We are very excited to announce that faculty member Frank Paul has started a new podcast, called “Frank Show.” Frank shares insights, questions and personal anecdotes from a mystical and psychological perspective. Central themes are authenticity, creativity and self-integration, and the discussions are direct and warm. This is not self-help or advice. Each episode is meant for listeners to just think about how these ideas relate to them and their experiences. Available on:

Ep. 21 – The service of the artist, part 3: Beyond the Confessional – Frank Show
I talk about the mode and history of confessional poetry, how it has lost some of its edginess over time, mediating the distance between artist/writer and viewer/reader, the difference between performance and offering, and the way I visualize coming forward as a speaker.
