This is the Book Ride Podcast, this weekly news and talk show about what's new, cool and worth talking about in the world of books and reading.

Recording on Thursday, September 22nd, 2022.

I'm Jeff O'Neill here at Rebecca Schinsky,

coming to you from the niche outlet of Book Riot.

Is that shade or what's the inverse of Shade? I like it.

I mean, the truth is we are in the chat.

So the joke here is no one should get this.

It's Kelly Jensen's coverage and Danicus too was cited in the

Atlantic about book banning and censorship and making the point where it hasn't

really been covered by mainstream outlets but has been covered by niche outlets, like

Book Right, and something called the First Amendment, which is a freedom, or you know, a first amendment.

Well, it's in the, it's on the tin, freedom of expression.

And we've been having fun with that.

And I think the truth is we are,

if we're not a niche outlet, who is?

It's okay.

We're a niche outlet.

We write about books and stuff.

That's okay.

Our company's mission statement says we create

content for niche communities. That's true. There you go. Anyway, it's nice to be

noticed however small and belittling the notice might be.
