Billy Collins joins Katie and Tim for a conversation that we hope feels like one of his poems: open-armed, slyly funny, and disarming in the best way. We dive into the idea of poetic hospitality—how a poem welcomes its reader in—and explore how Billy pulls off that rare trick of being both approachable and profound.

At the Table:

Katie Dozier

Timothy Green

Billy Collins

Dick Westhiemer

Joe Barca

Nate Jacob

Brian O'Sullivan
