On Prophecy Radio episode #136, Karen and Kristen continue their discussion of The Red Pyramid with chapters 27 and 28! They also talk about their new obsession with Lorcana and some small updates with Percy Jackson and the Olympians on Disney+. New episodes of Prophecy Radio will air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:05:42) We take a few minutes to talk about how much we love Lorcana. Did you see the new Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 poster? We're pretty sure this is Charybdis. We love the vibe and think it meshes very well with what we've seen in season 1. Liam has been putting in the work at Screenrant, giving us some good stuff to talk about while we wait for more season 2 information! Aryan talks about his experience filming season 2. We're super excited to see Grover's growth this year! We also learn when Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 3 starts filming. What can we expect from Comic-Con this year? The Red Pyramid discussion (00:13:48) This week's chapters felt like they had a little more forward motion. Let's kick this off with our Red Pyramid chapter 27 discussion! We really love being in Sadie's POV! Which of the Kane siblings do you relate to most? YOU MUSTN'T READ FROM THE BOOK! Once again we are convinced this book would look so amazing on screen. We discuss how “conflicting stories can be equally true” and how difficult that is to accept. Sadie kind of doesn't have a choice about accepting what's going on around her. Why does Sadie feel guilty about Isis' role in Set's downfall but is also adamant that she's a totally separate person!? We talk about demons in Egyptian mythology. What do we think of Shezmu?? Why did Carter run for the Book of the Dead? Wait, HOW do they make the wine of the dead?? Does Shezmu being the Lord of the Perfume actually make sense?? What ARE secret names, exactly? There are SO many comparisons between Egyptian and Greek mythology. It's time for our favorite lines and favorite moments! And now we're going to move onto Red Pyramid chapter 28. Toilet humor + the apocalypse = Rick Riordan's signature style Turns out a lake of fire smells about as bad as you'd think. We were SO HAPPY to see Iskandar again. Was Iskandar's heart in the right place when he banned the hosting of gods? It's so nice when an adult can admit they're wrong!! Did Sadie and Carter's parents know what they were doing when they got married and had kids? Was this the Ma'at making sure the universe remained balanced? Were you surprised that Sadie formally forgave Iskandar? Why was this section in the Underworld so focused on Sadie? Is nobody worried about how they're going to get back from the island in the middle of the lake of fire!? Carter is definitely a finger guns type of guy. Why are dogs so often connected to death and the Underworld? The dog is definitely Anubis and Sadie is definitely into him. And so are we. Baboon is a very efficient language. The fact that Anubis and Sadie are into each other is…complicated. Is there anyone who would turn down a hippodoodle!? Will Carter be angry that Sadie keeps leaving him behind? Anubis whips out the toilet paper to make a bench. He also kind of puts his foot in his mouth when he mentions her mother. The feather of truth is kind of intense and it is sure to lead to some interesting situations. There's a reason Anubis is such a sad boy and it's…yikes. He's a lot like Hades, and Sadie says the ONE thing that could get him to hand over the feather. Would Sadie choose her father or the world? What are our favorite lines and favorite moments?? Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 137, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 29 and 30, as well as get you up to date on whatever Percy Jackson news might pop up. 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.

Next Level Soul with Alex Ferrari: A Spirituality & Personal Growth Podcast
Geoffrey Drumm discusses his theories on the Great Pyramid of Giza and other ancient structures, suggesting they were chemical reactors rather than electricity generators. He proposes that the pyramids harnessed lightning to produce chemicals like sulfuric and hydrochloric acids, which were used for mining and agriculture. Drumm's research includes chemical analyses from sites like the Red Pyramid and the Giza Plateau, showing evidence of fulgurites and metal oxide staining. He also connects these structures to natural electric currents and their alignment with electromagnetic energy fields, suggesting a broader application of ancient physics and chemistry across various civilizations. Geoffrey Drumm discusses the construction of the Great Pyramid, highlighting the irregular core masonry contrasting with the precise exterior casing stones. He explains the use of ancient machines like the Hierapolis saw and arsenical bronze saw blades, powered by water wheels, for stone cutting. Drumm hypothesizes that the step pyramid at Saqqara was used for methane fermentation, while the Red Pyramid converted methane into ammonia. He also suggests the Bent Pyramid produced nitric acid. Drumm's research includes chemical analysis of pyramid structures, linking ancient techniques to modern chemical processes, and he invites others to join his tours in Egypt to explore these theories further.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/next-level-soul-podcast-with-alex-ferrari--4858435/support.
On Prophecy Radio episode #135, Karen and Kristen keep chugging right along with The Red Pyramid by discussing chapters 25 and 26! They also talk about Graci Kim's new release, Dreamslinger and check in on April's spotlight on independent bookstores. New episodes of Prophecy Radio will air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:04:59) Graci Kim's Dreamslinger is out now! Independent Bookstore day was fun. Kristen got a chance to check out a new store near her. We learn about an independent bookstore we want to visit in the UK someday. Columbus Book Festival has Roseanne A. Brown this year! Any upcoming book events near you? Let us know! Rick's Bluesky account continues to delight. Deep cut deities are a fabulous way to learn more about Greek mythology. The Red Pyramid discussion (00:19:13) Diving in to The Red Pyramid chapter 25 Back in Carter's POV! First we address Carter's thoughts on his being forced to take lizard-shape. Then back to the plot… and Thoth. Giant pyramid arena shows that ancient cultures show up in modern cities and countries. Graceland was absolutely a test for both Sadie and Carter. Is that glow that the building gave off after Thoth tossed the ankh around the statue's neck important?! Thoth doesn't help them understand the painting, but the magic book he has a little guidance for. There is an incantation that will allow them to banish Set to the Duat where he will be contained for centuries. They will need to learn Set's secret name and a Feather of Truth from the Land of Anubis. Khufu is gonna play guide. A wild riverboat appears! Favorite lines and favorite scenes! And now chapter 26 The Egyptian Queen has eyes painted that are moving, blinking, and looking for trouble. We discuss if that has something to do with mastheads on other ships. Bast is back! She introduces us to Captain Bloostained Blade, complete with human body and a double-bladed battle ax for a head. And the red specks on the edge of the blade are concerning… A boat you can summon once a year when you need it? Sign me up. Giving BSB their desination feels like telling a genie a wish. The last time Bast was on this boat, she was with Julius, and the kids' mother had just died. Cats and serpents are mortal enemies, which explains Bast and Apophis. The Ma'at doesn't like it when you insult order. That way lies chaos. Carter goes to bed and his ba immediately takes off. His ba gets to watch a crazy plane situation that Zia & Dejardins handle very skillfully. And a snow storm in Brooklyn. And finally a memory of what exactly Set did to Osiris, and what it means for Julius. Sadie wakes Carter. They have arrived at the First Cataract, aka The Land of the Dead. Favorite lines and favorite scenes! Feedback (01:12:46) A huge thanks to David Ludwig for his lobster roll advice! Kristen is excited to look for both hot and cold preparations while she is in Maine. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 136, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 27 and 28, as well as get you up to date on whatever Percy Jackson news might pop up.

