On the occasion of our thirtieth episode, we are joined by Chris Rothe, of Baltimore’s Write Notepads & Co. We rap with Chris about brass-ruled paper, his left-handed pencil designs and WNP&Co’s philanthropic work, as well as discuss some new developments in the stationery-by-subscription world.
Note: Due to some difficulties with Skype, our audio captured during the interview with Chris is fairly poor quality. Thanks to Chris, the quality of the interview itself, however, is so great, we still wanted to share it with you. We apologize for the audio, but still hope you'll tune in!
