---Today we are joined by José Olivarez. José is an award-winning poet and is also an educator, developing writing courses and poetry workshops. He recently released his debut book of poetry Citizen Illegal, which is fantastic and which pulls the reader into the liminal and hyphenated spaces José has inhabited growing up in Chicago as the son Mexican immigrants to the US.
In our conversation we talk about the power of poetry both in and out of formal poems, we discuss poetry’s relation to the good, the true, and the beautiful, and José even graciously performs one my favorite poems from his book.

Poet, educator, and Young Chicago Authors Marketing Director José Olivarez explores adulting and gives some podcast-veteran advice to Danez and Franny.
José Olivarez is a poet living and working in Chicago, Illinois, and is also co-host of one of my all-time favorite podcasts, The Poetry Gods.

In the second segment, we talked about beginnings and endings.
