Synopsis

Coming to you from Smile Radio studio inside the Freehand Hotel in NYC, it's co-hosts LA MARKS and Tania (TAz) Asnes of Ars Poetica with Daily Dose of Poetry, a short podcast for National Poetry Month (April!) 2019. We invite a wide range of noteworthy and interesting guests to tell us about a problem in their life, work, or the world that could use a "dose of poetry." Then we whip up our responses on the spot in short-form poetry - fresh perspectives a.k.a. "poetic prescriptions" on the topic at hand. New episodes of the show are released at 3pm every single day for the month of April via Smile Radio, and video versions are released on YouTube via Lisa Ann Markuson.
