Episode 112: Episode One hundred and Twelve Monkeys

Content Warning: Tom and I discuss the recent announcement by Luxury Brands of America that Benu is moving their staff and pen manufacturing operations from Russia to Armenia. We also discuss improvements made to the retractable Platinum Curidas fountain pen, studying with blue light glasses, popping cans of seltzer, Socrates' fish funeral, and the strategy behind spoiler-free, limited-edition pen releases. Email us at pentertainmentpodcast@gmail.com to hurl all your hate towards the people who made this podcast.
