Podcasts about The Hunger Games

The nativity is more than a quiet scene on a mantel—it’s the moment Hope took on flesh. Drawing from Luke 2:7, this devotional reflects on the tender, intimate way God chose to enter the world: humble, small, and wrapped in cloth. Like Mary, the shepherds, and the wise men who followed a star into the unknown, we’re invited to pursue Hope with trust, curiosity, and courage. Hope doesn’t shout; it waits to be sought. And when we find it—when we find Him—fear loses its grip and light floods the dark corners of our lives. Highlights A personal window into the author’s first night of motherhood and the nearness of God Parallels between Mary’s quiet moment with Jesus and our own encounters with divine presence The power of hope to silence fear—echoed in Scripture and even unexpected cultural references Why hope often appears humble and easy to overlook The shepherds’ and wise men’s radical pursuit of a Savior they barely understood A reminder that true hope isn’t about earthly rewards but eternal transformation The invitation to seek, embrace, and live out the hope found in Christ Gift Inspiration: Crosswalk's Holiday Gift Guide Looking for a meaningful way to celebrate the season?

Full Transcript Below: Hope Wrapped in Swaddling Clothes By Peyton Garland Bible Reading: “...and she gave birth to her firstborn, a son. She wrapped him in cloths and placed him in a manger, because there was no guest room available for them.” Luke 2:27 (NIV) Outside experiencing Christ’s salvation, I haven’t felt God’s presence so loudly, so beautifully, as the night after I had my first son. My little guy didn’t have to stay in the hospital nursery, so he spent his first night with me. Exhausted from the previous night’s midnight contractions coupled with a five-in-the-morning birth, I welcomed the quiet, dark hush that finally fell over the hospital floors. I recall the sole soft yellow light the nurses left on in my room through that night, and it shone directly over my baby. Despite the new mysteries and fears naturally coupled with motherhood, like Hagar, I felt seen, known, and embraced (Genesis 16). The presence of the Almighty was undeniable. I imagine that Mary felt much the same as the Star of Bethlehem pierced through a world filled with darkness and cast its beautiful warmth over her, and Hope wrapped in swaddling clothes. She had little choice but to accept the kindness and favor God had placed on her through such a tiny, splendid creature. Hope for Mary’s people was now tangible. If you have ever read the best-selling sci-fi series, The Hunger Games, or watched its film adaptations, you recall one of the trilogy’s most famous quotes: “Hope is the only thing stronger than fear.” Though quoted by the villainous President Snow, I agree with his assessment. Hope has this unearthly ability to squelch our greatest fears, yet hope rarely screams to be seen. Hope is often humble, just like Katniss Everdeen, a poor young girl from an outcast district, who was willing to sacrifice her life to become hope for a nation of oppressed people. Hope wants you to seek it out to affirm the worth you’ve placed upon it. It’s not that hope is dictatorial. Rather, hope recognizes that without your willingness to seek it and embrace it, it will never truly live inside you. You won’t experience its fullness without placing personal faith in its power. Is that not what the nativity scene reminds us? Humble beginnings? Faith that seems scientifically impossible and socially fatal? The shepherds were greeted by a host of angels and told to meet a newborn baby who would save their souls. The wise men (likely sorcerers) felt the holy calling of a God they weren’t intimate with, yet they spent months, likely years, pursuing a star (most scholars believe the wise men didn’t reach Christ until he was two years old). This great pursuit didn’t lead the shepherds or wise men to a king in royal garb. They didn’t discover troves of treasure. There wasn’t any earthly reward they gained from this blind trust. Instead, they met a young boy born to lowly Jews, but they were radically bettered forever. In fact, Scripture confirms that the wise men pledged their souls to Christ, worshipping him, and protecting Him from King Herod: “[Herod] sent [the wise men] to Bethlehem and said, ‘Go and search carefully for the child. As soon as you find him, report to me, so that I too may go and worship him.’ After they had heard the king, they went on their way, and the star they had seen when it rose went ahead of them until it stopped over the place where the child was. When they saw the star, they were overjoyed. On coming to the house, they saw the child with his mother, Mary, and they bowed down and worshiped him. Then they opened their treasures and presented him with gifts of gold, frankincense and myrrh. And having been warned in a dream not to go back to Herod, they returned to their country by another route.” We are granted the same opportunity to pursue Hope, even if we aren’t promised worldly possessions or fame. Hope doesn’t need a bonus package or special add-ons to fill our hearts with love and light that brings us joy, no matter our lot in life. Hope only needs a baby wrapped in swaddling clothes, a baby committed to experiencing sacrificial death, then shedding grave clothes for mankind to know eternal peace. What a beautiful reason to celebrate the true meaning and hope of this Christmas season! Intersecting Faith & Life: As Christmas approaches, take a few moments as a family to discuss the importance of the nativity scene and consider age-appropriate crafts and devotionals centered on its significance.

