Cloudy Day Art #70 - Interview with Robert G. Parent
December 10, 2006
This week’s poetry podcast is an interview with fellow poet and Association of Poetry Podcasting member Robert G. Parent of “The Write Stuff” poetry podcast.
I asked Bob to share two poems:
- One poem that is older, but you keep pulling out to reflect on.
- One poem that you just wrote, but you’re not sure if you like it or not.
Listen in to hear what poems he chose and why he chose them.
We also talk about video podcasting, how he started podcasting, his unique style of writing, experimenting with poetry, and much more.
Bob is currently a contestant in Slam Idol Podcast contest #15 with his video poem “The Judgment of TV”. So, make sure you head over to the Slam Idol website, view all six short videos, and cast your votes! (Simon also sent in a short promo message specifically for you the Cloudy Day Art listener. Thanks Simon!)
This week’s outro song:

Thanks Will, appreciate your gracious nod.
Great site here, wish I’d thought of it
You’re welcome, Robert.
I really like what you’re doing with video and poetry.
I wish I thought of THAT!
Hey Will and all,
As I listened to the beginning of the interview, I noticed that I kept saying Audible, instead of Audioblog. Sorry, just wanted to correct that.
Bob
PS,
Hope your Christmas was a good one.
Thanks for the correction, Bob.
I had a great Christmas and I’m looking forward to a great New Year!
I hope you have the same.
I found you first last summer when I was in a hotel room with wireless. I was working on a website and found listening to your podcasts a good way to keep going. I lost you after that - I was in the stone age with dial-up - but looked you up again once I got high speed.
Keep it up!

Thanks, PJ!
I’m glad that you came back.
Your post actually reminded me to dig into your site again. Thanks!
