The VoxInforma Podcast: Mike the Poet

For the latest episode of the VoxInforma podcast we interviewed a man who’s reputation precedes him: Mike the Poet.

Part poet, part tour guide, part historian, he’s been featured in the LA Times, the OC Weekly, and he’s been enjoyed and praised at venues across the southland. He’s also released an audio cd and a book of poetry titled “I am Alive in Los Angeles!”

Mike had so many great things to talk about that we didn’t want to cut him off, but we figure an hour should be a good enough dose to get you out to a venue to see this man in person, and we look forward to catching up with him in the future to talk more about his work.

To read more about Mike, check out the article on him in the LA Times.

I remember the Alamo

I remember the Alamo

“…From Caracas to the Pampas

To the Chiapas to East Los Angeles

From the lowliest paid dishwasher

In the lonliest Cafe

In the northern most tip of Maine

All the way down south to the southern most cone of Argentina

Wherever there are so many as one of us

I say Viva! Viva! Viva America Latina!!!”
