And the winner is..On today’s episode, we reveal the winning poem for our competition in collaboration with The Poetry Edit. It’s been incredible to read the pieces that have been submitted, and we can’t wait to share all three finalist’s with you.As well as the competition, we talk about THAT interview between Jools Holland and Grian Chatten as we get a real-life example of how a poet can twist and turn normal folk into knots. And we loved it.Fontaines D.C are one of our favourite bands, and we talk about Grian’s inspiration through poetry and the story of how his father introduced him to the world of verseWe’ll definitely have to do another competition so watch this space!Poems from the show Luke Kelly - For What Died The Sons Of Roisinhttps://open.spotify.com/track/2skM6PxyViYGfP2FGIaxG9?si=5ce5da046d1b42b5Grian Chatten - Bighttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aiLk6G5N-3YSapphire Allard - I’m Flicking Past News Stories Like Men on Dating AppsInstagram - @sapphirerosewriterMiles Pascall - I WonderInstagram - @milespascallAnna Nixon - A Stabbing By NumbersInstagram - @annanixonwritingsSupport the showOriginal music by Matthew Keating Artwork by Paddy DowneyIntroduction by Lisa DowneyProduced by Ryan Duggins
