The third part in our series of Pushcart Prize nominees. Christian Livermore is back for more discussion on her writing, her books, and more. A fascinating conversation! Author of Girl, Lost and Found, We Are Not Okay and The Very Special Dead, Christian also reads from and discusses her upcoming novel The Execution of Tertius Lafontaine as well!

Join us for a special afternoon at Ana Bandeira in Northampton MA. Dave Dersham hosts the Second Sunday series there, and for this one, his guest is poet and artitst Kim Keough. They have a lovely back-and-forth between Kim's reading and Dave's songs that we believe you'll enjoy as much as we did. Ana Bandeira is a lovely cafe/confectionary/coffee house, as as such, this recording naturally has all the sounds one would expect in a bustling cafe!

What a fun ride this conversation is. Another in our series of 2023 Pushcart Prize nominees! Elizabeth and writer, poet and artist Jane Muschenetz talk a little writing process, a little teaching, a little current-events-politics - including some of her history emigrating with her parents from Ukraine - and a whole lot more. She reads from her upcoming book Power Point, and her 2023 book All the Bad Girls Wear Russian Accents, and more. You gotta stick around!

This is a super engaging episode, where Elizabeth and writer/storyteller/teacher/professor Andrew Shelffo get into a lot of deep discussion about pedagogy, writing discipline and practice, dreams as inspiration - and a whole ton more. Andrew also reads a terrific story from a past edition of Meat For Tea that garnered accolades when he read it at that corresponding Cirque. Do stick around!

This episode features author John Yamrus' third visit to the Meat For Teacast. This time around, he and Elizabeth focus mainly on his most recent Meat For Tea Press book People and Other Bad Ideas but also, as is the usual, go off on tangents - writing and music in particular are covered. It's a lovely time - do stick around!

For this episode, we have a delightful recording of John Sheirer reading from his book For Now: One-Hundred 100 Word Stories live at Splendor Solis Books in Northampton on December 8th, 2023. A big treat, this reading, plus a lot of background on his writing approach, a fun q&a type session at the end, and more! Do stick around!

We're pleased to share with you an excerpt of this lovely and fun podcast we were a part of recently.

"This special episode features podcast alums, and Beatlephiles, Jack Canfora, Elizabeth MacDuffie, Mark Alan Milller, and Steve March-Tormé.
I learned so much in this panel episode about the original Fab Four, and made some great memories. I can't wait for future collaborations! Stay to the end for some fun trivia!"

In this episode we feature a terrific live recording of the opening reading for the release of the Florence Poets Society's Silkworm journal, issue 16, Wide Open. A bit cinéma vérité sonically, but we think that's great! Sit back and enjoy. Host Tommy Twilite is a charm.
