Banned Camp: Banned Books, Comedy, and Free Speech vs. Censorship Banned Camp is a comedy podcast where we read banned books and try to figure out why they were banned in the first place. Each season, we tackle a new banned book, reading it chapter by chapter and asking: What made someone clutch their pearls and scream, "BAN IT!"? (Spoiler: It’s rarely what you’d expect.) One thing is clear: the people banning these books often haven’t read them. While we uncover some eyebrow-raising moments ...

We all struggle with fear of being last, lost, least, littlest, and dead, and so we are here to encourage, challenge, provoke, and maybe ...
