How to Lay an Egg with a Horse Inside
Rich talks to the Banksy of poetry (though he's happy to be seen in the video, so that blows that), Brian Bilston (if that is his real name) about his career in poetry and his latest collection How To Lay an Egg With a Horse Inside. They chat about where this fantastic title came from and the probable obliviousness of its creator, how Twitter used to be a great place to post creative content and be inspired by others, how the book is a sarcastic but also inspirational look at the creation of poetry, whether AI will ever take the place of writers and most importantly where we get our crazy ideas from.
