Podcasts about Polyphemus

Prophecy Radio episode #152 offers wooly thoughts alongside a discussion of Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 6, “Nobody Gets the Fleece.” There's also some news to discuss, as well as a recap of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast, which features guests Aleks Pauvnoic, Albert Kim, and the incomparable Andrew McIlroy. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13.News and Updates (00:05:44) Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 has debuted with strong numbers according to The Wrap. We can't help but mention Pluribus, as it seems everyone is watching it at the moment. Did you know there's an official Percy Jackson and the Olympians shop now? You can also get some great merch at Hot Topic! Did you catch the beautiful birthday message to Walker from his dad? There's no Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 4 renewal news, but they ARE working on it at the moment. We channel a little Positive Patty and/or Optimistic Olivia energy and talk about the chances of getting seasons 4 and 5. Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 6 discussion (00:14:52) Let's kick off the episode 6 discussion with Tyson in the water. Daniel Diemer does such a good job of getting Tyson's thoughts and feelings across while underwater. RAINBOW TO THE RESCUE. Percy has a pretty awful dream about Camp. It looks like Kronos is dropping by, but when the hood is pulled back it's someone else. Why do you think they showed Thalia in this scene? How does Percy know what she looks like? Percy wants to get a head start on their plan, but Annabeth remains calm and tells him that's not a good idea. Back on the island, Polyphemus regales Clarisse and Grover with tales of his solitary life. Shoutout to Nobody. They made Polyphemus SO MUCH SCARIER than he was in the books. We keep hearing Pan's name. Percy keeps watch while Annabeth grabs some pelts. Luke interrupts with some rainbow wiggles. Annabeth admits Luke might be right about Thalia's feelings about Zeus, but he was also wrong to think she'd be on Kronos' side. This part wasn't in the book, but it's such a great addition. Percy has a dramatic entrance. Was he worried that Annabeth might be betraying him? Was the call about recon or about checking in on Annabeth? “Think wooly thoughts.” Those sheep sounds were pretty legit. Plot twist! Polyphemus set a trap for the demigods. We get a classic Clarisse and Percy moment. Annabeth uses that big brain of hers to distract Polyphemus. Luke uses a portal to travel to the island, and Karen has some questions about the science of the magic. Shoutout to the makeup department because Annabeth's wounds looked BRUTAL. All seems lost…until Tyson returns! Did Percy understand what they said in Ancient Greek? How did Tyson get one up on Polyphemus? Luke arrives at the worst or possibly even the best time. Percy really did try to come up with a different solution than just handing over the fleece. Were we surprised Luke healed Annabeth? How do we feel about the changes from the book here? Tyson saves the day AGAIN, and Percy is so glad he's alive. And like the wish-granting fairy that he is, Tyson has a solution to their problem of no transportation. Percy gets yet another epic line to end the episode. Next time: Young Annabeth, a recovering sarcophagus, Clarisse liking her odds, and BLACKJACK!! Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast highlights (01:25:15) Aryan and Aleks are in divorce arbitration, and Andrew makes his big debut on the podcast. But first we need to talk about what is was like to play Polyphemus. This is not the first time Aleks has been a cyclops in a Percy Jackson production. Did you realize they did mostly practical effects for Polyphemus? What character inspired the “simple” version of Polyphemus? Did you know what forced perspective was? Which did you like better, the proposal or the prom pictures? The second guest on the podcast was Albert Kim, one of the series' writers. They wanted to surprise even the most diehard fans of the books. We talk about Percy's fatal flaw, and his reaction to giving up the fleece. It's no surprise the sheep were afraid of Polyphemus. Aryan finally gets his ring! Andrew McIlroy returns to talk about his experience on the show so far. It was interesting hearing how they “found” Tyson and Teen!Luke. Kronos is totally a cult leader. We get some insight into how the kids prepare for each scene, including an example of the exercise with the ball that they do to get into character. Why doesn't Andrew go to any of the functions? Where did his commitment to the craft come from? Everyone has such respect for Glynn Turman. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode #153, where we'll recap Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 7, as well as the next episode of the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast.This episode's hosts are: Karen and KristenEach 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.Follow Us: Instagram // Facebook // TumblrListen and Subscribe: Audioboom // Apple // SpotifyFeel free to leave us your questions or comments through any of these mediums!

