Episode 43: Celebrating Fountain Pen Day with Cary Yeager

It's Election Day. Instead of talking politics and polls, we're talking to Cary Yeager, A.K.A. Mr. Fountain Pen Day. 9 years ago, he spearheaded the first-ever "Fountain Pen Day" celebrated on the first Friday in November. Since then, he's carried the torch for fountain pen enthusiasts, growing the yearly celebration into a holiday observed worldwide. Cary tells us his own origin story as well as the story of how FPD started and became the juggernaut it is today.

This year's Fountain Pen Day is Friday, November 6th. Listen to the episode to hear all the ways you can celebrate. Listen to the very end to hear how Tom will celebrate - gross.
