Podcasts about Poet

Please SUBSCRIBE to Psychopedia wherever you are listening!   He fancied himself a poet, but in reality, was a murderous cannibal. José Luis Calva Zepeda, dubbed the Cannibal Poet, murdered at least one woman in 2007 - his girlfriend, Alejandra Galeana - and dismembered her body inside his home. When police entered his Mexico City apartment, they discovered body parts stored in plastic bags and human meat simmering on the stove.  Further investigation linked him to additional murders of even more women, marked by extreme violence and post-mortem dismemberment. The horror of the Cannibal Poet lies not just in the cannibalism, but in the psychology: a man who romanticized himself as a tortured intellectual while reducing women to consumable objects...literally.

"Bad ass."   Chatter rolls with Claude, David, Torie, and COB fave Louis Bayard.  They revel in the Olympics glow and mourn again Washington Post layoffs, the loss of "Book World" in particular.  Poet, teacher, and inspired author Rebecca Lehmann zooms in to share "The Beheading Game."   Few are brave enough to tackle the well-trod ground of Anne Boleyn, the first of Henry the Eighth's six wives to lose her head.  Lehmann does so with imagination, empathy, and provocative thinking. Could not put it down.

A lifelong lover of books and language, Danyelle shares how writing became both her refuge and her roadmap, helping her process difficult relationships, reclaim her sense of self and choose peace over confusion. She shares the catalyst that prompted her to write her debut poetry memoir, “All the Things I Never Said,” while reflecting on the role of sisterhood, community and self-trust in her healing journey. She looks back on how Tri Delta helped shape the foundation of the woman she continues to become. Listeners will be gently reminded that choosing yourself isn't selfish, that clarity takes courage and that even the hardest chapters can lead to something meaningful.

Planet Poet-Words in Space – NEW PODCAST!  LISTEN to my WIOX show (originally aired February 10th, 2026) featuring poet Barbara Leff.  Barbara, joining the show from San Francisco, discusses and reads from her books AND GOD SAID…A Brief History of Creation, and Undertow. Planet Poet's Poet-At-Large, Pamela Manché Pearce, also appears on the show. Born and raised in New York, Barbara Leff discovered poetry at the age of 12 and has explored the genre ever since.  Her work has appeared in various journals, including Fourteen Hills, Fault Line and Ibbetson Street. Her first collection, AND GOD SAID . . . A Brief History of Creation, finalist for the DA VINCI prize for the book cover, is based on the Book of Genesis and published by Broadstone Books.  Her second Collection, LUCK, a collaboration with visual artist, David Maxim is devoted to forms and her most recent collection, UNDERTOW was published in 2024, also by Broadstone Books.  She lives in San Francisco with her wife, Arlene Singer, and their dog, Baxter. barbaraleffpoet.com,  pamelampearce.comPraise for AND GOD SAID . . . A Brief History of Creation …AND GOD SAID... is a brilliant retelling of The Book of Genesis, one of the foundational texts of Western culture. The biases, gaps and silences of the original are given voice and texture by Leff's humane and compelling imagination which brings a fresh and passionate angle of vision to these familiar stories, transforming in the process not only our understanding of our religious past but also of the contemporary life which is in part a product of that past. This is a wonderful and exhilarating book --- Alan Shapiro, Author of ten poetry collections including Tantalus in Love and Old War Poems Praise for UNDERTOW ….These deftly crafted poems treat the quotidian, the metaphysical, and the magical- “as if I could grab a handful of stars from the sky and toss them on the tiles at your feet.” Sharply observed, heartrending and celebratory by turns, UNDERTOW conducts us through a lifetime of landscapes its fascination with orientation in shifting memory and place becoming our own.--Susan Cobin, Author, What You Choose

In this episode of the Italian American Podcast, Dr. Maria Giura, acclaimed poet and memoirist, joins Marianne and Patrick for an intimate conversation centered on her new poetry collection, If We Still Lived Where I Was Born. Reading selected poems aloud, she evokes childhood memories above her family's Brooklyn pastry shop and the rituals of Sunday gatherings that shaped her imagination. The discussion moves beyond nostalgia to the delicate art of writing about family while respecting privacy. Dr. Giura reflects on the weight of Italian American cultural expectations, the instinct to "keep things in the family," and the resolve required to tell one's story with honesty. She also speaks about the guidance of her mentor, poet Maria Masiotti Gillin, and the particular challenges and rewards of working as both memoirist and poet within a close-knit community. At its heart, the conversation considers the universal tension between loyalty and self-expression. Through memory, tradition, and careful craft, Dr. Giura demonstrates how personal history can be transformed into art that resonates across generations and cultures.   ABOUT THE GUEST: Maria Giura PhD, Poet, Author, Workshop Leader HER SOCIALS: Instagram: @mariagiurawrites Facebook: maria.giura.3975/ LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mgiura/   HER WEBSITE: Website: https://www.mariagiura.com/   HER EVENTS COMING UP: Monday, February 23, 6:30 pm: Co-featuring with poet Linda Kleinbub.

