You'll be glad you listened
I first heard about this podcast on NPR, and I'm glad I listened to the whole season! It is thoughtful in two ways: kind and full of thought. The dilemmas are so varied, and you're bound to find yourself in some of them. The poems are surprising as well. It's a great way to experience new poetry, whether you are a big reader or new to poetry. I like the host's opening monologues/anecdotes as well. I highly recommend this podcast, and I'm anxious for the next season! I could see this becoming part of my regular routine--listening each Monday morning on the way to to work for example. I wonder how the dilemmas will change over time. Some of these are pandemic-related. How will poetry offer support in whatever challenges tomorrow brings?

Life is like a box of poetry…
What a unique little show! It is so inspirational as you never know quite what you’re going to get as a poetic response to problems or concerns that listeners share. Grab a cup of tea, put on your comfy slippers, sit back and relax and let Luisa introduce you to some great poets who provide their thoughts and insights to our woes and worries.
Two ears up!!

Beautiful and lyrical
When I need a break from all the hyper rational, self-help books of the world... or the long form fictions that I'm supposed to read, I turn to poetry. This podcast is beautiful and hits the spot on topics that are so relevant to the challenges of today. Great listen.

Quality content all around
I have only heard episode one, but I am excited to hear more. The idea of a random stranger revealing such a personal vulnerable part of themselves is fascinating enough, but when a person-poet can speak to that vulnerability with a poem of their choice- the connection goes deep. So, I love the concept, and the professional production of every part of this delightful and meaningful show. Only slight improvement would be to slow down the pace a slight bit so I can better digest the words- there is so much to ponder here, Thanks for creating such a meaningful podcast.

Brilliant. Move over Ann Landers!
I'm so happy this podcast exists. It's innovative, creative and delightful to listen to. As someone who appreciates poetry, but doesn't always "get it," this podcast not only makes poetry accessible, it makes it applicable to daily life! Each episode has left me feeling inspired and eager to hear more.
