The 42cast Episode 8: Apocalyptic Teenage Dreams

Apocalyptic_Teenage_Dreams

Ever wonder what’s been going on with all these novels and movies about teenagers living in apocalyptic scenarios? So do we. That’s why this week we decided to talk about what’s driving these apocalyptic teenage dreams. We talk about female protagonists, following the dollar, adaptation integrity, movie length, and so much more. Nathan asks the eternal question of whether Suzanne Collins is fibbing when she says that she hadn’t seen or read Battle Royale and Rachele makes sure that we all know her opinion of The Giver. We may have also come up for a new use for Pokemon Go – matchmaking.

This episode Beth, Nate, and Rachele join the cast.