On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down the brand-new Supergirl trailer, the early reactions to the initial footage, and why some viewers are comparing her vibe to "a female Star-Lord."

The girls are back and ready to spill the tee. In Season 3, Episode 4 of Birdie Little Secrets, Kassidy and Sydney dive into a whirlwind week in golf. They kick things off celebrating Hideki Matsuyama, who wrapped up his season the same way he started it: with a W. After outlasting Alex Noren in a playoff at the Hero World Challenge, Hideki snagged his second title at the event (the first dating back to 2016) and notched an impressive 21 worldwide career wins. Casual. No big deal. But you know the TEE is never far away… Wyndham Clark stirred the pot again, this time with some not-so-subtle public shade about the course conditions in the Bahamas. Let's just say his comments on Albany's Bermuda grass were anything but "politically correct," and Kass & Syd are breaking down the reactions. Then it's time to decode one of the most high-pressure, life-changing events in golf: PGA TOUR Q-School presented by Korn Ferry. The ladies break it down stage by stage because yes, it's confusing and explain exactly what's on the line: PGA TOUR cards, Korn Ferry status, future careers… the works. And to make it even juicier, they're joined by a special guest, Lea Martinson, who gives an inside look at what it's like supporting her fiancé as he prepares for the Final Stage. But the week doesn't stop there. Kass and Syd wrap with a sneak peek at the Grant Thornton Invitational, the mixed-team event bringing PGA and LPGA stars together, with 16 powerhouse pairings ready to battle it out in Naples.  This episode is one you'll want to listen to tee to green!

Just a few weeks until Christmas and there is plenty of physical media to fit under the tree as Erik Childress and Peter Sobczynski's roundup this week's selections. They include a little Powell and Pressburger and some Oscar nominees from Penny Marshall and Mira Nair. There is some more from Dan Curtis, a giant snake and one of Robert Altman's more obscure oddities. Lionsgate alone has one of the great making of documentaries of all time, Kevin Smith's hilarious riff on religion and faith plus the film that makes Tarantino lash out on The Hunger Games.

The central theme of our discourse revolves around the profound concept of hope, particularly as articulated through the lens of the biblical narrative in Jeremiah 33. We reflect on the dichotomy of hope, elucidating that while a modicum of hope can be beneficial, an excess thereof may engender peril. In a world often engulfed in despair, we draw parallels to dystopian narratives, such as the Hunger Games, to underscore how those in power may seek to ration hope in a manner that maintains control rather than inciting transformation. Furthermore, we traverse the historical landscape of Judah's exile, wherein the remnants of faith appeared to be extinguished, yet we proclaim the enduring promise encapsulated in the prophetic declaration, “The days are surely coming.” This episode invites listeners to embrace a bold and tenacious hope, one that defies the prevailing cynicism and anticipates a future where divine righteousness prevails.The discourse delves into the concept of hope, elucidating its profound significance amidst despair, particularly within the context of historical and contemporary narratives. The speaker invokes the allegorical backdrop of 'The Hunger Games' to illustrate how hope can serve as a double-edged sword—while a modicum of hope can inspire compliance, an excess of it poses a threat to the established order. This notion invites listeners to ponder the delicate balance of hope as it exists in their own lives, paralleling the plight of the Israelites during their exile, when they grappled with feelings of abandonment and despair. The speaker, drawing on the prophetic voice of Jeremiah, proclaims the arrival of a transformative hope that transcends mere survival; this hope is depicted as a radical, divine promise that asserts God's unwavering commitment to His people, suggesting that genuine hope is rooted in the assurance of future redemption.Takeaways: Hope, while a powerful force, can be dangerous when it is abundant and unrestrained. The concept of rationed hope suggests that we must maintain balance to avoid chaos. Jeremiah's prophetic declaration signifies that a time of fulfillment and salvation is assured. In the midst of despair, the statement 'the days are surely coming' serves as a profound reminder of hope. God's covenant with humanity guarantees His faithfulness, regardless of our shortcomings and failures. The promise of Jesus' return embodies the ultimate hope, transcending present struggles and sorrows.

