Poking Around: The Podcast

Hannah Monsour and Zoe Branch are both professional poets, amateur comedians, and the kind of old friends who yap about absolutely everything.

Every Tuesday, the two release a three-part, hour-long episode that weaves the hilarious, the profound, the bizarre, and the wonderful. Every episode introduces listeners to a poem by another poet, as well as a joke told by one of the dynamic duo. The experience is capped off by an on-the-spot poem written and shared by the hosts and inspired by the myriad topics.

Listeners are encouraged to write their own poems as well, making the experience feel like a fun friend hang turned writing prompt.
