WHO-WHAT-WHY
A cross blend of neuroses combining poetry, art, politics, real-life tales of an emotionalorphan, and oh so controversial topics. Sharing news and discussions on Lit, Poetry, the world around us, and the efficacy of manners.
WHAT
The Social yet Distanced Pod and collective exists for one main purpose: To spread the gospel of the arts, and in particular, words to impact, deal with and share with the world, particularly the uninitiated, all the good, bad, and ugly that surrounds us. Worldwide.
And we have the poets to prove it.
WHY
You may find us joking and having loads of fun, however, don't let that mislead you. We are serious. We believe in arts, particularly words, as a sort of weapon and we know how to use it. We have flowers we'd rather send perhaps. Your choice. We just know the world needs more and we have a job.
COLLECTIVE
Why "Collective"?Because that is who we are. We run our fingers through the minds of one another with some interest towards enlightenment,redemption, remorse, regret, and maybe a little selflessness in mind. Just think about it. Engage your creativity. You can join in...Partners and Praise
Jack an incredible poet and podcast host, but he’s also such a genuinely kind human.
The whole pod staff was the epitome of pro, and you feel valued and at home and like you have a friend, even from your first conversation.

Jack Varnell and Fran Lock have swiftly and brilliantly created an arena for artistic discussion, engagement, rage, and joy that is sorely needed and skillfully executed.
Being part of the podcast/discussion, for me, was challenging in the best way
and greatly enjoyable.
This is necessary, urgent work, which I strongly proscribe to all

I have been in and around entertainment, the poetry scene, and involved with advocacy of writers with important voices. Our partnership with the Social Yet Distanced Podcast will make that task much easier. I’ve known them a long time and the trust is well earned.

As a writer and educator, I often dance a fine line in being able to connect art with my audience.
Sharing it with the world is a joy and with passionate people like Fran Lock and Jack Varnell and the support of the Collective, it becomes simply chatting about the things that matter to those that care.

Being around the poetry scene, for a while, the pandemic has robbed us all of something. In the world of traveling and performance poetry, our lifeblood is the connection to the audience and the budding writer in need of support.
Online opportunities allow us that and we all look forward to the audiences that will inevitably increase online as it becomes an addition to the art, not a necessity.
Social Yet Distanced Podcast offers a peek into that future and I believe, will make that task much easier.

Dan sums it all up best...
I hope they put this on my tombstone: “Dan Denton gave his life to poetry and American labor.”Jack and Fran Lock, phd. have mission in their efforts. Weaving the magic of poetry, and launching it into the world is what I do. It’s a pleasure to not travel alone.
Human Spirit is always looking for a way to guide the community to a more serene place. Wordsmiths hold magick…

Who is Jack Varnell, the emotional orphan? I am not a hero, possess no fortune, haven’t changed the course of mankind in any way. I am unaware of any lives permanently altered by knowing me. On the other hand, I am no serial killer, thief, dictator, malingerer, or miscreant. I am not in jail or an institution. Some were sure I would be. I am not dead. Bets were surely placed on how long I'd last. I am a museum of past affection. A wax museum in the sun.The byproduct of repetition, resentment, and the past.
