While it rhymes nicely with Erasable, we don’t often like the word irreplaceable. Sometimes pencils stop being made. Sometimes they were limited editions to begin with. We all miss the Blackwing 211. But sometimes there are perfectly good substitutes for the pencil items you miss, and we’re here to help you through it.
Maybe you carry around pens because you’re secretly afraid of falling and stabbing yourself through the chest or neck with a sharp Ticonderoga. Maybe one of Erasable’s hosts has had this fear for over three decades. We’re here to help, as tonight, we dive into point protectors, which will protect not only your fragile body, but also your precious pencil tips.
We’re back from the holidays and are ready to chat about pencils and pencil-adjacent holiday gifts we received. Still reeling from the Bomb Cyclone, Andy, Johnny, and Tim present some picks to keep you writing all winter in the Great Outdoors.

On this episode, we diverge from pencils for a moment to look at another analog writing tool we all know and love — typewriters!

Tonight it’s just Andy, Johnny, and Tim, talking about some new non-pencil stuff from Blackwing, some Baron Figs that just roll with it, the just-announced Field Notes, and the recent book The Secret Life of the Pencil. Your Terrific Triad also wrap about Plumbago, NaNoWriMo, and glitter-dipped pencils.
Tonight, we managed to pull our collective selves away from Stranger Things 2 and are excited to present another call-in episode — this time, with Caroline Weaver and Meredith Miotke from CW Pencil Enterprise! From erasers to could-have-been careers, our callers get the Pencil Ladies to open up. Speaking of opening up, we get the latest on their new amazing storefront, which includes a secret sticker store! Listen in...
Pens. That’s not a typo. Tonight, Andy and Johnny are joined by Elaine Ku from JetPens, and they all talk all about pens. Basically, what pens are best for dyed-in-the-wool pencil people? Pens. PENS! Tune in.
Fall release season is upon us, with new gear from Baron Fig, Field Notes and Blackwing. Join Andy, Johnny and Tim as they explore what’s new this season and how you might outfit yourself for the upcoming National Novel Writing Month.

Fear not, as your brave hosts are here to help all beginners in the Land of Graphite begin their Pencil Journeys.
