| 0:02.0 | I'm just a kid. Sitting on a titular newest Olympian. I'm a 30-year-old man who never read |
| 0:37.8 | the Percy Jackson books as a kid, but I'm reading them now as an adult to determine if this is a book series that we should have been reading all along, if this is something that's been slept on by society. I'm not on this quest alone, though. I am joined in the same room seated very close to me because we are sharing a microphone in our bedroom. |
