Episode 194: Patch Notes
🕑 Added 2023-04-21 14:00:06 +0000 UTCThe Hunger Games Part One Chapters 2 & 3
We're the tip of the spear! Or maybe just the shaft. It seems the whole world decided to reread this series around the same time we did, so we discuss a little bit of what we're seeing out and about in the world and how it's shaping our expectations. We also chat about a recent TV show announcement... that's right, the Twilight one!
After that, we've got two cool chapters to discuss. Neither of us have read this series before, so this time we're organizing our thoughts in real time as we ponder character voice vs. author voice, how we think the government works, what the allegories at play might be, and whether or not there are mutant dogs engaging in open warfare with mutant birds just outside the walls of Panem.

If Jack Sloper made some confidently incorrect statements about the hunger games I would probably upvote every single one lol

Y'all I'm DYING I'm 100% the person screaming at my phone "there's public school because it's a propaganda arm of the authoritarian state" lol I'm so glad you're reading this book
Cutey! Candy!! Cataclysm!!!
I would love it if Jack Sloper went undercover on the Hunger Games subreddit as a fan who totally read the books back in the day and definitely knows what's going on lmao
