This week, academic, poet laureate of Cookeville, Tennessee, and mom Dr. Erin Hoover of Tennessee Tech University sits down to speak with us about her a couple of her poetry selections: her debut Barnburner and No Spare People. Hoover also talks to us about her inspirations as a poet, her life as a single-mother and academic, dealing with generative artificial intelligence in the classroom, and even reads a couple of poems for us.

Thanks for listening!
