  • Summary

  • After two recordings of this episode, the hosts have a lot to say about YA and teen media. The hosts were all right in the target demographic as franchises like Twilight and The Hunger Games dominated the box offices. They talk about how media is marketed to teens, how teens are portrayed, and who is doing the portraying. From the unrealistic pressures put on teens characters, to why death of the artist isn’t a great attitude for teen fiction, and how teens are dressed as well as how teens look and interact with one another.
