Ear DON'T Read This: 'Beautiful Edinburgh' (1881) by William McGonagall
S2E21 What better way to celebrate the Edinburgh Fringe kicking off than with some awful poetry? William McGonagall (1825-1902) has gone down in history as the worst poet of all time. Deserved? You be the judge. This week, Ash is joined by special guest Bella to appraise the life and work of this local cult poet.
Howking, incidentally, means digging.
