#7 - Wild Roof Roundtable Discussion

For the May episode, editor Aaron Lelito leads another roundtable discussion, covering a few favorite pieces from Wild Roof Journal’s March issue (Issue 7). These works available to view at wildroofjournal.com/podcast.

Joining the discussion to share their insights are Chris Vogt, a professor of English at SUNY Erie Community College, along with Paul Smit and Adrienne Rozells. Paul is a fiction writer, who has had two short stories appear in WRJ, "Burnt Avocado Toast" in Issue 1 and "The Water Fall" in Issue 7. Adrienne is a returning roundtable guest and is a member of the WRJ team.

In this conversation, we take a deeper dive into two visual pieces that align wonderfully with the themes that emerged in the March issue. In addition, the poem covered continues an engagement with the natural world, adding some interesting twists in a compact amount of space. Lastly, we cover a short story that brings together some contemporary issues with age old existential questions (...this one is a must read for anyone out there on the job search these days!).
