Watch THE HUNGER GAMES Free On YouTube

Want to escape the feeling of currently living in a real life dystopia by watching a fictional dystopian adaptation? Good news: film production company Lionsgate has created Lionsgate Live! A Night at the Movies to stream free films on Youtube. Up first is The Hunger Games which will stream Friday at 6 pm ET, hosted by Jamie Lee Curtis. Perfect timing considering the prequel, The Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes, is set to release in May.

Goalkeeper, Publisher, And Author

Did you know that Portland Timbers’ (Major League Soccer) goalkeeper Jeff Attinella is a children’s author and has a family founded publishing company called It Had To Be Told? He has four children’s books that are sports themed (The Curse Ends: The Story of the 2016 Chicago Cubs), and one about the race to get to the moon (The Great Space Race: The Story of How America Put a Man on the Moon)! Story time just got extra fun for sports loving parents.
