Love the variety of emotions and styles in these poems. Many of the poems are not what I'd usually say is 'my kind of poetry', but that's the great thing about it- I can discover amazing poets who I wouldn't otherwise know about. Definitely recommend to anyone interested in performance poetry.

Excellent spoken poetry performances. Reveals the depth of amazing talent out there. Breaks poetry out of the cobwebs. This is a must get podcast.

Inspiring, uplifting, challenging, and insightful poems from around the world.

This is an awesome resource for any poet who wants to learn from other poets and connect with the performance and slam poetry community. Awesome artists all! Thank you for bringing the poetry revolution to the world!

This podcast changed my life for the better, as a writer. My best friend turned me on to it. If you're having writer's block, listen to 1 or 2 episodes and start writing.

Tons of different poets from around the globe, frequent new episodes, and great hosts make for an excellent podcast. Check it out!

I have recently gotten into performance poetry and spoken word and Indiefeed has been an incredible resource. The number of amazing poets I have heard making my way through the Indiefeed collection has been invaluable. I love the commentary, bio's, interviews and of course the poetry! Great...Read full review »

The main host has it all wrong. The focus should be on the poetry. Half the length of the podcast should NOT be devoted to reading a biography and bibliography and reviews and lists of achievements off of various websites. Let us hear the poetry reading, let us hear your reaction to the...Read full review »

ks2012ks via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/11/13
Poetry from a wide range of styles and perspectives. The high points feature gorgeous performance and intelligent, sensitive writing. The low points feature dull but sincere filler: cliche, low bitrate, advertising for the next product. Well worth listening for the good parts. (And if you're...Read full review »

the poems are great, the poets are great, the art is great, everything you could want in a performance poetry podcast is here except what's added. after each poem ends the awful hosts talk to the poets and all the magic is gone all the words that were sewn into your skin just kind of fray and...Read full review »

Could not advance as a poet without such a valuable resource
hamishxpetersen via Apple Podcasts · New Zealand · 02/28/13
So delicious you will lick the drips off your elbow and make Mongo tea from the crumbs.
Idsmith via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/24/12
I adore this podcast series. I become immersed in the poems, and with such genius onboard as Anis Mojgani and Sarah Kay, it is just glorious to hear their words. Fabulously thoughtful commentary by Mungo after each poem well worth a listen.
Flynter via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 04/29/12
I discovered my love of spoke word, several poets whom I now call friends and my own talent through this podcast. Love it!!!
Anaannie65 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/24/12
I've been listening to this podcast for almost a year now, never missing an installment. I love waking up in the morning to hear a new poem and a new poet a few times every week. Thank you for providing me a glimpse into the spoken word community Indie Feed :)

Inspiring and always impressive
PoetB via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/27/11
Love this podcast and I love Mongo. It is nice to have the guest hosts as well for a different p.o.v. My only criticism is that most of the poets tend to come out of the NY area and I would love to hear more from around the country and world.
RopeBert via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/15/11
This podcast rocks, and it is as simple as that. Poetry is what all of us has inside of us, Where it is at is up to us to find and bring out. But here is a place that point out your road... Whether Buddy or Anis or Shappy is the one Or Cristin, or Alix, or Sierra make you happy And fill your...Read full review »

I stumbled upon this podcast about 2 weeks ago, I have already listened to half of the 900 + episodes they have available. Mongo has helped me rediscover a love for poetry and shown me a side of it that they don't teach you in school.
Charles Beane via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/30/11
I came across IndieFeed Poetry podcast quite by accident a few months ago. Since then, I have listened to quite a bit of the extensive collection (over 900 podcasts) of IF's pool of shows. Having listened to several poetry podcasts in the past, IF is by far my most favorite and the only poetry...Read full review »

This is nothing like the poetry your English teacher read from dusty, unused books from the deep recesses of the library you've never stepped foot into. Raw and relatable. Simply amazing. From the tough personal subjects to the bizarre to the inane to the political, there's something for...Read full review »

This podcast is awesome. Introduces me to a different side of poetry
Burgersaregross456 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/04/11
Indiefeed has brought my spirits up so many times. It's changed my perception of poetry and often challenges me to better my work as a poet. I thank Mongo so so much! And wish this podcast can live long!
E. Rowe via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/22/11
The diversity of poetry shines through on this podcast. I update almost every day, never knowing if I am going to be inspired to action, tears, or laughter. Mongo has consistently chosen pieces that move me in some manner. A great show!

I am addicted to this podcast
Lsmarc via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/15/11
I have subscribed to several performance poetry podcasts over the years (indiefeed being the first I ever heard of), yet indiefeed continues to be my favourite. The unbiased variety provided by the channel is so fantastic and creates an awesome place to go when either first looking through slam...Read full review »

The only podcast I need, this has opened my eyes to dozens of poets. I even managed to catch the Night Kite Revival because Mongo clued me in to the tour schedule. This is perfect.

Any fan of spoken word poetry will find what they are looking for in this podcast. As a High School Speech Team coach I recommend this program to ALL of my students, both as an example of how effective poetry can be when read aloud, and as reference material for pieces they might like to perform....Read full review »

this site is diligently groomed to present the best array of poets. great springboard for inspiration and best way to plug in, get solitary with some great works. been a listener for a few years and have enjoyed how the poets tweak their styles over time.
etherkind1975 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/11
Non fermatevi alla prima poesia, ascoltatene altre; ne troverete molte in grado di parlare direttamente a voi ed emozionarvi.

Thank you for existing! I am now in love with hydropods and scott woods!
Babybox57 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/09/10
I've loved this podcast for years. Start with Buddy Wakefield, Derrick Brown, and Anis Modjani, and let Mongo take it from there. There are so many great poets...artists out there I would have never heard of without this podcast!
SLAPPY GREEN via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/19/10

Good entertainment

Love the Naima poem. As a big Coltrane fan, it's a natural fit to me. Thanks again Mongo for your tireless and enthusiastic presentation of these ultra-cool and dare I say ultra-important works. Doug Rohde (rhymes with Bodhi ... satva, ha ha) Minneapolis

I would like to hear more from cj Leon, the suicide kings, and Nathan curnow. Awesome job Mongo!!!!!
Luke Davison via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/17/10
I have always had a love for poetry and the beauty of well-delivered word, but until I happened across this podcast I had no idea that such a thing as performance poetry even existed. From the first show I was hooked. No other podcast has kept me such an avid follower and shown me such an...Read full review »

This is a superb podcast. It's delivered very regularly, and features a single piece read at a live session, so you get to hear the audience reaction to it. This is not way-out-there or hard to listen to, rather it's accessible and thought-provoking. As well as the reading, you get given quite a...Read full review »

This is the best podcast in all of iTunes.
Dproff via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/10/10
Always one of the highlights of my week when sat at my computer. I recommend subscribing to anyone who is a fan of poetry in all it's forms. Even if you're not, subscribe anyway - you'll soon be swayed by the variety of poets IndieFeed showcases for us to hear. Great stuff.
Simone via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/30/09
I am a poet myself and it really helps me to find my true feeligns when I can listen to those who I admire(i.e.: Alix Olson, J.W. Baz, Buddy Wakefield, Carlos Andres Gomez, Big Poppa E., and Derrick Brown). I love listening to all of the different genres and ways the authors express themselves....Read full review »

This has quickly become my favorite podcast. Stunningly great poetry from today's top spoken word poets.

At different times, these poems have...Read full review »
