103 - Forget Turkey Talk; Are You Ready For Hunger Games?

Well, hi. Mary’s voice is extra squeaky today, so even though it might be as painful to listen to as it was for her to speak, we hope it’s at least tolerable for you, friends. But it’s definitely worth it to hear Lexy’s insights and stories from her work as security for Lionsgate, at several Utah premieres of The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes (the 2023 film, based on the 2020 Novel and Hunger Games prequel by Suzanne Collins). Also, check out Lexy’s cool P.I. aunt here on Instagram.

 

Alexis was able to get quite familiar with the show, and watching it more than once resolved her concern about plot holes. There were a couple of themes that stood out for her: trust, and this quote from Snow: “We all do things we aren’t proud of to survive.” Lexy then talks a bit about what we do when we’re in survival mode.

 

She mentions this quote from Jeff Jarvis, author of What Would Google Do (2009): "The more you control, the less you will be trusted. The more you hand over control, the more trust you will earn."
