This was one of the few highlights of last week. A joy to record and hopefully a fun listen for you all as well. Thanks @ninapraterpoet.bsky.social for coming on the show!

There are so many online options...and wondrful podcasts that, even if they don't have space, are so kind if you reach out. @ofpoetrypodcast.bsky.social @mybadpoetrythepod.bsky.social @inthreepoems.bsky.social just to name a few...

Long time friends of the show may remember her first appearance on Season 1 Episode 17 "Beyond the Binding," but here she is making a triumphant return... its Abbe! open.spotify.com/episode/1zPo...

Reach out & ask... I've been on podcasts, interview/reading series that I didn't know much about until I started watching/listening before I sent queries. Look at what peers are doing... For instance, I found out about @mybadpoetrythepod.bsky.social from listening to @taylorbyas.bsky.social .

Did trolling Joni Mitchell fans have the desired effect for our guest??? Probably not... which is why "Photo Stock" somehow found its way on our show... Listen to our newest episode with guest Erick Garske here: open.spotify.com/show/486Nozu...

This was a fun little exercise in vulnerability. Exorcising the demons of old bad poems that have haunted me for years!

Friends, after a need to reschedule back on Halloween, we were finally able to record with the great @krlatour.bsky.social! From a yearbook treasure to a seasonal horror, her bad poems have range. open.spotify.com/episode/3ied...

We're back! This time with the "Roll for Joy" dungeon master pastor himself, Rory Philstom. These selected poems definitely could have used a higher Performance check roll before writing... open.spotify.com/episode/1nZ8...

What's this? A raw new recording to be edited?? Hey I think we (finally) have a new episode coming!

What’s that? A surprise “A Word?”! KSR and Chuck Hobbes, an award winning essayist and attorney, sit down and talk about writing and a those red pen wielding moms who shape who we are. Click here! x.com/press_roi/st...

O where does the pressure all go? One extra faucet and there is no flow This barely a trickle Puts us in a pickle Oh... NOW is when the plumbers show. Oh, and Dave's car broke down in the middle of nowhere... Unfortunately unforeseen events has caused this week's recording to be rescheduled.

Ive never had more fun than on this podcast. I also brought one of the worst poems you could imagine to this show and they actually went through the whole dang thing with me. Theyre the kindest poetry lovers.

Friends! We are having so much fun with all of you amazing people. Let's keep the party going!

Look what showed up in the mail! Considering how incredible they were to chat with about bad poetry I cant wait to read their good stuff!!! @djvorreyer.bsky.social and Devondra Banks.

Also found this book from @pintsncupcakes.bsky.social at The Raven in Lawrence.

Always love seeing guest's works out in the wild!! Spotted @taylorbyas.bsky.social twice while walking around Lawrence, KS.

I had more fun on this show than should be allowed. Hope it comes through in our conversation about my terrible poems. (Sorry, not sorry, Dave, for making you cry...)

We were privileged once again to have another amazing guest on our show. Make sure to give @djvorreyer.bsky.social 's episode a listen! www.mybadpoetry.com/s8e4

We had so much fun chatting with Devondra Banks for our latest episode. You will probably have fun too giving it a listen! www.mybadpoetry.com/s8e3

Somebody bring your bad poetry and hang out with these guys. It's fun!

Friends, we are in need of a guest tomorrow who can share their embarrassing poems (ones that should never leave the drafts folder) with the world... mayhaps it be you?

Always fun to find a guest's work out in the wild! Aaron sang this all last season with a choir and failed to connect the dots. But tonight he definitely recognized the lyricist!! Make sure to listen to Tony's episode that dropped yesterday.

We're Back! And we started this season with the lyricist Tony Silvestri. Probably best known for writing the lyrics to Eric Whitacre's "Sleep," but that barely scratches the surface. We had him on to share the less than stellar works... www.mybadpoetry.com/s8e1

Have bad poems in your drafts folder or old journals??? Please consider coming on our show! We are excited to be scheduling for season 8. DM us for a link to sign up! Return guests more than welcome!!

Just finished recording our first episode for the start of Season 8!!! (Also will be our 175th episode, but who is counting). Starting off with another amazing guest that you won't want to "Sleep" on. Keep an eye out for it dropping on Monday.

Friends it is once again national Bad Poetry day! How are you celebrating this joyous holiday? If you feel so inspired to dig up your old drafts, we just set up our recording schedule and sign up sheet for Season 8 and would love to have you and your bad poems on! #BadPoetryDay

For anyone who envies the sure thing of born knowing, Flowers reaches across indecision and reminds us that, for so many born in a world without options, awakenings are slower, and hurt that little bit more. @clemflowers.bsky.social

Well a delay at the airport let Aaron finish editing an episode of the show! This is a wrap for Season 7!! Excited to see where Season 8 takes us.... but for now... we look back with nostalgia. www.mybadpoetry.com/s7e20

Friends, it looks like the host and editor of My Bad Poetry is going to be at MSP airport for half a day (long flight delay)... if you're traveling though say hi!

Mitch is a perfect podcast guest! He has our highest recommendation.

If you have missed new episodes over the past couple Mondays rest assured we are still planning on bringing you the best of bad poetry... summers are just hard to schedule. Also we are getting close to scheduling for a season 8 starting in the Fall. So if you want to guest on the show let us know!

No new episode this week.. but we did get this new book! Congrats again @mitchnobis.bsky.social

Loved being on this podcast again, and Aaron and Dave are the best. Thanks, guys!

On the week of his poetry collection debut @mitchnobis.bsky.social dropped by to share some poems that... did NOT make the manuscript. Make sure to check out The Size of the Horizon, or, I Explained Everything to the Trees! open.spotify.com/episode/1WXV...

It's publication week for my first poetry collection. If you read poetry, you might dig it. If you don't but still want to support me and my press (the wonderful @matchfactoryeds.bsky.social), your library might want it.

A NAWP co-founder book is out!

New Week=New Episode This week we had not one, not two, but three new guests! Listen to the co-founders of Scribente Maternum as they share the many ways one could "write like a mother" + some funny kids' poems to boot! www.mybadpoetry.com/a-limerick-h...

Sorry for the delay, But we are "kind of" back today Next week will be new With guests too! Until then, we hope what you hear. May bring you just a little cheer. www.mybadpoetry.com/four-hastily... P.s. this mini-episode was inspired by "Dino Poet" a graphic novel by Tom Angleberger.

NAWP co-founder @mitchnobis.bsky.social also hosts this online reading & interview series w/a new season starting this week!

No Such Thing As A Fish & My Bad Poetry both dropped Socrates related episodes in the same week! Maybe somethings in the water... hope it's not hemlock.

Yesterday, I celebrated the release of @robertallenpoet.bsky.social's new chapbook Aphasia alongside Stefanie Kirby and Justin Lacour with a virtual reading. You can watch the reading here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dmO4...

Was this how Socrates wanted to be remembered? Probably not but... this is what we got. open.spotify.com/episode/6BQK...

A new episode is coming tomorrow morning, that may be one of Aaron's favorite yet. Only because... well you will soon hear!
