Childish Things

"Wooton's absurd personality contributes well to Childish Things, one of funniest Adventures in Odyssey episodes I've heard in a long time. The episode utilizes an absurd premise and goes straight for the jugular, so to speak . . . It makes use of its talented cast and comedic characters such as Jacques Henri (even Whit gets in on the fun), within several well-crafted, comedic scenes."

Unbecoming Jay

"The reason Unbecoming Jay seems to exist is to showcase Whit Hertford's pitch-perfect delivery and comedic timing. "Jay Smouse has become one of our favourite AIO characters", the Odyssey Team tweeted just the other day. Out of all the characters introduced since the show's hiatus, fans have reacted most enthusiastically towards Jay. He's gone from being Vance King's sidekick in Target of the Week to seemingly replacing Vance King altogether."

The Ceiling Fan Launches Season 4

THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 2, 2012

 

Fans of the ever-growing Ceiling Fan Podcast are in for an interesting continuation of an epic series that started with Season 3.

 

When Phil is visited by an old associate, he learns that protecting the ones closest to him may mean facing the dark truth of his past. Are things what they seem? Find out in this dramatic continuation of the M'Kalister Park Saga. Season 4 has begun.

 

An innocent band tour has evolved into a series of unexpected twists and turns as the show's characters find themselves on a confusing adventure. If you're new to The Ceiling Fan, it follows fictional characters Ethan Daniels, Phil Jinkus, and a host of others. The best part is that it's inspired by Adventures in Odyssey. Ethan Daniels, self-proclaimed "biggest Odyssey fan", ironically knows very little about the show he claims to be a die-hard of.

And Then There Were 10,000

MONDAY, JANUARY 30, 2012

 

During the past few weeks, Adventures in Odyssey fans connected with the AIO Facebook page have been trying their hardest to reach the milestone of 10,000 "likes" for the Odyssey team in exchange for the first in an upcoming three-part AIO episode The Labyrinth.

 

Adventures in Odyssey fan Ben Warren via The Changing Times recalls:

"Interestingly, I was one of the dozens of fans who was holding out until the end to be the 10,000th "like". Whether I was or not, I can't be sure, as by the time the page refreshed itself we were at 10,001 fans. And, after I refreshed the page again only a second later, we had made it to 10,009. However, if no one will claim that title, then I most certainly will. ;)"

Needless to say, hundreds of fans of the page shared and tagged Adventures in Odyssey faithfully since the Odyssey team launched "The Great Facebook Challenge" on the Official Site on January 9th (deadline February 1, 2012). Now fans can expect that hard-earned first episode of The Labyrinth. The picture (at right) was shared after the goal had been reached.

 

Having been heavily involved with promoting the challenge to reach 10,000 "likes" (I posted occasional status updates and the image above), I was as excited as the wave of fans who teamed up to make it happen, well, made it happen! That's what I love about Adventures in Odyssey fans. AIO's fan base is so loyal that things get accomplished and the show pushes forward.

 

Of course, if you haven't "liked" AIO on Facebook yet, you're more than welcome to drive up the numbers. Congratulations, Odyssey fans. Be watching in the days ahead for that free episode!

 

Update: The download is now available for U.S. residents here (Download for international fans is coming soon.).

 


 

The Deep End Cover

FRIDAY, JANUARY 27, 2012

 

Jump in the deep end of the pool this March as Adventures in Odyssey's 55th audio collectionThe Deep Endofficial becomes available for digital download. The cover is now available, with the hard copy of the album to be released in May 2012.

 

Jason Whittaker discovers a life-threatening plot in the works after he tracks the villainous Mr. Grote to London. In Odyssey, rumors fly when a wedding brochure is mistaken for an announcement and everyone thinks Connie is getting married. Eugene and Katrina hear unsettling news about their future. And Kids Radio tells the exciting story about how a back-country man with a simple desire for peace winds up on the front lines of World War I. Amidst all of the conflict and comedy, our pals in Odyssey learn that being in over their heads can be a very touching and funny experience when God is put in the center of it all.

New Article: "Soaplessly Undevoted"

MONDAY, JANUARY 23, 2012

 

Back in April 2011, the ABC network decided to pull the plug on its two longest running soap operas, "All my Children" and "One Life to Live", with "One Life to Live" airing its last episode a few days ago. And with the cancellation of the long running "As The World Turns" a year ago, it would seem like the genre is quickly coming to an end... Read full article...

 

We'll be trying to keep up with our Articles in the future and release more than we have in the last couple years. We took some of your suggestions to heart and now you can comment on articles from this point forward. For now, enjoy our new article written by Ben Warren and feel free to comment.

Adventures in Odyssey in Session!

TUESDAY, JANUARY 17, 2012

This week is an exciting week for the Adventures in Odyssey team. The actors are behind their microphones, the producers are with their mixers, and the recording light is on. Oh, and the directors are probably sweating bullets as they try to capture the heart and soul of each episode.

 

Nearly 25 years since the show's inception, Adventures in Odyssey is in full swing and more popular than ever. The team is together this week in Burbank, California to record shows for not-so-distant Album 56 (title yet to be released). The team has graciously posted photos and video on the Adventures in Odyssey Facebook page, along with the title of an upcoming episode written by Marshal Younger: The Bible Network.

 

Visit the official AIO Facebook page and be sure to "like" it. The Odyssey team is campaigning for at least 10,000 likes in order to release a free upcoming episode from Album 55: The Deep End. Can it possibly get any better than this?
