Mike Schubert, host of The Newest Olympian, join to discuss the book series we've been sleeping on all along, Percy Jackson and The Olympians. 

We discuss how Mike started reading the series for the first time as an adult, the idea of genuine goodness in Percy and his friends, and what the books can still teach us after childhood. Tangents include positivity in fandom, representation of mental health and family dynamics, and why Rick Riordan is such a good guy.
