When Banned Things Happen To Good People

Episode 4 - The Autobiography of Malcolm X (Part Three)

Audio issues are overcome and the podcast is back on schedule with this week's episode, as Todd and Oren continue to look at Autobiography of Malcolm X -- which, for this week's chapters, reads a bit more like the Autobiography of the Nation of Islam.

Episode 3 - The Autobiography of Malcolm X (Part Two)

Some unfortunate technical difficulties led to the delay of the episode, as well as some less-than-stellar audio, but we're back anyway, to continue our dive into The Autobiography of Malcolm X, covering chapters  six through 10.

Episode 2 - The Autobiography of Malcolm X (Part One)

This week Todd and Oren finally dig into their first book -- The Autobiography of Malcolm X -- covering chapters one through five, as well as the introduction. They also discuss the evolution of language from 1965 to 2020 while trying to keep their white male privilege in check. Yes, the conversation is a bit wild and unstructured this week, but that'll hopefully be fixed in future episodes.

Episode 1: Why We're Here and What We're Doing

This is it! The first official episode of When Banned Things Happen To Good People! Todd and Oren talk about why they care about the topics of censorship and free expression, and we tease the title of the first book we'll be reading (hint, it's not the one we mentioned in Episode 0).

Things we learned in this episode: Todd needs to dial back his microphone's sensitivity a little bit. ALSO he taps the table a lot when he talks, which can make for annoying audio hiccups.

Episode 0: The Accidental Episode

Get a behind-the-scenes look at some of the brainstorming that went on in the creation of When Banned Things Happen To Good People. While testing our audio setup we chatted about the podcast itself, and this is what we ended up with! Hope you enjoy this peek behind the scenes!
