For links to the products mentioned and Brian's answers, check out the Q&A 271 blog post:

In this Goulet Q&A episode, Brian talks about Fountain Pen Day, break in periods for pens, and his every day carry items (beyond just pens). Enjoy!

1) Mackenzie H. - Facebook (19:15)
The Diplomat Esteem and LAMY Studio seem like similar pens. I love the Studio and I'm wondering if you could compare and contrast them side by side.

2) @pasteboard_love - Instagram (26:49)
Do most pens have a break in period out of the box? or should they write perfectly immediately?

3) Andrea P. - Facebook (31:47)
Why does ink get inside the clear (or not clear) grip section above the nib? It's annoying!

4) Stephanie P. - Facebook (38:53)
Any big plans for Fountain Pen Day?

5) Alan S. - Facebook (44:46)
Besides the obvious busy times of the years (holidays), what is the busiest stationery-buying season we wouldn't expect?
 
6) @rtylerjames - Instagram (48:01)
Brian's EDC. Like EVERYTHING he CARRIES daily.

QOTW: What are the everyday carry things you that you have with you at all times? (01:01:01)
