E292 with TERRI FAVRO
Hey folks! Today we chat with amazing Terri Favro about her newest, The Sisters Sputnik!
As I’m away for a bit, I have scheduled everything instead of trying to do it from another country. However! I just learned that Soundcloud won’t allow me to embed the way I normally do, as the link won’t be live until the day of broadcast. So! Follow this link instead! Or search it up on podcasts. Enjoy!

E291 with GURJINDER BASRAN
Hey folks! I got to speak to the excellent Gurjinder Basran (it’s been a while!) about her latest “cheery” novel, Help! I’m Alive. We had a good time, the book is great, you should listen!
E290 with BRITT WRAY
Hey folks! The world is…well…things have been better. For some folks, the reality of climate change alone has made it difficult to deal. If that sounds like you (or even if it doesn’t) you should listen in to hear author/blogger Britt Wray talk about her new book Generation Dread: Finding Purpose in an Age of Climate Crisis.
E289 with PHOEBE WANG and MADHUR ANAND
Welcome back to another poetry show! This week it’s Phoebe Wang (Waking Occupations) and Madhur Anand (Parasitic Oscillations). Hey, those two titles rhyme. Neat.
Great books and great conversations, listen in!
E288 with LAURIE D GRAHAM and TOLU OLORUNTOBA
This week another double shot of poetry! (Sorry. I think that “double shot” thing stuck in my head from too much classic rock radio in my youth). We’re joined by Laurie D. Graham (Fast Commute) and Tolu Oloruntoba (Each One A Furnace). Oloruntoba’s last collection, The Junta of Happenstance, won the Governor General’s award for poetry which was exciting because we shared a publisher in Palimpsest Press! Enjoy the show.
