Growth-Spurt: Checking out Borrowed

We’re still hard at work on Season 2, but we wanted to share an episode from one of our favorite podcasts, “Borrowed.”

If you like Grown, we think you’ll really resonate with Borrowed, especially this episode, all about a teen luddite club.

Borrowed is a podcast from the Brooklyn Public Library, and it’s about libraries, but it’s about so much more - social justice, education, history. And this October, Borrowed will be launching a series about book bans across the country. In seven episodes, the hosts will follow the trail of book censorship from its origins to where it’s landed us today. They'll interview the teachers and librarians whose livelihoods are endangered when they speak up, the writers whose books have become political battleground, and the young people fighting for intellectual freedom. Us at Grown are so excited to hear it.

You can subscribe to Borrowed wherever you get your podcasts, or learn more about it on their website: https://www.bklynlibrary.org/podcasts

Enjoy!
