Reviews
- Poets Being Real
I’m a poet myself and one thing I hate is poets acting better than others. That does NOT happen here. This is real discussions with real people with poetry as a reason to talk. Keep on!

This used to be a phenomenal podcast. New hosts are fine, but nowhere near as compelling as the previous ones.
Apple Podcasts5CloudyGrammarianUnited Statesa year ago - Wow and wow and wow
Ajanaé and Brittany are phenomenal hosts and expand beautifully upon the legacy of Franny and Danez. Their questions are thoughtful yet still accessible to those who aren’t in the poetry world. I love how comfortable they make the guests, and their conversations really involve getting a deep, unbuckled knowing of artists and their craft. Their energies are also so inviting. Love it! Love them!
