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. All leading up to the theatrical release of Sunrise On The Reaping this November.  Visit BookedAllNight.CO for more info.