We MADE IT to the jam-packed final two chapters of Red Pyramid. We're getting #ThePowerofSiblingship, we're getting teen angst, we're getting teen/immortal (?) teen flirting, we're getting does death really exist or is everything the law of conservation?

On Prophecy Radio episode #134, Karen and Kristen return to The Red Pyramid with their discussion of chapters 23 and 24! They also talk about Rick Riordan's love of high-quality boxes, as well as some minor Percy Jackson and the Olympians news. New episodes of Prophecy Radio will air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:07:24) Independent Bookstore Day is on April 26–go support your local shop if you can!! Did you catch Rick Riordan unboxing his Emmys? The Dad vibes are strong with this video! Jay Duplass will not return as Hades in Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2–but all is not lost. We love how much his kids love Percy Jackson, which means the likelihood of him coming back for Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 3 is pretty high. We can't remember if we discussed the Gray Sisters casting from D23 2024, but we're doing it now! Where do we know Sandra Bernhard, Kristen Schaal, and Margaret Cho from? The Red Pyramid discussion (00:19:45) Let's start with The Red Pyramid chapter 23. Sadie is human again! We find out how she did it. Nobody woke Carter for lunch, but that's the least of his worries right now. Bast thinks Set might not be the one at the top of the food chain here, and that's definitely cause for concern. It's time to head to Memphis–and this time they're not “borrowing” a car, though Bast still requires a convertible. There's a lot of atmospheric description to this book, and we're all for it. Baboons playing basketball is probably a good indication that a god is nearby. Carter is NOT great at basketball, but we find out why it's so important to him. We love how hard Sadie is working to be kind to him about this. Finally, we get to meet Toth, the god of wisdom, as well as all of his ibis receptionists. Is it weird that the Greeks likened him to Hermes? Ah, yes, the importance of astrology and leechcraft. The way Thoth's powers are portrayed was super interesting and makes you wonder how powerful he is. We get some important backstory about the relationship between Horus, Isis, Set, and Thoth. Thoth seems to be a bit of a contradiction–highly intelligent and yet not very observant. Knowing a creature's actual name has such power, and we love this concept. How can Sadie hold a goddess at bay if she was also having trouble with her sense of self enough to struggle coming out of her kite form? Did we all feel on a spiritual level how much Thoth didn't want to read his old work, or was that just us? Was this chapter too long and too full of information to really comprehend everything? Time for our favorite lines and favorite moments! Now it's time to head to Graceland in The Red Pyramid chapter 24. Was Elvis a magician? All signs point to yes. Seriously, though, music really is magical. It must be so weird to be at Graceland with no tourists. STOP DESTROYING NATIONAL MONUMENTS. Karen really wants to know what type of lizard Carter was turned into. Sadie is SO resourceful, and we loved seeing how she defeated the magicians. This time, we DO know what kind of reptile is on the page–and it's a big one! How did Sadie turn Carter back into a person? Was this just a test from Thoth? At least they fixed up Graceland before they left. Could the cat of Ra actually be Bast?? How does she feel about battling Apophis again? Favorite lines and favorite scenes! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 135, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapters 25 and 26, as well as get you up to date on whatever Percy Jackson news might be out there.

As the student questions series continues, I'm talking through ideas for conversation inspired from a text we use in Core Theology class at Concordia University-Irvine–Called to Believe by Steven Mueller. In this episode we continue working through chapter 7 of the book, which discusses sin. Some discussion prompts related to this passage can include: The human ego since Adam is determined to claim autonomy and control, and attempt to control other things inorganically. Consider that corruption of Adam that corrupts us, and how we see it in the world around us. Contrast that with how God works, and the SELF-control that Jesus showed. From images of God, to images of man's invention: consider God's Green Arc versus the Red Pyramid world of human invention. Specifically, think about God's wealth, as opposed to human wealth. Give thought to the prevalence and nature of sexual activity today. Why is the divorce rate so high? Are you a better God than God? What was the nature of the first sin?

The Target special edition of The Court of the Dead is available now for pre-order. The Red Pyramid refresher course (00:36:01) Sadie (12) and Carter Kane (14) are siblings, but had to grow up apart. Their father, Julius, is allowed to bring Carter to visit Sadie for two days once a year. When they visit this time, some serious craziness ensues. The British Museum gets rocked by Julius, stirring up all kinds of Egyptian god-related chaos. Uncle Amos gets the kids safe as best he can, but it doesn't last long! The Kane family traces back to two very powerful royal lines. Demon Days start soon, and that is not some sale at Spirit Halloween. Sadie's cat, Muffin, is keeping a secret. If at first the House of Life isn't safe, why not try a different location. Iskandar and Desjardins are not created equal. Sadie and Carter learn a lot about their abilities while in the first Nome, even if they do get run out of there by a crazy leader who wants to kill them. Sadie has an audience with Nut, the sky goddess, who sends her to Tennessee. The Set animal is a scary dude, but Carter finds a loophole that should hold him. Carter sees a vision of what Set may be up to, but it turns out Set was watching right back.

