BONUS: Poetry and Us
Surprise! We want to talk about our relationship (whether it exists or not) to poetry before we begin any discussions of the sort. This bonus episode will serve as our general introduction to poetry and the spaces it occupies in our lives, both personal and professional. We figured we’d spare you the trouble of having to scrub through an episode to get a recap on our personal standings with poetry of all sorts and have it as a separate episode.

Episode 16: Buzzfeed Unsolved
This week on the podcast: Jez, Marianne, and Carla talk about Buzzfeed Unsolved. It’s a bit of a somber episode as the hosts talk about veracity, ethics, belief, and creator-consumer relationship with regards to this popular online show. Marianne makes a terrible joke and we want you to know she is both sorry and not sorry for that. She had to get that bit in.
WARNING: We discuss graphic depictions of violence in some episodes of the series. Listener discretion is advised.
