Heartbreak – that thing of sorrow and loss – has united a group of poets in towns across the west. Their work is collected in the anthology Poems for Ex-Lovers, which recently released its third volume of heartbreak poems. Plus, neighborhood peacocks add a little magic to a street in Salt Lake City. And, environmental groups filed a proposal for managing the Colorado River.

And! KZMU turns 32 today! It’s also the sixth anniversary of KZMU News! There’s so much to celebrate today. Thanks, listener, for making it all possible.
