The last word podcast hosted by michael Straus
This podcast will provide a forum for discussions, readings and interviews on topics generally relating to the theme of the website: the varied forms of writing and music that reflect inspired creativity, regardless of whether the subject matter is Greek tragedy, Latin American politics, Biblical theology, or personal and public occasions celebrated in choral music. All of these might be said to have their genesis, as it were, in the generation of light from darkness, order from chaos, existence from non-existence, limned in the First Words spoken at the Creation. Within the open gap of Time from then to now, we each have our own limited space. And while the ultimate Last Words may well also belong to the Creator, we here allow ourselves and our guests space to ruminate on the past/present/future, punctuating our reflections with whatever words we wish preserved.
