Episode It’s About Time — Mark Connor on Poetry, Family, and Fighting for Connection Cover

It’s About Time — Mark Connor on Poetry, Family, and Fighting for Connection

In this episode, writer and boxer Mark Connor joins me to talk about his debut memoir and poetry collection, It’s About Time (Millions of Copies Sold for Dad) — a heartfelt work inspired by powerful life experiences and the impact of his father's death. We explore the threads of family, heritage, Catholic faith, love, and the raw humanity that runs through his verse. Mark opens up about his journey from the boxing ring to the written page and back, the urgency to share his work before it was too late, and why human connection will always be worth fighting for.

Episode Discussing Poetry with Justin Wiggins in the Spirit of the Inklings Cover

Discussing Poetry with Justin Wiggins in the Spirit of the Inklings

Join me for a rich and heartfelt conversation with my friend Justin Wiggins as we explore the world of poetry—both our own and the work of literary giants. In this episode, we reflect on our recently published poems in Poetica and dive into the influences that have shaped our voices. From the transcendental cadences of Emily Dickinson and Walt Whitman to the mythic depths of C.S. Lewis and J.R.R. Tolkien, and the raw confessional power of Sylvia Plath and Anne Sexton, we unpack what poetry means to us—and why it still matters. Whether you're a fellow poet, an avid reader, or someone curious about the creative process, we invite you to sit in on this candid, thoughtful exchange between friends and writers. 🔔 Don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe for more conversations on literature, creativity, and the writing life. #Poetry #Literature #JustinWiggins #Poetica #EmilyDickinson #WaltWhitman #C.S.Lewis #J.R.R.Tolkien #SylviaPlath #AnneSexton #WritingCommunity #ConfessionalPoetry #PoetsOnPoetry

Episode Why Former Agnostic Writer Justin Wiggins Believes in the Christian God Cover

Why Former Agnostic Writer Justin Wiggins Believes in the Christian God

In this new series, guests and I explore evidence for the Christian God in relation to science, other religious beliefs, and personal experiences. Each conversation is unique and, hopefully, helpful for anyone on the journey of faith, curious about Christianity, or simply entertained by two finite humans struggling with complex (and often unknowable) topics. Part I finds author Justin Wiggins, formerly agnostic, detailing his journey from questions and doubt to confidence in Christ. We lightly tread a few common philosophical questions, compare personal experience with early Christine doctrine, and admire the evidence for Christ in art, literature, and the "sehnsucht" or longing for purpose and a new life in faith. Justin Wiggins is the author of eight books, including: Surprised by Agape Surprised by Myth Celtic Dawn Celtic Song Celtic Twilight Marty & Irene Tír na nÓg Ragnarok If you enjoyed the conversation, you can find the Describe Your World podcast on most major podcast platforms as well as YouTube. ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ▬ ✔ Please support Justin in all of his endeavors! ► Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/justin.wiggins.18/ ► Amazon: https://www.amazon.com/Justin-Wiggins/e/B09ZSW2HGK?ref=sr_ntt_srch_lnk_1&qid=1664105632&sr=8-1 ► Clarendon House Books: https://www.clarendonhousebooks.com/justin-wiggins ► Imspired: https://impspired.com/impspired-authors-2
