This week, we go all cross-genre with a longer piece by Loreen Niewenhuis. Check out her website at LoreenNiewenhuis.com. Our readers this week are John Babshaw, Alex Copeland and Amy Watkins. In the after party, Alex talks with potters Ian Jones and Gabriel Isaac. That whooshing noise you hear behind them is the raku kiln burning. You can read Ian's pottery blog and see his work here. Gabe's work is here.

We've done twelve episodes since we started Red Lion Square in June. We're going to call that Volume 1, take a couple weeks off and start Volume 2 on September 7. Thanks for sticking with us as we found our stride!

We're back! We took the week off last week while Amy was on vacation and Jae was working way too hard. Did you miss us? We missed you.

This week, we bring you a little international flavor with poems by A-Gonzaga, Jill Kelly Koren and JR Pearson, plus, in the after party, a song from Aaron Roche's soon-to-be-released album "Plainspeak." You can preorder the album here. Thanks to John Babshaw for being our guest reader.

Update: I made a mistake reading A-Gonzaga's bio and said he was Norwegian-born. I should have said he is "Nigerian-born, Nordic-educated." I'm sure either country would be happy to claim him. :)
