Aaron and Dave dive into an old private journal to read poems written in high school. Along the way the two have found themselves joined by some incredibly amazing people, all willing to share some of their own bad poetry. Experience a mix of self-reflection, humor, self-deprecation, great conversations and just maybe a half decent poem!

episode 4: A Walk & Revelation (w/Paul Lutter)
Aaron is late to recording and Dave is early to leave but Paul Lutter puts up with the both of them. While the hosts have had English teachers and college professors on the show, this is the first time they have had a college prof who was one of their teachers. Paul taught Dave and now Dave gets to taunt Paul...if only Paul chose poems that weren't so darn sentimental ;) The three discuss the wonders if fatherhood and children's imagination and how all that might be harder to capture in words than first meets the eye.
