    Poets At War Ep. 276: The Broodcast September 2026

    Welcome to Poets at War, a podcast documenting the brood of writers, where art, theology, philosophy, and fun beckon your ears.Today on the program, we gather the troops for the monthly Broodcast! The writers assemble in the barracks to share their latest dispatches from the creative front lines.First, General Joshua David Ling reads for an absent troop. Joel Stanley's "Hope Awakened," Chapter 44 — the tense aftermath of Fox's rescue of Hope, as the shaken Sergeant Mann confronts what his daughter survived. The Brood weighs in on Hope's harrowing confession, that bedpan reveal, the return of the blue alien Starlett, and exactly how many impossible things a man can stack before he faints dead away.Next, Joshua steps up with his own pages: two chapters of An Idiot's Guide to Illegal Tech Repair — "The Grand Tour" and "#6: Red Rover." Blaze and Pandora tour their new home, the Magnus Canis, before a Gryvian 320 Sphere forces Operation Red Rover into motion. The troops discuss pacing, the need for location detail, and Joshua's two-year mission to write settings, not just stages.Then Ian Wilson returns to Heart of the Stars with Chapter 9 and the start of Chapter 10, "The Bog World." Eddie blasts giant spiders from the ship's gunner seat, Azariah goes full spacewalk with nothing but magnetic boots and a sword, and the crew crash-lands on Thume — a Louisiana-flavored Dagobah of intelligent fungus, a disgruntled cat captain, and a frog engineer named Thrung. (Technical difficulties are suffered gallantly by all present.)Brendan brings a training scene from Book One of The Bard King, where the monster-hunting veteran Vos teaches the young soldier Tiernan to be strong, not stiff. The Brood debates whether a lesson needs a payoff, what "wax on, wax off" really means, and how much inner life a silent badass can carry.Finally, Ethan shares Chapter 2 of Working Through the Ashes. Griffin and his father Arnold build a shed, wage a paintbrush Star Wars duel, and claim the McGregor family hat — until smoke rises from the hill and everything changes. The troops praise the Midwestern charm, the implied backstory, and the gut-punch of an ending.Timestamps: 00:00 - Intro & Broodcast Roll Call 00:27 - Opening Banter: Baseball, Trips, & Writing Updates 20:34 - Joel Stanley's Story: Hope Awakened, Ch. 44 41:26 - Feedback on Joel's Story 46:08 - Joshua David Ling's Story: An Idiot's Guide to Illegal Tech Repair 55:18 - Feedback on Joshua's Story 58:13 - Ian Wilson's Story: Heart of the Stars, Ch. 9 & 10 1:31:28 - Feedback on Ian's Story 1:38:56 - Brendan's Story: The Bard King, Book One 1:44:51 - Feedback on Brendan's Story 2:06:41 - Ethan's Story: Working Through the Ashes, Ch. 2:22:26 - Feedback on Ethan's Story & OutroYou too can be a part of the brood of writers and Poets at War.

