Ep 11: Suppressing Emotions
The second half of season one is underway with a timeless poem. On this episode we explore William Blake's poem "A Poison Tree" that details the consequences of suppressing anger. The poem is written in old English, which brings a few challenges along the way. So sit back, relax and I'll see you on the next one.
