  • Dipped back in…glad I did

    This is one of those old skool (with a ‘k’ so you know its cool) podcasts. Just two dudes talking about things they enjoy, find amusing or obsess over. Non of these fancy audible special effects in this show! Just honest to goodness down to earth-ness and that’s how I like it!

  • Good content, volume issues

    This podcast is awesome for anyone into stationery, thinking about journaling, or just trying to be more mindful. Ted and Adam are great hosts, but sometimes their volume levels are way off, which can be a bit annoying depending on where you're listening.

  • The stationery tomfoolery that we all need

    This podcast is one of my absolute favorites! It is my go to when I feel like the world is too sad to hold. The dad(ish) jokes are killer, the stationary reviews are helpful, and I have begun making weird lists in my own books. It never fails to make me smile. 10/10 recommend to anyone looking for some light hearted stationary geek fun! So glad I stumbled upon this gem 💕

  • The best podcast about keeping a pocket notebook

    I could listen to Adam and Ted talk about stationary for hours. In fact, I have, and I dare say I’ll be listening for hours to come.