Prophecy Radio episode 151 cruises through Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 5, "We Check into C.C.'s Spa and Resort." They also discuss all the behind-the-scenes goodies from the Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast, as well as catch you up on some Christmas-related fun. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13.No news this weekPercy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 5 discussion (00:12:30) Right away we know Percy and Annabeth are alive. That's a relief. And how convenient they find themselves in the only sanctuary in the Sea of Monsters! Hylla sighting! Is this our first Heroes of Olympus easter egg? C.C. wants to help them identify their fatal flaws so they can survive the sirens. How noble. Stavros, our little jet skiing anachronism, does not fair too well. We may not have seen Stavros' demise, but hearing it was pretty gnarly. Clarisse wakes up on the beach. Lucky lady can see the golden fleece, though, so... quest still on! But then she gets caught in Polyphemus' trap. Quest paused. I really hope they find ways to weave the consensus song into every season. It makes Kristen smile. She tells Grover that Percy and Annabeth are dead, but thanks to that empathy link, Grover is sure she's wrong. All he had was hope, but now he has Clarisse and some rope! Back to C.C.'s: Percy and Annabeth look ADORABLE. They don't agree. C.C. wants to help them find their fatal flaws with her very own Mirror of Swalflataf (if you know, you know)/li> Annabeth takes the opportunity to try and learn something about C.C. We have a super swoon moment when Percy goes full book boyfriend. Even if we are trying to temper our little shipper hearts because they are not supposed to be at the crush stage yet. Percy believes he is a danger to the quest, so he decides to stay at C.C's. Back to the island: Clarisse is trying to shimmy up a rope to escape the cave, but the sensitive, sassy Cuban Oak can only take so much. Polyphemus returns, but this time Grover forgets to lower his veil... not good. Back on C.C.'s island: Percy has a very enlightening chat with Zadie. Percy confronts C.C. to transformative results. Is that a pen cup full of souvenirs, or did C.C. just think Percy's pen would be happy there? Percy doesn't let a little thing like being a guinea pig keep him from trying to formulate a plan. Describing Ares as merciful is a dead giveaway. Whatever you say, fakeGrover. This Polyphemus is waaaaaay scarier than the book. We appreciate the consistency with representing all cyclopses the same. Annabeth has a plan. But she also knows how to freestyle like the best of them. Multivitamins to the rescue! Percy and Annabeth set sail, but only one gets the wax. The other gets roped. Aaaand just kidding. C.C. takes back her wax. Annabeth's vision is detailed, but she has a plan. ATHENA SIGHTING! It's a double cross! It was the sirens the whole time! Percy saves the day. Next time: Tyson sighting, Kronos in season 1 form, and its time to battle Polyphemus. Percy Jackson and the Olympians Official Podcast highlights (01:34:34) A bit of a surprise: This week's guest is Glynn Turman, aka, Chiron! The Andrew counter lives. Glynn is Chiron: Both run camps, both help campers learn new skills, both have lost campers. Chiron's horse half is the same horse that plays Blackjack and has shown up in the background, too. There is a Grover horn arc already plotted for five seasons. This detail has us absolutely fangirling. They're going to curl by season 5! Next guests: Zoe Neary (Producer) and Jules O'Loughlin (Director of Photography) The sirens were played by stuntwomen using windsurfing rigs. **chef's kiss** Realism at work: They gave costume department samples of the rock to match, they used real seaweed from the marina, and there was a crab wrangler on set! One guinea pig is given the high ground. And different foods give them different eyelines. So much to learn about guinea pig acting. Rosemarie Dewitt killed it as C.C. Dior and Charlie shadowed producers to learn more about that part of the filmmaking process. Getting away from the Volume stage this year. Practical sets help them to lean into the weather and natural enviroments around them. The sound department is not a fan of fidget spinners. Oops. Listener Feedback (01:54:38)We have an email!

The gang is all here on Polyphemus's island (and it's not a tropical, relaxing island vacation). This week, we're discussing Disney+'s Percy Jackson and the Olympians Episode 6 of Season 2, "Nobody Gets The Fleece." Percy's fatal flaw is out and about this episode, and we aren't complaining. We say the word "interesting" like 37 times and work on our pronunciation of Thalia. Percy and Annabeth's plan to save Grover and Clarisse doesn't go super well. Tyson reappears and steals all our hearts.

This episode may be our new holy grail of Percabeth moments. We too would burn it all down for Annabeth!!! We talk about all the deviations they made from the books, and why they may have done that. What does it mean to be human? What does it mean to be hero? This episode gets into so many of the themes we've been tracking. Sally Jackson is constantly haunting (positive) the narrative. We give Vanilla the guinea pig their flowers (#GiveVanillaAnEmmy). Also, Polyphemus is smart now? Didn't see that one coming.

