In this uniquely timely episode of Poets Lie, Alexandria and Amelia ask poet T Bambrick (author of Intimacies, Received, 2022) to explain everyone's favorite American institution of higher learning: The Electoral College. Who goes there? How do you get in? What's the graduation rate? How does it put the "mid" in Midwest? Listen to find out (maybe).

We also get into: "Finland," Florida, skunks, alligators, Elizabeth Bishop and her ghost, ziplines, poetic lines, The UnTrimmed Bush, prose poems and/or essays, ex-long-distance-lovers, feeling sad.

Check in next month for something totally and refreshingly unrelated to current events.
