Chapter 11: Clarisse Blows Up Everything | The Sea of Monsters

Saison 2 · Épisode 10

dimanche 3 mai 2026 • Durée 02:45:22

It's official. Here there be monsters... That's right! Percy Jackson and friends are crossing the threshold into the Sea of Monsters where they're facing down the biggest, most dangerous foes they've faced yet: the legendary Scylla and Charybdis. Connor and Jack are breaking down every moment of this chapter's heart-pounding action before exploring the depths of the mythology that these monsters have to offer. But that's not all because Jack has brought a brand new Ramblings from Cabin 6 where this time he's providing another historical deep dive into America's civil war. This time, he's covering Union hero Laura Jackson, a lesser known historical figure and sister of the famous confederate, General Stonewall Jackson, so be sure to stick around to the very end of this episode, so you don't miss a moment!
