A poetic gaze, backwards and forward, with folks both brilliant and humble. The format is simple. Sam Pepple reads one of his poems aloud and the guest responds. They, then continue a meandering conversation, a conversation with levity and depth, touching on themes from creativity to recovery, from privilege to courage. The intended goal of Staying Attuned is to stay insatiably curious and have enjoyable conversations with interesting people. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do making it. And we encourage you to dialogue with us and other listeners, whenever you feel inspired to join the conversation.
