Let's explore a catalog of prohibitions imposed by governments convinced they were protecting citizens. Why were common recreational games, popular foods enjoyed globally, specific colors, and even reference books deemed illegal? We trace the moral panics that led to restrictions lasting decades, revealing a structural failure: the ease with which fun things are banned compared to the difficulty of regulating profitable dangers.

This episode discusses historical legal restrictions surrounding moral panics, including accusations of organized crime (Pinball) and laws initially targeting prostitution (Japanese dance ban). It also references censorship and "objectionable" words like "knock up" and "ball" in the discussion of dictionary bans.

Let's see what the world's been hiding.
