Along the way the two have found themselves joined by some incredibly amazing people, all willing to share some of their own bad poetry. Experience a mix of self-reflection, humor, self-deprecation, great conversations and just maybe a half decent poem!

Bad Poetry & Airplanes Won't Leave Washington (w/Clifford Brooks)

Aaron and Dave find themselves chatting with the founder of the Southern Collective and editor-in-chief of Blue Mountain Review, Charles Clifford Brooks III. Yet the bad poems he brings to the table prove even editor-in-chiefs can't find their muse every time. From dead puppies to misinterpreted meanings, this episode doesn't fail to take flight (unlike one poems protagonist). So press play and LIVE, DANCE, STAY. Won't you?
