Poking Around
Poking Around
Join hosts Hannah Monsour and Zoe Branch as they joke around about poems and poem around about jokes. Both professional poets and amateur comedians, the artists explore the funny and the profound — often in the same breath. Each episode includes two new poems written on the spot and read based on themes explored in the episode.
