For our inaugural episode, we talked with poet Austen Leah Rose about her new book Once, This Forest Belonged to a Storm, and invited her to lie to us about aeronautics.

What is flight?
"Air in conversation with air. That's flying."

We also discuss: storms, motherhood, mushrooms, sky dancers, physics and Cocteau's La Belle et la Bête.

PS: We know the Björk video is from the 80s, not the 90s—this is a podcast of LIES! Please don't @ us.
