I met up with Jason at the podcast studio inside the boutique Russell Hotel in East Nashville to discuss his passion for words – especially through the mediums of Spoken Word poetry and Podcasting. Amongst other insights, Jason shares his connection to Shel Silverstein's "Sarah Cynthia Sylvia Stout"; what having his poems published in the Flint Journal at age 15 taught him; and how his new podcast "Eight Stories Tall" is out to prove that "an uninteresting person does not exist."
Oh, and you'll get a chance to hear J-Live perform two of his original spoken word poems: "It's a Wonderful Life" and "Grace Tree" during the episode.
