| 0:00.0 | Hi, everybody. This is Kimberly. And this is Katie. And you're listening to A Date with Dateline. |
| 0:06.1 | Tonight's episode or day whenever you're listening, this morning's, this Eve's, whenever you're listening, |
| 0:13.0 | this episode is called The Professor and the Poet, which means I get to roll my eyes at some very bad poetry. Or is it bad? I don't know. |
| 0:25.6 | Well, I was rolling my eyes. Who's to say? It's subjective. Actually, I would love to hear from a professor |
| 0:31.7 | of poetry to let us know what they thought of the poetry. I mean, I think you did better than me |
| 0:36.7 | because I rolled my eyes |
| 0:38.3 | when I heard the word poet. I was like, oh, no. Oh, God. It's like the equivalent of a guy |
| 0:45.4 | pulling out a guitar at a beach bonfire. I think it's slightly worse. It might be worse. And I understand |
| 0:52.2 | people want to share, but hearing someone's innermost poetry live, I think it makes me feel too much.

| 1:28.8 | idea of poetry is just different. Yeah, that's fair. Okay. So this is season 34, episode 28. It aired on |
| 1:37.6 | March 6, 2026. A man who I would read a book of his poetry, Josh Mancoitz, is the host. |
| 1:46.0 | Agreed. |
| 1:46.7 | Dateline emeritus hostess. |
| 1:50.1 | Poet laureus. |
| 1:51.9 | Poet laureate date lineus. |
| 1:54.7 | Esquire. |
| 1:55.4 | There we go. |
| 1:56.1 | We got there. |
| 1:56.7 | Sue Markham was an accomplished professor of accounting at American University in Washington, D.C. |
| 2:04.4 | In 2010, she was giving an exam on Monday, and she always told her students that they could call her at home if they had any questions. |
| 2:12.8 | That never happened to me in college. |
| 2:15.5 | I didn't know professors did that. |
