Description
It’s an off-week for Borrowed and Banned, but we do have something special to share. We’re doing a collaboration with PRX’s Radiotopia, and they sent along an episode from one of their shows that is really relevant to our series. This Day in Esoteric Political History is a podcast that tells the story of one moment from US history that took place on a particular day -- and discuss what it might have to teach us about our current moment. Back in 2020, the hosts did an episode about the banning of James Joyce’s Ulysses and the history of obscenity laws. Their episode actually picks up where we left off last episode. We hope you enjoy their episode! You can subscribe to This Day in Esoteric Political History wherever you listen to podcasts. We'll be back next week with another episode of Borrowed and Banned.
