The Boston Poetry scene has had its share of controversy these past months. The concept of a safe place in spoken word venues is now a frequent topic of discussion. Are safe spaces possible? What measures have been taken to create or preserve them? How do they approach individuals whose behavior or actions are seen as counterproductive to safe spaces? What if those people are prompted to fight back? Tonight at 10:00 PM, Oddball Magazine and JP Lime Productions present the first episode of The Oddball Show. Using a new format of Podcasting that combines Google Hangout and YouTube, we have scheduled the show and provided you with a link (and the embedded clip below) to access tonight's episode. Join myself, Oddball Magazine's Jason Wright and JP Lime's Ivan De Jesus and Chris Everson as we welcome our first guest DiDi Delgado, who will discuss her recent work in the scene regarding these issues. Of course, because this will be recorded, you can click on the link after the show to hear it, but we hope you can listen while it's happening and join the discussion!