Greg Alba & John Humphrey react to The Odyssey Official Trailer, breaking down the epic return of Homer's legendary myth through a modern cinematic lens. From the long journey of Odysseus to the fate of Penelope and Telemachus, this trailer teases gods, monsters, war, destiny, and survival at sea. We discuss the scale, tone, visuals, mythological accuracy, and how this adaptation appears to balance grounded human emotion with supernatural spectacle. The movie is set to showcase Iconic figures like Odysseus, Penelope, Telemachus, Athena, Poseidon, Circe, Calypso, Polyphemus, the Sirens, and the Lotus-Eaters, while teasing legendary moments such as the Trojan War aftermath, the Cyclops encounter, the siren song, the long voyage home, and the battle to reclaim Ithaca. We also dive into the cast, performances teased in the footage, the music, cinematography, and how this version compares to past adaptations and the original epic poem. This discussion explores whether The Odyssey is positioning itself as a prestige mythological epic, a grounded survival story, or a full fantasy spectacle — and how it could resonate with modern audiences.

On Prophecy Radio episode #146, Karen and Kristen revisit Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1 in all its glory, discussing their very favorite moments and any lingering questions ahead of season 2. They also delve into the latest news, including some new footage from the upcoming season. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:6:07) Do you have a Menchie's Frozen Yogurt near you? If so, make sure you stop there on December 10! The new Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 posters depict the giants, Polyphemus, and even the sirens. Did you hear about the Percy Jackson and the Olympians official podcast? Rick is the Indigo Author of the Month, which means it's the perfect time to pick up the Sea of Monsters Deluxe Collector's Edition. (Rick shows off what it looks like on his Instagram.) Illumicrate is reprinting their exclusive Percy Jackson and the Olympians set! This is your sign to pick it up if you missed out last time. Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1 revisit (00:18:44) It's time to jump into our revisit of Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1, starting with–you guessed it–episode 1! Walker is so young in these episodes! And Young Percy is masterful in those early scenes (and the later ones, too!). We're still impressed with the CGI in this show. The cabin scene is so emotional–both Walker and Virginia bring their A-Game. Honestly, this pilot is one of the best we've ever seen. Our first question after jumping into episode 2 is whether we'll see the Council of Cloven Elders again. Will we get another montage in season 2 of all the things Percy got better at?? Was Annabeth watching Percy the whole time, or was she following Clarisse instead? How big are the other symbols going to be when kids start getting claimed? Clarisse is a textbook bully, and we're so excited to see her growth in Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2. Grover is smarter than both Chiron and Mr. D, and we'll be taking no objections to that. Episode 3 is fantastic for so many reasons, but especially the growth of the trio's relationship. Percy earned a lot of Annabeth's respect when he talked about why he chose her for the quest. Grover stood up to his friends, and that's super difficult. Percy IS impertinent. Medusa was a standout in this episode–especially her speech about how the gods are the real monsters. Episode 4 begins with Young Percy in the pool and ends with current-day Percy in the river. It's good that Percy got to see that not all mythological creatures are monsters. Will we see more of the Mist in season 2? Echidna was super terrifying, actually. Episode 5 is a standout, for sure. We get Percy and Annabeth's first hug, so mark that down. But the real emotional epicenter of this episode is during the chair scene and Annabeth's speech to Hephaestus. Ares is the worst, but we still kind of love him. “Thank you for the cheeseburgers and the emotional abuse.” Yeah, they're not going to shy away from his abusive relationship with Clarisse. Oh, Leah Jeffries is a PROFESSIONAL. Will they have a callback to this episode once Aphrodite is introduced? Episode 6 brings us to the Lotus Hotel and Casino. We also meet Hermes in this episode, and it's interesting to see Annabeth's interactions with him. We talk about Clarisse a little, too, and how she differs from Annabeth but has her own strengths.. Percy misses out on his dad, unfortunately. In episode 7, we get the long-awaited mattress shop scene, even if it was pretty brief. Cerberus is super cute, and Annabeth is so smart! We don't always love flashbacks, but they work super well in this show. How do we feel about Hades' casting? The best moment from this episode might just be the diner scene when Poseidon shows up. Finally, we talk about the Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1 finale. Percy vs. Ares was awesome, especially that ichor effect. It's amazing to see Percy own his abilities and the relationship with his dad. What did we think of the look of Olympus? Lance Reddick will always be our Zeus. Poseidon totally still has the hots for Sally. We can't help but notice the lighting for the scene between Luke and Percy at the end. Grover's Searcher's license is a flower!! We're so excited for Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2. It won't be long now! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 147, where we'll recap Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2, episode 1, as well as all the latest news.