"So today's lesson is, you kill each other off till there's only one left. Nothing's against the rules."25 years ago, Kinji Fukasaku brought the infamous novel BATTLE ROYALE to life, and essentially invented a new subgenre of dystopian teen cinema. In honor of the film's anniversary, The Wives Colangelo are exploring the incredibly bleak messaging the film has about generational division, government-sanctioned violence, and the disposability of youth. Don't worry, this week's episode will also get into the discourse surrounding the film's connection to THE HUNGER GAMES, and why Quentin Tarantino doesn't know what he's talking about.--------Become a Patron! https://www.patreon.com/thisendsatprom--------MONTHLY SPOTLIGHTRainbow Railroad (https://www.rainbowrailroad.org)--------Social Media Plugs@ThisEndsAtProm@BJColangelo@HarmonyColangelo----------Logo Design: Haley Doodles @HaleyDoodleDoTheme Song: The Sonder Bombs 'Title': https://thesonderbombs.bandcamp.com/

In this Prof Responds episode of Critical Magic Theory, Professor Julian Wamble takes a critical look at Albus Dumbledore's most morally complicated choices in the Harry Potter series. Drawing on listener reflections from the Patreon post-episode chat, Prof examines how Dumbledore's permanent state of war shaped his treatment of Harry, the Order of the Phoenix, and the entire wizarding world — and how the myth of wartime necessity allows us to excuse harm done in the name of the “greater good.”Through connections to real-world wartime politics and parallels to The Hunger Games, this episode explores why Dumbledore fought evil without ever changing the system that produced it, and why loving a character doesn't mean we can't tell the truth about their actions. This is a deep, nuanced dive into power, trauma, leadership, and the limits of heroism in the Wizarding World.

In this episode of Chloe vs The World, Chloe is joined by Ieuan Cooke for a full deep dive into the worlds of Wicked, The Hunger Games, Fourth Wing, and the many corners of BookTok they both obsess over.

Which young men should be sent to fight in Vietnam? Amidst a growing public outcry against the biases in the system, the United States instituted a live televised lottery draft on December 1st, 1969. In a sombre spectacle, plexiglass drums and capsules containing birthdates were drawn live on CBS, dictating the order in which men born on that day might be conscripted. Youth delegates participated to symbolize approval from the draftees' generation, but some refused to cooperate; one storming off live on air, others making peace signs or reading out protests during the broadcast. Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain how this dystopian ‘Hunger Games' lottery came to be; consider the effect Vietnam the draft had on parenting and college statistics back home; and track their own birthdays to discover when they would have been drafted… Further Reading: • ‘Live From Washington, It's Lottery Night 1969!'