On Prophecy Radio episode #132, Karen and Kristen discuss the final two chapters of Percy Jackson and the Chalice of the Gods! They also talk about the brand new Nico di Angelo novel, The Court of the Dead. New episodes of Prophecy Radio will air every other week. All discussions are PG-13. News and Updates (00:06:47) Karen's officiating a wedding, which means you get this episode early! Leah won the NAACP Image Award for Outstanding Performance by a Youth (for Percy Jackson)! A Touch of Blood by Sajni Patel is out now. The Court of the Dead: A Nico di Angelo Adventure releases in the US and the UK on September 25, 2023. We go through the synopsis and it sounds fantastic. Khadijah Khatib once again did the cover, and we're obsessed with it! We look at the cover pretty closely and see if we can find any clues about the story. The Cosmopolitan interview with Rick and Mark about the new book is a lot of fun. We love that this was Mark's idea and that they keep describing the book as “bonkers.” Will we see Bob and Small Bob again? Could there be a third Nico di Angelo book?? There IS a new character we can expect in Book 2. We also love the three words each of them use to describe this book. Check out Rick's blog for a few more details. We go through all the special editions that Read Riordan announced on their Instagram. Are you planning on getting any of the special editions? Would you spring for more than one? Chalice of the Gods discussion (00:33:03) We kick off our discussion with Chalice of the Gods chapter 34. “Delete, Delete” is the best running joke. Did you remember when the spaghetti situation took place? Is Paul basically Rick? The art of the one-star review is something to be revered. Is Sally's one-star review really a review that Rick got? We're so interested in Sally's book! What genre is it?? Callie once again shows up to share her opinions. The scene where Percy has to write his letter is SO FANTASTIC. We go looking for the recommendation letter we thought we remembered being in one of the special editions and get a surprise. As always, we get into our favorite lines and favorite scenes. Lastly, we jump into chapter 35, “Pretty Much the Best Good-Night Kiss Ever.” Percy gets Annabeth's special smile! Annabeth is very chill about giving out her autograph. It's so interesting that we learned something new about the cap. Annabeth is speechless over the fact that Athena has maybe, sort of, kind of accepted Percy as her boyfriend? We love visions of Percabeth's future! Easy-queasy has a lot of potential. The “I love you” felt significant, but it's not the first time they said it, right? The goodnight kiss through the Iris Message was SO CUTE. Favorite lines and favorite scenes! Feedback (00:00:00) There is no feedback this week! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 133, where we'll review what we've already discussed in The Red Pyramid before we pick it back up again.

As the student questions series continues, I'm talking through ideas inspired from a text we use in Core Theology class at Concordia University-Irvine–Called to Believe by Steven Mueller. In this episode we consider how to have a conversation based on the third chapter on Law and Gospel. Here are some questions for discussion: Why can't we import the kingdom of God into the world of human invention? What happens when we put the Gospel into our lives such as we are, in a Red Pyramid world? How does Law and Gospel work? Why does it fail in a Red Pyramid world? What should our perspective be when we read the Law? Is the news good if it still depends on me? What is essential in understanding the Gospel? What day is the Sabbath? In this episode I mention worldviews. You can learn more about these by listening here.
Prophecy Radio episode #124 sees Karen and Kristen returning after an accidental seven-month hiatus. That wasn't supposed happen, but it did, so we discuss how and why and what's been going on with us. (Shout-out to all the people who checked in on us—thank you!). We also talk about our future plans for the podcast and what you can expect from us going forward. As of right now, new episodes of Prophecy Radio will air every other week, and we'll still keep our discussions PG-13. Where the hell have you been, loca? (00:02:16) Yeah, that wasn't supposed to happen, and we apologize to everyone we ghosted. Kristen has a MAJOR life update to share with you all. Karen's been struggling with her mental health this year (but she's actively working on it!). Burnout is REAL. It's important to take care of yourself. We're kind of done with the hustle, to be honest. This all sounds bad, but it's actually not. We're choosing a healthier alternative for ourselves, and we hope you'll come along for the ride. Road Map of the Future (00:13:14) First and foremost, we want this podcast to be FUN and to be a safe space for people in these troubling times. We also really want to finish what we started with the books we were discussing. We'll be putting out a new episode every two weeks, and they'll be about an hour long. We'll still discuss the news, but it'll only be from official sources. If you're looking for more up-to-date information, there are a lot of other incredible podcasts out there! We'll always be here for the Elder Percy Jackson fans. Right now, we're focusing on Instagram for our socials (and our emails will always be open). We plan on finishing both Chalice of the Gods and The Red Pyramid before reassessing our next moves. We still want to cover Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 2 when it comes out. Did you miss us? Are we slaying? Do we still have the rizz? Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 125, where we'll discuss the big news we missed while we were away, along with Chalice of the Gods chapter 21. This episode's hosts are: Karen and Kristen Each episode, Prophecy Radio‘s hosts will discuss the major 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.

This episode focuses on different prompts I introduce in my classes regarding worldview, including talking about where to start conversations and how to find common ground, as well as when to step back. I refer to the Red Pyramid and Green Arc worldviews in this episode. Here are the links a visual of each model. You can also learn more about these models by listening here.

In this episode, a student asks questions related to prayer. He struggles with prayer, and feels like he's just going through the motions. He grapples with others talking about a "personal relationship" with Jesus, and wonders what that means. We work through various aspects of his question. Included in this episode are references to: The Exegete's Prayer (Psalm 119:33-40) The Lord's Prayer as a template (see John 17) Red Pyramid and Green Arc perspectives. You can listen more here, and read here.
As we continue to work through questions on baptism, today's are: Can you lose the regenerate soul as you "mature", or if your heart becomes hard? What is instruction given before adult baptism? As we discuss these, I talk about the Red Pyramid worldview and a Green Arc worldview. Below are visuals that I reference in the episode.
A student asks about something I talk about in class a lot: different worldviews. Why is it problematic when we have only a one-dimensional worldview? Why does each person have conflicting thoughts? How can our worldview help seemingly contradictory Bible verses make sense? I refer to the Red Pyramid and Green Arc worldviews in this episode. Here are the links to have a visual of each model.
Percy Jackson but make it Egyptian. This week the girls dive into The Kane Chronicles and the world of Egyptian Mythology. Follow LTP on Social Media
Did God set us up to fail in the way He created us? In this episode, different worldviews are mentioned. You can find out more info about the Red Pyramid worldview here, and the Green Arc worldview here.
Prophecy Radio episode #100 celebrates our huge milestone by looking back on our favorite episodes, guest stars, book discussions, and more. We also break down what Percy, Annabeth, and Grover were doing at the end of Heroes of Olympus in anticipation of the next Percy Jackson book. As always, we also discuss all the latest Rick Riordan news, including the chapter titles for Chalice of the Gods. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:01:07) Serwa Boateng's Guide to Witchcraft and Mayhem is now out in the world, and you can read an excerpt on Read Riordan. Rainbow Crate gives us an update on the second batch of The Sun and the Star books being shipped out. Becky gives us a little update on the Kane Chronicles contract amid the strikes. Did you see the Indonesian cover for Chalice of the Gods? Yes, Jesse Bernstein is returning to voice Percy Jackson in Chalice of the Gods. Did you catch Rick's video about CotG? Have you read the FIRST THREE CHAPTERS OF CHALICE OF THE GODS? We discuss the chapter titles in detail and speculate on the plot for the book. Celebrating 100 episodes of Prophecy Radio (00:30:02) We discuss our favorite episodes of the podcast, particularly over the course of the last 50 episodes. What fun facts have we learned in our nearly two years as a podcast? It's so hard to pick favorite guest stars, but there are a few authors who really stick out in our minds. It's also difficult to pick a favorite Rick Riordan Presents book discussion, but we both had similar answers. What were some of our most surprising moments on the podcast? There's SO much to look forward to in our future. Of course, we can't wait for Chalice of the Gods. We also can't wait to be able to talk about the show, but for now, we're staying #WGASTRONG. Leaving on such a cliffhanger, we can't wait to get back to The Red Pyramid. There are also a couple of Rick Riordan Presents books that we're really looking forward to coming up soon! Thank you for listening and celebrating with us! Chalice of the Gods character catch-up (01:02:49) Chalice of the Gods takes place after the Heroes of Olympus and before Trials of Apollo. Percy Jackson went through A LOT in Heroes of Olympus, like being switched with Jason, losing his Curse of Achilles, and falling into Tartarus. Speaking of Tartarus, there's a part about him disintegrating, and we're wondering if that could be related to one of the CotG chapter titles. Will the trio still be mourning Leo's death, or do they know he's alive now? Annabeth spends a lot of time looking for Percy until Mark of Athena, where she really gets to shine. We love a good ol' Percabeth reunion. Percy and Annabeth totally awaken Gaea with their blood, but everything works out in the end and they'll be at New Rome University soon enough. Grover wasn't in the Heroes of Olympus a lot, so we're excited to see more of him in Chalice of the Gods. Will we see Jason in the next book? We also go over some information about Ganymede, since we know he's an integral part of this story. Could Hebe be the Big Bad of Chalice of the Gods? Did you know we (kind of) saw him in Sea of Monsters? Since we know Iris will also be involved, we get some background information on her as well. Surprisingly, our research also mentioned cupcakes and tea! Did we mention how excited we are for this book!? Feedback (01:25:26) Thank you for sharing your Percy Jackson origin story with us, Ian! And thanks again for writing in to us, Caoimhe! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 101, in which we'll discuss Serwa Boateng's Guide to Witchcraft and Mayhem by Roseanne A.

