In 2017, Olivia Gatwood picked up a new hobby: listening to true crime podcasts. Living in a first floor Boston apartment at the time, Olivia was quickly consumed by a new fear: a man breaking into her apartment and murdering her in her sleep. In order to work through this fear, Olivia wrote about it in what would eventually become her poetry collection “Life of the Party.” A conversation between Olivia and Celisia, today's episode explores how warranted fear can become harmful paranoia, why so many women are obsessed with true crime, and what ‘justice' looks like in a society obsessed with punishment.

Mahogany L. Browne (@mobrowne) shares WOKE: A YOUNG POET’S CALL TO JUSTICE, written with Elizabeth Acevedo and Olivia Gatwood and illustrated by Theodore Taylor III. This evocative picture book companion to WOKE BABY is an emotional powerhouse, laying groundwork for conversations about advocacy, anti-bias practices, intersectionality, disability acceptance, youth empowerment, and more. This book was constructed to hold a volume of voices, meaning that these poems can and should be read by more than one voice at once. That was a new thought for me, choral poetry. And then I realized what might be already obvious to you, which is that when we combine our voices in unity we shine a brighter light on the dark places, we make more room for everyone at the table, we, to borrow a phrase from a friend, bring the distant near.

Madison Griffiths is an artist, poet, activist and podcaster. She was co-host of the podcast No Chill. And is writer, producer and presenter for her newest podcast Tender, the story of what happens when a woman leaves an abusive relationship. I'm so thrilled to welcome Madison Griffiths into the Castaway Studios for our first studio episode of 2019. Our previous ALL DOG themed episode was held at the wonderful Merri Creek Tavern. Our next live show will be held on Wednesday May 1st, 2019 at Merri Creek Tavern. Put it in your diary. Madison tells me her origin story as writer which all began when Vice published an article of hers in 2016 called An Open Letter to My Vagina: Sex, Pain, and Vaginismus In 2017 Madison and Lucinda Price had a live online conversation called No Chill as part of the Digital Writers Festival. This went on to become a six part podcast series presented by Pedestrian TV. On the three year anniversary of leaving an abusive relationship Madison had a powerful dream that motivated her to start her own deeply personal and powerful podcast called Tender. Madison then tells me about her experience performing on a poetry open mic for the first time. And we discuss how vibrant the spoken word scene is in Melbourne. The best resource in Melbourne for things spoken word is Melbourne Spoken Word. Go there to discover upcoming events, workshops, competitions, publishing opportunities, mentorships, EVERYTHING relating to spoken word. There were many amazing creative prompts posted on both our Facebook and Instagram pages this week. Thank you so much. Keep them coming in. At the moment, every week on the show we will give away a More Than A Whelan koozie (stubby holder) to my favourite creative prompt of the week. Madison reads an original poem of hers called A Meadow in response to the prompt : Hair. Its power, its stigma, how it changes us in the eyes of others AND ourselves. This was supplied by Matt H Kennedy. Thank you Matt. You are More Than A Whelan Muse of the Week! I chose two prompts to inspire a new poem. The prompts were... Breakdown in communication by Johnny Moretti. The risks and joys of sleeping naked by Annie Molenaar. AKA Celebrant Lady Love. and Unholy Matrimony Flip It and Reverse It. I nearly always sleep naked. I say nearly because sometimes I will fall asleep in my undies or t-shirt or both. But every time I awake, I am liberated from my clothing. Sometime during the night I have removed them in my sleep and I never have any memory of it whatsoever. I imagine myself wriggling from the cocoon of my clothing bit by bit during the night and sometimes I forget about exactly where that clothing goes and I’ll think where the hell have all my undies gone? Until it’s time to change the sheets and there they are wedged at the end of the bed, sometimes two or three pairs Curled and cuddled up like sleeping cats. When alone in a house, as I often up when house sitting, I will often rise naked, and walk bleary eyes into the kitchen to turn the kettle on, maybe whack a muffin or two into the toaster. Sometimes I’ll even drop a banging hiphop playlist on to put a little boost into butt and a little sass into my strut as I start grooving around the kitchen. One such morning at a house sit in Carlton I was doing exactly this when I suddenly thought I heard a sound above the banging bass thumps of Missy Elliott. When I looked up , there was the cleaning lady lugging a vacuum cleaner down the hallway. She had her head down and hadn’t noticed me yet. I panicked I was in open ground there wasn’t enough time to flee. I seized the closest object I could find to protect my modesty. So when the cleaning lady finally looked up, there I was holding a frying pan in front of my groin. The owner told me the cleaning lady wasn’t coming until the next day, the cleaning lady was told something else. A breakdown in communication of mortifying consequences. She dropped the vacuum and returned from whence she came. I fled to my room and shut the door. Missy Elliott kept booming throughout the house, singing “Is it worth it? Let me work it I put my thing down, flip it and reverse it” Our Golden Muse of the Week this week is Annie. Congrats Annie!

Impolite Conversation: Religion and Politics

Dan is in China this month, so our student Ashley Van Fleet is in his chair giving the show a dose of youthful energy. We talk to Ryan Cragun about his work examining how the LDS church has changed the way it talks about LGBTQ folks in the past 40 years, and then William Bradshaw chats with us about his work on the factors that help explain which GBTQ men are more or less likely to have trouble reconciling their sexual and religious identities. And in One Last Thing, Ashley has been watching slam poetry and Tim is getting ready to watch a celestial show. Some of the things we talked about this month: Tim mentioned The Angel and the Beehive by Armond Mauss, and Dr. Cragun referenced the work of John Dehlin. Ashley mentioned the new Wonder Woman film, and also poetry by Haley Moseley, Victoria Morgan, Kayla Q, Olivia Gatwood, and Sarah Kay. And finally, Tim is, ironically, over the moon about the upcoming solar eclipse.   0:00-1:40: Opening 1:40-27:36: Cragun interview 27:41-38:23: Bradshaw interview 38:27-41:18: Van Fleet OLT 41:19-43:45: Hill OLT 43:45-45:02: Closing
