About this listen

A peek inside the sophisticated yet scatological, erudite yet airheaded Invitational of The Gene Pool (formerly the Style Invitational of the Washington Post). Interviews with royalty, winners, and contributors. How to "get ink." What Mike Liked- and the Guest Blessed-best entries of the week. The secret history. The unpublishable entries. Fanfaronade and fustian. Badinage and persiflage. And much more.
