In this week's episode of the Appelboom Bites Podcast, we’re thrilled to welcome Nadia, the Head of Marketing from the British-based brand Wingback. Wingback is renowned for its meticulously crafted writing instruments made from solid metals like brass, stainless steel, and titanium, as well as their sleek and stylish pen sleeves.

Our wonderful co-host Vanessa Langton joins the show this week, and we’re so grateful she could step in! The conversation is filled with laughs as we dive into the world of premium writing tools, and somehow, we end up veering into an unexpected discussion about James Bond.

Nadia and Vanessa also share their thoughts on their dream pens, giving us a glimpse into their perfect writing instruments. Plus, Joost reveals some exciting new product launches, including the TWSBI Eco Slate Blue with Onyx fountain pen, the Armando Simoni Bespoke 2025 fountain pen, and a stunning new brand, AP Limited Editions. These fountain pens feature exquisite Maki-e and Urushi lacquer craftsmanship – you won’t want to miss hearing about these beautiful new additions!

Tune in for a fun and informative episode filled with everything from dream pens to new releases, and of course, a few good laughs along the way. Don’t forget to subscribe and join us for the next episode of the Appelboom Bites Podcast!
