And that's before you even like have to look at it. It's literally like... It looks like a dentist's tool. Yeah. Or it's like a standalone mixer or something. I don't know. Like, I mean, it's definitely something that people aren't going to repeat on this podcast. Like, it is like outrageously ugly.

	'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. Yeah. And I don't know. This one, like, I don't need, like, a new Kaweco. And, like, I have no intention on buying this one, but this is the kind of product that I love, right? Like, I really, really like this pen a lot. So I just thought that was cool. Cool thing to share because I think they launched it in San Francisco, but it's just kind of getting the publicity treatment now, like, on their site and on Instagram and stuff like that. Because now that they're going to be back from the San Francisco Pen Show, able to sell them in the shop, it's something to check out. Anyway, so I just really found that interesting. Um, we have another interesting pen we're going to have to talk about. I think we should talk about something else interesting before we get there because I need to prepare myself for this next topic we're going to have to cover.		'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. Yeah.

Um, we have another interesting pen we're going to have to talk about. I think we should talk about something else interesting before we get there because I need to prepare myself for this next topic we're going to have to cover.

	'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, that's a really good idea. Let's take a break first and then we'll get to that. And we can cast your mind away to a better place right now. Yeah. We're going to calm you down before we go into our next topic. We're going to talk about pizza. This episode is brought to you by ~~Uni~~ Pizza Ovens. Uni is the world's number one pizza oven company. This is because they make excellent, surprisingly small ovens powered by your choice of either wood, charcoal or gas to let you make restaurant quality pizza in your own backyard. ~~Uni~~ Pizza Ovens are incredibly easy to use and super portable. They fit into any outside space. ~~Uni~~ Pizza Ovens can reach temperatures of up to 900 degrees Fahrenheit. This enables you to cook restaurant quality pizza in as little as 60 seconds. The high temperature is what you need to really get that excellent result. It's what separates these pizzas from what you can make in a home oven just from a taste perspective, a visual perspective and a convenience perspective as well. They have a bunch of really excellent models over at Uni. They have the Uni Coda 16, which is what Brad has. This can cook up to 16 inch pizzas. They have an innovative L-shaped burner at the back to give you even heat distribution. They have the Uni Karu, which you can use wood, charcoal or gas. They have the Uni Vault, which is an electric powered pizza oven. They have so many more besides. There is the pizza oven for you. Just waiting there at Uni.com. Their pizza oven start at just $299 with free shipping to the US, UK and the EU. They also have all of the accessories that you're going to need from peels to cutters to oven tables. Everything you're going to need is over there at Uni. And you will get 10% off your purchase of an Uni pizza oven, which could be up to $50 off an Uni Coda 16. When you go to Uni.com, that's O-O-N-I.com and use the code ADDICT2023 at checkout. Brad, you love making pizza in your Uni, right?		'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, that's a really good idea.

	'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah. And we're getting ready to the best season for Uni pizza cooking, which is the fall. You can get that temperature cranked up and you can have, you know, a little bit of outside picnicking or dinner party or anything outside going. It's getting ready to be ideal pizza weather to cook in the Uni. So I cannot wait to crank it back up. So admittedly, it's been a little bit hot here to stand in front of the fire, even though it doesn't really radiate that much outwards. But you still want to have that experience, getting it outside, having it set up and going to town on some pizzas this fall. I can't wait.		'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah.
