Imagine a breakfast wrap. You know the one, because there really is only one.

Sausage, egg, cheese, bacon and a potato rusty all wrapped together.

Yep, there it is.

I think my work here is done.

Serve them until 11 a.m.

Hi, I'm Cassidy.

And I'm April.

And together we are fashion historians, friends, and co-hosts of Dress, the History of Fashion, a podcast about why the clothes we wear matter throughout history and around the world.

From the cultural and societal to the personal and often political, with each episode we we explore the multitude of meanings, quite literally sewn into the clothes

we wear.

Please join us in unraveling the hidden histories residing in your closet.

New episodes are available on Wednesdays and our dressed classic episodes re-air each Friday

on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever else you listen to your favorite shows.

This is the Book Riot podcast. I'm Jeff O'Neill, sitting in for Rebecca this week. Sharifah Williams,

our director of content here at Book Riot. Shrifa, you get to sit in for Rebecca, and usually that means we're just

talking about news, but unfortunately this week we've got one of the most disturbing news pieces

of the recent book banning and censorship thing. I do want to say at the top that we're going to

get into it somewhat to introduce people to the story, but Kelly Jensen for us, as always,

has written a more definitive piece on this nationwide book banning legislation that we're going to talk about here in a second. I'd say it's glad to see you. It's always nice to have a conversation, but it's a bit of a bummer when we have something like that. Yeah. On the top. So we'll get into that. That's going to be our headline of this show today. Some news and notes here. Right now, 1984 by George Orwell is over in the zero to well-read

feed. Already have several nice notes from listeners saying that's exactly what we wanted from a

1984 episode. Some people who maybe, you know, thought they always should have read 1984 1984 but never really got around to it. They knew it was important and knew some of the words like Big Brother. And then went and picked up the book, even though they felt like they didn't need to. They wanted to anyway, Shrefa. So that's what we're trying to do there. What's your own relationship to 1984? Did you read that as a teenager? Do you read in college? have you ever gotten around to it? I shouldn't assume anything. I don't want to. But I wonder if you know. Yeah, I definitely read it in high school. And I think after high school, I conflated it with all of the other, you know, I don't know, catch 22 and hard. Faird Farranty-1, Brave New World,

they kind of glonged together.
