In our first full episode, we’re unravelling the threads of The Lightning Thief chapters 1 and 2, diving into Percy Jackson’s chaotic yet iconic introduction to the mythological world. A field trip to the Met goes from a yawn-fest to life-threatening as Percy faces a monster masquerading as his pre-algebra teacher. Armed with a pen that turns into a sword (don’t you wish you had that in math class?), Percy steps into a world he never asked for.

Grab your blue cookies, and let’s navigate the Sea of Spoilers together. This is a retrospective deep dive, so no breadcrumb of prophecy or twist is left unexplored—from The Lightning Thief to Wrath of the Triple Goddess. You’ve been warned!
