“I’m here for art and poetry not nauseating cliche’s about postmodern chicks and racial metaphors in the guise of cats. Gah. Ghastly. Gone.”

“Just re-listened to Kwame Dawes episode re the Walcott poem- such a lovely interlude- Kevin Young draws out the sublime and humane from the poets and it’s just a reward to listen to gorgeous poems and smart and sometimes joyful commentary”

“Love Kevin but a podcast host he is not. Ars poetica, the beloved, embodying—that’s the three things he repeats ad nauseam. Be better”

“Kevin Young is very good as a replacement for Paul Muldoon. The quality of the program continues to be excellent. However, the program’s subject matter and discussions are too frequently focused on race…. and only one race. At least the Poetry Foundation’s podcast commonly showcased the...”Read full review »

“Quite a marked shift from the original poet to the present. Just as the New Yorker has shifted greatly so does the podcast. Both are knowledgeable and insightful but I hope the New Yorker stays true to art and poetry and not modern political divisions, pseudo activism and identity politics. ...”Read full review »

“I appreciate the format in particular; together discussing another’s work, then the guest’s. I’ve found these reflections on the nature and joys of poetry so valuable.
Thanks for the care and attention, these are incredibly generous and thoughtful conversations.”

“I started listening when Paul Muldoon was host. His voice, oh his voice. I was a big fan and then Kevin Young took over and the podcast got even better! Kevin has a wonderful talent, in both his poems and on the podcast, for teasing out what’s REALLY going on with something. He situates the...”Read full review »

“I’ve listened to every episode. Beautiful conversations, especially since Kevin Young’s start. Also— if you’re new to it definitely go back and listen to the conversation between Kevin and Paul M. (Kevin being the guest poet, rather than the host-beautiful.) I really appreciate the way Kevin...”Read full review »

“Each episode is a hoard of treasures worth (repeated) listening.
It’s like being on the moon looking down-up at the world, its uncanny, nuclear connections laid bare and unclabbered, illuminated with the roughnesses of language.”

“I enjoyed this podcast when Paul Muldoon was the host, but I love it even more with Kevin Young. I found it a little tiresome that Muldoon spent so much time discussing the influences on a poem, so I find it delightful and refreshing that Young hardly does that at all -- he seems to engage more...”Read full review »

“Poetry podcasts can be as hit or miss as poetry itself. Former host Paul Muldoon has a great voice and often times the discussion about the poems are better than the poems themselves. Jury is still out on new host Kevin Young.
I do like how often John Ashbery poems appear on the show. I suspect...”Read full review »

“The podcast is off to a wonderful, stirring start. Two powerful poems well read.
I'm wondering if a "short form" poetry podcast might be possible which is essentially just one poem without other commentary. It might be in the range of two to right minutes.
Perhaps when this podcast...”Read full review »
