Between Death and Disgrace: A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Part 2

📚Send us Fan Mail! 💖 Why is popular fiction so full of obsessive men who jealously stake their claim over women? What is it about this possessive streak that so many people find entrancing when it's so clearly a sign of self-fixation? AND WHY ARE ALL THE POV CHARACTERS IN THE HUNGER GAMES SO BAD AT ACKNOWLEDGING THEIR FRIENDSHIPS??? Julia and Maggie tackle the continuing... continuation? solidification? definition? of Coriolanus Snow into the villain we love in this exploration of chapters 11-20 of Suzanne Collins's A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes. We volunteer as tribute--repeatedly. We're diving into the world of The Hunger Games: all 5 books, all 6 movies breaking down the world, the characters, the feelings, that weird thing with the pearl, our hatred for Gale, our love for Haymitch, & more. All leading up to the theatrical release of Sunrise On The Reaping this November. Visit BookedAllNight.CO for more info.

Co-ri-ol-ANUS: A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, Part 1

📚Send us Fan Mail! 💖 What makes a good villain? More importantly, do the elements that make for a good villain translate into the elements that make for a compelling POV character? While we're at it, how do you pronounce all of these names? Corio-what? Se-Jonas Brothers? Can we get away with calling Clem-whatever-who-turns-into-a-lizard "Clizzard?" ("Yer a clizzard, Harry!") Join Jess, Katy, Julia, and Maggie as they tackle Part 1 of Suzanne Collins's A Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes and its exploration of the world that would make the Hunger Games relevant. (And also what happens when recording gets rescheduled for a night in which Producer Rob has a volunteering commitment. Jeez, you miss one night, guys...) We volunteer as tribute--repeatedly. We're diving into the world of The Hunger Games: all 5 books, all 6 movies breaking down the world, the characters, the feelings, that weird thing with the pearl, our hatred for Gale, our love for Haymitch, & more.

An Interview With Ourselves! (Part 1)

📚Send us Fan Mail! 💖 Have you ever wanted to learn the dark secrets of your favorite podcasters? Why is it that Julia has never read any of the books on her shelves at home? How many degrees does Jess really have? Why is Katy compelled to make constant Titanic references? How deep does Maggie's noodle obsession go? How do you pronounce "Schenectady"? Join us for the first half of a special Self-Interview session in which Jess, Julia, and Maggie tackle several of these questions, discuss horrific injuries, wait for Chinese Take-Out, and get a dose of their own medicine with a host-tailored Never Have I Ever. We volunteer as tribute--repeatedly. We're diving into the world of The Hunger Games: all 5 books, all 6 movies breaking down the world, the characters, the feelings, that weird thing with the pearl, our hatred for Gale, our love for Haymitch, & more.

Maybe Yes or Definitely Yes: An Interview with Sarah Everett

📚Send us Fan Mail! 💖 Can you believe this is one of the final interviews of the season? Because that's insane. This week, Sarah Everett stopped by to talk about THE ROMANCE REWIND. Jess and Sarah both have a love of The Flashlight Method, a writing craft tool to work in smaller segments of your work, some weird internet research history (as all writers do), and of course, their hatred for group projects. They played BRING YOUR OWN BOOK and SPACE 'EM OR EMBRACE 'EM. We volunteer as tribute--repeatedly. We're diving into the world of The Hunger Games: all 5 books, all 6 movies breaking down the world, the characters, the feelings, that weird thing with the pearl, our hatred for Gale, our love for Haymitch, & more.

Everywhere-a-Lag-Lag: Mockingjay, 22-28

📚Send us Fan Mail! 💖 As we bring our time with the original Hunger Games trilogy to a close (the books, at least; join us for the remaining movies over the next two weeks), we have the chance to retrospect on Suzanne Collins's Mockingjay, its fit with the other books, and its place in history. So naturally, Jess and Katy skim over this this in favor of discussing the significance of pacing as communication, the importance of fanfiction, what makes for a good sacrificial lamb character, and the bad habit of stretching an IP too far. We volunteer as tribute--repeatedly. We're diving into the world of The Hunger Games: all 5 books, all 6 movies breaking down the world, the characters, the feelings, that weird thing with the pearl, our hatred for Gale, our love for Haymitch, & more.
