In April 2025, we hosted the first of two collaborative events with Born Lippy. Three poets from each night went head to head, and the winners...? Poetry!
From Born Lippy, we had Hold Thoughts by Lydia Bruce, Back in Blyth by Tommy23, and Blackouts from the irrascible Donald Jenkins. And from King Ink, we had Entrails by Helen Rogers, Willem Dapoem by The Hellpoet, and Penelope, Bearer of Great Enmity by our very own James Whitman.
Thanks to everyone who came out to make this such an electric event - the atmosphere was pure buzzing all night. Thanks to all of our featured poets, and to our hosts with the most poets packed into medium size venue I've ever seen, Pop Recs!
Until next time, toodle-oo!
King Ink's podcast is hosted by Helen Wilko and produced by James Whitman.
