We are very sleep deprived in this one, so topics somehow include the recession, the U.S. education system, and...milk? After getting Hecuba home, Percy, Annabeth, and Grover turn to finding Gale. We learn some more about Hecate's magic school and Sally's potential connection to it. Percy and Grover have a nice bonding moment, and Grover almost die…

We start off this episode by being really confused about the timeline, thanks to some great points from listeners re: Percy's comments about Leo. Rick definitely doesn't know his own timeline. In these chapters, the gang is on the hunt for Hecuba this week, who is having a grand old time terrorizing Greek businesses. They fight undead warriors and …

Grover... you've really done it this time. We return to our roots, aka, making fun of Grover. Also Erin has a new microphone and it becomes her whole personality. Grover explodes the house because he has no self control, and the pets escape. If Manasa was Percy, she'd have to go on a lot of walks. Mrs. O'Leary shows up (we all missed her very much)…

Today's episode is all about pet ownership. Percy, Annabeth, and Grover enter their domestic pet-sitting era at Hecate's mansion, and last almost a whole day before chaos breaks out. Erin thinks that Hecate is actually a very good dog (and polecat) mom. The trio learns that walking a polecat and a hellhound is not for the faint of heart. Manasa dee…

This week, we're predicting the plot of Wrath of the Triple Goddess (out September 23, 2024!!!). But of course, we can't do things normally, because we're Camp Half-Pod. We turn our predictions into a competitive BINGO game, and you can play along and make your own BINGO sheet if you want! This is the free BINGO generator we used: https://myfreebin…

We are finally caught up on all PJO-universe books! Round of applause for Camp Half-Pod. This week, we are discussing the final chapters of Chalice of the Gods. Percy completes his quest, and we learn what clotted cream is (it’s a big day for all of us). The book wraps up nicely with some Sally, Paul, and Annabeth time. We wonder how Poseidon calls…

This week we are joined by our friend Ishanie! Ishanie, long time Percy Jackson fan and person who knew us in high school, gets to hear us get low key emotional about growing old. Percy faces Geras, the god of old age (our predictions were right!!). We come down firmly against loin cloths. Manasa wishes Geras wore a cute old man sweater. Erin reads…

This one starts off strong, with Percy enchanting a bunch of snakes with a rainbow (the snakes say gay rights!). They complete their quest for Iris, and in exchange learn about a mysterious Gary (not the snail), who has likely stolen the cup. Percy gives relationship advice to Grover. Erin still thinks Grover is a bad boyfriend. Sally announces her…

This week we are joined by our new friend Mal from Demigod Debut Podcast to talk all about The River Elisson and Yonkers. Mal confesses to crimes almost immediately. Erin thinks Grover is a bad boyfriend again. What was the point of Blanche? We’re not sure. Mal, a New York resident, gives us some context on Yonkers. We give Percy a new name. He is …

Did you know there is deep lore about Hebe and lettuce? Well, you do now! Tune in to learn about how lettuce might be Hebe’s real dad. Also, Percy, Annabeth, and Grover fight some chickens as 8 year olds (classic shenanigans). We get some insight on a normal demigod week. We lament growing older and sound like we’re pushing 60 despite not even bein…

We are so excited to start Chalice of the Gods with you all and get back to reading about Percy, Annabeth, and Grover! We start off with chapters 1-6, and celebrate the return of first person Percy. There are some real sweet Percabeth moments in these first few chapters. Also, Sally Jackson. Percy embarks on his new quest, with the help of his best…

Camp Half-Pod completes another book! We are wrapping up The Sun and The Star this week with the final chapters. Nico realizes that he can leave behind his trauma baby demons. They defeat Nyx with the help of Nyx's own children. Bob gets to see the sky again! The cacodemons are rebranded as the Cocoa Puffs, which Manasa low-key hates and Erin loves…

We lose our minds a bit in this one. Nico and Will finally reach Nyx’s house! It’s made of bugs! Manasa accuses Nyx of being poor and boring, and not able to afford real walls. Manasa also projects onto Dr. Thorn this week, in a turn of events nobody saw coming. Bob is being kept in a Bob Pod in the Bug House. Is Nico the star? Or is he actually th…

We are joined once again by repeat guest Robert of TheDamMemePage to discuss chapters 33-38! Will fights off evil dogs while Nico befriends a mania. We see some returning characters (Small!! Bob!!) and locations (Tartarus Shrek’s Swamp). Nico and Will continue to have relationship problems. Manasa has to put the book down when we meet Carl and Bart…

Nico and Will finally make it to Tartarus! Erin uses the word penchant. It triggers Manasa. We spend a while insulting Nyx and her methods. Gorgyra gives Will and Nico couples therapy. They still need more couples therapy tbh. Nico and Will make the fall via the river of pain, and land amongst bones and acid rain. Will tries to help while Nico take…

It’s time to learn all about Nico’s experience in Tartarus, the first time. We miss the dumb giants from Gaea’s army. Nyx has a lot of babies, including hordes of children, which is fun.
