This episode of the New Slylampian is brought to by Pretty Letter. Now in the Percy Jackson books, we have animals and beasts that can do quite grandiose feats. And I'm not sure that your mortal cat could do a feat like that. But if your mortal cat could write a letter to Santa, you know what they might ask for? Pretty litter. It's the holiday season. You got to get something for your cat. You can give your cat the gift

of pretty litter and then you give yourself the gift of easy cleanup, odor control, and peace

of mind. That's because pretty litter helps monitor your cat's health by testing acidity and

alkalinity levels in the visible presence of blood in your cat's urine. And pretty litter's

crystals are safer cats and people alike. They change color to detect early signs of potential illnesses like metabolic acidosis, urinary tract infections, kidney issues, and more. I don't have a pet. I don't really know what those do to your pet, but those all sound horrible. So catch them before things get bad. Pretty litter ships free directly to your door. You don't have to deal with heavy bags to carry. You don't have to deal with last minute pet store runs. And the advanced odor control of pretty litter means that your home will smell like a home and not a litter box. Pretty litter has an ultra-absorbent formula that uses less material than clay litter. That reduces waste and saves you money. It's ideal for apartments, busy lifestyles or multi-cat households. As you know, I'm a zero cat household. But I have podcasting cohorts of mine that have cats, and I've sent pretty litter to some of those cohorts, including Adam Amalala, cohoast of horse, and the family of Sherry Guo, the editor of the News Olympian. Both households love the pretty litter. They have said that they enjoy the lack of smell, the lack of dust, and the cats both have enjoyed the litter itself and the cat toys that came with the litter. Yes, you can get cat toys.

Nobody knows how it's physically possible. 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 Newston Olympian. I'm a 33-year-old man who never had the Percy Jackson books as a kid, but I read them as an adult because I was on a quest to determine if society had been sleeping on that book series. I said yes. and now I'm seeing if society has also been sleeping on the Heroes of Olympus series. And I'm joined today by folks who you've heard on the podcast many a times. And you've also heard a brief featuring part of a recent episode we did. But we had to bring it back for a full one. And LOL to the chapters that have perfectly landed as the stars always align for two very funny reasons.

It's the folks from Monster Donut.

It's Emily and Phoebe.

How's it going, team?

It's going well.

Hello.

Yeah, it's good.

I was fun rereading these ones.

Yeah, it was fun because I had a situation where I had a couple of chapters left before the big moment, which we're recording this on Wednesday, September 10th, and then the live show is this coming Saturday.

There was a couple of open slots and I had texted you all saying, you know, what do you want to do?

And then Emily, I think, responded with, oh, these would have some good stuff for us in it. And the two things that come up that are very on brand for your podcast, very fun. And I'm excited to chat about those. It's always fun when the scheduling stars align. And, you know, there weren't a lot of open sections, but, you know, there was the opportunity for this. And also, these chapters just rip, super fun. Mm-hmm. I feel like I've asked you every possible returning guest question at this point, right? So I feel like we should just get into it because you did the, if you had your cabins, what would they look like? Yeah. Yes. Yeah. All righty. Well, you're outpacing my ability to ask people more questions.

So. they look like question. Yeah. Yes. Yeah. All righty. Well, you're outpacing my ability to ask people more questions. So let's get into it. Now, where we last left our heroes, they were about