We're at the climax of the book! Neither of us have great memories, so it was fun to revisit how this book ends. Percy and friends defeat Polyphemus. Manasa has a theory about our three brains, which we both completely forgot about. Is Percy a colonizer? Is Polyphemus a colonizer? Actually, why does Polyphemus even have the fleece? Clarisse gets to have her hero moment, and we discuss how much we love her arc. Luke delivers one of many evil villain monologues, which Percy livestreams to camp. Erin gets a dolphin fact wrong.

On Prophecy Radio episode #145, Karen and Kristen discuss the brand new Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 trailer. They also discuss a few fun news items, and catch up on some personal news, too. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:15:00) Roseanne A. Brown got married! Congratulations!! Today's really big news: WE GOT A TRAILER. More on that later. The London Cast recording of The Lightning Thief: The Percy Jackson Musical is live on streaming! (You can also preorder the CD from their website if you prefer) Our favorite trio did an interview with MTV about their Percy Jackson characters and how they relate to music Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 trailer breakdown (00:20:45) First: Check out the full trailer! Walker has grown so much and it really shows in the opening shots. Prophetic dreams? Are they talking about us?!?! What happened to the three people around Grover when he gets snatched by that tentacle? Laistrygonian sighting. When it's not Luke trying to kill you... We take a pretty good look at Percy's room. Definitely reflects the inner workings of a kid with ADHD. We love this dream talk. Percy's not the only one having dreams, even if we forget that sometimes. The Stymphalian birds are incredible! Can't wait to see that whole scene in action! Grey Sisters sighting: the comedy is on point. The brief bits of Tyson we get here are very promising. We see TreeThalia being stabbed by Luke. Leah is going to absolutely destroy our emotions with her reactions to Thalia's tree being disturbed. Quick shot of Grover (no, we don't see a wedding dress) and Polyphemus with his shepherd's hook. THE POSTCARDS (is it weird that I kinda hope there's a special feature all about these?!) The side by side of Annabeth and Clarice on the ship? New besties alert?! We are desperately hoping we get to see the transformation of Thalia's bracelet into the Aegis. (Here's a link to those stills we talked about on the Percyseries Insta.) This moving rock shot has us a little stumped, but is Annabeth having her siren visions here? That smooth black and gold rock HAS to be Kronos' sarcophagus (good call, Karen!) Who is the winker? Percy falling freaked us out for a second. The CGI on these battle sequences is INSANE. This season is going to be beyond epic. Our favorite moments from the trailer Our predictions/wants/questions for Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 We are both really excited to see that siren scene play out. Here's the link to that video of the trio watching the trailer together! Enjoy! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 146, where we'll recap and review Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1, as well as all the latest news. 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.

"Whiter than cottage cheese", "bright as an unripe grape"? This is some world class woo-pitching, and Polyphemus the one-eyed wonder has high hopes that such romantic language will win fair Galatea, sea nymph extraordinaire, to his hirsute side. He may not be much to look at, monobrow and all, but the Cyclops boasts that he comes with many benefits: great musical skill, a cheez whiz packed man cave, and 1000 head of cattle. As Theocritus the famous Syracusan poet tells the tale, should we take it as farce? Or, is the song a serious philosophical inquiry into the healing nature of poetry? Join the guys this week as they take a close look at Idyll XI, an awkward, adolescent love song that the Alexandrian poet composes for that shaggy Cyclops as a backstory, before he encountered Odysseus. The insights of Brooks Otis, Erling Holtsmark, Robert Schmiel, and yes, Dronebrella, set the stage. So, cue your mixtape with Air Supply or Survivor, pray for gills, and don't miss this one!

Sailing Odyssey ambience. I've been thinking of sailing lately, no reason — maybe I'm just missing the Vineyard (check out our MVY Harbor and Steamship ambience from this summer) or maybe it's still on my mind from this week. The Mediterranean was mentioned in my Night of the Living Dead episode from last week as well — a movie that was pushed in front of us on an AV Cart... we weren't going to be finishing up with Polyphemus and heading back to sea with Odysseus. We were going to watch rural Pennsylvanians battle the undead.We're not doing either today—we're justing going to sail without fear of interdiction from the sirens, the Laestrygonians, the lotus-eaters or worse.  Let's find Eos.

