At listener Kaetlyn's urging, Brenna and Joe check out S01 of the Percy Jackson TV show on Disney+.

It's a much better text than the film! With more time, the central trio gels better, the motivation of Percy's mom is more clearly defined, and the adventures aren't as rushed.

Plus: our fave Gods, a "feminist" Medusa episode, a few rushed elements, and whether we'll watch S02.
