We talk teaching - coaching - writing, single-sex education, Paul Zarzyski, plus a deep dive into sex (consensual and rapey), masculinity (was Bond born knowing how to drive that loader?), and Empire (stop using rich, Victorian, white women as an excuse to kill everyone and take their shit), in the original 007, Dr. No.

Rodeo poet Paul Zarzyski talks about falling in love with the sound of words, writing songs with Ian Tyson and Wylie Gustafson, how to become an extreme creativist, and reads a brand new song lyric.
Paul Zarzyski talks about watching westerns with his father, how he became a bronc rider, giving of yourself as an artist, adopted humpback whales, and more!
I consider the connection between Poetry and revolution and we hear a politically charged poem by Rodeo Poet, Paul Zarzyski.
Paul Zarzyski describes the kind of life worthy of poetry in this second episode featuring his work.
Paul Zarzycki's wild and energetic style fills his poetry but also our conversation. Hear him describe what's harder than riding Rodeo and how he comes back to writing poetry after being away from the blank page.
