We Accidentally Vaporized Our Podcast

Lochlyn and Lauren spend a long time discussing the worst and best parts of the underworld in this episode.  Unfortunately, they still managed to miss what would have been the joke of the season, so insert your own Sandals Resort/The Office joke for the Isle of the Blest. There are also questions about gatekeeping for Elysium and the legitimacy of the entire system.  Lochlyn and Lauren want much more detail about different aspects of the Underworld, but all in all, the main lesson from this episode is to improve your core strength in case your shoes become sentient and try to kill you.

Lauren says “Yea-ah” about 20 times in this episode (she’s sorry about that). Death is also talked about a lot in this episode. A lot. A very serious amount of death talk. It’s almost like this episode takes place in the underworld or something. Also do you agree with Lauren or Lochlyn? And if you’re wondering what you’re agreeing with them about then you should listen to this episode and find out!

Lauren starts this episode off with a very modest and true bang! Lochlyn brings up a terrifying shark scenario and we talk about how we get our news these days. Lochlyn also introduces a new phrase that Lauren absolutely refuses to use. Lauren may or may not be rude to Lochlyn a little in this episode. Overall a normal and ordinary episode of We Accidentally Vaporized Our Podcast!

At the top of this week's episode, Lauren gives a summary that is so detailed, the hosts consider ending the episode there.  They decide, however, to forge along and discuss how Sally is 100% for sure not dead, the proper etiquette of sharing and eating Oreos, and the parallels between Percy and Thalia's arrival at camp.  Lochlyn accidentally implies that one of the bad guy's henchmen might be Grover, and everyone feels bad about it.  They also talk about their surprise at how short the Lotus Hotel scene is when it was one of the best parts of the movie.  With all of that to look forward to, enjoy chapter 16: We Take A Zebra To Vegas.

In this episode of We Accidentally Vaporized Our Podcast Lauren and Lochlyn almost get into a fight! Lochlyn gives her the stink eye and Lauren retreats. They talk about conspiracy theories surrounding one of our favorite characters: Annabeth. They also present some plans that Percy and the Trio should have followed, that unfortunately, they didn't. Lauren also says the word "water" weirdly (seriously how did I not know how weirdly I said it?) and Lochlyn professes her hatred of the god who is buying them cheeseburgers. So stay tuned and enjoy Episode 15: WAT RAD!

In this short yet extremely chaotic episode, Lochlyn and Lauren talk about the aftermath of Percy jumping off of the Arch, mixed signals from a water spirit, and if the Mist is similar to the Christmas magic in The Polar Express.  Lots of strong opinions came out this week, but luckily everything remained civil! TW for discussions of suicide ideation within the text.

In lucky number 13, Lauren and Lochlyn talk a surprising amount of Divergent for a podcast about Percy Jackson (spoiler warning for the final Divergent book). Other topics mentioned are cool mortal appropriate nicknames for the gods, what might happen if the trio ends up in jail, and some fun elevator math that Lauren probably got wrong. So listen and enjoy this episode of We Accidentally Vaporized Our Podcast!

In this episode, Lauren and Lochlyn ask: do you even care about themes? Lauren also talks a little too much about sleepovers and Lochlyn is sentimental about stars. Though this episode may be on the shorter side it isn't lacking in off-topic rants and making fun of Percy. So sit back and enjoy hearing Lauren and Lochlyn talk about Chapter 12: We Get Advice From a Poodle.

This week, Lochlyn and Lauren discuss the trio's visit to the Garden Gnome Emporium!  In this episode, they learn the importance of listening to your friends and utilizing found objects in your environment.  They once again consider satyrs and their interactions with other animal species and go on several other tangents (which is to be expected at this point).  Lochlyn is just now realizing the lack of Uma Thurman references and is very disappointed in this recording; hopefully, you will still enjoy it in spite of that!

Quest time!! Percy, Annabeth and Grover are venturing out into the world with no supervision. Of course, things go wrong and danger and action ensue.  This week's detours include a return to the finances of camp, cellphones, childhood classroom technology and fanny packs.  We do eventually get back around to the main event of the chapter: bus ruining.
