American's just love not paying for labor. Today we are talking about a time when coal miners of Tennessee fought back against the government after being denied literally the bare minimum requests. Who would have guessed that paying your employees fake money and deciding how much they make in a secret process was going to lead to armed rebellion?

If you love The Raven by Edgar Allen Poe, then I have great news for you! Today we are talking about the latest book in the Hunger Games series, Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins. It's just as heartbreaking as all the other ones but this time our protagonist only gets a semi happy ending and it takes over 25 years. Oh to be a Ryan in a world of Urchin's and Heartwood's.

It's the future but they are dressed like it's the past and all their cars are old timey??? Today we are talking about the movie adaptation of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. The cast is star studded, the movie had to make lots of changes because the book is long, and Lucy Gray maybe shouldn't sing ballads without some instruments. Also, if your boyfriend has a shaved head maybe don't sing a song about him being white and pure even if his last name is snow, it's just giving Nazi.

WARNING: murder, child abuse, gun violence

66 years before Katniss first enters the arena, there is another girl from District 12 that captures the countries, and Coriolanus Snow's attention.