    Poets At War Ep. 275: Sports Cars, Fairy Tales, and the Reality of Art

    Welcome to Poets at War, a podcast documenting the brood of writers, where art, theology, philosophy, and fun beckon your ears.Today on the program, General Joshua David Ling holds a late-night war council recorded February 26th, 2026, with Joel, Brendan, John, Dante, and Daniel — a Thursday share-night on the eve of a Broodcast, where Joel unveils his Morris Museum entry, a 2,492-word short story about a self-aware rally car named A113 and the AI voice-avatar, Allie, who falls in love with a carjacker's driving on a police chase — and the brood spends the first hour debating whether its cliffhanger ending needs one more beat, Brendan citing The Lady, or the Tiger? and "Mr. Stark, I want to talk to you about the Avengers initiative," Dante invoking Mass Effect's Cerberus — before the night spirals into folktales (The King, the Mice and the Cheese, Stone Soup, Jan Brett's ornate borders, Gyo Fujikawa), Brendan's monthly "write as I get mad" articles and the artistic temperament, a dense theology of the heart in ancient Hebrew (your emotions live in your kidneys), controlled wrath, and going feral like Jesus in the temple — and closes with the great debate on whether digital art is real: Brendan's "writing on a grain of sand," Dante's provenance, John's $20,000 print runs, and Joshua holding up his father's childhood Narnia to prove a story is a story. Art, theology, philosophy, and fun — plus a closing hymn and a baby doing Irish dancing in the womb.**Chapters:**- 00:00 — Intro & The Thursday Night War Council — opening hymn, vibe coding, stories consolidated into one phone app, and Baby #3 due March 31st.- 02:33 — Joel's Update, Ghost Warrior, & The Artist — Pinewood Derby, his $100-a-picture artist, and the sword waiting on Sophia Logos.- 05:36 — The Morris Museum Competition & The 2,500-Word Cap — $1,000 first prize, and nothing already under a publisher's consideration.- 07:38 — Joel Reads "A113" — the funeral, the picky AI race engineer, the police chase, and the job offer, with live edits along the way.- 29:38 — First Reactions & The Premise Recap — "That's really fun," and Joel recapping the whole thing for John and Brendan.- 34:12 — The Lady or the Tiger: Brendan's Ending Critique — 2,492 words, two doors, and the abrupt ending that launched a council-wide debate.- 40:37 — Mass Effect, Cerberus, & The Stranger's Idea — Dante compares Allie's job offer to ME2's resurrected protagonist: "You work for us now."- 45:02 — Story Wrap-Up & Broodcast Plans — tomorrow at 9pm Eastern, and an apology for the cliffhangers.- 46:05 — The King, the Mice and the Cheese & Folktale Variations — cats and dogs and lions and elephants, ouroboros endings, and the wolves of North Carolina.- 50:45 — Stone Soup, Jan Brett, & Gyo Fujikawa — con-artist goodwill, goat borders, and "We always said Geo Fu Geo."- 56:31 — Brendan's Articles & The Artistic Temperament — "I basically just write as I get mad," and what creativity is without emotion.- 1:00:13 — "The Heart Is Deceitful", Stoicism, & Going Feral in Control — kidneys, sackcloth, and Jesus overturning the tables.- 1:12:22 — Music as Confirmation or Creation — within temptation and Enya, plus Beethoven, Mozart...

    Poets At War Ep. 274: The Conservative Heart, Heart of The Stars, and Power Metal