This week on The Intercept Briefing: What does it mean to work full-time in America and still not afford a place to live? We're resharing our conversation with journalist Brian Goldstone, whose new book “There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America,” examines this growing crisis. Goldstone's book — a finalist for the Carnegie Medal for Excellence in Nonfiction — reveals how people holding down jobs are increasingly living in their cars, motels, shelters, or on the streets. This episode originally aired August 29, 2025.Episode Description: Homeless sweeps have become the go-to, bipartisan performance of “doing something” about the U.S. housing crisis — a spectacle embraced by Democrats and Republicans, city halls, and the White House alike. But sweeps are not a solution. They're a way to make homelessness less visible while the crisis deepens.The roots stretch back decades. President Ronald Reagan's Tax Reform Act of 1986 pulled the federal government out of building and maintaining public housing, paving the way for a fragmented patchwork scheme of vouchers and tax credits. The result is the system we live with today — one that does little to stem the tide.Last year, more than 700,000 people were officially counted as homeless, the highest number ever recorded. Nearly 150,000 of them were children. And that number leaves out the “hidden homeless”: families doubling up in cramped apartments or bouncing between motels.“What causes homelessness, in the 1980s as now, is a lack of access to housing that poor and working-class people can afford,” says Brian Goldstone, journalist and author of the new book “There Is No Place for Us: Working and Homeless in America.”This week on The Intercept Briefing, Goldstone tells host Laura Flynn that the housing emergency is no accident; it's the product of deliberate political choices: “It's an engineered abandonment of not thousands, not hundreds of thousands, but millions of families.”Listen to the full conversation of The Intercept Briefing on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you listen.You can support our work at theintercept.com/join.

In this powerful continuation from last week's episode, Kevin expands the analogy of life as a game and reveals why psychological warfare isn't just a tactic used by others - it is the structure of the game itself. In a world made of energy, narrative, repetition, and belief, the true battlefield is not physical but cognitive. And the antidote - the only antidote - is cognitive mastery.Kevin begins by reframing the physical world as the byproduct, the “spice,” of a deeper energetic and consciousness-based reality. While life appears to unfold in space and time, the real game is psychological, and the pieces on the board are narratives, information, perception, and belief. From the Age of Aquarius to the accelerated revelation of truth, Kevin explains how modern culture exposes its mechanisms everywhere - from Hollywood films to the news cycle to the design of the systems we live in.He revisits the illusory truth effect, a cognitive phenomenon proven by research showing that anything repeated often enough - true or false - becomes “truer” simply through familiarity. That repeated exposure forms neural pathways which harden into beliefs, even when later evidence contradicts them. And without cognitive mastery, the C-line of your model becomes an open gate, allowing the world to write your T-line for you.To show how deep this goes, Kevin walks through three pillars of the matrix: government, religion, and corporations. Using bold, historically grounded examples, he demonstrates how narratives become mass conditioning. From the Gulf of Tonkin to the JFK assassination, he illustrates how national stories shape perception long after their factual foundations have fallen away. He compares modern political and media structures to The Hunger Games, cautioning listeners not to confuse narrative with lived reality.From there, he shifts to religion - particularly the Abrahamic traditions - discussing how language, translation, withheld information, and ideological frameworks created an unseen but omnipresent narrative structure shaping Western consciousness. He introduces the “Redeemer Complex,” a narrative so ingrained in Western culture that it becomes the invisible water we swim in - impossible to see without stepping outside of it.Kevin then turns to corporations, explaining how marketing and advertising use psychology, repetition, and scarcity narratives to engineer desire, identity, and behavior. He breaks down the “Rule of Seven” and how companies leverage cognitive patterns to make their story feel like your own internal truth.Throughout, Kevin emphasizes that none of this is about vilifying systems or people. The matrix is neutral - even supportive. It exists as a compensatory mechanism for unconsciousness, a form of grace within the human game. The goal is not rebellion but awareness, not resistance but mastery.Your liberation lies in one thing: elevating your alpha, mastering your mind, and choosing your own narrative. No story outside of you is true - unless you accept it. Cognitive mastery is how you become in the world, but not of it.

Thanksgiving gets a full roast this episode as we dive into the annual paradox of expressing gratitude while elbowing strangers for the last can of cranberry sauce. We swap stories about chaotic grocery runs, family traditions that include creatively vandalizing greeting cards, and the unspoken rule that certain topics are banned at dinner unless you want to watch Uncle Larry spontaneously combust. We tackle the spiritual mystery of why Thanksgiving and Black Friday sit next to each other on the calendar like a wholesome nun sharing a bunk bed with a pickpocket. There’s also talk of buffet lines, questionable food preferences, holiday decorating schedules that start before the dishes are washed, and the alarming number of Pop-Tart flavors that should not exist. Basically, it’s a lighthearted stroll through the commercialization of gratitude season, where everyone insists they’re thankful while also fighting for parking spots like it’s the Hunger Games.
