News and Updates (00:09:42)

So, remember us dreaming of Percy Jackson video games? Fortnite is the first!

You won't want to miss the cast reactions to the game, either.

Have you seen this billboard, yet?

These kids have style. Has anyone else been paying attention to their clothes during this press tour?!

If you haven't heard of Percember, now you have.

A little behind the scenes footage for the Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 1 premiere!

Oh, and Percy Jackson and the Olympians is certified fresh at 100% for season 2!

Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 1 breakdown (00:21:48)

Grover asks for a sign and gets... thunder? Zeus? You got something to say?

Grover meets Allison Simms on his hunt for Pan.

We love cool details like the tentacle/bedsheet connection.

Book to show changes: How do we feel about Tyson and Percy living with Sally instead of being at boarding school?

Is the eyeball weird for you guys? Kristen thinks its just her brain.

Annabeth will pick you up in a freaky taxi if she has a bad dream.

Tyson's one eye and the Gray Sisters one eye are not the same thing.

Percy and Annabeth have both kept some things out of their letters.

Thank goodness Tyson is fireproof!

No Colchis bull makes Karen a little disappointed.

Luke is up to no good, and this time it involves stabbing a friend. What the heck, Luke?!

Meet Tantalus, whom we did not worry about picturing when we read the book.

We get some classic Disney innuendo and Karen can't believe they got away with it.

Percy chooses Tyson, and we don't think he's in the wrong.

Tyson is going to make us cry this season. We just know it.

Annabeth settles in to talk to her girl bestie... who just so happens to be a tree. Don't judge.

Empathy link dream, baby! Percy and Grover are so freaking cute in this scene.

Coordinates.

Percy goes to Annabeth this time, because he's got an idea on how to save Thalia's tree and camp.

New season, new post credits artwork, and there are hints at all the big tentpole monsters and moments that we can think of.

We are both very interested in some art prints of the credit artwork.

Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast highlights (01:35:29)

Should the official podcast be called Grover Underwood and the Olympians instead?

Walker and Leah are Aryan's first guests.

We get a look at the original trio's chemistry read and they are SO YOUNG!

Walker is being very careful about the Percabeth timeline. He knows they have a long way to go in their friendship before either of them will be ready to play their bond like anything more.

Welcome Daniel Diemer, aka Tyson!

Lots of stories about their acting coach, Andrew, especially when he told Daniel his run looked a little too goofy. Oops. Too bad he wasn't going for anything but just, running.

Tyson’s Taxi Time Talk Show is the podcast's inspiration

Jason Mantzoukas crashes the pod and he is CHAOS (copied and pasted directly from Karen's notes).

We love that they are using the Big House to record the podcast.

Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 148, where we'll recap Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 2, as well as the next episode of the Official Percy Jackson Podcast.

This episode’s hosts are: Karen and Kristen

Each episode, Prophecy Radio's hosts will discuss any official news coming out of Camp Half-Blood before doing a chapter by chapter reread of Percy Jackson or one of Rick Riordan's other series.
