In Chapter 6, the Handmaids walk past a wall where six bodies hang from hooks — doctors executed for performing abortions that were legal when they did them. In Chapter 7, the only freedom left is inside her own head at night, where she drifts between memories she didn't choose and can't control — until one of them ends with her daughter being handed to a stranger. Banned Camp is a comedy podcast where we read banned books chapter by chapter — we don't read ahead, so you're discovering the story with us. Things To Listen For: Jennifer's theory about Christian nationalism and why Gilead doesn't actually need churchesDan asks whether Trump could keep a church algae-free for a full week and a halfRobot breaks in to explain what's actually happening when the handmaid's mind starts drifting — and to save everyone ten minutes of confusionJennifer's observation about enslaved mothers having their children taken, and why she couldn't keep reading past it without saying something Why was The Handmaid's Tale banned? These two chapters get at something book banners don't want discussed: the idea that retroactive crimes — punishing people for doing legal work after the law changes — aren't a dystopian invention. They're a tool. Chapter 6 shows doctors hung for performing abortions that were legal at the time. That's not fiction to the people trying to ban this book. That's a preview.

The Handmaid's Tale has been challenged or banned in American schools and libraries every single year since its publication in 1985. It was the most challenged book in the United States in 2023. It has been targeted for profanity, sexually explicit content, and content deemed "offensive to Christians." But the deeper reason is that Margaret Atwood showed what happens when a government uses religion, tradition, and "protecting families" as justification for stripping women of their rights, their names, and their autonomy. That's the part that actually scares book banners, because it looks a lot like Tuesday. Is there a podcast that reads The Handmaid's Tale chapter by chapter? That's us. Banned Camp reads a different banned book every season, one chapter at a time — neither host has read ahead, so you're discovering the story together in real time. Season 11 covers The Handmaid's Tale, and every episode includes the chapter reading, discussion, a fact-checking Robot, and a segment on why books get banned. Do I need to start Banned Camp from the beginning? No. Every episode opens with Robot's recap of the previous chapter, so you can jump in anywhere. Most listeners tell us they started mid-season and went back to the beginning after they were hooked.
