There's a Poem in That
LA WEEKLY calls it a "holy wellspring" -- Award-winning poet Todd Boss helps strangers discover the poetry in their most intimate stories in this narrative documentary podcast unlike any other. Each episode of TAPIT opens on a new guest stranger, condenses three hours of their conversations with Todd, and concludes with his reveal of an original poem written expressly for them. You'll laugh, you'll cry ... You'll want a poem of your very own! Think there's a poem in your story? Call TAPIT's Haiku, Hawaii, listener line: (808) 300-0449.