    Welcome to Poets at War, a podcast documenting the brood of writers, where art, theology, philosophy, and fun beckon your ears.Today on the program, General Joshua David Ling holds a late-night war council recorded February 25th, 2026, with Alex, Ian, and Carey. It's an episode built around a single book: Alex reads his full 1,000-word review of *The Conservative Heart* by Arthur C. Brooks, a takedown of the pursuit-of-happiness thesis that sparks a genuinely useful debate about how to argue with conservatives — why calling something "irrelevant" stings harder than calling it "untrue," the Hulk Hogan argument, and the Van Til-versus-Aquinas question of grounding it all in Scripture *and* history. Before the book, the council spirals through emulation and playing Windows games on a phone, Ian's rewrite of *Heart of the Stars* (a completely ordinary ten-year-old who happens to hold the fate of the universe), the OKC Thunder, Nolan Ryan and Greg Maddux's psychological warfare, Ronnie James Dio and the god Baal who erased the tapes, power metal's most underrated vocalists, and a standing escape plan to rucksack-walk all the way to Oklahoma. Chapters:00:00 — Intro & The February 25th War Council — Podcast intro, the night's plan (a book, Ian's story, baseball), and the opening hymn.00:50 — Emulation, Windows on Android & Roll Call — Playing Windows games on a phone, Ark on Android, Alex arrives late, and Ian and Peter roll in.04:20 — Windows 11 vs. macOS & The Teleprompter — Alex's Windows 11 rage, Peter's Mac-only confusion, and Joshua's Discord setup.07:41 — Peter, The Fray & "How to Save a Life" — "The fraying ends of sanity," the band Peter's never heard of, and the very special episode of soft rock.10:23 — Ian's "Heart of the Stars" — Putting Uther on the shelf, the rewritten prologue, and Eddie — the completely normal kid with the fate of the universe in his hands.15:18 — Broodcast Plans & Marty's Rewrite — Reading for Joel and Marty, and Marty's much-improved (less AI) Civil War text.17:57 — Thunder, Braves & Spring Training — OKC's no-starters near-miss, Profar's frame job, and two teams in the Apple Sports app.24:27 — Nolan Ryan & Greg Maddux — Facing Nolan, the line drive off the mouth, five no-hitters, and the four-time Cy Young accountant.34:49 — Camo Effects, 311 Poems & Oklahoma Dreams — Carey's camera monster, Joshua's writing app, and a rucksack-walk to Oklahoma.39:54 — Occultism in Heavy Metal & Power Metal's Best Voices — Dio, Baal, Rising vs. Long Live Rock 'n' Roll, and Ian's underrated-vocalist Mount Rushmore.55:19 — Alex Reviews "The Conservative Heart" — The full 1,000-word review, read in full.1:02:07 — Bahnsen, Van Til & The NexDock — "Sounding very Bonsonite," perceiving vs. knowing, and the laptop shell for the baby's arrival.1:07:34 — The Revised Review & Critiquing People vs. Ideas — The ChatGPT tone pass, the Hulk Hogan argument, and why "irrelevant" is the sharper sword.1:22:37 — The God of Consent & Rooting It in History — Arminians, romantic presuppositions, homo economicus, Burke, and the Inquisition counter-punch.1:31:22 — Enchanting Epics, Jesse & AI Animation — The Jesse interview, the moaning Emily, open-source 3D tools, and animating the prophecy.1:36:47 — Wrap-Up & Sign-Off — The Broodcast moves to 9pm Eastern, goodnights, and a closing hymn.If you're a true poetry patriot, you can support us on and Patreon, at https://patreon.com/poetsatwar/ and get the recordings of all of our encouraging and strategic meetings early and uncut!

    Poets At War Ep. 273: John Knox, Powerpuff Girls, & Post-apocalyptic Paladins

    Today on the program, Joshua pulls back the curtain on a recording he almost missed: a late-night session with John (Ramzait), Dante, and Daniel, recorded February 18th, 2026. John, deep into the fifth volume of his Royal Road serial at chapter 167, shares the high life of the web-serial trenches: five-star reviews, the one loyal reader who says 'thanks for the chapter' every release, the regent's scorched-earth siege that cost him a follower, and the plan to give readers a Discord home, free — because the VA disability comes first. The conversation spirals through Joshua's favorite serial Worm, the Powerpuff Girls as a perfect story machine (via a mysterious dual-sided DVD and a cameo from Hazel), the theology of self-sacrifice in storytelling, and a glorious history deep dive: Henry II and the end of Ireland's High Kings, Cromwell as 'fine, I'll do it myself,' Lady Jane Gray (the nine-day queen who named the Lings' third daughter), and John Knox — galley slave, author of the most clickbait title in Reformation history, and the man who threw Mary's picture out an oar window with 'The lady is light enough, let her swim.' Then Dante arrives with Warhammer 40K's corpse starch and Horizon Zero Dawn's deleted library, Daniel pitches the seven-book Maiden's Child with a heist for book four, and Joshua relates the Knights of Adonai — Protestant knights with HEMA style training. Chapters:00:00 — Intro: "I Missed This Recording" — Joshua pulls back the curtain on a February 18th session that almost slipped through the cracks, and warns of an abrupt cutoff.01:46 — John's Royal Road Serial: 167 Chapters In — Fifth volume, five-star reviews, the faithful reader, and the chapter where Maude finally faces real demons.07:19 — Hazel's Cameo: The Mystery DVD — A dual-sided Powerpuff Girls disc with no label, and a goodnight for the broodling.08:02 — Maude Burns the Forest: Losing a Reader — The regent's scorched-earth siege, "they can have the ashes," and the character logic behind it.14:43 — Building a Free Audience — Discord instead of Patreon, the VA disability, AI-narrated podcasts, and web comic dreams.18:36 — Preaching vs. Storytelling — Self-sacrifice always hits, parables, and stories reaching the right people at the right time.22:07 — Worm, Wildbow & Serial Craft — The 24-novel superhero serial, TV-episode chapter structure, and eight-POV volumes.28:48 — Maude the Prophet — Stigmata, visions, a biblical judge's throne, and character change that takes a thousand pages.32:49 — New Camera, Enchanting Epics & The Brood Update — Teleprompters, a hybrid radio-drama musical, and the state of the Brood.38:40 — Worldbuilding From History — Tolkien, Robert Jordan, The Silmarillion's long shadow, and butterfly-effect apocalypses.43:14 — The History Deep Dive — Celts and Picts, Henry II and the High Kings, Cromwell's "fine, I'll do it myself," and the Plantagenets' Hundred Years' War.51:37 — Lady Jane Grey: The Nine-Day Queen — Why the Lings' third daughter is named Jane, and dignity to the end.56:48 — John Knox: The Lady Is Light Enough — The monstrous regiment, the Siege of St. Andrews, the galley slave, and the bride who said yes.1:07:14 — Heritage, Alfred & Common Law — Scots-Irish roots, Deuteronomy's common law, and Nathan calling David to repent.1:12:03 — Dante Arrives: Grimdark 101 — Mistborn, Warhammer 40K's corpse starch, and Horizon Zero Dawn's deleted library.1:18:48 — The Post-Post-Apocalypse — One prayer heard, the first paladin, fire abandoned, and Napoleon worshiped as a war god.1:31:05 — Knights, Book Titles & Family Chaos — The Knights of Adonai, the Maiden's Child naming debate, and nieces raised on Demon Slayer.1:59:47 — Outro & Sign-off — The abrupt end, and how to join the Brood.If you're a true poetry patriot, you can support us on and Patreon, at https://patreon.com/poetsatwar/ and get the recordings of all of our encouraging and strategic meetings early and uncut!

