Well, well! It was a long week after St Patrick's Day weekend ladies and gentlemen, but we have climbed out of our beds finally to bring you a fresh new episode This week, Leon delivers on his promise of blowing Ryan's mind with a James Joyce love letter. Just...wow.  We climb into the world of Brendan Behan for a little bit before we talk about Jan Brierton's new collection 'Everyone Is A Poem' and how her work has captured the mood of of the Irish people (especially the mammies.) We introduce Swedish two-tone poet Josefin Friberg as well as share a beauty of a poem by James Pollard Ryan shares his relationship with clothing and why having affordable options for the disadvantaged is key helping those people into better futures We wrap it up with Leon going into the labratory and creating a poem to help our Agony Aunt contributor with the issue if being overrun by stupid, pointless emails We hope you love this one.
