Show Notes
It's the first ever episode of The Newest Seaweed Donut/The Olympian Monster Brain! After our visit to set for the filming of Percy Jackson and the Olympians Season 2, the PJO Pod Squad was tasked by writer Daphne Olive to make predictions based on a sizzle reel shown to us right before our van ride home. I turned on my travel mic, we shared our thoughts, and we've been given permission by Disney to share this all with you (WHICH WE HAD TO WAIT FOR BECAUSE WE DISCUSS A LINE THAT WAS CUT FROM THE SHOW)! Enjoy!
