Camp Half-Pod: A Percy Jackson Podcast

Just two demigods who love Percy Jackson. Join Erin and Manasa as we dive into the canon of the Percy Jackson universe, a few chapters at a time. We'll be going through not only Percy Jackson and the Olympians, but also Heroes of Olympus, Trials of Apollo, and the companion books. Get ready for lots of speculating and dorky jokes!

    156: Is Valhalla A Cult? (SWORD OF SUMMER Ch 13-18)

    Magnus learns all about Valhalla this week. We reveal just how late in life we learned that Davey Crockett and Leif Erikson were real people. We deep dive on the Norns, and compare them to the Fates in Greek mythology. Sam, who we have already grown attached to, is removed from the Valkyries. Magnus gets to know his floormates more and then prepares for battle.

    155: Milk Comes Back To Haunt Us (SWORD OF SUMMER Ch 7-12)

    It's time for Magnus to die -- yay! Magnus dies heroically (or not so heroically, depending on who you ask...) and wakes up in a magical afterlife hotel. We meet a whole new cast of characters and deep dive into Norse Mythology. The Nanny Goat breaks our brains a bit. Is it mead? Or is it actually yogurt? Asking the important questions. Magnus meets Sam, who is already a favorite of ours, and learns about Hotel Valhalla.

    154: Y'all Were Right About Magnus Chase (SWORD OF SUMMER Ch 1-6)

    We are thrilled to be back and finally starting Magnus Chase! We hope this episode can bring you some joy amidst whatever is going on in your life/the world/etc. We admit it -- we didn't believe all of you about Magnus Chase. But these books are GOOD. We meet our hero, Magnus and get to see our fav, Annabeth Chase. We learn a bit about Norse mythology (something neither of us knew much about) and then watch Magnus get kidnapped by his crazy uncle to save a rusty sword.

    BONUS: At Least We Suffered Together (We Talk About BLOOD OF HERCULES)

    CONTENT WARNING: In this episode, we are discussing the adult novel, Blood of Hercules, after it went viral on PJO/mythology twitter. This book contains mature adult sexual themes, so if you are a younger listener or are uncomfortable with said themes, this episode is not for you (and we'll see you when we do Magnus Chase!). BLOOD OF HERCULES by Jasmine Mas went viral on Twitter. We're discussing what it's about, using our Greek myth expertise. We...did not like this book. At all. Topics in this book somehow include mathematician fanfiction, forced marriage, a misogynistic invisible talking snake, and being so hot four (4!!!) different chiseled men fall in love with you. We're breaking down everything that happens in this book so you don't have to read it, from the inaccurate portrayals of Greek/Roman mythology, to the problematic messages about asexuality and gender. You're welcome! Please enjoy this wild ride.

    153: Wrath Wrap Up + Mailbag (WRATH OF THE TRIPLE GODDESS Ch 37-39)

    Hecate arrives home, and Percy tells her everything that happened. She doesn’t punish him because he brought her a new puppy (fair enough). Percy convinces Hecate to reopen her magic school, much to Eudora’s excitement. Annabeth, Juniper, and Grover join the Jackson-Blofis household for dinner and they have a nice heartwarming ending. Juniper says people who move away don't leave us, they're just spreading their branches. Sending love to all of you lovely friends who are near and far away! Then, we discuss our overall thoughts on this book, read some emails, and play some audio messages. Make sure to stay for the end to hear what we plan to do next!

    152: Someone Was Finally Milked ft. Ishanie (WRATH OF THE TRIPLE GODDESS Ch 33-36)

    We are joined once again by friend of the podcast, Ishanie, to talk about some of the final chapters of this book! The fight with Peter and his ghosts is in full swing. The eels save the day, and somehow, milk is brought up. Again. We realize Peter is probably in Elysium (it's rigged!). Once again, we get confused by the timeline and by the references to so many modern pop culture moments. Percy throws a rager at Hecate's house. Camp Half-Pod does NOT endorse demigod children doing drugs. For legal purposes everything we have ever said is actually a bit we're doing!!! Don't cancel us!!! Percy and Annabeth have a super sweet heart-to-heart. We love our emotional support couple!

    151: We Learn Some New York City History (WRATH OF THE TRIPLE GODDESS Ch 29-32)

    Finally, we learn the truth about Sally. It's not as exciting as we were theorizing. Turns out, Sally met Hecate before, when she was a child! Percy gets some more background on the magic school from his mom and from his school counselor, and we learn that apparently the end of magic school was linked to WW1? Also, we decide that magic school is for the girlies. Percy, Annabeth, Grover, and the pets summon some ghosts. We have no clue who Peter Stuyvesant is, but we learn. Listeners, please tell us, did you know of this guy? Are we just forgetting everything from high school history class? They summon Peter, who sucked as a person, and take the ghosts back to the mansion. Things, of course, don't go to plan!

    150: They Didn't Hunt Witches, They Hunted Women (WRATH OF THE TRIPLE GODDESS Ch 25-28)

    It's been a rough week, y'all. Here is a podcast episode to hopefully bring some joy to your lives. Percy, Annabeth, and Grover get hit with beast breath, and turn into strange animal hybrids. Percy bonds with Gale and learns her backstory, which prompts Erin to do a deep dive on witch-hunting in Ancient Greece. Manasa finds a disturbing owl-human hybrid image on Google and shares it with all of us to curse our brains. Gale and Percy create a cure, and thankfully, it works and restores everyone to normal. The pets all make it back home safe, but the home is still crumbling. Percy decides it's time to finally ask Sally what she knows about Grammercy Park.
