#941: The Honor of Obed-Edom

A little late, but what did everyone think of this episode? I liked that it brought back the Kids' Radio program The Book of Speculations, which, if I'm not mistaken, was last featured in Season 2 of the Adventures in Odyssey Club back in 2015. Before hearing this episode, I had never noticed the br...

Re: #953 Renee Renewed

Here are some of my thoughts: Let it be known to all AIO fans: This episode marks Renee D. Carter finally appearing outside of AIO Club exclusive episodes! \:D/ Her step into the mainstream albums is long overdue. Confession time: I have not listened to any Renee episodes in quite a while, so I did ...

Re: Avery Awards 2022

A little late, but the results were released a while back! I am in shock that Shona Rodman and Robby Bruce didn’t win the awards for best actress/actor! I’m glad that Kelly Stables won best actress, she did an excellent job playing Olivia in these albums. However, it seems as though all the other aw...

Re: Game Night

I’m a little behind, but here are some of my thoughts on this episode: I liked that we have an aftermath episode after all the action from the pervious album. Having Jillian switch back and forth from her clueless personality to her real one was most interesting to hear. I don’t quite know what to t...

945: Knox On Sacrifice

What is everyone's opinion on the latest Club episode? I'll have to listen to it again, but I thought it was pretty good. The first story, featuring Will Ryan, was quite nice and I liked the message. I liked the last story which was told about Whit, Jack Allen and Wilson as kids and the example of s...

Re: A Friend in Need

I enjoyed this episode and thought it was pretty good! I like that we got to see some of Jay’s relationship with his father. Allow me to first give a more negative note, getting into my main complaint: I’m still not a fan of Jay’s obsession with Zoe being shown all the time. His comments and actions...

Re: A clue to what state Odyssey can be in

Ah, yes; Odyssey’s location. A favorite topic among the fans. There have been some discussions on Odyssey’s location here on the Soda Shop as well. This topic and this one are a few of them. Personally, I’m in the camp of Odyssey being somewhere in Ohio. However, this is one of the most intriguing t...

Re: Should Hoobler Airlines be canonical?

Hmm, interesting thought. I do have opinions on the "byte-sized adventures" storylines which the AIO Facebook page has been doing, but that's another topic for another time. When I initially saw the name, I just took it as a new addition to the many fun references that we see made to the O...

Re: Results May Vary

This episode was interesting. It took a different approach than most episodes, not showing anything of the mission trip. The listeners don’t follow the characters on their journey, which is something that is usually done in the Club episodes (such as “Teach A Man”, “Mission: Unaccomplished”, “To The...

Re: The Bookshelf

Still haven't had much time to do any reading since my last post here. But I did recently read the newest book in the Last Chance Detectives book series, Quest for the King's Crown , which I thought was good! It was pretty humorous and had what I thought was a very good plot. Makes me very intereste...

Re: The 18-Yard Line

I thought this episode was nice. I didn’t find it extremely noteworthy, but overall, it was enjoyable. It was good to hear Cooper and Buck interacting again, I enjoyed hearing that. It is indeed sad to have those lines about Eugene being unavailable. This is the first episode affected by Will Ryan’s...

This is most unexpected. I’m very surprised that the AIO Team themselves released the artwork and summary, I can’t recall the last time they did that. But I guess it makes sense. After that whole detailed summary for Album 73 was released on Amazon (it feels like that was a while ago, but it was onl...

The second-to-last episode in album 73.

I’m sure it will be important later, but I feel like there could have been a lot more action in this episode. Again, we are havin...

This episode was interesting. Yeah, I have to agree with ASmouseInTheHouse about this episode being painful to listen to. I had a hard time listening the first time I heard it.
