It's good, but the website doesn't match the podcast feed? can't access the transcripts of the poems.
Obnoxious

Your poem posted on Wednesday May 18th was so obnoxious I’m leaving a one star review and then unfollowing your podcast forever. While the subject matter was fascinating and the talent of the author (Kearney) is undeniable, the loud and distorted audio was an unfun surprise for me (while I was driving) and my baby (who was sleeping). If you want to highlight experimental and unique works of poetry like this, you should. But a brief word of warning is not too much to ask. In this era of trigger warnings and content warnings, I don’t think I am being unreasonable to expect a poetry podcast to be a safe listen. I’m disappointed.
Please include the author’s name in title

I’m very glad this podcast exists but it’s maddening for there to be so many inconsistencies re where or if the writer is credited. It’s really annoying because some episodes aren’t searchable by name and then it’s time consuming to look inside each episode. Please just put their names in the titles.
Great

Thank you for providing poetry with no intro music or contextual explanation. I fall asleep to this podcast.
