    The Hunger Games: Catching Fire Mar 03, 2020

    Andreas's audio is not good for the first half! Jump to around 40 minutes to get into the part of the episode that's much cleaner. But listen to us debate a lot of things. The ending of Don't F**k with Cats, Star Wars, The Bachelor, and of course, the second installment of The Hunger Games franchise.
