Informative and enjoyable!
I only recently came across this podcast, and I’m writing this review after listening to seven episodes. I live in Japan, but, although I really enjoy fountain pens and stationary, where I live is not a place where you can find a lot of variety. Also, even though I speak Japanese, sometimes I like the right vocabulary to ask the right questions and find out more about certain things related to fountain pens in this country. So, this is why this podcast is such a godsend. I learn about all sorts of things related to the fountain pen world in Japan that I would’ve never known about before. The two hosts are well-informed and there’s a great chemistry between them. This sort of podcast is surprisingly easy to listen to… It’s not pretentious or snobbish. It’s just basically to nice people talking about their interest in fountain pins and stationary, and informing us in the process. If you’d like fountain pens and are interested in Japanese fountain pen culture, this is your doorway.

A very fun and entertaining insight into the world of fountain pens. Demystifying the topics of nib grinding, Japanese pens, inks, and more!
