<![CDATA[The Adaptation Games]]>Welcome to The Adaptation Games, a Hunger Games Podcast where we are taking a look at all of the Hunger Games books, their adaptations into the film series and their place in the media landscape.

Join Kels and Ash as they analyze how the creative teams condensed the novels into films and how themes come through in the context of the series as a whole. We will look to add new perspectives by analyzing historical context, laughing through misunderstandings and discovering more connected themes than we ever realized. Whether you’re an expert in Hunger Games lore or you’ve only seen the movies and want to learn more, listen along as we dive deeper and deeper and deeper and hopefully laugh and learn something new.

Episodes release on Fridays wherever you get your podcasts!
