RedPubPod 043: Poet Rupert Fike Explores His Years at “The Farm” in Poetry

In this episode of RedPubPod, we welcome Georgia poet Rupert Fike to discuss his powerful new poetry collection, All Things in Common, published by Redhawk Publications. With special guest host Cecilia Woloch an internationally renowned poet and Fulbright scholar—this lively conversation explores Fike’s poetic chronicle of "The Farm," a legendary counterculture commune he helped found in the 1970s.

Cecilia shares how her late cousin, poet Bart Solarczyk, helped her connect Rupert to Redhawk. Rupert reads from his collection while reflecting on communal living, spiritual awakening, and the hard-won lessons of idealism. Filled with laughter, insights, and history, this episode celebrates poetry, memory, and the stories that shape us.

All Things in Common by Rupert Fike is available now from Redhawk Publications here!

We encourage you to check out Cecilia’s website to learn more about her and her writing here!
