You all are costing me a fortune! Love the podcast❤️
I honestly don’t care pretty much at all about pens, but that makes this podcast perfect to fall asleep to. They have a massive back catalogue and their banter is a perfect balance between lightly funny but nothing too crazy, important, or exciting.
I am currently addicted to the company Moleskine because they make amazing pens and notebooks I recently had a look at fountain pens by them and I know there expensive ( 27.50 ) but I want to get one!!
Long time listener, first time reviewer. I very seldomly leave reviews, but wanted to thank you both for your transparency and vulnerability on ep. 640. The world needs more of this, especially from men. I have so many other thoughts on the topic (I’ve typed and deleted half a dozen already) but suffice it to say, thanks for letting us in. Love you guys.
Yuck! There plenty of political podcasts. Don’t make this pen podcast another one.
