Poet, broadcaster, and TikTok sensation, Len Pennie was last on the podcast back in February 2024 on the eve of publication of her first collection of poems, Poyums. Since then, she’s become a Sunday Times bestselling author, and picked up a British Book Award. In her new collection, Poyums Annaw, Len writes viscerally about her experiences of domestic violence, mental health problems, patriarchy, and a four year fight for justice, as well as love and joy. Jen chats to Len about the ups and downs of her last year, why she writes with “love and spite”, and getting permission to feel our feelings. Learn more about your ad choices.
