Reading a Cartoon with Justin Colon and James Rey Sanchez

Lucky you if you happen to listen to this episode the day it's released because it's also publication day for Justin Colon [https://justincolonbooks.com/] and James Rey Sanchez [https://www.jamesreyart.com/about]'s Impossible Possums [https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/63250754-impossible-possums]! You're also lucky in the future because now you can go read Impossible Possums and then use this episode as a behind the scenes sneak peek into the possum sausage-making, which I guarantee is more fun than it might sound like. ------- DON’T MISS AN EPISODE!

episode Kidlit for Kamala! with Martha Brockenbrough artwork
Kidlit for Kamala! with Martha Brockenbrough

Bedrooms, bathrooms, and bookshelves. All other people's places we should be staying out of unless invited. Especially if you're a fascist. Martha Brockenbrough [https://martha-brockenbrough.squarespace.com/] is here! Talking Kidlit for Kamala, continuing children's lit education, and the frankly shocking number of books about bigfoot that one person can write. But mostly Kidlit for Kamala [https://www.facebook.com/groups/487583067211061]! A reminder from Martha: everything is political. All the things we take for granted, all the comforts and joys and holidays and benefits ingrained in our lives were things our forebears had to fight for until codified through political processes. Politics isn't the start of change, it's the end result of action. ------- DON’T MISS AN EPISODE! Sign up for our newsletter here!

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.
Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