Shen Tao has always wanted to be a writer. For as long as she can remember, she's had ideas, developed characters, and written stories. It took her 9 attempts, 9 manuscripts, to finally get it done. Her debut is 'The Poet Empress'. It's a Chinese historical fantasy, blended with a love story and a murder mystery. It tells the story of a young woman, who enters the Imperial Court as a concubine, and learns poetry-magic to try and kill the heir to the tale. We talk about how she pushed on, through the failed manuscripts, and had an idea she knew would be a winner. A winner it was, eventually being bought in a 6-way auction.You can hear why she's prepared to chuck words away, why she writes a '0th draft', and how her routine has changed since going full-time.We chat about the pressure of getting it right, her unique inspiration blending both Chinese and Western myths and stories, and Shen shares her strong font opinions.Get a copy of the book - uk.bookshop.org/shop/writersroutineRead the newsletter - writersroutine.substack.comSupport the show - patreon.com/writersroutineko-fi.com/writersroutine@writerspodwritersroutine.com Hosted on Acast.

House Ag Committee releases new farm bill text, USDA headlines and a new report projecting more soybean acres in 2026 are some of this week's top agriculture stories. Today's show breaks down what the latest “Farm Bill 2.0” proposal could mean for producers and shares reaction from ag groups, including the National Pork Producers Council, which expressed appreciation for language addressing California's Proposition 12. USDA updates include a new $1 billion one-time assistance program for specialty crop and sugar growers, news that the number of U.S. farms declined by 15,000 in 2025 and expanded disaster payments for producers impacted by catastrophic drought, flooding and wildfires in 2023 and 2024. Additional headlines this week include a report forecasting steady growth in the U.S. agricultural equipment market and a new partnership between NASCAR and POET to promote zero-carbon bioethanol. In market news, a new CoBank report projects soybean acreage will increase nearly six percent to 86 million acres in 2026. In this week's interview, we discuss how pork producers are working to improve efficiency while maintaining strong animal welfare standards as they evaluate barn updates and expansion plans. Hyatt Frobose, North America commercial director at Jyga Technologies, shares insights on helping producers navigate renovation decisions amid policy pressures such as Proposition 12, while maintaining operational flexibility.

Preston & EZ BlueZ: The Poet God by WNHH Community Radio

Part of the reason my guest, French filmmaker Boris Lojkine, has been so amazingly successful with his films, most recently SOULEYMANE'S STORY (2024), is his humility and understanding of how to portray people not like himself.Instead of making a "Parisian film about a middle age couple in the crisis of existential bullshit" -- his words -- he has made feature films that depict the life of an immigrant. Paris was the setting for his latest film, but he wanted it to come across as a foreign ZIP code.This was all borne out of his roots as a documentarian, and I am simply in awe of his story. And the fact that he eschews all social media. You're living the dream, Boris.In this episode, Boris and I discuss:why he's gone beyond most French filmmakers to show France from the outside;how he got his start in filmmaking as a philosophy teaching, making two documentaries in Vietnam;how narrative films can lose the reality of documentaries;the reason immigration factors into so many of his stories;if he's the right person to tell an immigrants' story;telling the story of female protagonists in his films;how Sean Baker helped him get distribution;if he's disappointed that his previous films aren't available for streaming;what led him to create SOULEYMANE'S STORY and the risks he took in making the film;the documentary feeling in his films and how he handles actors;does he see it as a compliment that other people are making films with similar stories?what's next for him and how filmmakers should be more adventurous.Boris' Indie Film Highlights: I ONLY REST IN THE STORM (2025) dir. by Pedro Pinho; A POET (2025) dir. by Simón Mesa SotoMemorable Quotes:"I started to make documentary films because my ex-wife was making documentary films and I saw how she was doing and I thought, okay, I will try to do my my own films too.""I wanted to make films abroad. I was not interested in making a Parisian film about a middle age couple in the crisis of existential bullshit.""There is the question of legitimacy and sometimes people, usually young people, younger people than younger than I am from, from another generation, they ask me, what's your legitimacy? And now I answer my legitimacy is zero. But because my legitimacy is zero, I have to work more.""I have to listen, and I think the most important thing in my work is not to direct, but to listen.""I was talking with a Congolese director. And my neighbor in the restaurant, he told me, oh, you are Boris. I watched your film yesterday and it's an incredible film. Let me talk to my friend Sean Baker, and he talked to his friend Sean Baker, who made a tweet. And the week after, we had a distributor, you know, sometimes you just have to eat Vietnamese in a restaurant."Support this podcast at — https://redcircle.com/first-time-go/exclusive-content

