Banned Camp is a comedy podcast where we read banned books and try to figure out why they were banned in the first place. Join us as we explore the controversial themes within these forbidden tales through humorous discussions and satirical analysis. Uncover the reasons behind book censorship and the mysteries of literary censorship as we read banned and challenged books aloud.
Each season, we read a banned book in its entirety, out loud, with each episode of the season being a chapter from the book, followed by a discussion of what we found, if anything, in that chapter that could have been deemed ban-worthy.
Past seasons have included "To Kill a Mockingbird" by Harper Lee, "Fahrenheit 451" by Ray Bradbury, and "The Outsiders" by S.E. Hinton. The current season, we are reading the classic Mark Twain novel “The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn”.
By reading books like these, we can find answers to important questions like:
Why are banned books important?
What does "banned books" mean?
What does "challenged" books mean?
How does banning books affect students?
What is the most banned book?
How do book bans work?
Should book banning be allowed?
Are book bans constitutional?
Which books are banned in the US?
What is the most challenged book of all time?
