Episode Description:
Mike and Dave team up with based poetry chad Taerus Atellus to piss on the idea that poetry is gay. This talk ranged over a wider area than a Bronze Age mannerbund, into how how poetry is superior to prose, how it fosters great men of history, and why it's the most important (but also neglected) vehicle we have to produce a masculine renaissance. Along the way we do a bunch of readings of poetry both ancient and modern. Quit being a homo and get in here.