Prophecy Radio episode #99 discusses all the latest Rick Riordan news, including some new information about the Chalice of the Gods book tour and the special guests who will be attending. Plus, we tackle The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid chapter 22, in which Carter gets up close and personal with Leroy, before breaking down our predictions for the rest of the book ahead of us putting the discussion on pause to switch over to Chalice of the Gods. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:01:43) You'll never guess who's going to be on the next season of Survivor! Or, if you saw our tweet, you already know. You can listen to our interview with J. Maya on Prophecy Radio episode #69. Make sure you watch her intro video and read her blurb on EW. Have you been keeping an eye on the Rick Riordan Presents books on Book Outlet? Have you read The Spirit Glass yet? Don't forget that Serwa Boateng's Guide to Witchcraft and Mayhem comes out on September 12! Read Riordan wants you to meet Declan and Auntie Effie. Don't miss out on the in-person event for Serwa Boateng 2 at Loyalty Books. The Sun and the Star has been on the NYT Bestsellers list for HOW many weeks!? The Chalice of the Gods book tour has some very special guests. The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid discussion (00:15:37) This week, we're discussing The Red Pyramid chapter 22. It really shouldn't be that easy to get through airport security? The set animal kind of looks like a moose, I guess? Bast wants them to run, but Carter wants to hold his ground, and we're so proud of him. Is this Horus making him more reckless, or is he becoming braver? How awesome was it that he could just pull his sword from thin air? Carter then gets up close and personal with Leroy. Go, chicken-man, go! Leroy gets shoved in a locker, and it's pretty impressive. Time to go to sleep, which means it's time for Prophecy Count #37! There's a giant underground red pyramid in Phoenix, and this does not bode well. We're choosing not to picture Face of Horror. Unfortunately, it doesn't sound like Set will underestimate Carter and Sadie again. Is Face of Horror working for another baddie? Can't believe we're leaving off on this chapter while we go read Chalice of Gods… Predictions for The Red Pyramid and beyond! (00:39:55) Will Carter and Sadie's mom ever come back into the story? Will Nephthys be able to convince Set to walk away from his evil machinations? Do we think Amos is going to survive this book? Is it possible that Thoth won't take sides? There will be a greater evil, and we'll just leave it at that. What if Zia ends up going against the House? By the end of this book, could the House accept Carter and Sadie as godlings? And if so, will Desjardins survive this!? We really need to learn more about him and his backstory. What if Bast is the one to make the big sacrifice? Will the kids have trouble controlling the gods inside them? Who is that boy Sadie keeps seeing and what does he want!? What other gods do we want to see? Ra has to show up at SOME point, right? What happens if and when Julius comes back into the picture? Feedback (01:10:07) When chatting with Ian, we learned some info about how publishing the Rick Riordan Presents books work. (Here's the link to The Spirit Glass on Amazon UK.) Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 100, where we'll celebrate our major milestone and do a character catch-up ahead of Chalice of the Gods!

Prophecy Radio episode #98 discusses Rick Riordan Presents' latest release: The Spirit Glass by Roshani Chokshi! We also catch you up on all the latest Rick Riordan news, including various upcoming releases like Serwa Boateng's Guide to Witchcraft and Mayhem, as well as Chalice of the Gods. This week, we also tackle The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid chapter 21, which is our first introduction to Aunt Kitty. Hey, she looks kinda familiar!? New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:02:00) Don't forget to check out Karen on Seaweed Brain Podcast! Are you going to one of the Chalice of the Gods book tour stops? Read Riordan wants you to meet Flordeliza from The Spirit Glass. You can also read an exclusive excerpt from Roshani Chokshi's latest novel. Serwa Boateng's Guide to Witchcraft and Mayhem releases on September 12. Chalice of the Gods also releases on September 26, and we give you an update on our plans for discussing the book. Kristen also gives us an update on the strikes and…Taylor Swift!? The Spirit Glass by Roshani Chokshi (00:13:24) What is this book about? What did we think about the writing, and how does it compare to Aru Shah (the series)? You should definitely pick up The Last Tale of the Flower Bride if you liked this book. There are a lot of relatable themes in this book that we'll be discussing throughout this episode. We love a book with Graci Kim vibes! Okay, let's talk about Corazon Lopez, our hero for this adventure. Althea is awesome, but Emilio? He's the best dad EVER. How does Corazon compare to Aru Shah (the character)? Saso is undoubtedly the standout character in this book. Aunt Tina is super powerful and super suspicious. The Midnight Bridge market sounds like a spooky and amazing place to visit. You could say that Librarian Bulosan is a bit entian in nature. And then there's Leo (not that Leo!), who is super cute but definitely has some secrets of his own. Lastly, we have Flordeliza, who we'll have to talk more about later. Oh, and how could we forget to talk about the House!? The spoiler section starts at 00:38:57. Let's kick off this part by talking about the Library of Mirrors. Did you catch that Aru Shah reference? So we can blame mirrors for stealing our socks!? We get a proper quest for this adventure, and all seems right with the world. First stop? Visiting Mushu Tamatoa Bakunawa. We really loved how Corazon decided what was a fair trade for his blessing. Um, the manananggal is terrifying but also kind of cool? Next up, we visit the diwata and meet the Marias. The mystery around Leo deepens! Did the Marias purposefully send Corazon into danger, and were their intentions nefarious? Kristen totally knew that Corazon's dress was a clue to what was going on. We backtrack a little bit to talk about Flordeliza's backstory. Padre Francisco was, hands down, the worst person in this book. Did you guess the Leo reveal!? Okay, let's talk about the end of this book now. Aunt Tina is WHO!? The House ended up being so much more important than we thought. Ohhhhh, that's how the soul key was formed. This book really is about grief and acceptance. Saso just needs something to fight against! Would we like a sequel to this story? The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid discussion (01:20:14) This week, we're reading The Red Pyramid chapter 21. You do NOT want to mess with the Set animal. How does Carter's falcon eyesight work and what does it mean? Is there something to the fact that Carter's abilities are more physical? What do we think about Set and Set's animal being described as evil? Cats always land on their feet, and so do cat goddesses! It's kind of cool there are consequences to turning into birds too often. We love seeing the growth between Carter and Sadie! There's lots of aunts in this week's discussion! Being able to store stuff in the Duat seems highly convenient! Did you remember the bit about the locker from the beginning of the book? This was a well-balanced chapter! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 99, where we'll discuss The Red Pyramid chapter 22 before doing some predictions for the rest of the book! This episode's hosts are: Karen Rought and Kristen Kranz.

