Hi! I am Ariel, and I am your host.
Tales of Olympus is a podcast that brings Greek mythology to life—one story at a time. From powerful gods to terrifying monsters, and heroic quests to magical myths, each episode explores the wonders of ancient legends.
I also talk about the Percy Jackson series—how it connects to the original myths, and why it’s so fun to read. If you love Camp Half-Blood, demigods, and epic quests, you’ll feel right at home.
Whether you’re new to Greek myths or already obsessed like me, there’s always something epic waiting in every episode.
Get ready to climb Mount Olympus—one tale at a time!

I Somehow Turned A Life Update Into Greek Mythology...(I Rant for 14 Minutes Straight?!!)
Sooo… this was supposed to be a life update. Somehow, we ended up talking about Greek mythology, being yourself, the future of Taipei, ancient prophecies, ocean currents, and why an Oracle telling you to “take the MRT” would actually be incredibly unhelpful. Totally normal episode. want you to be. So in this slightly chaotic 14-minute rant, we're talking about finding your own voice, living your own style, why being eleven doesn't mean it's too early to care about the future, what ancient Greek prophecies have to do with modern life, and how one voice can travel from Taipei, to Taiwan, to the world. A Taipei of the World. 🌏 Oh—and somehow ocean currents get involved. Don't ask. Just listen. 🌊 Live your own life. Tell your own story. And most importantly—live your own style.

Before mint was your favorite scoop of mint chocolate chip ice cream or a garden garnish, it was an Underworld Naiad nymph who caught the eye of Hades, Lord of the Dead. But what happens when you bring water nymph arrogance to a showdown with the Queen of the Underworld? (Spoiler alert: Persephone’s golden sandals show absolutely NO mercy!)
Join Ariel as she unpacks:
💧 The Emo River of Wailing: Meet the River Cocytus and its resident drama queen nymph.
👠 The Ultimate Stomp-Down: Why running your mouth to the Dread Goddess Persephone will literally get you pulverized into garden herbs.
🕵️♀️ The Big Mythological Cold Case: Did Hades actually cheat on Persephone, or was Minthe just a bitter ex who couldn't let go?
