Banned Book Club
Welcome to Banned Book Club where we believe that the most controversial books are often the best books. Join us as we dive into literature that has been good enough to raise the ire of governments, school-boards, and concerned parents all over the world. We hope that by the end of each episode you will agree with us on this point, if a book is banned its worth reading.
Thanks

I was searching for podcasts to listen to about books and literature and I came upon your podcast. I’m truly enjoying it and I wish you both well. I’ve really enjoyed your discussions and the books you’ve chose to review and discuss. Keep up the great work and stay well. Love and respect. JST-

Great production, great hosts, and great stimulating discussions on a wide range of significant texts!
way too many caveats within these discussions

Interesting discussions at times. But, for instance… the episode about Bukowski’s Ham on Rye …. these guys discuss the book as though no one knows what the deal is with Bukowski. And then quite often, one of the hosts will say things like “now we’re not saying we condone this behavior” or words to that effect. Or…. “We don’t condone his treatment of women” before discussing his treatment of women. This happens A LOT. Or… “we were driving by San Pedro and we stopped by to see his grave…. Now we are not saying we are fans…”. What ? Who cares Just talk about the book, the writer … It’s actually ok to like Bukowski. His writing can be both dark and funny. He’s interesting. He’s famous! Let the conversation flow guys. Your audience isn’t that big that you need to worry about repercussions, and your dialogue in these episodes isn’t close to offensive.
