This is Old School, and here we have an appreciation for old school quality craftsmanship, how things used to be made.
Today's sponsor is doing exactly that.
VAER, that's V-A-E-R, was founded in Los Angeles with a mission to revive American watchmaking.
And they've actually pulled it off.
VAER is now the largest independent watch assembler in the U.S., building watches across California,
Arizona, Rhode Island, and Alabama, with leather straps made in Illinois and Florida.
I absolutely love the watch these guys sent me.
It's beautifully made and it feels substantial on my hand.
It genuinely lives up to the reputation they've built.
VAER has over 10,000 five-star reviews, and once you wear one, you're going to understand why.
I get compliments on it all the time.
If you're tired of disposable products and want something rugged, timeless, and thoughtfully made, check them out.

Hey, y'all, we have a really special episode for you today.
We joined our friends at the Jack Miller Center in Philadelphia for a live recording
in honor of America at 250. The setting was the National Constitution Center,
which was the perfect venue for my conversation with Jon Meacham, a Pulitzer Prize winning historian
and biographer of presidents whose work illuminates the principles at the heart of the American story.
