On this episode of BMU, the guys are joined by Olatunde

Osinaike, and preview his forthcoming book Tender Headed. Kyle and Edwin offer their impressions of the poetry as Olatunde shares how his experiences brought him to this work. The discussion centers the nuances of masculinity and manhood, being in process, and the overlap of their STEM educations and identities as creatives.

Olatunde Osinaike is a Nigerian-American poet, essayist, and software developer. He is the author of Tender Headed (Akashic Books, 2023), selected by Camille Rankine as winner of the 2022 National Poetry Series.

Tender Headed is available for pre-order prior to its December 5th release date at https://www.akashicbooks.com/catalog/tender-headed/, and can be purchased everywhere thereafter.
