Podcast Overview

Verseful is a podcast about the verses in our lives and how we feel them. Meaning, it is a podcast about poetry. It is a rather informal and inept endeavor by me and my friend, Meghan, to have fun talking about poems and how we relate to them. This podcast is for those of us who do not necessarily feel well-versed in poetry but who like to feel the poetry of life nonetheless. Perhaps it would be fun for you to eavesdrop on our feelings. (Taking a shot for every time I wrote "feelings"? There is more of where that came from ;).
