Prosody — Pittburgh’s radio program for contemporary literature, produced and hosted by poet Jan Beatty, has created a streamable archive of their past shows! Currently, you can listen to episodes as far back as 2006. More about Prosody:
“Now in its twenty-second year, Prosody was founded by writer Mary Radford. Poet John Schulman shared co-hosting duties with Mary for several years. In its early years on the air, Prosody featured only local writers – but as the program grew in stature, writers of national and international note began appearing. Guests have included U.S. Poet Laureates, Pulitzer Prize winners, National Book Award writers, and MacArthur Grant recipients. These include Robert Pinsky, Marilyn Hacker, Eavan Boland, Gerald Stern, Michelle Cliff, Sonia Sanchez, Sandra Cisneros, John D’Agata, Barry Lopez, Jean Valentine, Eve Ensler, Chuck Kinder, Nikki Giovanni, Marilyn Chin, Alicia Ostriker, Sekou Sundiata, Yusef Komunyakaa, Alice Notley, Dorianne Laux, Lewis Nordan, Lynn Emanuel, and Ed Ochester.”
