Guide to Jonathan Swift's A Modest Proposal
About this episode
Satire is a way to indirectly draw attention to societal issues, often through over the top humor. Join Dave and Greg as they discuss Swift’s “A Modest Proposal” which served as the solution to the Irish Famine. The solution was so horrifyingly taboo that it may have changed the course of history.