Prophecy Radio episode #97 does a Deep Dive of the Egyptian god Horus. We also catch you up on all the latest Rick Riordan news, including some information about a couple characters we'll meet in The Spirit Glass by Roshani Chokshi, as well as the latest from the WGA/SAG-AFTRA strikes. This week, we also tackle The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid chapter 20, where we get to meet the beautiful goddess Nut. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:06:05) You should definitely check out this week's episode of Seaweed Brain Podcast. Don't forget to check the CBCC Etsy store for some signed John Rocco prints. Roseanne A. Brown's A Song of Wraiths and Ruin made Paste Magazine's list of 10 of the best YA fantasies of all time. Read Riordan wants us to meet both Leo and Aunt Tina from The Spirit Glass. We discuss a now-deleted tweet from @UpdatesPercy about how the cancellation of The Spiderwick Chronicles and Disney+ shouldn't affect the Percy Jackson show. We also give you the latest from the WGA regarding the August 22 negotiations. Deadline also reports on AMPTP's release of the August 11 proposal. The Hollywood Reporter also reports that AMPTP hired a new crisis PR firm. Deep Dive: Horus (00:22:37) There were a lot of different versions of Horus, and he had a lot of different names! This makes sense because Ancient Egypt lasted about twice as long as Ancient Greece. You might've already known he was the falcon god, but do you know which of his eyes represents the moon and which represents the sun? Do you know, specifically, what kind of falcon Horus turns into? The family dynamics for any god will be super interesting! How was Horus conceived? We really earn our PG-13 rating with our discussion of Set and Horus' battle for dominance. Do you know what the Egyptians considered the sixth sense? Even if you don't know much about Egyptian mythology, you've probably seen the eye of Horus once or twice in your life. Again: The family dynamics of gods are SUPER WEIRD. Do you know which god the Greeks associated with Horus? Horus was a BIG deal for the pharaohs of Ancient Egypt. And his fight with Set was extremely symbolic. The Festival of Victory was kind of barbaric. Set has a lot of sacred and symbolic animals. Like, A LOT. Sources: Britannica.com EgyptianMuseum.org BeliefMap.org Medium.com Study.com Wikipedia.org The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid discussion (00:42:45) This week, we discuss The Red Pyramid chapter 20. Why was Sadie able to change the shape of her ba? And why is everyone a chicken!? Why does this mysterious boy only visit Sadie? Shame on everyone who didn't remind Karen about the Prophecy Count! Nut looks awesome, and she reminds us of another goddess we saw recently. Would you try sahlab? What kind of relationship do Nut and Isis have? For a goddess, nut is kind of chill, which is a relief considering Sadie's…personality quirks. We get into a philosophical discussion about chaos and order. Why couldn't Nut just TELL Sadie what happened when she descended to earth? Will Set ever become an ally? We got so much information in this chapter! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 98, where we'll discuss The Spirit Glass by Roshani Chokshi before jumping into The Red Pyramid chapter 21! This episode's hosts are: Karen Rought and Kristen Kranz.

Prophecy Radio episode #96 celebrates Percy Jackson's birthday with some great fanart, awesome recipes, and a few fun quizzes. How did you celebrate!? We also catch you up on all the latest Rick Riordan news, including some great articles that hint at what's to come in Serwa Boateng's Guide to Witchcraft and Mayhem, The Spirit Glass, and even Chalice of the Gods. This week, we also tackle The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid chapter 19 and get to experience a picnic in the sky. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:01:04) We remind you that we won't be discussing any news about the forthcoming Disney+ show until the WGA/SAG-AFTRA strikes are over. Happy birthday, Dior Goodjohn! It's time to meet Funtunfunefu-Denkyemfunefu from Serwa Boateng's Guide to Witchcraft and Mayhem by Roseanne A. Brown. And not to be left out, we also talk about Corazon from the upcoming The Spirit Glass by Roshani Chokshi. Read Riordan also had a nice little check-in with the goddess Iris, and we got some cool insight into what will happen in Chalice of the Gods. We also now have a release date for the Lightning Thief collector's edition. Lastly, we talk about AI and art after seeing a tweet on the topic from Victo Ngai. Happy birthday, Percy Jackson! (00:20:13) You can make some awesome Percy Jackson-inspired cupcakes like we did! We also have some other ideas for things you can bake, like these cookies or your own ambrosia/nectar. Have you listened to the Percy Jackson musical soundtrack lately? The Percy Jackson coloring book is always a good way to pass the time. There are so many things you can throw on in the background while you color, like, oh, a certain podcast? Or maybe you want to listen the audiobooks! Kristen recommends them. If you can travel, you should totally do a Percy Jackson tour of NYC. It's completely normal to expect presents for someone else's birthday, right? We also go through some of the best artwork we saw on Percy Jackson's birthday, like this polaroid and cute little Nico/Percy scene from Soia. Dududrigs drew a picture of Percy attending Blue Beetle for his birthday. And even the Empire State Building got in on the action. Thanks to Camp Half-Blood Updates, we saw this beautiful illustration of older and younger Percy from @starsarekind. Hellredsky also drew a picture of Percy covered in icing. And then there was this beautiful illustration of the trio from @182tweets. We finish up Percy's birthday by taking a couple of quizzes. Based on your work habits, which god are you descended from? Based on your college experience, which demigod are you? The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid discussion (01:04:48) This week, we're discussing The Red Pyramid chapter 19. It's pretty cool that the entirety of the Louvre is a portal. Carter lost his sword, and this is such a foreign concept to us. If you already lost your sword, WHY WOULD YOU THROW YOUR WAND? Bast very helpfully throws the kids through the portal. We discuss the fact that the Washington Monument is the default portal in the U.S. Why can't anyone read Thoth's book? Is it because it's too dangerous? For some reason Bast can't understand why the kids prefer grilled cheese over Friskies. Did you know what the shape of an obelisk represented? Bast finally tells us more about her time being trapped in the obelisk, and honestly, it sounds horrible. Do we really think the monster didn't escape? Sadie finally tells Carter about what Iskandar said. If their parents weren't trying to release Bast, what were they trying to do!? We love Big Brother Carter. Feedback (01:25:46) Ian shares how he celebrated Percy's birthday with his kids. Robert makes us crave some blue smoothies. And Rachel shows off her awesome art skills! Thank you, Sarwat, for listening to our discussion of your book and being so supportive of the podcast! JustAMediaGuy wants an RRP crossover as badly as we do. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 97, where we'll do a Deep Dive on Horus before jumping into The Red Pyramid chapter 20! This episode's hosts are: Karen Rought and Kristen Kranz.

