Thoughtful questions & good poetry

I read a lot of poetry but don't get to listen to contemporary poetry much outside of going to readings. It's so nice to be able to discover new poets through their own voices. This format, where you can learn about the poet in a longer episode and then listen to poems in subsequent podcasts is a smart approach.
