About Blackwing:
Legendary Grammy, Emmy, Pulitzer and Academy Award winners have created with the Blackwing 602 pencil. Blackwing’s roots go back to the 1930’s when the 602 model was first introduced by the Eberhard Faber Pencil Company. Over the years, the pencil with the unique rectangular eraser became synonymous with quality. Then, in 1998, after several corporate acquisitions, it was discontinued, but not forgotten. In fact, fans began paying as much as $40 on eBay for a single Blackwing pencil.
In 2007, we introduced our Palomino range of pencils using Genuine Incense-cedar and premium Japanese graphite. Artists and writers started comparing them to their beloved Blackwing 602s, and folks began asking us to consider reviving the Blackwing brand. We tapped into over 100 years of family-run pencil industry experience to re-introduce Blackwing pencils in 2010.
In the 10 years since its revival, Blackwing has grown from a single pencil into a culture. It’s a culture that's all about living mindfully and finding balance in our fast paced lives.

I can’t believe Jeff tweedy just said he was closer to David Lee Roth than Bob Dylan. Never saw that one coming. Enjoyed the interview.

I love it! Just wishing it were louder, but otherwise, great interview.

I think they are socially distancing? Single mike maybe even a cell phone.

A van would show up at my country school with books to check out. Otherwise magazines and encyclopedia sounds about right for me. Great interview from a writer to a writer.

Such a great interview, coulda used a sound check though...

Nice work but use two mics next time?

[@spaceengineer1452]

If the interviewer is gonna talk so much, it may be a good idea to mic him up.
