“The "close but not too close reading" descriptor that is used to open these podcasts is accurate. It is typically three folks chatting about what they like about a poem, its structure, word choices and some historical information about the author and the poem. Al Filreis does a good job of keeping the discussion moving as well as from becoming too pedantic. The only recurring weakness is that the sound quality of some of the readings (all of the poems are read by the author) are not that good. The audio quality of the discussions is fine.
It would be helpful, if copyright permits, to have the poem presented in the lyrics part of the podcast. Have been able to find them on the web.”
