エピソード
  • Episode 66 - The Kite Runner
    2025/04/16

    Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal.


    This season, we are only looking at banned and controversial texts. In our sixty-sixth episode, we examine Khaled Hosseini's 2003 redemption-and-brotherhood melodrama, The Kite Runner. In this episode, Daniel feels seen, gives a shout out to his friends in the Taliban, and tells us what he'd do if ever gifted a copy of Hitler's biography. Abby, meanwhile, becomes the angriest she's been since the Pamela episode.

  • Episode 65 - The Handmaid's Tale
    2025/03/12

    Two friends and academics recap classic literature and take it off its pedestal.


    This season, we are only looking at banned and controversial texts. In our sixty-fifth episode (which coincides with International Women's Day), we examine Margaret Attwood's dystopia about far-right misogyny, The Handmaid's Tale (1985). Turkey basters and Orwell klaxons at the ready!
