The Erasable Podcast

It’s been a few weeks, and some of our favorite companies have dropped some lovely new releases since we last recorded. We’ll be back next week with a special guest, but this week, we present another Fresh Points episode full of limited edition goodness.Issue 6 of Plumbago Magazine is available for pre-order!

Summer is upon us, and we are here to greet the season with a breezy Fresh Points episode featuring all of the Graphite Goodness you’ve come to expect for 119 episodes, including a discussion of the latest limited edition from Blackwing. If you can find points that are fresher, you listen to ‘em!

Today we get musical and chat about the music we listen to while writing. To accompany this episode, we put together a little Spotify playlist with our music suggestions, available in show notes.

Andy is not with us tonight, but Tim and Johnny are joined by Mike Hagan, of Leadfast fame. Tune in for a short Fresh Points episode from the hairier co-hosts and bearded guest Mike!

Today as the weather gets warmer across much of North America, we’re talking about writing outside. We discuss some of our favorite places to write out of doors, from balconies to firepits to coffee shops. We have our preferred al fresco tools and methods, and of course, will mentally assemble our proverbial desert island pack.

In this episode, Ana, Caroline and Andi — your favorite hosts — go all in on some of their favorite non-pencil products, like lip balm, boxed wine, Imabari face towels, and more. They talk about where they get their best USPS postage stamp news, and how the Orchard Street Reading Society discusses books. We’re so excited you’ve stuck around for five years. Happy National Pencil Day, everyone!

We do a lot of speculating about Blackwing editions here on the show, but today, Andy and Johnny get the scoop straight from source, with our special guest: Blackwing Brand Manager Alexander Poirier! He discusses all things Blackwing, like the release of the extra-firm Blackwing Natural and the brand-new Volume 811, and even the ideation and creation process behind the Volumes editions. You won’t want to miss this!
