The Poetry Society

sam sax, American poet and queer Jewish icon, chats to Joelle Taylor about starting out performing in loud bars, reads his poem 'Haematology', and shares a brand new poem about the devastating California wildfires. Plus, the tough poetry questions are put to sam sax from some of the 2018 participants of SLAMbassadors, The Poetry Society's youth SLAM poetry showcase. We'll also hear poems from SLAMbassadors Noah Jacob and Beth-Ellen Hollis. This podcast was recorded in partnership with Out-Spoken. www.poetrysociety.org.uk http://www.outspokenldn.com
