'''Myke Hurley:''' This episode is brought to you by our friends over at Enigma Stationery who offer unique items made from in-house designs along with top brands and hard-to-find imports. Now, I'm sure that Brad is taking himself over to enigmastationery.com right now to see what is catching his eye. Brad, what is even new in or popular over at Enigma that you're excited about right now?

'''Brad Dowdy:''' So I feel like my thumb is very much on the scale of the Pen Addict Featured Items page. Yes. It's very Business Frog related. Yes. Which, if you're not familiar, if you're just starting to listen to us now, you need to go get into the world of Business Frog. Absolutely. I'm a huge fan. Yep. Huge fan of Business Frog. But since I've talked about them so much, I want to talk about a couple of other things that they did put on their featured items. Anderillium inks, we don't talk about them enough. They have a great Luna Mothgreen ink over there amongst many other inks over at Enigma Stationery. So Anderillium does a really, really great job with their inks. And they have different kind of theme series, right? So this one's like moths and butterflies and things like that. So go check those out. They got these beautiful new Midori diaries that I haven't seen. The Midori B6. This is actually kind of going to relate to something we're going to touch on here in a minute.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Midori makes some of the best quality products. Like just from a paper perspective. And then they lean into the aesthetic pleasing. This book would go with the Kino Stationery number 001 like perfectly. The design and the aesthetic. It's kind of like I should probably get it just for that pen. It's kind of perfect for that. And then they have a whole bunch of other diaries. People should look into like the Midori three-year diaries that they have or the five years. I've been using a five-year Hobonichi for a long time. I'm in the midst of year four of that. This is a really great product. And I see they have a bunch of different three-year and five-year. Oh, God. There's a 10-year one? Wow.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Oh, my God.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I haven't seen the 10-year one. No. Well, I'm going to turn mine into like a nine- or 10-year diary. We'll talk about that maybe in another year when I'm finished the fifth year.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I think starting at 10 years is too much. Like for your first one or whatever. Yeah. It's too much. It's daunting.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. Just honestly, I do just three years over and over again. Just do a stack of three years. Do three years, get a new three-year. Like I like to change it up from time to time. And even though I haven't changed up my five-year diary, I think I'm going to keep it going.

'''Myke Hurley:''' The three-year, I'm all about it. The 10-year, no thanks. It's too big for me.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yep. And five's not bad. I've actually seen some of the fives in person. They're not bad.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I have a couple of the three years. They're beautiful. I really like the design that they do on them too. Because they have a lot of nice colors now as well, which is good.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yep. Last thing you can get over to Enigma Stationery, which I'm going to have to order soon because I just got the Lamy All-Star, the Disco and Rollerball, you know, the very colorful ones. I got some of the ballpoint ones. But like I have to have the M17 Jetstream ballpoint refill, which is not easy to get. Enigma Stationery has those in stock. They're not cheap, but man, are they worth it. So like that's a huge, huge selling point to me. So that's going to be the next thing I order from Enigma. You get that in .5? From Enigma. They just have seven. They have .5 and .7. Do they have .5? Okay. Yeah. I have the .5 right now, so I will get .5. I need to get like one or two more of those. Probably one more. We'll see. One or two more. Like I said, they're very expensive, but man, are they worth it. They're just a fantastic, fantastic refill.
