Arji's Poetry Pickle Jar is a place where we pickle the poems you'll love. Each week we invite a published poet into the studio to share a poem they love. We dismantle and dissect it, we open it up so you the listener can see it in a completely new way. This podcast is for newcomers and professionals, for teachers, young people and for everyone in between.

What a poet Fiona Benson is, I have all three of her published collections to date and so enjoy reading them. Her values always seem to be so right and I certainly would not want her to feel on the margins as she needs to be at the forefront. You never know, the Taliban might listen to her. Arji provides such a wonderful and thoughtful platform for his guests. Can high... more
The Pickle Jar is a very rewarding listen. Arji is a very sensitive and supportive interviewer and his guest poets are consistently interesting, enjoyable and informative. I am so pleased to have found this podcast and am very grateful to Arji for his knowledge and his preparatory work for each episode.
If you are in any way scratching the itch of poetry then you don’t need a reason to listen to Arji and his guests, just start listening. It’ll reward you for your efforts from the start.
Just lovely
