#77 Fireside Chat: Unscripted 4.0

Hunger Games Fireside Chat Podcast

It's that time again! We weren't able to do an "Unscripted" episode last month due to the barrage of Catching Fire news, so this is well overdue. We have no set plan or agenda in place for Episode 77. We do, however, have a grab bag full of listener-submitted questions, discussion topics, Crackpot Theories, What Ifs?, Would You Rathers?, and Cave/Marry/Kills. We choose topics from the grab bag (or "topic cornucopia") at random and discuss, debate, and speculate! Update: The topics we pulled out of the bag are listed below! - What is/was between Haymitch and Effie? A love-hate relationship? Acceptance? Just love? Only hate? (submitted by Matilda) - Do you think Peeta isn't Mrs. Mellark's son? The books say that Peeta has two older brothers and doesn't mention Mrs. Mellark abusing them at all, because perhaps they are her only two blood sons? (submitted by Noelle) - What are the strategies that you feel Lionsgate is going to need to use to keep us all "connected" to this franchise over winter/spring of 2013? (submitted by Michael F.) - "I never really thought about it in the books until a previous post suggested Buttercup was a muttation. What if Buttercup was a mutt sent by D13 to find the perfect person to start a rebellion?" - Cave, Marry, Kill: Bonnie, Katniss, and Seneca Crane's Beard (submitted by McKenna K.)
