Podcasts about The Hunger Games

New year, New season, Same ol' Laura and Meggie. Kicking off another year of YA, the best friends are back and more excited than ever as they crack open Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games: the first book in the beloved trilogy that quickly rose to popularity in the late aughts. Katniss Everdeen lives a meager and strenuous life in her home of District 12. Each year, the nation of Panem hosts an event in which teens are raffled off to participate in a fight to the death called The Hunger Games. After her sister gets called out as her district's tribute, Katniss volunteers to take her place and is immediately whisked off into the high stakes adventure of trying to win the game and save herself.

The United States is growing more dysfunctional, and it's increasingly obvious that our political systems are designed to fail. Can we continue to exist as a unified country for another fifty years? Or will our future look like the Hunger Games, with an unrecognizable USA? To find out, we asked New York Times columnist Jamelle Bouie. Show notes: www.ouropinionsarecorrect.com/shownotes

In this episode, I'm sharing two of my favorite ways to test out a story idea before you start writing a single word. Here's a preview of what you'll hear in the episode:[01:50] The goal of these two exercises is to find out which foundational pieces of your story still need to be fleshed out. Better to find out now than halfway through a draft![01:10] Exercise #1: Write a 1-2 sentence summary of your story. Try to capture the WHO, the WHAT, and the WHY of your global story.[04:45] If you don't know all the answers, look to your genre for clues! Your story's global genre will give you the framework for these summaries (and so much more).[06:00] If an idea does fall flat in this 1-2 sentence summary, this does NOT mean the story idea isn't good. It just means there's more work to do to flesh out the foundational elements required to write a full-length story.[06:30} Exercise #2: Write a 250-word (or less) summary of your story. Take your short summary and expand the WHO, the WHAT, and the WHY. Add details about your setting, too.[08:00] An example of a summary from The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins.[11:20] Final thoughts and episode recapFollow & Review in Apple PodcastsAre you following my podcast?

Plenty of journalists have had the experience of being “trolled” – attacked on social media for what they have written or said, often in terms which can be both offensive and sometimes frightening. Tessa Wong was trolled after reporting on China, but rather than simply accepting the abuse, she tried to find out why so many people had launched these attacks. What she found was that some of them were not the spontaneous outbursts of outraged citizens which they might have appeared. Rather it seems that key social media political influencers are being encouraged in their work by the Chinese authorities. It should have been a fairly straight-forward task for our reporter in the Seychelles, Patrick Muirhead. A financial scandal has hit the island nation, and various high profile people have been accused of taking money intended for its citizens. Patrick was in court to cover the proceedings, and was also offered the chance to interview the Seychelles' President about the affair. However, this is a small country, and he was on first name terms with both the President, and with some of those in the dock. He admits, it was quite a challenge to report on the story with detachment. 2022 has started with some speculating that this could be the year in which Covid is beaten – not that the virus will disappear completely, but that it might become endemic, and certainly not killing people on anything like the scale seen so far. Yet even if by some miracle the Coronavirus were to vanish altogether, the effects of these past two years will be with us for a long time. In Peru, for example, tens of thousands of children have lost parents to Covid, and this in a country which already suffers from widespread poverty. As Jane Chambers explains, the death of a family breadwinner can leave children facing terrible hardship, along with the grief. Meeting a rebel leader can be difficult at the best of times, but particularly so if that leader is under arrest. Joshua Craze, was on the trail of General Simon Gatwich, from one of the factions which has been fighting in South Sudan. The country broke away from Sudan following a long battle for independence, but then itself split into different factions. Although a peace agreement has been reached, it's considered a fragile one. General Gatwich headed north, to Sudan itself, so Joshua Craze tried to find out what exactly he was up to there. History has seen many symbolic acts of resistance: banging saucepans, for example, was an expression of rebellion in revolutionary France, and was more recently taken up by protestors in Latin America. Pro-democracy campaigners in Thailand and Myanmar, meanwhile, have taken to given a three finger salute, taken from the film, The Hunger Games. But there is another historical act of rebellion which might have passed you by: eating cake. That is what people in Denmark did for more than a century, as Amy Guttman explains.

Instagram says Shean and Shane are inciting violence. There's a strange man in Shane's yard. Shean's discussing philosophy with his uber driver. Trump's been boostered. Rittenhouse's media blitz proves we're in The Hunger Games. And Kamala's mask slips on Charlamagne's show. Wars and rumors of war. Friends gaslighting friends. Rape and love letters. Enrique and his mole. The guys also discuss: how to know whether or not you're in a cult; how many times President Biden coughed during his Omicron speech; and little white girls telling black men to mask up. Plus, Shean gifts Shane a free therapy session for Christmas — live, on air, during Ready Slow.

durée : 01:13:36 - Blockbusters, le podcast - De nombreuses séries ont mis en scène de manière dystopique les méfaits d'une société du spectacle, mais aussi les dérives d'un système totalitaire, mais rarement œuvre n'a abordé aussi frontalement le rapport de lutte des classes et même de révolutions populaires qu'Hunger Games de Suzanne Collins.

