Notes from the Oracle: A Percy Jackson and Mythology Podcast

Chapter 5: I Play Pinochle with a Horse | The Lightning Thief


Listen Later

Listen in as Connor and Jack go on a variety on tangents in this slower chapter of the novel. Will Connor pronounce Pinochle correctly in this episode? No! Is he wrong about how many times Argus appears in the book? Yes! All that and more as they discuss the food of the gods, Nectar and Ambrosia, and introduce you to the watchful Argus as well as Camp Half-blood's director, Dionysus, just like Chiron does for Percy Jackson.