Prophecy Radio episode #95 asks which Rick Riordan Presents characters would make for the best team-ups before catching you up on all the latest Rick Riordan news, like who Chalice of the Gods is dedicated to and what a few of our favorite campers are up to this summer. This week, we also tackle The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid chapter 18 and get a firsthand look at how formidable fruit bats can truly be. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:01:49) Did you see who Rick dedicated Chalice of the Gods to? If you're in a book burnout, short stories and novellas are a good place to get you back into the swing of it! We read through a couple of the blurbs from Read Riordan's Camp Half-Blood middle of summer check-in article. Will Solace has a special set of skills… The world is so weird, the existence of Camp Half-Blood is the least of our worries these days. What is Bob the Titan up to now? Can you willfully ignore Rachel's prophecies?? Best Rick Riordan Presents team-ups (00:13:45) We were inspired to do this episode based on Kristen's idea to pair Annabeth, Chela, and Belet together for an adventure. And let's not forget the chaos that would ensue between the Arrow of Dodona, Jack/the Sword of Summer, and Kasusu. There are plenty of characters who are into science and must face a mythological monster. Dead Brothers Club unite! There are two stories that deal in Korean mythology, and so we can't pass up that opportunity. Karen mentioned this before, but Sik and Samirah could end up being such a great duo. Would Samirah and Belet become best friends? Probably. We start thinking of monsters who would make great team-ups. Let's not forget about the parents!! Some of our listeners write in with their own pairings. The Red Pyramid discussion (00:49:18) This week, we're discussing The Red Pyramid chapter 18. It's a rainy day in Paris, but you know, it's still Paris. Being in Paris is actually the best place they ever could've ended up. We learn more about godlings and what happened in the museum and how the amulets work. Who is hosting Set!? This is the chapter with all the answers, finally, because we learn what happened to their mom. Time to break into Desjardins' house! Why couldn't Sadie turn back into a human? We learn a little bit more about Desjardins and how young he is…for a magician. It's time to go, but the fruit bats don't want them to leave. Where can they go to escape a second time? We can't wait for a Sadie chapter to learn more about her relationship with Isis. Feedback (01:18:17) Dr. Gina writes in to say how much she loved our interview with Sarwat Chadda! Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 96, where we'll celebrate Percy Jackson's birthday before jumping into The Red Pyramid chapter 19! This episode's hosts are: Karen Rought and Kristen Kranz.

Prophecy Radio episode #94 discusses Fury of the Dragon Goddess by Sarwat Chadda before catching you up on all the latest Rick Riordan news, including some fun news from several different Rick Riordan Presents authors. Oh, and we give you a quick update on the WGA/SAG strikes and how they'll affect the podcast moving forward. This week, we pause our discussion of The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid in order to chat with Sarwat Chadda about his latest release. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:01:28) Read Riordan did a spotlight on up-and-coming Camp Half-Blood Campers and this seems to be mostly focused on characters from The Trials of Apollo. Fury of the Dragon Goddess by Sarwat Chadda is now officially out in the world! Read a Fury of the Deagon Goddess excerpt on Read Riordan. Kristen tells us about her experience attending the Fury of the Dragon Goddess virtual tour that Sarwat did with Books of Wonder. Did you know Kwame Mbalia is writing a short story for the Star Wars anthology From a Certain Point of View? Mark Oshiro will be at the National Book Festival on August 12. Make sure you check out Daniel José Older's new podcast Inkbottle. We also talk about some SAG-AFTRA updates that will affect the podcast. Fury of the Dragon Goddess by Sarwat Chadda (00:11:16) At long last, it's time to talk about Fury of the Dragon Goddess, the second book in the Adventures of Sik Aziz series. What is this book about? How did we feel about this book compared to the last one? What was it like reading about Sik and the others being in London instead of NYC? There are a lot of themes shared between these two books, but there are also some specific to Dragon Goddess. It's so interesting that we're reading this book at the same time we're talking about The Red Pyramid! Sik is still not a warrior, and we LOVE that about him. We're so happy he got to travel this time around…even if it all went horribly wrong. Daoud is, like, super famous now. We loved that this didn't solve all his problems, and we still got to see him (and his relationship with Sik) grow over the course of the book. Is Belet no longer looking for her mother? What's the deal with this tablet? Did we like that this book dealt a lot with (female) rage? Have you read “The Loneliest Demon” from Cursed Carnivals and Other Calamities? Who is Rabisu and why is she so great? Why does she want to kill Belet so badly, and why can't she? Everyone likes a pigeon sandwich…right? Wait, Rabisu has been WHERE? Who's Dumuzi, and how did he get with Ishtar? He might not be the greatest dad, but he seemed like a pretty good person. Lugal, on the other hand, seems to be a lot more complicated. And if you're looking for another character to compare him to, maybe try…Ultron. The spoiler section starts at 00:49:37. Let's talk about that black market party and how utterly racist those old ladies were. What did we think of Daoud's reaction to it all? Did we believe Mo was really back when we first saw him again? The repercussions of this mistake are huge, and Lugal just makes it worse. And you thought Belet was full of rage before… Sik's changes happen slowly, but some of them are pretty cool. Okay, we have to talk about the asylum scene. What's Lugal's ultimate purpose? During that final confrontation, Sik wins in his own way. We thought we lost Mo all over again, but Sik wasn't gonna let that happen. How does this story end, and what could possibly be next? Interview with Sarwat Chadda (01:19:05) We're so excited to talk about Fury of the Dragon Goddess with Sarwat Chadda!! How does he get into (and stay in) the mood to write? Any go-to snacks? Sarwat gives us a great breakdown of what inspired this story. How did he balance the horror in this book for his audience? Which came first, this book or the short story with Rabisu? Sarwat talks a little bit about having Fury of the Dragon Goddess take place in London. And yes, he definitely remembers the Kane Chronicles! He also gives us a fantastic answer regarding the topic of repatriation. What did he want to accomplish with a character like Lugal? Can rage ever be used as a force for good? What makes Daoud so compelling? It's time to talk about those Percy Jackson references! Who would Sarwat choose from Greek mythology to have as a godly parent? Which Rick Riordan Presents book would he love to live inside? Any book recommendations for us? Has Sarwat thought about what comes next after Fury of the Dragon Goddess? You'll never guess how many more projects he has coming up! Thank you for talking with us, Sarwat! It was a pleasure. Feedback (02:25:58) We hear from a couple listeners about their experience reading Fury of the Dragon Goddess. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 95, in which we'll discuss which Rick Riordan Presents characters would make for the best team-ups, before jumping into The Red Pyramid chapter 18! This episode's hosts are: Karen Rought and Kristen Kranz.

