While interviewing Billy about the Faire and Agoura, Billy Scudder felt the urge to share two of his poems. The first was written the day the Faire was torn down and entitled "Pleasure: A Cosmic Current of Spirit by the Green Man. The other is his current work, as yet entitled, which starts,
"We think with vision,
before we can talk with reason."

Dave shares what he learned from Jess Winifeld, Stephen King and the US Border Patrol in this memoir about travelling to Canada with a couple of buddies in a van. With powdered incense purchased from the Renaissance Faire (there is a story there).

Steve Aultman, singing with the iteration of Dogwatch consisting of Shay Black, Jeni Beilharz, Roger Bramble, and Gary Keep, sings the classic shanty "Blow the Man Down", and then reads his own original essay "Apples are Folkloric".

This poem evolved out of an essay Jeffrey wrote about his Bowie-loving best friend, Kent, who in 1974, at age 15 left the stage of life too soon. This poem is harvested from it.

James reads his poem that is what his poetry means to him, and discuses a favorite word that he and his mother shared. The poem can also be found on the back page of his book, It Could Be Verse.

Janey spends an uncomfortable afternoon in her garden.

Jane reads a poem and talks about word choice. And sweat.
