Like, ooh, I like that.

No, I have to go see it.

You know now.

No. What, don't I have to go see it? You know now. What's good?

Thank you so much for tuning in to another episode of the Newsomellympian.

My name is Mike Schubert.

I'm the titular Newsomian.

I am a 33-year-old man who never read the Percy Jackson books as a kid. I read them as an adult, though, because I was on a quest to determine if this was a book series that society had been sleeping on the series. I had decided that society had been sleeping on the Heroes of Olympa series, the sequel books. And I am joined today by a very special guest, a repeat guest to the podcast, but still holding the crown as TNO's youngest guest. It's Niharika Batacharya. Nihariya, how's it going? It's going really good. I just got out of school like two hours ago. Amazing. So, you know, pretty good. How's school? How's it going? Well, I started a new school, so it's been three weeks, and I want to cry because I'm so tired. But, you know, that's the way it is.

I think I was worthy of a seven and I just got scammed. But okay. But that was really good. And yeah, so now I'm in a different school because I'm in a different level, I guess. I'm in Norwegian high school now. So that's what it is. Yeah. Great. And age-wise,

you are 17 now? No. No? I am turning 16 in October. Oh, no. Oh, no. A little bit off,

a little bit off. But I skipped a grade. So my classmates are all like 17 now.

Oh, wow. Okay. Well, I'm excited to have you on these chapters. It's been long in the works to get you back on the pod. And we're here for some very exciting ones. This stuff is really ramping up. Before we get into these three chapters, though, chapters 43 through 45, we've got to ask you the repeat-ass question, which is, what cabin would you be in? That's never up for debate for me. I think I I would be in the Athena cabin. I love reading. I like to think I'm good at school. I'm just a little bit of a nerd like that. And that's okay. It is. In a good way, that is not like annoying about it. You're in a safe place amongst nerds as well. So you are good. And yeah, look, I'm sure the mark of Athena has been
