Frank Skinner’s Poetry Podcast to return for 10th series

Frank Skinner is reclaiming his poetic licence with the return of his critically acclaimed poetry podcast.

This follows Bauer Media and Absolute Radio’s decision to cancel both his podcast and award-winning radio show six months ago.

Now in partnership with Adelicious, once again Frank dives into more of his favourite contemporary and classic works, reading extracts, analysing works, and dissecting the best verses of familiar and lesser-known poets in weekly segments.

Frank Skinner’s Poetry Podcast was launched in April 2020 and regularly reached the top podcast charts nationwide. The new series will include poets and poetry both past and present from the likes of Dylan Thomas, Rebecca Hawkes, Seamus Heaney, Frank O’Hara and Ruth Padel to name a few.

Commenting on his return with the 10th series, Frank said: “Making the poetry podcast is one of my deepest joys and I’m told there are thousands of people out there who actually listen to it. I’m very happy to be presenting them with Series Ten.”

Frank also recently launched of his other new podcast, Frank Off The Radio. The podcast features two episodes each week, released on Fridays and Mondays, reuniting Frank with his trusted co-hosts broadcaster, author, and podcaster Emily Dean, alongside acclaimed comedian and writer Pierre Novellie. Its first episode released on 11 October reached No.1 in the Comedy category.

Frank Skinner’s Poetry Podcast, produced by Avalon, will be available from Wednesday 13 November, available on all mainstream podcast platforms.
