PODCAST UPDATE: NEW EPISODES INCOMING

This post is for our dear TWWR Podcast Listeners – aka the most patient audience in the world. I know it has been an age since our last episode was published but it’s for good reason, I promise!

Trapper has been living his best life in Louisiana and I’ve recently relocated to England. Wild times, I know. So I figured, what better time to relaunch the podcast? While I have dreams of one day resurrecting the format Trapper and I created, this time around I’ll be shaking things up as I take on solo podcasting for the first time ever.

Listen to the podcast update for more details (and some mild rambling). Also, get ready for a spooky episode coming out on Halloween!

More coming soon.

Podcast 009.2: Victor Séjour

In this episode, we take an inquisitive peek into the multilayered work of Creole playwright Victor Sejour—a dramatist who wielded satire like a weapon against 19th-century social prejudices and used real life tragedy to instigate audience introspection.
We analyze one of his plays as part of our Morality theme, and tear into meaty issues like codified racism, the many facets of motherhood and self-identification.
Please join us as we try to read a little more, write a little better, and explore the human condition—together!