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. Please tell a geeky friend about us and leave a review on your podcast app!

Dystopian and The Pandemic What do they have in common? The word ‘dystopian' comes to mind: ‘relating to or being an imagined world or society in which people lead fearful lives. The difference: The last year and a half - real and full of fear. Matched was imagined. Ally's message to her audience, young and old: it's okay to not be okay. Matched, a dystopian young adult novel has been read by a wider readership than the young adult population. The first in a series of three, it has been compared to ‘The Hunger Games' and ‘Twilight'.

We know, we know, we're late in discussing Squid Game... but we still think it's a worthwhile topic to discuss because of all the different levels of influence the show has had on making "foreign" content mainstream for a global audience. We speculate on why we think it was such a runaway success and why it resonated with so many people across all different global/cultural backgrounds despite similarities with existing other shows/movies (i.e., Alice in Borderland, Hunger Games, Hostel), the hotties in the show and their impact on elevating Asian men's attractiveness in the eyes of non-Asian viewers, the ways the show broke stereotypes or the presiding societal narrative, and much more. If you're still shaking trying to carve out the shape in your dalgona candy, strap yourself in and join us in this conversation on Squid Game and the (hopefully) positive impact it'll continue to have on Asian and multi-lingual/multi-cultural content in the future!

Are you Green or Orange? We're not quite Red over this listener recommendation (thanks Em!) but both Brenna and Joe find that Bracken's text doesn't fully want to engage with its rebellion or world-building as much as it could (or should?) Instead it's a lot of road trip, with an unconvincing romance and a cliffhanger that suggests we might enjoy the next book in this series more.Alas the film fares worse: despite decent special effects and a more convincing romantic pairing between returning champ Amandla Stenberg and someone named Harris Dickinson (*not a Hemsworth), the film doubles down on the book's least interesting aspects. As it stands, this pairing simply doesn't stand on its own two feet and Stenberg (see previous episodes: Everything, Everything; The Hate U Give, and The Hunger Games) deserves better!Wanna connect with the show?

In this episode, we have our first return guest, Kaden! Before we get into the episode, Jacob has an inside scoop after meeting Bob Saget, regarding the movie Dirty Work and Norm MacDonald. We finally get into the pick which was Japan's 2000's Battle Royale. This movie inspired many pop-culture works including The Hunger Games, Fortnite, and more. This movie was directed by Kinji Fukasaku. GD4AM: 76/100 IMDb: 7.6/10 Metacritic: 81/100 RT: 88% In the future, the Japanese government captures a class of ninth-grade students and forces them to kill each other under the revolutionary "Battle Royale" act. This movie is currently available for rent on most streaming platforms. Editor's Note: If you hear echoing, apologies, Sage and Kaden were in the same room and occasionally Tate and Jacob's voices would get picked up by their mic as well.

Once again, Baconsale is rolling the dice and participating in a Choose-Your-Own-Adventure-style game and letting someone else take the reins of the episode. Our good friend Mats has spent months preparing an interactive competition for Kent, Joel, and Zack, and he's now ready to unleash his Hunger Games multiverse on our minds and your ears. Along the way, we'll race for tridents, get in our first fist fights, try to avoid arrows/killer ducks, sleep on bread, and just try to keep ourselves (and our wives) alive.   Press play to judge if Mats is an impartial Dungeon Master.

We go deep into the dystopian world with these four films: Hunger Games, Divergent, The 5th Wave, and Maze Runner. Some of them went farther than others, but we look just at the first film and say what's weak and what's fleek. What makes them work? Why does this genre keep having so much success? Are adults the problem? These are just some of the questions we examine.

From Squid Game to Hunger Games so much of what has been thrust upon us as entertainment is really conditioning us for the end times. Hollywood's War on God https://tinyurl.com/5cus35n2

When the FDA approved the Pfizer vaccine for kids between the ages of 5 and 11 a little more than two weeks ago, parents quickly tried to secure spots to get their kids vaxxed. Even before the approval, Chicago Public Health Commissioner Allison Arwady assured parents and guardians that getting the vaccine “was not going to be the Hunger Games,” the way it often felt when the vaccine was approved for adults. A health care reporter details the early days of the pediatric vaccine roll-out, and we talk to a family in suburban Palos Park about how they're feeling now that two teens are fully vaxxed and two kids are partly vaxxed.  Guests: Lisa Schencker—Health care business reporter, Chicago Tribune The Narciso Family Where to find the vaccine Follow us on Twitter: @CityCastChicago Sign up for our newsletter: chicago.citycast.fm
