Derek Messink and Barb Basaj Featured on VERSEd

Bringing performance poetry to radio every week. This is VERSEd.

On this week’s episode, we sit down with Derek Messink, of Gilded Cages, and Barb Basaj. These two poets double as musicians and share a “common thread”. Also making a brief, surprise appearance is another VERSEd alumni.
