Episode 268: There’s Always Event Horizon

Matthew Belinkie, Peter Fenzel, Jordan Stokes, John Perich, and Matthew Wrather overthink your listener feedback.

This podcast is dedicated to the memory of John Hollander, a great teacher and scholar.

Rippedy-Pippidey
Dr. John Hollander
As of last Saturday
(much for the worse)

can’t be described as the
metapreeminent
living exponent of
metrical verse.

—Jordan Stokes

Figgeldy Higgedly
Dr. John Hollander
Maitre of verse forms that
Others would poach,

Stirring with brilliance,
Est Quod Benedictus, the
Hollandaise-sauciest
Lyrical coach.

—Peter Fenzel
