We're reprising this episode from Season 3 for the holiday break we're talking. But more importantly, we're serializing a story of Reid's in Meat For Tea: The Valley Review, starting with the December 2024 issue Cup.

Writer Reid Messerschmidt has a great and diverse chat with Elizabeth about, well, a lot of stuff. A whole lot of stuff. No kidding. Lots of stuff. Great Stuff. And Reid reads some of his works. A Do-Not-Miss!

We've got long-time contributor to Meat For Tea, Charles Rammelcamp, in the house! (Well, figuratively.)

Charles and Elizabeth get pretty deep, Charles reads a bunch of his work, and they go far into a chat about the state of the nation now.

It's great. Grab a snack and a beverage and settle in.

This is a fun one! Author of Be Still: Poems for Kay Sage and Juice , with a forthcoming book coming soon - and Editor-in-Chief and Managing Editor of Thimble Literary Magazine Nadia Arioli and Elizabeth get into some serious/deep talk about form, Nadia reads some of her work (including a piece that is seriously both, well, randy, as it is funny and insightful.)

A good time is guaranteed for all!

We welcome author Matthew J. McKee back again to the Meat For Teacast, straight from Japan! Elizabeth and Matthew discuss his new Atmosphere Press Book Flicker, the inspiration and creation of it, and Matthew reads a few excerpts as well!

As usual, the conversation travels many paths!

Please note, Matthew McKee is a sponsor of Meat For Tea: The Valley Review this quarter. This gets them a baked-in ad in the podcast for the quarter. This in no way means this episode is sponsored! Just a coincidence! We don't pay-to-play. Thanks for understanding.

It's the spoken word from Le Cirque des plumes tueuses!
