After absolutely loving our miniseries on Songbirds and Snakes, we knew it was time to do a book podcast on The Hunger Games trilogy! During 2022, we discussed 2-3 chapters per episode and made sure to announce spoilers so first-time readers could easily skip them. 🏹🔥🍞 We also did Catching Fire and Mockingjay reads!


In each episode, we had an amazing time exploring things we noticed for the first time, side character POVs, historical and current events that connect our world to Panem, and so much more.


Listen to the first Hunger Games podcast episodes below (or here on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you like to listen best):


Jumping into the first two chapters of The Hunger Games reminds us all why Suzanne Collins is a genius and everyone should read her books.


There are so many fascinating things to explore in Chapters 3-4, including Madge's goodbye and gift, mentor-mentee relationships, and when we really think Peeta's crush turned into a full-on love for Katniss.


Our conversation on Chapters 5-6 includes new Cinna obversations, Effie doing more than her job, internalized standards of beauty, Opening Ceremony horses and fans, and so much more!


In Chapters 7-8 we look at everything from Rue choosing to shadow Katniss and Peeta , to Katniss shooting at the Gamemakers, to Haymitch using the irkdearment 'sweatheart', to food, food, and more food!


To continue with our discussions on Part II and Part III of the book, go here.
