Are you ready to jam out with the gods? Because Live From Mount Olympus returns with its first-ever musical season!
When Apollo, shining god of music, releases his hit single, “Dragon Slayer,” Hermes invites him into his Godspod podcast. With the swagger of a divine rock star, Apollo shares his daring triumphs, while Hermes grills Apollo on his challenges in the arena of love and exposes Apollo’s act of terrible cruelty against his twin sister Artemis, for which the shining god of music must seek forgiveness – or risk the destruction of all of Olympus.
