Hey friends,

Welcome to Our Kid's Asleep, where Madd and I discuss three topics over wine, or catch up with friends, or both. (and yes, our kid recorded the theme song).

Today's guest is the one and only Dom Gordon, here to tell us about his new poetry collection, Melanin Muse, available now!

We also throwback to our great times at Casper College, where we all met, as well as why Dom has a grudge against Maddie that now extends to my kid too.
