Demystifying Poetry Podcast

Join poetry professor Tara Stubbs as she talks all things poetry with poets, educators, anthologists and even “poetry pharmacists”. In each episode, Tara asks her guests about their relationships with poetry, their favourite poets, and the ways they use poetry to think about wider issues that relate to the world we live in. The conversations are informal and wide-ranging, but they all try to “demystify” poetry—challenging and removing some of the barriers to poetry that we often find in education, community and society.
