Re: Movies

Ah, yes, the movies topic has been revived! \:D/ In recent years, I’ve been becoming more interested in film, something I’ve started researching for fun. It’s an interesting area. Although there’s a lot of movies I have not seen, I do keep up with what’s currently being released and what movies are...

Re: Glasses

I have alway worn glasses since I was little I and I don't mind them probably because i think I look younger without them. I don't think I would want to wear contact lenses, because I'd be afraid of poking my eyes with them. The only time I don't wear glasses is when I'm sleeping, out of curiosity ...

That show looks really fun from the clips I've seen. Unfortunately, after it ended, the owners replaced Phil Vischer and Mike Nawrocki as the voices of Bob and Larry. :( Here's what Phil said on twitter: https://twitter.com/philvischer/status/1526645940198719489?lang=en I tried listening to an episo...

Re: Favourite Adventures in Odyssey Book

I've only read two (well, three if Adventures in Oddity counts) I used to have The Stranger's Message and The Case of The Mysterious Message. I don't remember the plot of the Stranger's Message, but Whit looks kinda like Mark Twain on the cover and the stranger looks sorta like a neighbor of mine. I...

Re: What cars do Odyssey people drive?

Well, there's what they would drive, what they'd wish to drive, and what they're confirmed to drive. I'm mostly going for the first with my list. There's also the timeless yet dated nature of AiO. We haven't seen a lot of the characters since around 2008 in our time. This makes me personally think a...

ProtoMitch!

I was listening to some early episodes the other day and stumbled upon Connie's perfect husband! Robert aka "ProtoMitch" from Go Ye Therefore. Here are 11 reasons (that's right, you get one extra) why ProtoMitch is perfect for Connie: 1: He has no last name. This way Connie can remain Conn...

Re: Official AIO Comic Strip!

I like the one-page gag comics, but agree that it's not the ideal way for AiO to introduce storylines involving long absent characters. The current storyline is really fast paced, seeming kinda rushed and it's a little confusing sometimes. It does feel more like fan-fiction than an official Odyssey ...

#949 Dead of Night

I haven’t been active on the forums for a while because I started my first job a couple months ago, but at least my work is usually something I can do while listening to something. So, I finally gave in and subscribed to the club. Here’s my thoughts on 28 Hours so far. I listened to 1-4 back to back...

Re: AIO Quote Game

"Ryan's right, it's not a big deal. I'm wearing the socks!"

Edited August 6th. Originally, I didn't want to make the quote too easy so I left out the character that was mentioned. I looked at it again today and realized that made it way too hard. Sorry.

Re: Will Ryan Has Passed Away

Thanks, Bananareader. While faith doesn't necessarily mean Alan Young was a christian, it is comforting to have a hint that he might have been. Time makes it easier when it was someone you weren't personally close to, but when an actor passes away, it's hard not to worry about the real people behind...

I was looking for some christian rock to listen to and found this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFe4ZTpWLAg It wasn't the sort of rock I like, but the way it was sung reminded me of Cryin' Bryan Dern's "What is he saying?" contest. The first line sounds like he's saying, "Wrong Cha...

Re: Sir Buddy's Snowy Day

I didn't like this one the first time I heard it years ago (idk why) but I thought it was pretty good when I heard it today. The narration was great. Although it referenced Snow Day, it still felt like it's own episode. I think it would be fun to create a theory about metal trash can lids being myst...

Re: As Buck Would Have It, Parts 1-3

It's been about a week since I've heard it, but I really liked part 3. Definitely didn't see the twist with Buck's cousin. That was a twist done right. Crime does seem to run deep in Buck's family. I think "The Oliver Crime Family" would be a great name for mobsters in a corny gangster mov...

Re: 930: Judge Me Tender

Here's my thoughts too. I liked the concept of the episode, Bridget finding a friend in Jules, but not it's execution. I strongly dislike the new character of Kristen because she feels like a parody of some of Odyssey's audience. I'm not saying their target demographic is necessarily the sheltered h...
