Welcome to the PURGE! Jeremy has (mostly) cleaned out his stationery collection. Has he come up with some insightful thoughts about it? Yes. Does he still have more stuff than he will ever use? Also yes. Come join the conversation!

This week is all about composition notebooks and traveler’s notebooks! We talk about what we like, what we don’t like, and everything in between. Come join the conversation!

This week we're diving into academia! How do we study? Why take notes? Do we really need every color highlighter? Let's talk mind maps, school supplies, and getting a degree at 40. Come join the conversation!

This week we dive back into the stuff we love, which is...stuff. It's been a few months since volume one of our favorites, so we thought it was time to have volume two. The format is a bit different this time, but more fun, we hope. Come join the conversation!

This week we dust off some old journals and pocket notebooks to see how our writing/journaling style has evolved. Are we better writers? We hope so! What habits have we developed or stopped? What does the future hold for our journaling practices? Come join the conversation!

This week we're doing another company deep dive. Leuchtturm brand notebooks have been a powerhouse in the stationery genre for decades. Even more so with the popularity of bullet journaling.

We also wade into the murky waters of digital media ownership. Come join the conversation!

This week we're traveling, or at least talking about it. Sam goes over some great info about flying with fountain pens, as well as a great stationery store experience. Jeremy talks about how much fun it was (wasn't) to pack up his hoard of pens and notebooks and move 600 miles. Come join the conversation!

Sorry for the late upload! We haven't forgotten about you and we are grateful for everyone that listens and likes the show.

This one is for anyone that has wanted to start journaling, but doesn't know where to begin. We talk about inspiration, intention, and other "I" words. And also notebooks, delicious notebooks...

We weren't going to put "Hard vs Soft" as the episode title. This is a family show after all.

Jeremy sends his apologies for being extra ramblesome and unprepared this week. Too much caffeine and not enough sleep. Still a fun episode. We debate the flaws and merits of hardcover/softcover journals and traditional books. Come join the conversation.
