What does the Bayeux Tapestry reveal about medieval life? Why did it take nearly half a millennium fo ...

I recall reading somewhere that Allen Ginsberg when he lived in NYC, used to take a daily photograph of his backyard from his apartment kitchen window. This podcast is my attempt to do something similar, but with sound instead. In these episodes you’ll hear the crumple of paper, sound of birds chirping, and sometimes me reading you a favorite poem.