Riding high after the huge success of the Wicked films, actor Cynthia Erivo returns to the London stage for a one-woman production of Bram Stoker's Dracula, in which she plays all the parts. Last summer was dubbed 'brat summer' by the press, with the word 'brat' entering the dictionary as an adjective - all in response to the pop album Brat by singer Charli XCX. In a new mockumentary, The Moment, Charli considers how to follow up on Brat, and how to deal with fame. And Kleber Mendonça Filho's new film The Secret Agent follows a man caught in the turmoil of the Brazilian military dictatorship. With four Oscar nominations and two BAFTA nominations, it's widely tipped to be one of the big winners in this year's awards season.

Fortuna Ehrenfeld ist eine der interessantesten Indie-Pop-Bands aus Deutschland. Dahinter steckt Martin Bechler, der mit Schlafanzug und Federboa auf der Bühne steht. Er ist der Kopf, der Texter, der Komponist. Erst mit Ende 40 hat er sich mit eigenen Songs in die Öffentlichkeit gewagt. Martin lässt sich gern von Emotionen überwältigen. Auf der Bühne, aber auch im echten Leben. Er ist ein Poet – nicht nur in seinen Songs, sondern auch im Alltag. Er besitzt Haltung und möchte andere mitreißen. Die Texte sind poetisch, skurril, witzig und wachrüttelnd. Die Songtitel heißen etwa „Grazie de la Kotze“, „Das letzte Kommando“ oder „Helm ab zum Gebet“. Wie die Worte in ihm kommen, erzählt Martin hier. Außerdem erfahrt ihr, wie das mit dem Schlafanzug angefangen hat. Humor ist eben ein ständiger Begleiter. So ist auch das 2026er Album „Live at the Hollywood Bowl“ natürlich kein Live-Album. Eine mitreißende, humorvolle, intelligente Begegnung.

In 1522, Anne Boleyn returned to the English court, and within a few years, she was already at the centre of political tension, whispered promises, and poetic legend. Long before Henry VIII began his pursuit, Anne was linked to two influential men: Henry Percy, heir to the Earl of Northumberland, and Sir Thomas Wyatt, courtier and poet. Did Anne Boleyn and Henry Percy secretly promise to marry? Was there a binding precontract, something that, under Tudor canon law, could have invalidated a later royal marriage? Why did Cardinal Wolsey intervene? And what really lies behind Wyatt's famous poem “Whoso List to Hunt” and its haunting line: “Noli me tangere, for Caesar's I am”? In this episode, I explore: Anne Boleyn's place in the Tudor marriage market The political implications of a precontract The Cavendish account of Percy and Anne The later denials in 1532 and 1536 The myths surrounding Thomas Wyatt The Spanish Chronicle story How Anne's reputation began forming long before she became queen Subscribe for more Tudor history deep dives, myth-busting, and documentary-style episodes on Anne Boleyn, Henry VIII, and the Tudor court.    #AnneBoleyn #TudorHistory #HenryPercy #ThomasWyatt #HenryVIII

