Rereading the Revolution

• "It's Been a Long Time Coming" | Sunrise on the Reaping

  “I was genuinely afraid…I might throw up from crying so hard.”It’s the one you’ve all been waiting for…everything for the past three months has led to this. We’re joined by very special guest Emma Skies to discuss the most anticipated release since we launched our podcast, Sunrise on the Reaping (2025!).We return to District 12 one more time to cover our initial thoughts and reactions, fan theories, Panem and America, Suzanne Collins and Lionsgate’s balance between art and commerce, and what this book means to The Hunger Games series’ legacy. We lose track of how many times we use the words "brutal" and "devastating." This is our longest episode yet and we easily could’ve talked about this book for another hour because there’s so much to dig into!Correction: Francis Lawrence is coming back for the 5th time as director if you count the Mockingjays separately!Correction 2: I just learned that we’ve been pronouncing azure wrong.

• "Rachel Zegler Defense Squad" | The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes Movie

  "Two things I love: you and cheating."We're back and rejoined by special guest and Ballad movie superfan Mara to cover the most recent movie in The Hunger Games series, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (2023). Unlike the book episode, we're all on the same page with this one--it's a shockingly good adaptation and valued addition to the franchise. We discuss how this movie got made, changes from the book, and our inner fangirls coming out in a big way for this one.Movie location breakdown: https://movie-locations.com/movies/h/ballad-of-songbirds-and-snakes.phpMara’s socials: @maras_storiesMara's podcast: @no_beta_podcastFollow us on social media @rereadingtherevolution for updates and behind-the-scenes details!

  "Hippie motto: Peace, love, and comfort."Kellie, Daphne, and special guest Camille are back to discuss the less-loved half of the original Hunger Games movie franchise, Mockingjay: Part 1 (2014), and Mockingjay: Part 2 (2015).
