Episode #109 – Long Distance Hippocampi
Nov 27, 2023, 08:48 PM
Prophecy Radio episode #109 tackles Chalice of the Gods chapters 15-17, in which we head to the River Elisson and meet the Man Bun of Doom! We also discuss the latest news from the Riordanverse, but it’s a pretty light week because of the holiday. At least we have some new photos to discuss thanks to the Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief tie-in edition. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13.