One of my favorite kinds of conversations is the kind where it feels like you've known someone for a long time — even if you just met them.That's exactly what this week's episode felt like with author and poet Tanner Olson.From the very beginning, it felt like we had a lot in common. What followed was a fun and insightful conversation about writing, creativity, faith, and his new book, Getting Through What You're Going Through, which releases on Feb. 17, 2026.Tanner shares how he got into poetry through a love of music, specifically punk rock, and a desire to put words to what he was feeling. That eventually led him into spoken word, traveling the country, and building a career out of something he never originally planned.We also talk about what poetry actually is — or maybe more accurately, what it doesn't have to be. Tanner explains how he approaches poetry as a way to communicate something deeper that helps people feel less alone.A big part of our conversation centers around the heart behind his new book. Much of it was written during a difficult season in his life, including walking through unexplained infertility with his wife, and the general weight of living through uncertain times.It's a conversation that, if you're familiar with what Emily and I have endured the last few years, hit pretty close to home for me.We talk about what it feels like to walk through seasons where you don't know when or if things will change, the tension between hope and doubt, the questions you bring to God when the answers don't come, and how sometimes, the goal isn't to rush past what you're going through, but to actually walk through it, one step at a time.Tanner's book is rooted in the idea that even in the middle of pain, confusion, and waiting, there are still words that can carry you forward.If you've ever felt stuck in a season you didn't choose, or wondered how to hold onto faith when life doesn't look the way you expected, I think this conversation will resonate with you.To connect with Tanner, you can find him on Substack under Tanner Olson, on Instagram @writtentospeak, and his website writtentospeak.com.You can find Getting Through What You're Going Through wherever books are sold.—I'd also love to connect with you.You can find me on Substack at The Road Ahead:coledouglasclaybourn.substack.comYou can also find more of my writing at:coleclaybourn.comAnd on social media:Instagram: @coleclaybournTwitter: @ColeClaybournFacebook: facebook.com/ColeDouglasClaybourn

Send a textIn today's episode, I'm joined by Elton Anderson Jr., who is currently undergoing a powerful and very public identity evolution into what he now calls L10.A triple water sign in astrology, Elton brings a deeply intuitive, emotionally attuned lens to both life and business, something that's only been intensified by a near-death experience he openly shares during our conversation.What unfolds in this episode is a raw, honest dialogue about what it actually looks like to walk yourself through transformation in real time.Not the performative version, But the version where your nervous system, your voice, your expression, and your path begin to outgrow the identity that once kept you safe.Through his work in what he calls esoteric entrepreneurship, L10 is choosing to document and share the process of becoming  using content as both a creative outlet and a record of his own evolution.We talk about:The aftermath of a near-death experience and how it reshapes your relationship to purposeIdentity transitions and the grief that can accompany growthAstrology as a language for self-awarenessEmotional depth as an entrepreneurial advantageCreating content from truth, not performanceWhat it means to express yourself fully… before you're “ready”I was introduced to Elton through my sister-in-law, followed the intuitive nudge to connect, and what resulted was a truly magical conversation that I believe many of you will resonate with especially if you're in a season of shedding an identity that once made sense but no longer fits.You can follow L10 on Instagram  here:

In this episode, guest host Samiya Bashir writes… “Everyone is a hero to someone, or a beauty, or a problem, or all of the above.

Sacred Scar is a luminous, unflinching collection of poems that moves effortlessly between the sacred and the everyday. Drawing on the lives of saints, pioneers, ancestors, and the poet’s own family, Scott Hales explores the way faith, memory, and suffering shape a human life. These poems travel from ancient deserts to modern suburbs, from battlefield soil to baptismal fonts, revealing how holiness can emerge from pain, curiosity, humor, and the fragile work of living. With a storyteller’s eye and a historian’s care, Hales invites readers into a space where past and present speak to each other in striking, unforgettable ways. At once intimate and expansive, Sacred Scar is a meditation on belief-how it breaks, heals, transforms, and returns. Whether confronting grief, wrestling with doubt, or celebrating the strange grace of ordinary days, Hales writes with compassion, wit, and a deep reverence for the human impulse to remember. Purchase Sacred Scar Loved Ones is a luminous collection of forty poems that trace the arc of human devotion through the Christian virtues of faith, hope, charity, and love. With a voice both reverent and playful, Kevin Klein explores the everyday sacred—chapel cleaning and youth soccer, midwinter pruning and middle-school band concerts, pioneer grit and parental tenderness. Each poem invites readers to notice grace in unexpected places, discovering how holiness often hides in humor, hardship, and the humble rituals that bind us to one another. Rooted in scripture yet grounded in modern life, Klein's work is rich with vivid imagery, spiritual introspection, and disarming warmth. Whether he is contemplating the nature of prayer, celebrating family, or mourning with those that mourn, his poems open the heart to deeper compassion and connection. Loved Ones is a gentle but profound reminder that the divine is found not only in miracles, but also in the people who teach us to believe, endure, give, and love. Purchase Loved Ones The post Poet Death Match – Kevin Klein – Scott Hales – 1015 appeared first on The Cultural Hall Podcast.
