Geek Between the Lines

This week, we have a great conversation on ideas of personhood within The Hunger Games and The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. In a place like Panem, there's clearly a lot to talk about - from Tribute caricatures, to Avoxes, to Gale and Katniss' perspectives on killing. We even discuss Suzanne Collins' intentional writing and development of very small characters like Fox Face.

We have a great conversation this week about characters exerting agency in The Hunger Games! We of course discuss Katniss a lot as she actively pushes the plot forward -- from volunteering to ending Coin, she constantly forges her own path in a society that gives her so few choices. We also explore not 'playing the game' in the Quarter Quell, Peeta painting Rue's burial, and characters like Pollux and Lucy Gray.

This week we talk about ideas of privilege in the Harry Potter Books. We explore races of magical peoples, social motivation to join the Death Eaters, and the intersectionalities of characters like Ron Weasley, Rubeus Hagrid, and Winky.

We of course talk a lot about Katniss before, during, and after the Games, and also discuss Peeta's leg, Victor coping mechanisms, and characters like Mags, Annie, Reaper, Jessup, and the boy from District 10.

This episode is the last of our Hunger Games Sorting Chats where we discuss what Hogwarts Houses we think Prim, Coin, Boggs, Cressida, and Plutarch would land in. And bonus: we also decide what tabletop games a couple of the characters would be!

In this episode we discuss education at Hogwarts and, as you could guess, there is a lot to talk about (especially with our own resident Professor Chris)!

This week, we look at the theme of trust in ATLA and LOK! We spend time discussing how crucial characters like Azula and Toph interact with trust. We also think about how trust (or lack of trust) in the Avatar influences leaders and ordinary people in both series, how Katara didn't trust Zuko, and so much more.