On Prophecy Radio episode #139, Karen and Kristen chat about all things SDCC! There's a cast panel to discuss, a trailer to break down, and a couple of additional news items you won't want to miss either. New episodes of Prophecy Radio will air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. Let's talk about the cast panel (00:08:00) Dan Shotz gives us a list of monsters we are definitely going to see in season 2. More practical sets this season, little to no Volume stage. Daniel Diemer proves his Riordan-verse fanhood with a story about sharing the books with his family and then getting to show them the set. Dior has a fantastic grasp of Clarisse's psychology in season 2. Hopefully someday we will get to see this teaser clip (and see a glimpse of Grover in the wedding dress, maybe?)! They built the entire set for the chariot race, which just seems insanely impressive to us. We get to hear a lot about on-set antics, as well as some post-shooting shenanigans involving Aryan, the actor playing Polyphemus, and Walker Scobell. A video from Rick Riordan himself reveals the two biggest casting announcements for season 3: Meet Nico and Bianca DeAngelo! The trailer discussion (00:36:19) The first four characters we see are the trio and Luke the blade-poisoner... that feels significant. The undead/ghost soldiers with Clarisse look like they may come from more than one war era. Do you think casual viewers may believe that the black cloaked figure is Tantalus? Percy and Clarisse are fighting again. Are they dressing Luke in light colors for a reason? This archer we see: Silena Beauregard? Or A Hunter of Artemis? We think there is a lot this Alison Simms character can bring to the show. A quick appearance from the Oracle. Someone has a trident and saves Percy from being killed by Luke. Meet Tyson the cyclops! The Gray Sisters are going to be a really fun moment early this season. The rest of the news (01:03:04) We talk for quite a bit about the Nico and Bianca casting. A Walker Scobell story about his chemistry read has us REALLY excited for Nico. Need a recap of season 1 without watching all the episodes? This EW recap video has a lot of visual reminders of all the biggest moments, characters, and more in season 1. Courtney B. Vance steps into play Zeus and knocks his tribute to Lance Reddick out of the park. Courtney's Zeus gets a few pats on the back from the show's stars. Fun fact: The actress playing Thalia played Lance Reddick's child in a Netflix series. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 140, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 33 and 34 (we promise we will this time), as well as get you up to date on whatever Percy Jackson news might pop up.

For decades, writers and filmmakers have imagined worlds where characters can do things like watch a double sunset (on Tatooine, of course), or stand among the sand dunes of Arrakis, or gaze at the gas-giant planet Polyphemus from the moon Pandora. But even as works like Star Wars, Dune, and Avatar have enticed us with their fictional renditions of planets beyond our reach, astronomers have slowly begun to compile a set of scientific truths about the actual exoplanets. In this episode, Jacke talks to author Keith Cooper (Amazing Worlds of Science Fiction and Science Fact) about the realities beyond imaginary planets. PLUS Jacke takes a look at two AI-related pieces of news: the recovery of writing long thought to be lost on a scroll charred by Vesuvian ash, and a summer reading list that surprised everyone - including the authors who made the list for reasons they were not expecting.

Neptune is the Roman name for the Greek god of the seas and of earthquakes. Poseidon, in Greek mythology, is the father of Polyphemus, the tyrannical, man-eating cyclopes of Homer's Odyssey. Because the Odysseus blinded Polyphemus, it was Poseidon and his wrath which ultimately made Odysseus' trip home a little more circuitous than was to the Big O's liking. Thankfully, Poseidon and his offspring exist only in the long-gone minds and imaginations of Homer and the Greco-Roman world. But there is a true King of king and Lord of lords, which even the wind, wave, continental plates and distant planets obey. Who is this King of Glory? How do the heavens declare His glory? And what might the enigmas and mysteries of our solar system's most distant planet tell us about Him? Come and see!

Welcome to Season 3 of Myths & Muses! This season, we're focusing on monsters -- and, for better or worse, we've had some help in targeting which monsters to focus on from... Medusa. Because she's invited a bunch of them to our camps for our "Misunderstood Monsters" theme. You can see her first letter to us and the "tour poster" for the monsters on the World of Mythik theory board. We're starting with Polyphemus, the one-eyed monster best known for getting blinded by Odysseus. Polyphemus, the one-eyed giant best known for the role he plays in the story of the Greek hero Odysseus. And because we're not sure we quite trust Medusa to have shown us her whole hand, we'll talk about some other giants from across the world, too! Visit the World of Mythik website to learn more and to contribute your theories to our board! All stories told on Myths & Muses are original family-friendly adaptations of ancient myths and legends. Stories from ancient mythology can also sometimes deal with complicated topics for young listeners — to the mortal parents and caretakers reading this, we encourage listening along with your young demigods to help them navigate those topics as they explore these epic tales.

