How do get more hits on Google? Be rude of course. This is an interesting tale of an individual who was so rude and received so many complaints, that his website shot up on the Google search page.
Taylor Mali is the special guest of this episode of Leon Says. He is a professional poet and has won the U.S. National Poetry Slam four times. Known for being a great poet and performer, he is also an excellent teacher. It was such a privilege to get to know him a little bit, see him perform and teach, and to be inspired by him. A more engaging, interesting and gregarious individual I’ve not met. What a treat it has been to spend time with Taylor. I hope you enjoy this little interview with him.
