    Laughton

    It’s the early 1960’s in New York City where the poems of Charles Frank Laughton take the listener on an unforgettable emotional trek through his unique lens of the city, its beauty, its brutality, its absolution and damnation.  On the waves of Martin’s voice, the sounds on the streets, everyday scenes playing out on brownstone steps and corner markets come to life with people and seasons and distant longings. And all to a unique blend of jazz and bebop and blues music.

    Kid at Heart

    Great grand kids are something to brag about, especially for a great grandparent like Martin and in this episode he brings 3 of them to the mic for some fun and poetry. Martin also shares a story close to his heart about the legendary actor Marlon Brando while filming “Apocalypse Now” in the Philippines. Of all the actors Martin has had the good fortune of working with Marlon was by far the most endearing and truly embodied a kid-at-heart spirit. Steering into the theme of this show, Martin recites a series of children’s poetry from Robert Louis Stevenson, a few cheeky quotes from Mark Twain and a modern-day article by W.D Erhart as well. This truly is an episode for the kid in everyone!
