The Daily Poem podcast offers one essential poem each weekday morning. From Shakespeare and John Donne to Robert Frost and Emily Dickinson, The Daily Poem curates a broad and generous audio anthology of the best poetry ever written, read-aloud by David Kern and an assortment of various contributors. Some brief commentary is included and the shorter poems are often read twice, as time permits. Each episode is roughly 5-10 minutes long.

The Daily Poem is presented by Goldberry Studios.
