  • A delightful romp through the Irish blacklist

    Reviewing books, and now plays and even magazines banned by Irish censors over the years, this podcast is a fun insight into the 20th Century Irish sensibilities, along with decent book reviews. Censorship Bingo to sum things up is fun but the very full review of each book is the fun of the pod, and I love how she puts things into context. 5 stars!

  • This is a wonderful podcast - the finest literature (sometimes) is raked through to unearth the smut that got it banned. Aoife is a brilliant host making a subject that could be mere titillation something of academic note. Well worth a listen for her really funny asides and guest banter.
