in this short episode i talk about jesse prado's poetry. jesse is a poet in the san francisco bay area, whose work makes me laugh and kinda feel relaxed, like i want to just notice the interesting things that happen in my life maybe? in the show i mostly look at jesse's 2014 chapbook, i've been on tumblr, from be about it press.

the beginning of the podcast includes a brief update on happenings in my life, then i get into jesse's chapbook at 1:25. i share a bunch of my favorite excerpts and discuss the structure of the chapbook, how it can be read as one poem or many. then after 8:30 i end the podcast with another short personal update.
