  • Enjoyable podcast about PJO

    I’m reading through the Percy Jackson universe for the first time, and I have thoroughly enjoyed your frank discussions about the books. Each episode is getting better. You’re bringing up some good issues with the content - the good and the problematic.

    Love your coverage of the television show. The latest interview with Dior Goodjohn was so entertaining. The questions revealed so much.

    FYI - There is a problem with two of your episodes: The Sea of Monsters part 2 and The Mark of Athena part... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Percy Jackson Stunt Performer Cassandra Ebner on the Art of Being Uncomfortable!
Q: Tell us about the process of the Siren makeup and movement and how that was developed across departments?
She explains the collaboration between wires, costumes, makeup, and stunt teams to craft three distinct Siren embodiments, testing movements on camera, and adjusting for safety and aesthetic on rock platforms and wires.
Is Percy Jackson TV Truly a Family Story? Ft. Jennifer and Jayda Borget!
Q: Do you believe Percabeth is the greatest love story ever told?
Yes, they feel Percabeth is the best love story, having grown up with it and seeing it reinterpreted for new audiences, while still resonating with long-time fans.
Percy Jackson VFX Supervisor Erik Henry Talks Season 2!
Q: What were the core design challenges when creating the Chimera for Percy Jackson Season 2?
Erik explains they aimed for a grounded, non-hokey look, choosing a multi-legged bull-inspired form that could later stand on two legs, with modular features like a movable hoof and a posable thumb to allow it to grab and interact with characters.
Coloring Percy Jackson & The Olympians with Charles Bunnag, Senior Colorist!
Q: Can you describe a moment where color decisions changed the tone of a scene?
During the chariot race, lighting and color choices were adjusted to reflect danger and scale, avoiding a too-bright or too-gloopy look, and the result helped convey peril and drama without breaking the audience's immersion.
Coloring Percy Jackson & The Olympians with Charles Bunnag, Senior Colorist!
Q: How did color grading evolve from traditional film timing to digital, and what does that mean for how you work today?
Color timing started with film where exposure and development defined the image; digital tools allowed immediate feedback, broader ranges, and collaboration, meaning I can shape mood in real time and coordinate with lighting, VFX, and production design to tell the story more effectively.
