We've arrived at our PENULTIMATE Heroes of Olympus episode with returning guest Blue and her irl HUSBAND Josh! Together, we journey into Jason's final POV, the battle between the demigods and the giants, being slapped back to Long Island, and the big (big?) final Gaea battle. There is MUCH to say about the culmination of Jason's arc, Percy nearly fist fighting Zeus, and Hera's role in all this. Not to mention everyone suddenly remembering The Lost Hero. Strap in, friends, we're almost there.
