I LOVE THIS BOOK! I’ve taught this book to so many students. It’s fantastic for teaching dystopian fiction. And my students DID read it….i think.
I remember reading the giver last year, I did read it…. But after the unit was over lol
I READ IT IN 7TH GRADE IT WAS EPIC
I read the giver in 5th grade. Best book ever!
I loved reading it. It was one of the books, i was actually interested in
i read it in ela and i loved it so much! my favorite book i read that year.
“We should stay in touch.”
“I would love to touch.”
😂
WE GETTING AN F WITH THIS ONE 🔥🔥🗣️🗣️🗣️⁉️⁉️⁉️
F for Fantastic!
F IN THE CHAT BOYSSS
heath's costume just being a black and white screen is really clever
and a lot more budget friendly lol i’m sure the others haven’t been so far
I wasn’t sure about Tommy at first, but now that he has gotten comfortable and more confident I love him on this! He’s so funny!
Yes!
plonkplonkplonk
same but the baby bit changed my mind this episode lol that one got me
I freaking love Tommy. I liked him from the first short with him
idk he doesnt match the og four tho
The Giver was one of those books that I genuinely liked but then saw the movie and now all I can associate with it is a grown man watching kids play war and then breaking down asking them to stop because he was “given” wartime ptsd
The movie was so bad lol
This came out right when I sat down for my midnight cereal
that is so wonderful
Oh my god! German person here, the Giver was the first book given to us in english class that ever hooked me-
I think I read the whole thing in one day
WE STEALING THE STOLE WITH THIS ONE🔥🗣🔥🔥🗣🗣
I was gonna sleep, but it seems I've been given the gift of a new reason to stay awake. Lovely!
ugh alright, since I know you were gonna ask, YEs... today IS my birthday! and this was the best birthday gift I could've received. LOVEd it my friends
Happy birthday!!,🎁🎂🎉🎊🎈
@@joleecathcart7861 aw thank you! So kind!
happy birthday - grace and julia (trust me)
I was show going to ask. Happy birthday
It’s important that people know that there is a sequels but it’s from Gabriel’s birth mother’s perspective and it’s about her leaving the community and going on an adventure to find her son
There’s technically 4 books in the series. Gathering Blue (Jonas is implied to be around) Messenger (Jonas is in the book and Gabriel is mentioned in the book) Son (Gabriel’s mom Claire is the m.c. Jonas and Gabriel come up later)
These are all the books after the events of The Giver (arguably I think the first I think is the best, but the others are great too)
@@user-ts2og7lc1z true! I read them all a long time ago, so I actually forgot that there were references to Jonas and Gabriel in Gathering Blue and Messenger, though I knew they were in the same world and, if I recall correctly, there are characters from all of them in Son. Doesn’t Jonas marry the main character from Gathering Blue? Or was that just my 15 year old conspiracy theory brain?
@@clarebeforebreakfast5044 He does marry her. Her name was Kira. I’m pretty sure they have kids as well.
@@user-ts2og7lc1z sweet! I really need to read those books again!
omg the giver is one of my fav books, I was so invested in it when we had to read the book in 6th grade, lol I wonder what twist the cast shall give to this book
I love this podcast soooooooo much
The Outsiders by S.E Hinton would be so good!!!
i was just thinking the same thing!
34:09 Ryan smiling 😭😭
he literally has the sweetest smile
Genuinely in love with these podcasts, and the way you guys can improvise an entire plot off eachother's dialogues, is just phenomenal !!
This felt more like a reminder to loosen up a lil in life, and gives a new perspective to these classics that i could have never imagined. just hoping you guys never stop making these. looking forward to the next one!!
Love to Hyde,Grace,Julia n Ryan
Id really love it if yall have subtitles for these videos!! I have hearing issues + auditory comprehension issues so its really hard for me to watch videos without subtitles, and i absolutely love yalls channel!! Ive watched every video except for the ones without subtitles lol
All of this is /not forcing of course!! This is yalls channel and you guys can do whatever you want with it!!
J.D. Salinger's "The Catcher in the Rye"
Yes! My favorite!
Of Mice and Men
GRAPES OF WRATH
I love the conversation julia led about The rat race, very validating to hear when i live in such a competitive city and constantly feel like there is no humanity to be found
11:59 the visual of the director yelling action, the music starting and Jonas just flopping on to the ground is so hilarious to me 😂
this was the most unhinged episode yet. i'm deeply impressed
Congratulations, Julia!!! So happy for you!!
Title alone this is my favorite episode. Y'all are amazing!

