World Poetry Cafe is broadcast every Thursday on CFRO FM, 100.5, Vancouver, a nonprofit radio station. Ariadne Sawyer hosts and produces, Victor helps host, read and edit the show. Today’s Cafe honours two guests unable to attend due to illness. Sendoo Hadaa, in Mongolia, has the flu. Randall Stephen Hall, in Ireland, had a heart attack and is in hospital waiting bypass surgery. We honour both, including a throat singing clip from Mongolia and two songs from Randall. Also stories and poetry from Ariadne, Sharon Rowe, Kelly Montgomery and Victor Schwartzman. Enjoy!
