Charlotte & Laura return to Panem for this week's episode of The Lettuce Podcast. They review the second novel in Suzanne Collins' Hunger Games series: Catching Fire. They chat about the long list of characters, Collins' world-building abilities, and compare the feature film to its source material. Charlotte loves learning more information about Haymitch and how he won his games. Laura shares which Peeta scene was not included in the movie, to her disappointment. Together the girls re-investigate Katniss' “Mary-Sue” tendencies, discuss whether they are Team Peeta or Team Gale, try to determine all of the moves made by Plutarch Heavensbee, and more!
A short Fun & Games segment features Charlotte and Laura playing their favorite cross-fandom game: Sorting Hat. They choose a handful of characters from Catching Fire and decide which of the Hogwarts houses they belong in. Play along and share your thoughts in the comments.
Looking to sip on something while listening to this episode or reading/watching Catching Fire. Laura chose the Haymitch Ebernethy path, also chosen by Katniss in this book: white liquor! Pour yourself a couple fingers of gin, vodka, white rum, or whatever white liquor you fancy. Laura chose gin!