Prophecy Radio episode #93 discusses City of the Plague God by Sarwat Chadda ahead of the sequel's release, Fury of the Dragon Goddess before catching you up on all the latest Rick Riordan news, including what sort of Percy Jackson and the Olympians content we got from San Diego Comic-Con 2023. This week, we're also talking about The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid by tackling chapter 17, in which the Kanes end up in Paris and run into an old friend. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:02:32) We're kicking off this week's news and updated by talking about SDCC. We had some boots on the ground at the convention and got a peek at what the campers were handing out. Next up, we talk in-depth about the new Percy Jackson and the Olympians character posters. Oh yeah, and there was even a flash mob! Don't forget that Fury of the Dragon Goddess comes out on August 1! Books of Wonder is hosting a virtual tour, and it's gonna be awesome. Read Riordan also posted an article about Lugal, the god of insanity. On June 27, Rick wrote a blog post talking about the Chalice of the Gods book tour. We go through all of the tour stops, plus the Boston Book Festival happening in October. Can Rick talk about the show on tour? We also think he'll be talking about his next project. Oh, and Karen will be at another stop! We also discuss whether we'll stop our The Red Pyramid discussion to talk about Chalice of the Gods. Don't forget to check out this Bookseller interview. City of the Plague God by Sarwat Chadda (00:23:38) Talking about this book has been a long time coming, and we're so glad to finally discuss it on the podcast! What's this book about? We talk about our overall feelings for the book and the writing. It's wild to think this was written before COVID. But don't worry, this book won't remind you too much of the pandemic. It's well worth reading the Foreword, if only to see what it was like to have Rick as a teacher. This book teaches us a lot about racism, being a hero, dealing with grief, and fighting for your home. It seems only right to kick off the character section by talking about Sikander Aziz. All work and no play makes Sik a tired boy. There's so much to love about Sik, but especially his compassion for other people. We draw some parallels between Sik and Samirah/Magnus Chase. Daoud seems only skin-deep at first glance, but we both loved him from the beginning. We also loved Belet, who has a killer roundhouse kick. She's so intense, but her and Sik balance each other out perfectly. SO. MANY. CATS. Kasusu is an amazing sword, and it reminds us a lot of another magical weapon from one of Rick's books. What's it like being both the goddess of love AND war? Ishtar is both amazing and terrifying. And then there's Nergal. Sure, he's the antagonist in this book, but he's also a necessary balance to the circle of life. The spoiler section starts at 01:04:05. If you're used to handling New Yorkers in the morning, you can definitely take on a pack of demons. SURPRISE, Sikander is immortal. We're a little smitten with Gilgamesh, not gonna lie. How do you accidentally end up in the afterlife? By taking the wrong train, of course. The scenes between Sik and Mo were incredible but also heartbreaking. THE BAGHDAD SAUCE. It wasn't easy to get the flower that grants immortality, but they did it. We learn something amazing about Mo and Daoud. Nergal is defeated in the most spectacular way. The end of the book gives us some interesting final moments between Sik and Daoud, his family, and even Belet. We're so happy City of the Plague God gets a sequel in Fury of the Dragon Goddess. It's fun to read the author's note, and Sarwat has some wonderful things to tell us about this book and about Rick Riordan. Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid discussion (01:35:18) This week, we're discussing The Red Pyramid chapter 17! Carter becomes a chicken again, and we talk about what this dream could mean. Carter gets in trouble with Zia, but it informs us a lot about her AND about him. Gods, her story is tragic, and now we're sad. Did someone steal Zia's memories? It's nice that Carter still remembers his mom. Are Carter and Zia going on a date!? Okay, it's time to leave and go to…Paris!? Thank the gods for Bast. Feedback (01:54:08) We got some wonderful mentions on Threads, and several people remind us how much they miss our old podcast, Book Hype. Did you know you can leave reviews for podcasts on Audible!? Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 94, in which we'll discuss Fury of the Dragon Goddess by Sarwat Chadda, before jumping into an interview with the man himself! This episode's hosts are: Karen Rought and Kristen Kranz.

