I visit Goldspot Pens in Aberdeen, NJ to take a stroll down memory lane with my co-host, Mr. Odd Oink, and Sal Mehra, the co-owner of Goldspot Pens. We jump into the Wayback Machine to view what the Goldspot website looked like in ancient history (2002). We discuss how Sal & Kiran started Goldspot and how they got into pens. We also talk about what makes watches so much more appealing and justifiably expensive than pens.

Coming in late October 2021, Luxury Brands of America introduces 5 new colors of the Benu Briolette fountain pens, including 4 designs that glow in the dark. Seriously, if you like color and sparkly pens, you need to have a Benu on your desk. It makes writing the most mundane notes exciting.

What better way to start off a pen podcast than by talking about... pens! Tom and I have a full-blown discussion on why we enjoy using Kaweco Sport fountain pens, the various versions of the Sport, and why I trashed a Goldspot-exclusive Transparent Turquoise Sport Pen. We also talk about metal sections on acrylic pens. And, I call baloney on "Tom's Favorite Pens."

You'll be jumping for joy over new fountain pens from Italian manufacturer Gioia. Coming soon are four new Alleria fountain pens in four gorgeous acrylics - Blue Grotto, Twilight, Amarnth, and Vittoria. They have Italian names, but I don't want to butcher the pronunciations like Brad Pitt did in Inglorious Bastards.

If you'd like to listen to a podcast about pens, you may want to seek about 20 minutes into this episode for the first glimpses of pen conversation. Yet, I know that all of you are looking for so much more than two guys talking about fountain pens. Tom and I talk about fish care, the origins of Monopoly, the Mandela effect, an alternate ending to the movie Ghostbusters, and finish things off with Tom's impression of the Macho Man Randy Savage.

This episode is also brought to you by Luxury Brands of America. Bryce left us a voice memo reminder to tell you about all the new Waldmann writing instruments coming in from Germany this month - including the Tango Imagination, Tuscany Vela, and Frosted Ruthenium styles. We also talk a bit about the Waldmann Grandeur's price drop. You're welcome, folks.

How many turns are too many for capping a fountain pen? Let's ask Mr. Owl.
One. Tu-hooo. Thrrrree.... Three!
Tom and I discuss the difference between the original Esterbrook JR and the new JR Paradise fountain pen. We also wax philosophical on reviewing pens made by independent makers. Join us as we do some window shopping on wetandwise.com - Thanks for sending your pens in carbonite, Nabi!

No, this episode is not an hour-long sponsorship read. However, we do chat about some of the new exclusive pens and Jowo nibs at Goldspot as well as the new Platinum Preppy Wa (more on that below). Tom reads several hilarious #firetom comments. We discuss the efficacy of diets including Keto and Whole30.

While the majority of this episode has major positive vibes and gratitude for the pen community, it wouldn't be the Pentertainment Podcast if we didn't lay the smackdown. We throw some shade on the frosty white peak of Montblanc. For example, why would they hire an actor like Cillian Murphy to be a spokesperson for their products? Maybe because he can convince people that he likes writing with a Montblanc pen when he really doesn't care? Perhaps, in five years, they could cast someone that looks exactly like him to promote a new ink that's really repackaged Beatles Psychedelic Purple. #montblancgate

It wouldn't be the Pentertainment Podcast if you didn't get your healthy dose of veggies and juvenile humor. This episode guarantees that you'll have more fun than the Tooth Fairy at a dentist convention. We talk about a number of new pens, including big, girthy ones from Waldmann and Gioia. You won't want to miss a second, so set your kitchen timer so you don't burn anything in the oven.

In this episode, we talked extensively about the lovely pens from our friend Bryce at Luxury Brands of America. Replacing my beloved Waldmann Commander is the impressive Grandeur collection. It's huge, made with sterling silver, lacquer, and platinum-plated appointments. To complement its grand size, the fountain pen has a number six nib made by Jowo. Check out the Waldmann Grandeur coming soon to most Waldmann pen retailers in the USA.

My accountability partner and I discuss the lovely Laban pen that Jerry handed me at the DC Pen Show. We venture into bougie territory with S.T. Dupont pens and lighters. Tom still didn't watch my Kenro "Storytellers" Instagram interview. So disappointing. Almost as disappointing as his taste in movies that don't include Brendan Fraser. Speaking of movies, we discuss the scenario in "Passengers" and how we would make Chris Pratt's decision in the movie. Spoiler alert - there are spoilers. To spoil your ending - the credits are really long and set against a black background.

Luxury Brands of America introduces yet another astounding Waldmann pen. Both Tom and I love the Tuscany pen. We've done video reviews on this pen design in the chocolate finish. Now, Waldmann takes it to a new level with the Vela rose gold and Frosted Ruthenium finishes. You'll love the attention to detail and the richness of its appealing design. Coming soon to most US Waldmann retailers, including Goldspot Pens.

Tom and I wrap up the DC Fountain Pen Supershow weekend with a fun, detailed account of what it was like to attend on Friday and Saturday. There was only one pen that my wife allowed me to buy. Spoiler alert: I love it. Also, I talk about being interviewed for the Kenro Industries Storytellers live event on Instagram.

From Luxury Brands of America, the new Waldmann Tango bares all and leaves nothing to the "Imagination." This is a very special finish featuring an engraved sterling silver body that has translucent, color lacquer applied over it. Then, the lacquer is shaved down like Tom's back hair to let more of the engraved silver body show through. Finally, the German artisans finish the piece with a clear lacquer to protect the finish. Stay tuned for more incredible new pens from Waldmann, this is just the beginning!

While we might have aimed to talk about two different things, Tom and I have a full discussion about bullet journaling. We'd love to see the evolution of your bullet journal by tagging either @penboyroy or @inkjournal on Instagram or TikTok. I did get a chance to rant about that watch that travels back through time. And, Tom did get to briefly discuss the upcoming DC Pen Show.
