We’ll be discussing Will’s poems and issues they raise such as Free Speech, Cancel Culture in Leicester, Transgender Activism, Covid Restrictions, the UK Lockdown impact on the elderly, unrequited crushes, energy drinks, unpleasant visits to the dentist, the separation of the old from the young, mental health madness, and problems with the hyper-controlled society.

Also listen to recorded dialogues from Greg Scorzo's debut novel 'Love Before Covid,' - traumatic (sur)realism at it's best. An experimental and extreme collection of real-time dialogues, traversing a complex moral maze of how love is being impacted by gender politics in these polarised political times. Exploring the nature of love and drawing focus to the dark side of romance, procreation and sex, it deals unsparingly with unpredictable behaviour, abuse, depravity and forgiveness. To find out what healthy love could be, this book explores what it shouldn’t be. "Where love rules, there is no will to power, and where power predominates, love is lacking. The one is the shadow of the other." - Carl Jung
