Arji's Poetry Pickle Jar
My podcast is something I am immensely proud of. For over 50 episodes I have been pioneering some of the best poets in the world. Each week a poet steps into the booth to talk about a poem they truly love, each week we hope you love it too.
So proud to have names like Raymond Antrobus, Kwame Dawes, Hannah Lowe, Yomi Sode and many more.
There is a whole plethora of free poetry podcasts for your listening pleasure!
Arji's Poetry Pickle Jar
By Arji Manuelpillai
Arji's Poetry Pickle Jar is a place where we pickle the poems we know you’ll love. Each week we invite a published poet into the studio to share a poem they this is brilliant. We dismantle and dissect it, open it up to the sky so that you, the listener, can see it in a completely new light and we hope you will grow to love it as much as us.
This podcast is for newcomers and professionals, for teachers, young people and everyone in between.
