Pan-amorously Yours

Alone on Valentine's Day?  Never fear, The Bread Beat is here!  We will keep you company with Paul Dillon's poem about the flatulence caused by love, as well as an assortment of our producer's favorite love poems.  Check out our updated page here, and remember to support our collaborators, The Vein!

FRESHLY BAKED: NEW EPISODES OF THE BREAD BEAT

In collaboration with The Vein, Sliced Bread is proud to present brand new episodes of our podcast, The Bread Beat.  New episodes can be found on on our page here.  Our third episode features Lucia Lu reading her poem "Tom Hanks," as well as Elizabeth Bynum reading her poem "Underneath."  In our fourth episode Julian Spergel reads Lillian Solenick's "The Byzantine Birds," a wonderfully creepy short story.
Curl up with your favorite kind of bread, plug in your headphones and let your hungry heart indulge.  We hope you enjoy.
