I'm going to figure it out. It'll be the only good true crime podcast. What's good? Thank you so much for tuning in to another episode of The Newst Olympian. My name is Mike Schubert. I'm the titular News Olympian. I'm a grown man who didn't read the Percy Jackson books as a kid. Read them as an adult to determine if this is a book series that the world has been sleeping on, said that, yeah, we've been sleeping on it.

What would they taste like for

you? For nectar, a blue raspberry icy. Nice, classic. Ambrosia, I feel like it has to be something
