Our Mission
The Odyssey Scoop is a website dedicated to providing the latest, up-to-date information about the world's #1 audio drama series, Adventures in Odyssey (AIO). The Odyssey Scoop exists to provide news regarding upcoming products, to promote the brand, to maintain visitor involvement throughout the site, to connect with the visitors, and to create a safe alternative to many websites on the internet.

Our Vision
Our slogan has always read: "providing the Scoop on Adventures in Odyssey, one cone at a time." That's exactly what we do, say, and teach at The Odyssey Scoop.

What We Believe
The Odyssey Scoop wouldn't be running if we didn't believe in the Adventures in Odyssey brand. During its 20+ years of successful radio drama, videos, books, action figures, and much more, AIO has personally impacted us at The Odyssey Scoop. Having grown up on Adventures in Odyssey, we understand completely that it is a program worth standing behind and pushing forward. We have also seen that the fan-base for AIO has become larger over the years, and a fan-base so large is looking for information on their favorite radio drama. The Odyssey Scoop seeks to do just that.

About Adventures in Odyssey
Over the past 20 years, the Adventures in Odyssey team has been home to over two dozen writers, producers, and sound designers. They hail from all corners of the U.S. (and Canada), and their résumés are as diverse as their origins: some come from a radio background, some from stage or screen, others from music studios and television, and a few straight out of college. Although they don't have a common background, one thing the team has always shared is a passion for entertaining stories that reveal timeless truths.

We also strongly believe (and this is the most important part of everything we do) that Adventures in Odyssey has blessed countless people who do not know Jesus Christ as their personal Savior. It has also been a strong mentor to Christians since its beginnings. Radio drama can be a very good way to shine a light on what Christianity is all about. In fact, so many people have received Christ as Savior because of Adventures in Odyssey. That makes it all worth it! If The Odyssey Scoop can help one person gain interest in the program, and ultimately, a relationship with Jesus Christ, we've done what we set out to accomplish.
