Poetry Corner

A podcast full of words from mouths full of yoghurt.

Ian McMillan 10/04/2023

Ian McMillan Sharing stories from his past, poet, writer and presenter, Ian McMillan explores what kickstarted his life in writing. He teaches me about The Elusive Trout and how he uses parameters and daily rituals to keep honing his skills as a wordsmith. Ian steps into Poetry Corner to read The Computer’s First Christmas Card by Edwin Morgan and I follow suit with my own nonsense poem inspired by Andy Kaufman.

Covering landscape, nature, van-life, the changing poetry scene and a serious bout of writers block (PTPD). It's my turn to read a poem through a mouthful of yoghurt as I head into Poetry Corner with a classic sweet Müller. Chat recorded in February 2020. /episode/index/show/poetry-corner/id/21108209
