver, then tune into this week's episode andjoin the conversation.0:00 Start[00:01:06] Weekly "Clapage": The team discusses a reader-submitted find from the London Times, which featured an article on the "hottest designs for autumn 2025" but mistakenly used a picture of a vintage Tag Heuer triple calendar moonphase instead of the new Carrera Astronomer.[00:08:43] Las Vegas Watch Scene: Ariel is excited about the revival of Las Vegas (JCK and Couture) as a major destination for watch events in the United States, reminiscing about the days before Baselworld's decline.[00:15:14] Hands-On: Zenith Defy 50G Blue Sapphire: The group discusses Ariel's hands-on with the 46mm blue sapphire Zenith, featuring the unique "ZeroG" gimbal-style mechanism designed to keep the balance wheel horizontal.[00:23:08] Show Within a Show: RantIn response to a YouTube comment ("It's not a hobby"), Ariel delivers a rant defending watch collecting as the very definition of a hobby, citing the time spent learning, socializing, trading, and building.[00:30:50] Show Within a Show: Brand SpotlightBreguet: The team discusses the immense historical importance of Abraham-Louis Breguet, his foundational inventions (tourbillon, overcoil), and the brand's modern struggles and triumphs in living up to that legacy.[00:38:39] Show Within a Show: 101 CornerChronograph vs. Chronometer: A foundational discussion explaining that a Chronograph is a watch with a stopwatch function, while a Chronometer is a watch certified for its high accuracy (e.G., by COSC). They also discuss good entry-level mechanical chronographs, like those with the Valjoux 7750 movement.[00:50:44] "What You Like" Game: Scottish CuisineLorn Sausage (Square Sausage): Compared to the Hublot Square Bang.Rumble Thumps (Potatoes, Cabbage, Cheese): Likened to a G-Shock (a reliable side dish to a collection) or a Rolex Datejust (a comforting classic).Haggis: The consensus lands on the Rolex 1908 "Land Dweller"—a watch with a bad reputation (or name) that is surprisingly good once you experience its high-quality movement.[01:07:02] Next Week's Topic: Classic horror movies (The Thing, Nightmare on Elm Street, Gremlins).[01:08:19] Wrist ChecksAriel: Casio G-Shock 30th Anniversary Neon Genesis Evangelion.Ripley: Casio 2100 series ("CasiOak") with a green dial.David: Bulgari Octo Finissimo with a copper/salmon dial.[01:10:44] Hit, Miss, MaybeBreguet 7225 Urwerk UR10 Space Meter:

This week, we're diving into two wild corners of the cult world: the modern, media-savvy Ahmadi Religion of Peace and Light and the snake-handling, strychnine-drinking Church of God with Signs Following.

Buckle up for cults, chaos, and cold Utah shade.
ABOUT THIS EPISODEIf your calendar's been bossing you around, babe, this is your reset. In today's episode of Confident & Empowered Women, I'm walking you through how to style your week to match your standards—not your stress. We're keeping it capacity-led, we're time-blocking on purpose, and we're building a schedule that actually supports your energy, your priorities, and your peace.I'll show you how to protect your bandwidth, lock in the real needle-movers, and carve out deep work, meetings, and self-care—without flirting with burnout. We're clearing calendar clutter, saying no to those “urgent” but misaligned asks, and adding buffer zones (hello, pit stops) so you can breathe, lead, and show up like the main character of your life.By the end, you'll have a simple rhythm you can repeat weekly—a life that feels as good on the inside as it looks on the outside. Calm nervous system. Clear priorities. Results that reflect who you're becoming. Crown on. Let's design it.KEY TAKEAWAYSCapacity First, Commitments Second. Plan your week around energy and focus—not other people's urgency.Busyness ≠ Productivity. A full calendar can still be empty of impact; protect deep work and recovery.Boundaries Are Strategy. Saying no (or “not this week”) is how you safeguard peace and create results.Design, Don't Drift. Do a quick weekly calendar audit: remove, delegate, batch, then block your best hours.CHAPTERS00:00 Introduction: Aligning Your Schedule with Your Standards00:33 Welcome to Confident and Empowered Women01:08 Calendar Overhaul: Protecting Your Energy01:46 The Three F's to Fabulous Fashion for Your Calendar01:56 Fit: Capacity Led Planning04:08 Fabric: Protected Time Blocks07:31 Finish: Starting and Ending Your Day Right08:58 The Peace and Power Two-Step Framework14:19 Saying No: Protecting Your Energy15:04 Conclusion: Designing Your Life for Peace and PowerTHE PEACE + POWER 2-STEPWhen you're styling your week, think of it as the Peace + Power 2-Step—the ultimate framework for a schedule that feels good and gets results.STEP 1: PROTECT YOUR PEACEClear the noise—those draining, misaligned tasks that don't serve you. Create room for what you actually want by eliminating calendar clutter. This is boundaries in action: saying no to energy leaks and designing your week with intention. It's like cleaning that corner of your closet—instant relief and spaciousness.Ask: What drains me? What disrupts my flow? Audit your calendar and tag items to Remove, Delegate, Batch, or Boundary. Protect peace with:Self-care blocks (movement, rest, therapy, prayer)Buffer zones between meetings (Pit Stops—shoutout Brendon)No last-minute adds unless it's a true emergency (spoiler: most aren't)Main Character Energy Moment: Ask, “What would the most peaceful version of me do this week?” Design your calendar from her standards.STEP 2: ACTIVATE YOUR POWERWith peace protected, place your power moves. Block Deep Work in your prime focus hours, batch admin in one window, and stack meetings into dedicated days. Give every block a one-line outcome so you know what “done” looks like. End each day with a 5-minute Tomorrow Setup (top 3, prep, wrap).

