172. DERYK “DIRTY” SOULE
We end things back where we started. Deryk Soule opened Dirty’s Outhouse Poets’ Café in the mid 1990’s, a place for burnout boomers, angsty gen-Xers, assorted misfits and wanderers to gather, over caffeinate and express themselves. Without it, there never would have been a Kzoo Poetry Slam.

171. MARIA McCRAY
A former U.S. Marine, teacher, mentor, member of eight consecutive Chicago slam teams, honorary godmother to a generation of slam poets and one of the most incredible women to ever grace the Kzoo slam stage; there was no one more beloved and respected than Mama Maria McCray.

170. SCOTT WOODS
Of all the people I’ve met during my poetry slam years, there is no one I respect and admire more than Scott Woods. This week’s episode is all Scott Woods. . . You’re welcome.

169. CASSIE POE
This week’s feature on the Kzoo Poetry Slam-cast is the superbly talented Cassie Poe from Detroit. This is what I like to call a “dessert-first” episode, one of those rare occasions when our feature had to be back on the road for reasons that I can’t remember because it was twenty damn years ago and probably wasn’t any of my business anyway. So you’ll be hearing Cassie’s feature set first followed by the slam.

168. SONYA RENEE
Except for my slam spiel at the beginning, this week’s episode is all feature and no filler. . . Sonya Renee ( https://www.sonyareneetaylor.com/ ) winner of the 2004 National Individual Poetry Slam, 2005 DC/Baltimore Grand Slam, and 2006 Four Continents International Slam.

167. BLAIR (with DALE WILLSON)
David Blair (1967-2011) Musician, singer, songwriter, poet, friend. . . Put simply, Blair was one of the best of us, as an artist and as a human.

166. KZOO SLAM TEAM 2006
The 2006 Kzoo Poetry Slam Team, Kirk Latimer, Gabriel Giron, Sarah Lawrence, Leigh Fryling and Drachen Birch, take over the show before their journey to the National Poetry Slam in Austin Texas.

165. SHERI STREETER
It’s time for another musical interlude. In this NO-POETRY EPISODE of the Kzoo Poetry Slam-Cast, singer songwriter Sheri Streeter plays a set of acoustic originals. . . I’m also happy to report that Sheri is still out there making music in Louisville Kentucky. You can find Sheri Streeter online in the usual places: iTunes, Amazon, Spotify, YouTube, etc.

About KZOO POETRY SLAM-CAST
The Kalamazoo Poetry Slam was founded in 1998. Our goal was to bring a community together, to promote and celebrate the art of poetry through performance. Our primary venue was Kraftbrau Brewery where we thrived for eight years. Each show consisted of an open-mic, a slam competition (where poets perform original works and volunteer judges from the audience score them on a scale from 1-10), and a feature artist. Feature artists were sometimes local poets or musicians, but more often than not poets on tour from other cities around the U.S. For nine years Kalamazoo sent a team of poets to the National Poetry Slam. We also helped to found a Midwest Poetry Slam League, and one of our former team members, Dawn Saylor, appeared twice on HBO’s Def Poetry Jam. After more than twenty years, over 150 hours of recordings from our archive are being presented in podcast form.
