Hello Elijah, and welcome to the Sphere.
I'm afraid that I don't have much time available to listen to podcasts at present (and what time I have would probably be spent on Sleerickets at W.T Clark is an active member here).
However, I did have a look to see if there were any interesting formative points I might offer to support.
My formative points would be to:
1. Consider varying the perspective of your repertoire. At the moment all the poems you discuss were written by dead white males (if you take a look at Able Muse YouTube readings you'll see a great deal of live female and male poets writing in form from varying perspectives, most of whose work, imo, is excellent - and there are equally excellent dead female poets, and dead poets of colour, too, of course, for you to choose from if you want to)
2. Publish a masthead/about me or a bio on the podcast home pages. I always look to these first before listening to readings. Bios are, for me, a crucial aspect to understanding the perspective of the publisher/editor/creator. They offer valuable information and without that information available your credibility is weakened. This also gives you the chance to state your purpose. So, if that is about unearthing dead white male poets then that's fine - you've stated your purpose, and since I know that's what you intend I will accept that is your position and move on to another site.
