Welcome to Celebrate Poe - This is episode 300 - “Poe's Legacy: 300 Episodes of Exploration”
Yes, this a point that I never thought the Ghost of Mr. Poe and myself would never reach - the 300th episode of this podcast. I like to think that the title of this episode reflects on the journey through Poe's life and works, celebrating the depth of content covered in the podcast - and this podcast has not even reached the half-way point of Poe’s life - a life that had so many creativity that this podcast hasn’t even touched - at least, yet.
For this episode I want to have a small, imaginary dinner party to celebrate the 300th episode of his podcast with an exclusive guest list consisting of the Ghost of Edgar Allan Poe - he is the man of the hour- as well as the imaginary ghost of William Shakespeare, as the ghost of Charles Dickens and the ghost of Walt Whitman - they all indirectly played a part in Poe’s life, and would be fascinating characters in their own right - then I realized that ghosts are formless and don’t require food - but I am looking forward, anyway, to have a gathering of these literary giants - or at least their ghosts to see how they all get along. Oh, I am sure they will make fun of each other, but secretly admire the artistry that each represents - I expect that will be a great deal of good-natured ribbing.
Thank you for experiencing Celebrate Creativity.