Prophecy Radio episode #127 finds Karen and Kristen back to discuss the next two chapters of Percy Jackson and the Chalice of the Gods. We catch up on the board games we've played and loved recently (and tell a traumatic board game memory) before discussing the latest news from Rick Riordan and Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Finally, we discuss chapters 24 and 25 of Chalice of the Gods. New episodes of Prophecy Radio will air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:09:37) We decide not to worry about the D23 trailer since it has so little new footage for Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2. We are ready and waiting for a real Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 trailer, though. We do have some minor casting announcements to talk about. You can take a look at all the info on the minor casting right here. Timothy Simons as Tantalus, who keeps an eye on activities in Chiron's absence. Kevin Chacon has been recast as Chris Rodriguez We take issue with the article calling him a villain, though. Rosemarie DeWitt will be our C.C. (AKA Circe) Who is not to be confused with Calypso or any other water-related C-named goddesses Aleks Paunovic will be our Polyphemus, although we're not sure to what degree. If they had only cast him for his voice, they would have mentioned that in the announcement, right? Last, but certainly not least, we have our new non-book character played by Beatrice Kitsos … or is she?! Chalice of the Gods discussion (00:29:00) Chapter 24 starts with Percy waking up from a good old regular dream where all the gods were pregnant. And of course it was Annabeth sneaking in his window that woke him. She has a lot to tell him about what she learned about concetrated nectar from Juniper. Is this book influencing the show? Or is the show influencing this book? Percy gave good advice to Grover. Sally would not have a problem with Annabeth in Percy's room. She'd probably just make tea. Trusting moms are some of the best parts of supernatural-being-living-in-a-human-world stories. Annabeth Chase: Scheduler Extraordinaire! We share our favorite lines and moments. Time for chapter 25! And its a big one. Doughnuts to start the day, then time to plug noses and get to work. The menthol to koala/eucalyptus thing took a minute to process. Our trio gets split up by the drops of nectar. Of course Percy is in trouble the minute he's off on his own. Time to meet Gary! He has a very specific look, and its not a flattering one. The god of old age stole the chalice that stops people from getting old. It goes against the natural order of things. Since Percy is the only human to turn down immortality, Geras wanted to give him a chance to understand why this god would steal from Ganymede. Karen reminds us of that reference last week that makes a lot more sense now that we're in the know. Gary is not happy with Percy's reaction and is totally ready to turn him to gravedust. Percy wants to see if there's a deal to be struck. The challenge Geras throws down is not exactly what you would expect… Time to close things out with more favorite lines and favorite moments! Feedback No feedback this week, but we look forward to hearing all your board game recs for next week's episode! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 128, where we'll discuss the latest Percy Jackson news, along with Chalice of the Gods chapters 26 & 27.