    Poets At War Ep. 272: The Broodcast August 2026

    Welcome to Poets at War, a podcast documenting the brood of writers, where art, theology, philosophy, and fun beckon your ears. Today on the program, we gather the troops for the monthly Broodcast! The writers assemble in the barracks to share their latest dispatches from the creative front lines.First, Ethan shares Chapter One of Sizable Adventure — "Morning in the Country" — a slow, sunlit farm morning that the Brood suspects might be just a little too normal. Dante asks whether Griffin's parents are secretly aliens, Brendan invokes The Giver and tells Ethan to push his proportions, and Joshua argues that even the Shire has more flavor. Next, General Joshua David Ling reads poems three and four of Idiot's Guide to Illegal Tech Repair: "Pandora's Box" and "Orientation," in which the crew of a Waffle House in space discovers their new friend has a human heart wired into a robot body — and the Brood demands answers (read and find out). Then Joel shares a chapter from his alien invasion novel, where a nurse, a rescued little girl named Hope, and a med student with brain nanites face a soldier-dad who has no idea what really happened to his daughter — and a tablet that will not stop dinging. Finally, Brendan walks the Brood through his full outline for Book One of the Bard King Trilogy: Tiernan, a timid soldier in the mercenary company the Red Razors, an escort job for a mysterious girl named Eleanor, a mute cat-kindred named Hush, salt-brine daggers, troll raids, and the long road from Soldier to Poet to King.Chapters:00:00:00 — Intro & Broodcast Roll Call — Joshua's voice is gone from the Braves' 1–0 shutout, Alex's wife is sick, Ethan debuts his Aussie hat, and Dante is fixing his truck.00:03:31 — Satchel Paige, the Perfect Country Song & the Hype Organ — The 37-year-old who threw 100 mph, the Whipsy Dipsy Doo, David Allan Coe's perfect country song, and Joel's Fugue in D Minor chapel story.00:31:04 — Ethan Shares: "Sizable Adventure" Chapter 1 — Morning in the Country — Griffin MacGregor's perfectly normal farm morning, from cat Brooks to a suspicious wisp of black smoke.00:43:31 — Feedback on Ethan's Story — Too much detail or not enough flavor? The Giver, the Shire, Indiana Jones, and the "three years later" time skip.01:01:45 — Joshua Shares: Idiot's Guide to Illegal Tech Repair — Poems 3 & 4 — "Pandora's Box" and "Orientation," the Waffle House in space, Ranger orientation, and the back-panel reveal.01:11:16 — Feedback on Joshua's Poems — Pandora's human heart, Blayze's refusal to grieve, vampiric tech, and "Am I experiencing Joshua character development?"01:24:18 — Joel Shares: "Finding Hope" — A nurse, a corrupted little girl, a med student with nanites, and a father who doesn't know what happened to his daughter.01:44:45 — Feedback on Joel's Story — Surveillance panic vs. tech literacy, Stockholm syndrome, and "Ding! It's sending all my thoughts."01:54:00 — Brendan Shares: The Bard King Trilogy Book One Outline — All seventeen chapters: Tiernan, the Red Razors, Eleanor, Voss, Hush, salt-brine daggers, and the troll rescue.02:18:40 — Feedback on Brendan's Outline — Bandit tactics, troll lore, Tiernan's flaw, Mary Sues, and the Soldier-to-King arc.02:40:30 — Outro & Sign-off — "Be your family's bard," how to join the Brood, and a closing hymn.You too can be a part of the brood of writers and Poets at War.