Prophecy Radio episode #92 catches you up on all the latest Rick Riordan news, from upcoming Rick Riordan Presents books like Fury of the Dragon Goddess to the current WGA/SAG-AFTRA strikes and what they mean for the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series on Disney+. This week, we're also talking about The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid by tackling chapter 16, in which Zia embraces the singed-eyebrow look. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. News and Updates (00:06:26) Happy birthday, Annabeth Chase! Fury of the Dragon Goddess by Sarwat Chadda releases on August 1. Pre-order it here. Make sure you check out the virtual launch event for the book! Read Riordan has an article so you can refresh your memory on City of the Plague God. If you want play D&D with Sarwat Chadda, you can learn all the details here. You can also catch up with Daoud and meet Dumuzi, thanks to Read Riordan. Sarwat had a lot of wonderful things to say about being a part of the Rick Riordan Presents family. The Spirit Glass by Roshani Chokshi got a starred review from Publisher's Weekly. Rick Riordan and Mark Oshiro share their favorite recent reads. Be sure to check out the Boston Book Festival, where Rick will be a keynote speaker this year. Read Riordan is hitting it out of the park with this Chalice of the Gods articles, including the one about the New Rome University course guide. We have SO. MANY. IDEAS. Would you want John Rocco to do a special edition cover for Chalice of the Gods so it could match your original series? Someone needs to update this Percy Jackson guide to the Met Museum. Don't expect to see Nico and Bianca in Percy Jackson and the Olympians season 1. We're so happy Glynn Turman got to pick the horse he's working with on the show. Let's talk about Percy Jackson at San Diego Comic-Con 2023. Did you catch the new Percy Jackson poster and SDCC bag? Looks like there's a chance of Percy Jackson on Saturday. We get to see a slightly new image of the trio. And here's a picture of the Disney Books poster at SDCC 2023. Kristen breaks down new information about the WGA and SAG-AFTRA strikes, plus what it means for us at the podcast. Huge thank you to Mel for asking us to go into detail about all of this! You can find the SAG-AFTRA strike rules on Variety. The biggest one to keep in mind is that if the studio is asking you to promote something, DON'T DO IT. Yes, the podcast will keep covering all the Percy Jackson and the Olympians news because we are just fans talking about what we love. What's the future of these strikes? D.B. Woodside had some really important information to share about why SAG is striking. What does all this mean for Percy Jackson and the Olympians? Why isn't Rick saying much about the show? What projects are on hold and which ones can he still work on? Why wasn't Rick Riordan at Comic-Con? We'll keep you updated with more information once it becomes available! Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid discussion (01:08:50) This week, we're reading The Red Pyramid chapter 16. Put us down for not wanting to be woken up the way Zia wakes Sadie. Why didn't Carter sleep well? How do we get some bottled Thoth Water? That tongue tattoo was pretty cool. Either do what Zia tells you to…or die. What are the magicians' specialties and which can we unanimously agree is a no-go for us? There are some really great moments while Carter and Sadie learn to bring hierglyphs to life with magic. We're so happy we learned about Luxor/Thebes in our last episode. How strong is Zia, exactly? It's time to duel, and it definitely does not go according to plan. We learn a little bit more about the Kanes' familial background. Iskandar is dead, and even though we saw this coming, it's still sad. It also spells major trouble for the Kanes. Zia's willing to give them a five-minute head start, and that's about as good as it's going to get. Feedback (01:28:42) Tim writes in with a little What If… for The Last Olympian. Caoimhe also catches us up on her reactions to the last few episodes and gives us a great idea for a future one. It seems Bobbi is as big of a fan of Hapshetsut as we are. Thanks for listening, and tune in next time for episode 93, in which we'll discuss City of the Plague God by Sarwat Chadda, and then read The Red Pyramid chapter 17!

Prophecy Radio episode #91 provides you with a brief history lesson on some of the more well-known monuments found across Egypt, since several of them have been mentioned in The Red Pyramid so far. This week, we're skipping the news, but we'll be back with more in the next episode. We also return to The Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid by tackling chapter 15, in which Osiris has the worst birthday of his life. New episodes of Prophecy Radio air weekly, and we keep our discussions PG-13. History Lesson: 5 Egyptian Monuments You Should Know (00:01:03) We're talking about five awesome monuments you should know about from Egyptian history. And, of course, we have to start with the Great Pyramid of Giza. Believe it or not, Khufu is NOT just a baboon. English just doesn't phlegm as well as other languages. It's pretty impressive that a PYRAMID was the largest man-made structure for such a long time. You can't talk about the Great Pyramid without mentioning in the Sphinx! Are there differences between the Greek and Egyptian sphinxes? It's important to acknowledge the dark history behind a lot of historical monuments. Let's travel to Karnak next. Have you heard of this one before? It has so much historical significance, it's wild! If you haven't heard of Luxor, you've probably heard of Thebes. Do you remember talking about Aten before? There's so much duality when it comes to the gods. Wait, HOW many pharaohs contributed to Karnak? There's a reason why we're talking about Hatshepsut and that reason is because she's awesome. What's a mortuary temple and what purpose does it serve? Okay, it would be a little cool to have a cult (not THAT kind of cult). Let's learn a little more about Hatshepsut because she is FASCINATING. We'd love to learn more about her through a queer lens. Let's learn more about Luxor/Thebes. Instead of being dedicated to a specific god or pharaoh, it was dedicated to kingship in general. Everyone wanted to say they were crowned here, even if they never made it that far (looking at you, Alex). The chapel inside changed a lot over time, for better or worse. You've probably heard of the Valley of the Kings, but do you know its official name? We're learning so many new words this week! The Valley of the Monkeys is just as interesting, too! If you're wondering, yes, this is where King Tut is buried. Did you enjoy this History Lesson? Kane Chronicles: The Red Pyramid discussion (00:34:54) This week, we're tackling The Red Pyramid chapter 15. Cobras wandering the halls? NBD. The grass is always greener on the other side! Sadie's attitude about not fitting in is much healthier than ours was as kids. Imagine reliving a GOD'S memory!? It's definitely weird that Isis looks like Sadie's mom. C'mon, Osiris, you should know better than to trust Set! Is this the origin of the sarcophagus? When do you think we should do a Deep Dive on Set? No big deal, but Sadie almost died. Unfortunately, Osiris DID die, but it kind of worked out for him. The relationships between gods is always gonna be weird. Being the host for a god sounds hazardous to your health. Do we have any guesses as to who the mysterious kid was? Is Iskandar dying!?

Interview starts at 31:00 Geoffrey Drumm from The Land of Chem joins us for a great chat about the pyramids in Egypt and what they may have been used for. Like a massive chemical manufacturing plant, like making ammonia and mass productions of Egyptian Blue paint and what was so special about this amazing blue coating used all over the Mediterranean? Are these all connected underground, whey make them so big, why would they need all these chemicals and what was the land like back then? What about the huge calcite and granite bowls and catch basins. We also talk about his book, "The Land of Chem - An Initiation Into Ancient Chemistry Through the Degrees of the Egyptian Pyramids", and using manual to collect methane, make ammonia, and then using that to create many other things. We chat about his experiments, the resonance and pressure chambers within the pyramids, the Red Pyramid, The granite boxes, and the chemical testing that has been done there by the Isida Project. https://thelandofchem.com/ https://isida-project.ucoz.com/ In the intro we chat about UFO's, Darren's travels and the latest Magic on the Mountain at Shasta, our youtube strike and more.... https://youtu.be/r7Ybc6-ZZ78 Help support the show, because we can't do it without ya.
