About this episode

Britt and Chris discuss Peeta Mellark's character from The Hunger Games, highlighting his key moments and areas for improvement.

This week is all about the Boy with the Bread! Britt and Chris exclaim over so many aspects of Peeta's character and their favorite moments from the books – from pledging a month's winnings in District 11, to adjusting his romantic expectations, to warning District 13 of the Capitol's attack. They also discuss a couple areas Peeta Mellark could use some work, what activity he'd lead in the Sacrificial Boys Club, a couple fascinating lenses they'd want to see applied to his character, and so much more!
