"Poetry! What is it good for?" podcast is different. In other poetry podcasts -- a poet reads and talks about her poetry. "PWIIGF" brings together two poets who appreciate each others work to engage in a lively conversation and poetry reading on a topic that fascinates them. Along the way we find that poetry is good for a lot -- mostly to keep us human.
Moderators Rebecca McKean and Alan Winson -- lovers of poetry -- and Chris Brandt -- a writer of poetry -- keep the conversation informal, critical and emotionally connected.
If you enjoy poetry and want to meet some amazing poets and people -- give PWIIGF a try.

Our producer – Alina Larson – told us about Nancy Kangas’s Emergency Poetry Clinic in Red Hook, Brooklyn. It seemed clear to me that America needs an emergency poetry clinic; I wanted to see what that was about. and so on a recent Tuesday morning I took a subway and a bus and a walk to 166 Van Dyke Street, Brooklyn. Earlier that morning I looked up “Nancy Kangas” and discovered a creative who defies categorization – Nancy K rides the wind of her whims.
I arrived at 10:17am -- Ms. K was ensconced on the other side of a store front window in a tiny, colorful -- Thru the Looking Glass -- office.
Nancy Kangas and her poet friend Karl Michael Iglesias will be on Poetry Good For podcast in the very near future.
