Our dive into The Hunger Games continues with that age-old debate: which boy is the right boy? Is there a right boy? Is our hatred of the one boy due to his behavior now, or our knowledge of his later behavior? If there are teenage boys, then why is there none of the hormonally-driven physiology and behavior that we all know comes with being a teenage boy? Or girl, for that matter?

Join Jess, Katy, and Julia as they ask these questions and more, diving into the many-year influence of Suzanne Collins's seminal work, its impact on our hosts' generation, and its relevance to modern culture and politics.

It's her first kill, of course it's going to change her... (but what about all of the kills before this one?) 

Jess and Julia continue our dive into Suzanne Collins' The Hunger Games, touching on emotion and emotionality in YA fiction, the significance of kissing without a hygiene regimen, real-life experience with concussion and illness, whether or not tributes... get intimate... in the arena, and much more.

The Games have begun in our reread of Suzanne Collins's The Hunger Games, and we're still absolutely stuck on Peeta's amazing cake decorating skills. As they make their way through the second third of the book, Jess and Julia discuss the potential for less than savory motives among the folks in the Games' support staff, whether or not the first half of the book would be better told through flashbacks, the importance of demonstrating realistic responses through a character's emotional journey, which old Games site they'd want to recreationally camp at (hint: not one with screaming monkeys), and much, much more.

It's the first episode of our official reread of The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, and there's so much we're picking out now that we know where the series goes. Jess, Katy, and Julia discuss catalysts of revolution, whether or not Katniss is on the spectrum, the potential state of elder care in District 12, the evolution of teen lit, and much more.

Ready your cannons, tributes: We're officially starting our countdown to the Sunrise on the Reaping film with a complete reread of The Hunger Games Seriesby Suzanne Collins. And what better way to start than to forget characters' names, discuss traumatic memories, and start a counter for every time someone says "Katna and Penis" instead of "Katniss and Peeta"?

Join Jess, Katy, Julia, and Producer Rob on a trip down SEVENTEEN YEARS of Hunger Games memories and expectations that sets our usual unhinged tone for the season to come!

Henry's been here before so this interview is pure chaos. How much chaos you ask? Well, the book is about some Eldritch prom night horrors having their own nightly fun, the questions are about snacks, disco balls, and flamingos, and it's a little over an hour long. 

You love it. We love it. Don't forget to buy it on our BookShop.
