Ira Glass on Guilty Pleasures and Pedophilia

From a Q&A in the Times Book Review, in response to a question about literary appetites and guilty pleasures:

I don’t believe in guilty pleasures, I only believe in pleasures. People who call reading detective fiction or eating dessert a guilty pleasure make me want to puke. Pedophilia is a pleasure a person should have guilt about. Not chocolate.
