It is time for a POETRY SLAM! Pages of Discourse is introducing a new segment this week that is all about poetry. Poetry Slams will explore a real-time discussion of a FIRST read through of a poem, whether it is one of your hosts' or from another poet. This week, we look at a contemporary poem called The Night Migrations by Louise Glück and one of Emily Dickinson's late poems, untitled. Jacob and Evelyn stumble into a surprisingly deep conversation about the afterlife, the role of prayer, and humanizing poetry. Take a listen!


Look out for an EPIC Page Match coming to your feed next week!

Hello listeners! This week we are delving into the world of science fiction with the titan that is "Dune" by Frank Herbert. It is a beautiful novel that weaves a compelling web of political intrigue, action, insane technology, spiritualism, and a hero's journey. Join Evelyn and Jacob as they discuss their highlights! Also, they definitely muse over whether a certain film franchise borrowed some ideas.

Yep...we're back. We know, we know, but this time it's for real. We are so happy to be recording and settled. What can we say? Life is crazy. Join Evelyn and Jacob in a tribute episode to one of the greats. In honor of Cormac McCarthy's recent passing, we wanted to do a special episode on one of his novels. Join us for a discussion of the screenplay, turned novel, turned screenplay-- No Country For Old Men. It speaks for itself with the multitude of awards and credits it has won over the years! We talk about how McCarthy turns Western tropes on their head, duty, responsibility, and the absolutely terrifying Anton Chigurh.
