<p>HE'S BACK! That's right! This chapter has all the action you could want. Tyson returns, Percy Jackson demonstrates his true godly strength as he bests his strongest adversary yet, and our heroes finally get their hands on the golden fleece itself. We're breaking down all the action, so that you don't miss a moment before diving into one of our biggest myths in the Sea of Monsters, a breakdown of the entire story of the golden fleece from it's beginning to the end of the Argonautica. </p><p><strong>This Week's Myths:</strong></p><ul><li>The Golden Fleece</li><li>The Argonautica</li></ul><p></p><p><strong>The Oracle's Visions!

<p>Join in this week as Jack and Connor discuss the home of the Cyclops... Percy Jackson and Annabeth have arrived at the home of Polyphemus, so we're finally taking the opportunity to take a deep dive into Odysseus's encounter with the classic monstrous villain of the Odyssey in this week's myth section alongside our usual chapter breakdown where we're laughing at carnivorous sheep, lamenting the stupidity of Clarisse, and celebrating the return of the GOAT himself, Grover!</p><p><strong>This Week's Myths:</strong></p><ul><li>Polyphemus</li></ul><p></p><p><strong>The Oracle's Visions!

Chapter 13: Annabeth Tries to Swim Home | The Sea of Monsters

<p>I hope you're listening with headphones this week because Percy Jackson is facing the Siren's song as he and Annabeth journey further into the Sea of Monsters. Connor and Jack are discussing how this chapter has it all. We're breaking down the emotional moments that give this chapter depth for the characters and some solid son-of-the-sea-god action before taking on two very different myths. First, Connor is addressing some of the set dressing and talking about the volcanic island forges of Hephaestus before exploring the surprisingly intricate lore of the Sirens.</p><p><strong>This Week's Myths:</strong></p><ul><li>Forges of Hephaestus</li><li>Sirens</li></ul><p></p><p><strong>The Oracle's Visions!