Alice Winocour's Couture is a backstage film about the fashion world — less about the clothes than the bodies who wear them, shape them, and photograph them. It's a film about the ways that commerce and fashion (and medicine) shape and damage women's bodies. As a Winocour fan and researcher since 2015, Alex Heeney connects Couture to Winocour's explorations of traumatized bodies, outsiders, and backstage stories throughout her body of work.

Tchao Pantin, un film dramatique français de Claude Berri, sort en décembre 1983. A lʹécran, Coluche, Richard Anconina, Agnès Soral et Philippe Léotard. Coluche, habitué de la scène, humoriste phare des années 80, trouve ici son premier rôle non comique dans lʹadaptation du roman dʹAlain Page. Il campe un pompiste alcoolique et dépressif, ancien policier, décidé à venger la mort dʹun jeune trafiquant de drogue avec lequel il sʹétait lié dʹamitié. Le tournage est éprouvant pour Coluche qui traverse une mauvaise passe dans sa vie. Mais il trouve la force dʹaller puiser dans ses soucis pour donner de lʹampleur à son rôle. Il se montre excellent, blessé et grave, cynique, et émouvant. Le public, comme la critique, acclament le film. Cʹest un énorme succès public, nommé dans douze catégories aux Césars 1984. Tchao Pantin récolte 5 récompenses dont celle du meilleur acteur pour Coluche. Aujourdʹhui, dans Travelling, cʹest en suivant la musique de Charlélie Couture, les images glauques de Bruno Nuytten, lʹambiance nocturne, presque bleue, avec ses frémissements de néon, son trio dʹacteurs principaux, Coluche, inattendu, Anconina fragile, Agnès Soral provocatrice, tendre et brisée, que nous allons plonger dans ce film phare des années 80. Nous avons Tchao Patin, un film sur la tolérance, sur la vie, la mort, les idéaux, lʹamour paternel, la tranquillité généreuse et le drame. Ne tardons plus, Lambert est pompiste à Belleville. Il vit seul, travail seul, boit seul, enfermé dans sa misogynie et son silence, jusquʹà ce quʹarrive Bensoussan, un soir, avec son vélomoteur.

This week we travel to the world of Haute Couture in a conversation with couture historian Robert Ossant and embroidery artist and interior designer Jessica Jane Pile. They have combined their vast knowledge, experience, and talents to write an upcoming book, “The Art of Couture,” available Nov. 2025. You can pre-order it now from the usual book sources.

In our Part two we welcome back our glamorous friend, Crystal Kung Minkoff—Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum, digital entrepreneur, and co-host of the Humble Brag Podcast. From Beverly Hills to Aspen, no topic is off-limits as they peel back the designer layers of fame, friendship, and family. Housewives Highs & HindsightsCrystal candidly opens up about her time on RHOBH, revealing she felt embarrassed to fully lean in and often tried to hide from the spotlight. She reflects on how the experience taught her the power of owning her narrative—something she now embraces in podcasting and digital ventures without shame. Hollywood & Bling Empire GossipPatrik digs into Crystal's social circle, including Christine Chiu of Bling Empire, who almost joined RHOBH before choosing Netflix glitz instead. Crystal shares how family health issues kept Christine off Bravo—and why she respects the decision not to exploit real-life struggles for ratings. Parenting in the Digital AgeThe conversation turns heartfelt as Crystal explains why her kids still don't have phones—only Apple Watches—and how social media's toxicity drives her protective instincts. Patrik counters with hilarious stories of tracking their foster daughter's location and the day she vanished…only to FaceTime them from a restaurant in Aspen after hopping a private jet with Nicolas Cage's son. Runway Rundown & Reunion FashionsThe group plays their signature Runway Rundown, dishing on RHOBH reunion looks. Patrik roasts Garcelle Beauvais'pearl mesh dress—revealing Bravo forced a last-minute wardrobe change after Sutton wore a similar color, canceling Garcelle's custom Swarovski-beaded nude gown Pol' spent nights creating. Crystal admits she prefers understated elegance and reveals her own reunion look: a deep green lace cocktail dress by Yannick Machado, paired with an enormous 30-carat Indian ring (sadly, just on loan!). Celebrity Style & Designer DramaThey also weigh in on Erika Jayne's infamous gold mesh gown by Marco Marco—especially Erika's dismissive “some designer” remark that sparked outrage in the fashion world. Patrik shares insights about dressing Beyoncé, Cardi B, and the tricky politics of costume and design. Personal Revelations & Body ImageCrystal bravely discusses her history with an eating disorder and body dysmorphia, explaining how showing cleavage on TV was a huge step in reclaiming her self-esteem. Pol' and Patrik shower her with praise, reminding her she's every bit a supermodel. Coffee Reading MagicThe episode crescendos with Pol's Armenian coffee reading. He sees unresolved tension with someone close—a betrayal that split a friend group. Crystal resonates instantly, recalling a fallout that divided her social circle. Pol' guides her through a ritual to release the energy. Crystal is visibly moved, ready to set herself free. Final Thoughts & LaughsAs the episode wraps, Crystal marvels at how accurate the reading felt and jokes about her “simple” life—while wearing a 30-carat ring and couture.