This week we look at a very special giant silkmoth that comes from North America (Luna moths). The species is incredibly iconic, and there are many different meanings for it across various cultures. The best part is you can also raise them relatively easily as a pet!    Patreon -> https://www.patreon.com/user?u=46499107 IG: https://www.instagram.com/insects4fun/ FB: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100085443614825 Email: Insectsfordummies@gmail.com     Music provided by Lofi Girl with featured artist: Brillion.    Transcription:    Welcome back to episode 60 of Insects for fun! I wonder what we should do for episode 100… I've also been thinking of adding other arthropods into the mix. What do y'all think? Let me know in the comments section either on IG, FB or in your podcast player. Also when this episode is released I'll be on a flight back to Japan from the states, so I'm currently writing this weeks in advance. Recently we have had some moon viewing stuff going on in Japan, and I figure what better time than to talk about one of my favorite moths, the Luna moth.    Lunas are in the giant silkmoth family Saturniidae and the genus is Actias. There are actually quite a few species of moon moths in this genus, but not all of them are green like the well known luna. Fortunately in Japan the two different species we have are quite similar to the luna, and I'll be trying my hand at raising one of them next summer.    Actias luna have large and gorgeous pastel green wings with big fluffy white bodies, and one eye mark per wing. The wingspan can reach 5 inches across and also have long tails which only further adds to their celestial appearance. The name Luna is actually in reference to the roman moon goddess Luna, but this was not always their name! The initial name for these was actually plumata caudata which translates to feather tail, and these moths were the first American giant silk moths to be documented in literature. The name was later changed by Linnaeus in 1758. There are actually quite a few giant silk moths with mythological names like Polyphemus, Prometheus and Atlas for example, but the majority of them are brown or a variation of it. The Luna moth can only be found in North America, and not even the entire continent either. These moths chose a side and thankfully for me it was the east! You can find lunas from Canada down to Florida but they stay east of the great plains, and in Canada they're found from southern Saskatchewan to Nova Scotia. I'll never forget the first time I saw one, and thankfully finding them doesn't seem to be all that difficult if you know where to go.    Luna moths are quite partial to forested areas but what kind of plants they eat is dependent on their geographical location. For example the caterpillars we have in Vermont love eating Birch, but I've also been successful at raising them on black walnut as well. Other common hosts include Butternut, Sumac, Sweetgum in the south, Alder, Beech, wild cherry and even persimmon. The time of year to find adult moths also varies heavily by location as well and this is because warmer weather allows them to have multiple breeding seasons unlike the northern populations. In Northern Vermont we have one generation a year and our Lunas start coming out of their cocoons in late May. In the south it's not uncommon to have 2 or three generations in a year depending on the state. Massachusetts for example is right under VT but can have a partial 2nd generation.    The caterpillars are also an incredible green, and they can get pretty big. The 5th and last molt reaches a size up to 3inches or 7.5 cm and has red dots sprinkled over its back. What's unique to these compared to other giant silkmoths is that the entire caterpillar actually turns red right before it begins making a cocoon. At least that's been my experience but I've also read that some of them turn brown or orange as well. But it's not the color or the ability to change colors that makes Luna moths interesting or the moths in the genus Actias. It's actually the tails on their wings that have attracted a lot of attention. Some species in the genus actias have tails on their wings that reach 12cm in length, and that's just the tail section! I can't tell you these are the only moths with long tails on their wings but I can definitely say they are one of a handful, and the reason they have these tails is to protect them from bat attacks! Bat's rely on echolocation to find their prey, and it's one of the reasons why they fly in close quarters to people fishing in the evening. The sounds bouncing off the water from lures being whipped draws them in which can be intimidating I gotta say, and the tails on moon moths disrupt the air waves in a way that confuses bats into missing the body of the moths entirely. In fact studies found that Brown bats are near 50% more successful at hunting lunas when their tails are missing. The tails on these moths are never straight either. At the very base of these tails the wing has a slight curve which catches air in a way that changes the source location of their sounds. For example a moth with no tails is essentially a flying target because the sound originates from the body, but a moth with the tails has its sound point from further below the main body.    Some people had previously questioned whether the tails were used for attracting a mate but uh ima be real with you. These moths could not care less about what their partner looks like. Some of them are so blind that they try to mate with anything. And that brings me to my second point. The female luna moths like all saturniidae release a pheromone to lure males, and half the time aren't even looking in the direction of where males are flying in from. The males have to initiate everything after the female starts calling, so whether or not she lays fertile eggs is dependent on the health or age of the male as well as how closely related they are. Generally speaking the moths have different times of day when they start flying based on gender which is a form of control against inbreeding. Some males won't even recognize their siblings' pheromones.    Now because luna moths are relatively famous as far as insects go, there are cultural and spiritual meanings tied to the moth. One super simple one is transformation and rebirth but that's like a copout meaning given to any insect with relevance that has multiple life stages so we aren't gonna focus on that. The other meanings though have more to do specifically with the luna moth like inner guidance and intuition. I don't know much about chakras but I guess a soft green color is supposed to represent the heart chakra and is connected to our ability to connect to our inner wisdom, and instincts. The other meaning which I really like connected to these moths is divine femininity. Its gentle temperament and grace links to compassion and intuition often associated with a woman's instincts.    In some native american folklore the luna moth is associated with rebirth and spiritual guidance. Similarly in celtic mythology the luna moth is associated with the fae, and is seen as a symbol of rebirth and magic. It really does seem that throughout the world and history these moths have held a special place in the eye of those who see it.  If you would like to raise luna moths it is totally possible to get eggs or cocoons. Especially if you live in the United States, but people can order eggs and cocoons from the US in other countries as well. You just have to be mindful of the host plants you have around. If you simply google luna moth eggs or cocoons for sale you find many different people willing to sell and ship you these insects. They're also sometimes used in elementary schools as a fun classroom pet to showcase metamorphosis. If you want the cocoons to stay dormant during the winter it's important that you make sure the insects came from natural conditions. The amount of light they received as a caterpillar dictates whether or not they are going to diapause or sleep during the colder months, and it's also important that you leave the cocoons outside. They need to stay synced to the natural temperatures and humidity of their environment. Some people put them in the fridge but if you do this the container needs to be air tight because they will 100% dry out and die otherwise. They don't require much oxygen at all while they are in this state of sleep, but if you're concerned you can open the container and give them a slight misting before putting them back in the fridge. Too much water and they will suffocate or get moldy. Also if you live in a colder climate I definitely recommend finding a vendor who lives in a similar place. You don't want souther cocoons coming out early on you.    This concludes today's episode on Luna moths!

