ReLIT: Nineteen Eighty-Four by George Orwell
Start growing your channel with TubeBuddy: https://www.tubebuddy.com/litsocietypod
Tired of waiting for Season 4 to start? Head over to YouTube to watch our video podcast featuring Spare by Prince Harry. It's available now: https://youtu.be/OXCf8CaUJ2Q.
Hate watching YouTube? All audio episodes will begin next Thursday. Until then, we're ecstatic to share the shows still living rent-free in our heads. Here's a favorite from our archives.
Rockwell tried to tell us: A dystopian novel that becomes more evocative as reality mirrors its bleak fiction, 1984 is a vision of a world controlled by a totalitarian regime where not even your thoughts are safe. Is your cell phone watching you, or are you watching it? Are your neighbors spying on you for their political leader's advantage? Does the government own Twitter? Of course, the answer to all of these questions is yes, and this book explains how it all started. Before we dive into 1984, we'll discuss how to keep your privacy as safe as possible today.

ReLIT: Born a Crime by Trevor Noah
We're on vacation until the start of season four, Thursday, February 2nd! Until then, we're ecstatic to share the shows still living rent-free in our heads. Here's a favorite from our archives.
Who raised you? The assumption is that our families shape who we become, but do our friends have more of an influence than we realize? In his autobiographical tale of being born and raised under apartheid in South Africa, Trevor Noah praises the people who gave him the vision and tools to make his path. He also paints the picture of his mother as a courageous visionary ahead of her time. Before diving into this heartwarming story, we discuss family vs. environment, which significantly influences our lives.
