Cocoa Pod Podcast

BCLF Cocoa Pod is a Caribbean storytelling experience in which writers of Caribbean heritage narrate their own stories. Each story is a seed, a nugget of an original work of fiction, rich with the rhythm, pitch and intonation of the one who wrote it. It is Caribbean storytelling told in the best way possible - in the voice of the place(s) that inspired it, imbued with the magic and accents of the region. BCLF Cocoa Pod is an original production of the Brooklyn Caribbean Literary Festival (BCLF).

BCLF Small Talk Podcast

BCLF Small Talk is the BCLF’s official bi-weekly podcast that amplifies the voice of the Caribbean author in literature and culture. Unofficially, the BCLF Small Talk is a sacred space where we, Caribbean people, can speak openly and honestly about Caribbean writing and the worlds we inhabit.

Podcast episodes consist of content from festival activities, interviews and event recordings. Episodes drop every two weeks and there is always something to discuss, learn and mull over. Season Two opened with a candid interview of the team behind the work and includes talks with the writers of some of 2021’s Caribbean literature releases. Mad!
