Ep. 11 - Skinny Jerry Garcia and Nixon read poetry

We are overwhelmed with gratitude that we were able to spend this episode with Pulitzer prize winning critic, poet, and teacher Lloyd Schwartz. We talk about his life, his poetry, his teaching, and the many incredible writers, poets, and people he's met. Lloyd is a professor at UMass Boston and the poet laureate of Somerville, MA. We also cover a couple of pieces in the magazine about a blackface confession, and the latest season of True Detective.

Stick around for the poetry of Richard Milhous Nixon, too. Lloyd gives an excellent reading.
