We're off this week, but instead of leaving you with nothing to listen to, I proudly present the first episode of my new Fast & Furious podcast I co-created with Eric Hamilton Schneider, The Last and the Curious! If you like what you hear from this first episode and want to hear the rest of the podcast, you can access all 13 episodes completely ad-free at thelastandthecurio.us for just $5! We've been working on this pod since 2023 and are incredibly proud of the result, so we hope you enjoy it. Thanks for listening, and see you next week with more Heroes of Olympus coverage!