    Poets At War Ep. 271: Cinder Spires, Cajun Accents, and Baseball's Wildest Names

    Welcome to Poets at War, a podcast documenting the brood of writers, where art, theology, philosophy, and fun beckon your ears.Today on the program, General Joshua David Ling holds a late-night war council with Jesse, Carey, and Dante (with Jeff dropping in), recorded February 19th, 2026. What starts as a casual hangout over homemade pancakes quickly spirals through Jim Butcher's magic-crystal airships, the wildest names in baseball history, Georgia and Cajun accents, the GMO gospel of cotton candy grapes, mosquito folklore, and a surprisingly serious debate about whether it's okay to eat a piece of your own leg. Art, theology, philosophy, and fun — plus absolutely zero discipline.Chapters:00:00 — Intro: The Time Loop00:57 — The Cinder Spires & Soft Magic Wizards08:02 — 500 Poems & The Oklahoma Plan12:12 — The Braves, Pebbly Jack, & Baseball's Wildest Names26:00 — Carey Arrives: Pancakes, AC & Rage Bait36:14 — Cotton Candy Grapes & The GMO Gospel38:14 — Reed Jones, Georgia Voices & The Meme45:37 — Languages, Anthems & Learning Through Song55:26 — Web Builds, Ungoliant & Casey's Name01:03:08 — Mardi Gras, Franklin & Sourdough01:10:20 — Mosquitoes, Garlic & Spider Bites01:19:17 — The Leg Eating Ethics Debate01:29:16 — Goodnight, BroodlingsJoin The Brood: https://joshuadavidling.com/discord | Support Patreon: https://patreon.com/poetsatwar

