Several weeks ago, StutterTalk received an email from Brent Smith. In that message, Brent asked how he could get involved in the stuttering community. Today, Brent jumps in and gets involved! He joins regular co-host Eric Jackson to discuss his experience growing up stuttering and why, at this point in his life, he wants to start talking about stuttering and meeting others who stutter.
Brent was born and raised in Los Angeles. He’s an MFA candidate in Writing & Poetics at the Jack Kerouac School of Disembodied Poetics at Naropa University in Boulder, Colorado. His work has been featured in World Affairs — The Journal on International Issues, NewMusicWeekly, ImagoZine, Splash Magazines Worldwide, Reality Sandwich, Denver Magazine and he authored the preface for journalist Paola Harris’ new book Exopolitics: Stargate to a New Reality.

Welcome to the March B Team episode at StutterTalk. All B Team shows are archived here for your listening enjoyment.
Caryn Herring, Joel Korte and Roisin McManus (the Stuttertalk “B Team”) have submitted their March episode, and as usual, it’s an eclectic mix of stuttering related topics. First, Joel plays a recording of “I’ll Get By” a song that he and his band Ghost Towns of the West wrote about stuttering. The song is available as a free download at www.chaseblissrecords.tumblr.com. During the second half of today’s show they discuss speech-language pathologists who stutter, graduate students who stutter and the challenges they face. This is the second show in the current StutterTalk series on clinicians who stutter. The first show in the series is Speech-Language Pathologists Who Stutter – The Graduate School Experience (Episode 266).
