  • That’s my DJ!

    Major takes me back to the 1980s when I was a teenager and when I was judged, and when I judged, based on the radio station I listened to. The voices of my favorite DJs are recorded in my memory like a beloved mixtape. I counted on them to wake me up, introduce me to the latest songs, and lull me to sleep. I listen to Major every morning. He is my current day DJ. I count on him for inspiration, wisdom, and messages so beautiful I am dazzled all day long.

I love the voices and reflections on the poems. The intros are often poems themselves. We listen in the car as t... more

  • Awesome podcast

    I’m so grateful for this podcast. Major Jackson frames each poem in such a poignant way, and I look forward to his stories as much as the daily poem. I am invariably moved to thought and feeling. Truly soul nourishing. Thank you to Mr Jackson and his production team!