Many of us grew up reading the myths and legends from Ancient Greece and Rome. We followed Herakles as he succeeded at one impossible task after another; we cringed when Orpheus turned round at the last moment so that Eurydice fled back into the underworld; we grinned when Odysseus outsmarted the cyclops, Polyphemus.

Perhaps you remember reading The Odyssey in high school or college (or possibly you picked upEmily Wilson's fabulous new translation at the Painted Porch). Even if you haven't, you're probably familiar with the cyclops scene. Odysseus and his men find themselves trapped in a cave with Polyphemus, the deranged, man-eating, sheep herding, one-eyed beast. Odysseus hatches an ingenious escape plan: they wait for the cyclops to fall asleep and then stab him in the eye with a sharpened log. Enraged and blinded, Polyphemus staggers to remove the stone he had rolled in front of the entrance of the cave, which frees Odysseus and his men.✉️ Want Stoic wisdom delivered to your inbox daily?

Derek Olson of Megalithic Marvels takes you on an audible journey back in time in search of the legendary Cyclops. Was Cyclops a literal one-eyed ancient hybrid giant or a symbol of the lost knowledge the megalithic builders once possessed in ages past? Greek writers like Pausanias mention that the megalithic walls of Europe were erected by a one-eyed giant race who worked in the god's forges under Mount Etna near Sicily. This legend is still preserved today with a term archaeologists use to describe this architecture: cyclopean, from the word cyclops. Cyclopean construction consists of massive polygonal blocks that interlock together without mortar, designed to be earth quake proof. In Greek mythology, the Cyclopes were the giant one eyed sons of the gods & considered the master masons of the golden age. Homer's “Odyssey” features the cyclops Polyphemus who is described as “godlike & towering over all the Cyclops' clans in power”. Polyphemus was the offspring of Poseidon & a woman named Thoosa, thus making him a demi-god. This mirrors the Gen 6:4 account of the Watchers breeding with earth women to produce the giant Nephilim.

In Greek literature and mythology, the one-eyed giant known as the Cyclops is associated with a variety of deeds and histories. In Homer's The Odyssey, the Cyclopes were cannibals who lived an uncivilised life in Sicily, and in another story, Odysseus escapes from his death by blinding the Cyclops Polyphemus.In Hesiod, the cyclopes Arges, Brontes and Steropes were the three sons of Gaea and Uranus, and they created the Thunderbolts of Zeus. Later authors claimed that they were workmen of Hephaestus who were killed by Apollo for making the lightning bolt that hit his son Asclepius. The walls of ancient cities, such as those in Tiryns, were said to have been built by the Cyclopes. In modern archaeology, the term cyclopean is used to describe the construction of walls that are not square. In the fifth-century BC play by Euripides, a group of satyrs provides comic relief as Odysseus and Polyphemus encounter each other. Virgil also associates the Homeric and Hesiodic Cyclopes with the Aeolian Islands and Sicily.Read more at https://mythlok.com/cyclops/

This episode continues to explore the extraordinary painting decorations of Rome's seminal Renaissance suburban villa. From the zodiacal images that represent the patron's horoscope, to Sebastiano del Piombo's "Polyphemus," to one of Raphael's most beautiful paintings known as "The Galatea', and, finally, to the virtual-reality-like Hall of Perspectives, the extensive fresco decoration of the villa makes it one of the most impressive decorative complexes in the world.

In this episode the guys make their way through the rest of Book 3 where we find more regressive pulls back to the old Troy as well as Homeric tags and Odyssean cameos. At the first stop Aeneas is stunned to find a remarried Andromache still alive in Epirus, but also still obsessed with the past and her dear departed Hector. And even more things are off—she seems to be living in a low-rent, Euro Disney, knock-off “Tiny Troy” with a mini Simois, scant Scaean gates, and paltry Pergamum. It's like we've entered Vergil's version of the Upside-Down or some other referent to a show Dave hasn't seen. Aeneas hightails it out of this creepy place and heads for (at last!) Italy, the land of murses and selfie-sticks. Now there's some solid Homeric “fan service”—crowd pleasing walk-ons by Scylla, Polyphemus, Achaemenides, and Bill Murray. Oh, and Aeneas' dad dies. Blink and you'll miss it.
