# Hunger Games **URL:** **By** Peter Suderman, Marianne March, Landry Ayres, Natalie Dowzicky **Published:** July 29, 2020 --- Peter Suderman and Marianne March join the show today to discuss the dystopian young adult novels and movies; The Hunger Games. ## Summary: In a dystopian future, the totalitarian nation of Panem is divided into 12 districts and the Capitol. Each year two young representatives from each district are selected by lottery to participate in The Hunger Games. The Hunger Games not only serves as entertainment for the Capitol, but it also serves as a reminder to the Districts about how much power the Capitol actually has to suppress them.
