Episode Details

In this special crossover episode of Good News for Lefties and the Banned Camp podcast, host Beowulf Rochlen joins Dan and Jen to dive into the world of banned books.  Beowulf brings exciting news from California, where the newly passed California Freedom to Read Act is set to protect libraries from banning books based on content, including those featuring LGBTQ and racial themes. This landmark legislation, signed by Governor Gavin Newsom, represents a significant victory in the ongoing battle against book bans. Tune in as they discuss the implications of this law, the importance of access to diverse literature, and the broader cultural shifts surrounding censorship. Plus, get ready for some humor and lively banter, including Dan's vocal impressions and a new theme song!

Join the resistance at Banned Camp, the hilarious comedy podcast where the hosts read banned books chapter-by-chapter to figure out exactly what made everyone so afraid of them in the first place.
