How Poetry still Matters in the Age of Social Media

April is National Poetry Month, and WUGA’s David Oates, host of the show “Wordland,” joins us to talk about some of his influences and why poetry still matters in the age of social media.

Martin Matheny was formerly WUGA's Program Director and a host and producer of our local news program 'Athens News Matters.' He started at WUGA in 2012 as a part-time classical music host and still hosts WUGA's longest-running local program 'Night Music' which was heard on WUGA and GPB Classical. He is now the Morning Edition Host for Delaware First Media.
