Geezcast is your audio companion to Geez magazine, a quarterly magazine at the intersection of social justice, faith and culture.
This week we speak with Wendy Herring about her poem Last Word, which was published in Geez 48: Fear. Join us to hear Wendy read her poem and to discuss what it is like to tell other people's stories through poetry.
This is our second episode and our first interview for the Geezcast! Today we'll be chatting with Miriam Meinders, a long-time supporter of Geez and guest editor of Geez issue 7: Monsters in our midst. I caught up with Miriam to talk about that issue and about the idea of our culture of monsters. I really enjoyed hearing about how our monsters today stack up against our ancestral monsters. I also enjoyed dodging her question to me about the monster that I fear the most. We love your feedback, so please get a hold of me at chris@geezmagazine.org or find us on facebook https://www.facebook.com/GeezMagazine/ . We found a partial case of Monsters in our midst hiding at the back of our archives last summer, so you may still have a chance to get your copy.

Well hello there. I don't know if I would really call this our first episode, maybe better to say zeroeth. Have a listen about why a podcast is important and remember to come back at the start of May to hear our first interview. Thanks for checking us out!
