Episode 1 - The Pilot

Poetry.

It’s a bit… difficult, isn’t it? All those words! Line after line of them. And some of them don’t even rhyme. What’s the point of it?

Join Matt and Rich for a series of weekly podcasts in which Rich does his best to learn all about poems and Matt does his best to teach him. (I don’t want to give too much away, but think “lacklustre Good Will Hunting”).

If you don’t know the first thing about poetry.If you’re a poetry scholar who wants to go over some familiar ground. Or if you just like to laugh at failure.
