Listen here to my first podcast from Lyrical Surgeries, where I invite the philosopher, Graeme A. Forbes, to talk about the intersection of poetry and philosophy. Topics addressed include overcoming writer's block, employing technical language in poetry, exploring phenomenology and lived experiences, poetry and its value/ function / meaning, cultural privilege and the appropriacy of seeking philosophical guidance and consolation during personal crises. Many thanks to Graeme for his generosity and the conversation. To get in touch with Graeme for a philosophical consultation, head over here. https://www.linkedin.com/in/graeme-a-forbes/