Or Gregor the Overlander, I LOVE Suzanne Collin's books and that series is my favorite
It will always bother me that we never got a direct part two of the giver. But it’s one of the things that makes the read special.

Tommy’s rlly funny glad he’s staying, you guys should bring on other guests as well from the videos ❤
I first read this book and series when I was in fifth grade and absolutely fell in love with it ❤

How are you guys pumping these out so fast! I've been so busy I haven't watched the past like two or three lollll

You guys would be so great at doing Catcher in the Rye! I would really look forward to that. I really would!
i literally just read this book for school!!!!! I will cite you when i do the essay.
Omg I can’t believe they are covering the giver
Man I remember dreading reading the giver when I first received the book in 6th grade English but at the end of it I was obsessed. Fire book
FINALLY A BOOK I’VE ACTUALLY READ!!!
For the happy memory question, I have two. One has been my happy memory for a while and one that I only started thinking about recently.
The first one was me and a friend sitting outside at 4-5AM on my birthday as the sun was coming up and the world was so silent and smelled so fresh.
The second one is one from a while ago that I only recently started going back to a lot. My best friend that I had a crush on leaned his head on my shoulder as we both sat in the backseat of a car on the way back from a friend’s birthday. I remember exactly how it felt, how I felt, how his shirt felt, how the car felt. I miss him.
Both are pretty gay memories ngl
I literally had to read this in class a couple months ago
We are literally just finished the book and we started to watch the movie.
I need the full version of the intro song, please I'm obsessed😭
Oh btw congrats Julia for graduating
Literally just finished reading this f🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
This was great, I needed to study for my test next Friday for the book
Bro I loved the giver so much when I read it and even more when I saw the movie.
I am reading this in school right now🥰
I think this is the first I didn't read it I've watched where I actually didn't read it.
This book was my favorite teacher's book.... he named his kid after Jonas! I also owned this book but honestly this version of the book is quite interesting lol
ready player one is a rough read but i enjoyed it in middle school too
I LITEALLY JUST READ THIS IN CLASS
I NEED to read the sequel soooo badly
julia has a really good ariana
I would love to see them do Pride & Prejudice!!
Congrats on the graduation!!
2am is crazy
Pleeeeease do the chrysalids or a wrinkle in time. Two major faves!!!
started super funny the was just "do you need to contribute to society"!!
29:20 I got so nervous... My name is Josephine
My favorite book :3
I READ THIS BOOK AND I LIKED IT
i loved this book when i read it in middle school (i ended up reading the whole series lol) so im so excited to see this
(also imo the movie does not do the book justice)
this one was my favorite so far, maybe it’s because it’s the only one i’ve read 🤷♀️
i remember my sixth grade teacher reading this to the class
as this series goes on, I’m realizing how many of the ‘classics’ I’ve actually never read 😅
I read this last week lol
7:23 tungo the receiver of pleasure
my favorite english teacher taught us this book when i was in seventh grade
Ryan as Gabriel 😭
Never read the book but the best thing about the movie was the piano scene.
7:21 Tungo Reciever of Pleasures
Smoosh fan! I’m so mad about Sword AF being audio only. Damn Spencer smoking the weed just one time 😂
@@MommyOfMutants yeah, it was disappointing, but I'll still listen! Also, yes, just once 😉
As a librarian put it, that book is chilling.
Tommy Armstrong is a great addition
I had to do a book report on this
You guys should do pride and prejudice by Jane Austin
dude, im literally reading this story right now for school--
In my seventh grade class, the teacher assigned us occupations that were in the book. The thing was, she was very biased, so you could tell who she liked by what she assigned them to be.
I got the receiver.
congrats on graduating
