The Children's Internet Protection Act is a good starting point to talk about Internet censorship. E-Rate has become an almost invisible restriction on what you can view on library computers. We cover Section 230 adjustments including FOSTA/SESTA and tie it into current political battles over libraries and access to sexual or queer materials. 

Returning guest and fungal host Kayte joins us to talk fungus. Rhizomes, rot, rights, and Roald Dahl. We covered it all. Embrace your future body possibilities.
