How Playing Marbles Revolutionized Writing

from The Mo and Katy Show · host Katy Stevens and Mo Barrett

Mo and Katy dive into the world of positive disruptors, exploring the unexpected origin of the ballpoint pen, the aristocrat who bought the patent (and whose name sounds suspiciously like a certain word) and why licking a pen might just be the key to getting the ball rolling—literally. Along the way, they geek out over their favorite pens, challenge you to disrupt someone’s mailbox with a handwritten note and discuss the power of small, meaningful gestures. Plus, a lesson in fountain pen swordsmanship.
