Join Lydia, Hadas, and Kendall aka Distracted Blogger in our Common Room as we talk about the Rise of the Dystopian genre. This time, we'll be focusing on what we call Political Dystopian and its popularity. Why are there so many dystopian movies and books shoved in our faces in the last five years? We discuss the difference between Political and Environmental, why they might be relatable at this time, and come up with a random theory about Sharknado. Slight Spoilers of The Hunger Games and Divergent series from 13:24 to 14:30. Topical Dish and Obsessions (TDO) are now on their own special mini eps. Click the play button on this page!