    Poets At War Ep. 270: Electron Magic, Epic Poetry, & Whit's End

    Welcome to Poets at War, a podcast documenting the brood of writers, where art, theology, philosophy, and fun beckon your ears.Today on the program, Joshua David Ling is joined by Alex, Aaron, and Dante for a late-night work-gathering recorded February 11, 2026. Aaron kicks things off with a heavily-reworked opening chapter built around a fantasy magic system that runs on literal quantum physics — his mages control electrons, collapsing probability the way the Copenhagen interpretation demands — and the Brood breaks down why "insider trading in quantum physics" might be the best summary of a magic system ever said out loud.Then the night pivots into a full Guardians of Atlanta season-one autopsy. Dante, fresh off reading the entire series, delivers honest first-reader critiques: Cyrus reads as the true primary, William is too hot-headed for a leader, Bobby feels shallow, Brock needs a ballad. That ignites a Fellowship of the Ring vs. A New Hope debate on standalone stories, a deep dive into the Knights of Adonai's real-world church-history parallels (J. Gresham Machen, the OPC, and the fundamentalist–modernist controversy), and the reveal that the four Guardians are archetypes of the South itself. Joshua walks through his modular "10 poems per episode, 10 episodes per season" production model, the tell-and-song hybrid format, and teases season two — including a Christmas episode William would rather die than celebrate. And it all caps off with a confirmation that will break Adventures in Odyssey fans: the true identity of Mr. H.Chapters:00:00 — General's Report & Life Updates — Aaron's accidental 2,000-word writing day, Joshua's 600-poem library app, and Alex's thrift-store dining-room tour10:40 — Aaron Reads: Lightning & Stone — the reworked first chapter, featuring Alev and the "lightning is the husband, stone is the wife" lore25:40 — The Quantum Physics of Magic — knowledge vs. authority, electron control, and the bad guys who hold all the healing power41:30 — Dante's Guardians Autopsy — a new reader's honest first-impression critique of the cast48:50 — A New Hope vs. The Fellowship — the standalone-story debate, and "Bobby is my Legolas"58:00 — Production Plans & The Hybrid Format — one poem at a time, tell-and-song, and Enchanting Epics1:00:10 — Bobby: The Deliberate Odd Man Out — the deist among Christians, the circus-cult, the arcane trickster rogue1:04:30 — Freakshow, Amy, & The Sanderson Standard — the best-executed episode, and Amy the Frankenstein's monster1:13:30 — Amira's Broken Blessing — the twin, the power-drawing, and the foster-care stunting1:16:40 — Knights of Adonai & Real Church History — Machen, the OPC, and William's defensive hot-headedness1:22:20 — Season Two: The Christmas Episode — William vs. Christmas, and Amira's new faith1:27:00 — Red Death's Inner Circle — Philip Keller, Rose & Lily, Jack Skelton, and Berserk1:31:00 — Writing Sessions & Method Acting — Friday the 20th, and Dante's plan to get inside William's head1:38:00 — Four Archetypes of the South — Cyrus, William, Amira, and Bobby, from a 15-year-old's notebook1:46:00 — Shadowlash & The World of Odyssey Reveal — the three enchanted objects, cloned wine, and Mr. H's secret identity.Join The Brood: https://joshuadavidling.com/discord | Support Patreon: https://patreon.com/poetsatwar

Carey joins from his new Louisiana home with a full house tour, and Daniel pops in later to catch up on work, faith, and creative burnout.The conversation ranges from Joshua's church AV struggles (85-inch TVs vs. projectors) and his legendary key fob microchip disaster that totaled his Ford Escape, to a deep dive on the Scots language, the proper way to eat boudin chicken patties, and whether Minecraft counts as "cool." Joshua also unveils the hilarious original origin of Cyrus Jones — a weather-controlling farm girl who fights aliens — and his former plans to turn it into a 2D platformer. Plus: new gear, Narnia therapy, and why trade school isn't always the answer.Chapters: 00:00 — Intro & Recorded on Hazel's Birthday 00:31 — Opening Poem & War Zone 00:52 — Church AV, Big TVs, & Carrie's Move 05:00 — Conversion Vans, School Buses, & the Key Fob Calamity 12:48 — First Cars & Transmission Woes 16:40 — Joshua's Book Edits & Church Filming 18:40 — Carrie's Appliance Repair & Wildlife Work 19:30 — Scots Language Deep Dive: Bairn & Lum Reek 24:44 — Louisiana Food: Boudin, Hibachi, & Southern Buffets 27:44 — Minecraft Redstone & 90s Lego Space Nostalgia 30:37 — Carrie's New House Tour 36:54 — Hazel's 8th Birthday & Daniel Arrives 38:00 — Fast Food Debates & Snack Wrap Eras 42:30 — Gaming: Mario, Skyrim, Myst, & Dispatch 47:00 — Trade Schools, Work Ethic, & Apprenticeships 57:00 — The Rookie & Female Cops in Fiction 59:00 — Daniel's Work Struggles & Hydration Science 1:03:00 — Joshua's App Building & Game Maker Project 1:06:34 — Cyrus Jones' Secret Origin: Aliens vs. The Weather Girl 1:08:30 — New Gear: Webcam, Teleprompter, & Mic Arm 1:11:40 — Narnia as Soul Food & Wrapping Up 1:15:41 — Outro & Closing Poem
