b"Back in the day, I used to be known as quite the, shall we say, eccentric spoken-word performer in my Houston hometown. A fellow H-Town poet who I looked up to is today's guest on the Crizzlecast.\\nMarcell Murphy has seen a lot of things in the H-Town poetry scene, and he shares them in very entertaining detail on this episode. He talks about being integral in launching the city's first poetry slam team as well as what's driving him up the wall (and there's a lot!) about the scene today. He also discusses his family upbringing. We also talk about his lovely wife, who I got so enamored with, I ended up interviewing her for a future episode.\\nI had a great conversation with an old friend, but I feel this might be the shittiest recording I've done thus far. If it is, just bare with it. It's worth the listen."
