Would you be able to identify a nib by its feel? Tom and I discuss Schmidt nibs, the latest from Benu, and how awesome the pen community is. Let us know what kinds of nibs should be in our "blind taste test" at pentertainmentpodcast@gmail.com

I'm finding myself distracted from my studies by the sparkly goodness of the Benu Talisman Shooting Star fountain pen. You, too, can divert your attention from the doldrums of work and study when you order this pen from Goldspot Pens. We hope to have one of the co-owners of Benu, Kate, on the show in the near future to talk about how these psychedelic Benu pens are made. E-mail us if you have questions for any of our upcoming guests.

The summer heat is coming soon. Get your beach bod ready with the PenBoyRoy official YouTube channel shirt. This shirt is too awesome to take off under any circumstances. Cannonball into the deep end with it on. Go to the wave pool with it on. Rock it on vacation with your toes in the sand. It's a conversation starter that will have people noticing your excellent taste in pens rather than anything else about your appearance.
