In this episode, co-host Alexandra Richardson shares her behind-the-scenes experience helping out at the Chicago Pen Show, from meeting fellow pen enthusiasts to navigating the buzzing event floor. We’re then joined by Tom Gyr, the creative force behind Tom’s Studio, who reveals his grail pen and joins us for our weekly pen check.

Tom dives into the origin story of Tom’s Studio, starting with his first dip pen design and evolving into multifunctional, design-forward tools like the Lumos, Wren, and Studio Fountain Pen. He also shares why interchangeable nib options matter so much to his customers and how thoughtful design is at the heart of every product.
