AIO Facebook wrote:Actor Andre Robinson appears in this adventure (set in the Congo) as Dr. Leslie's young friend Patrice. Club members will also get to hear Andre this fall in a wondrous episode titled "Walter's Flying Bus."

AIO Facebook wrote:Two of Dr. Leslie's antagonists in this tale are Captain Reynoud (wacky Richard Cansino) and Mobutu (Leon Morenzie).

AIO Facebook wrote:I hope you're ready for another awesome day of recording voice tracks for the Odyssey Adventure Club. The real action won't get rolling for a couple of hours, but with so much happening yesterday, I forgot to give you a closer look at the actors who voice Whit's parents in "The
Journal of John Avery Whittaker." Here, Ben Bode gets last-minute instructions as Harold Whittaker. Moms to come . . .

AIO Facebook wrote:Jennifer Taylor Lawrence voices Whit's Scottish mum, Janneth, who contracts a fatal illness when Whit is just a boy.

Enjoy!

They re-cast Matthew AGAIN!?!?

Woody wrote:They re-cast Matthew AGAIN!?!?

Yeupperdo. Couldn't tell you why on earth, though.

Are you kidding?!! I am seriously maybe done with AIO. After 60. Because I want to hear 60.

Jennifer TAYLOR Lawrence. I guess she had to have her middle name in there so people can tell the difference… xD

And Matthew rECAST AGAIN I WAS JUST GETTING USED TO HIS NEW VOICE

Who knows guys , maybe this Matthew will have that awesome voice ya all are looking for.

Allow for some hope.

I don't want hope. I want endless pessimism and negativity.

Great pictures! Thank you for sharing, Kay. I appreciate it. I no have no FB.

*sighhh* smh

Did anybody else catch the fact that we will get to hear and meet Whit's biological mother? Such a momentous episode is enough to make even me consider getting the OAC for a month!

I wonder how they can fit so much about Whit's past in one single episode. I'm getting really tired of so many recasts. I hope Justin Felbinger is a good Zach Callison sound alike.

Yay! Momentous is a perfect word for that episode, OJ. Not only that, if you guys haven't heard... I'm glad I have OAC. Seriously, they're really making non-Oacers suffer. Curse you, club.

I don't mind the recast. Hopefully this Matthew will sound like Matthew in terms of personality rather than sounding like a gravelly, half asleep version of Matthew's voice.

Well, they've brought back Harlow Doyle, so it wouldn't surprise me if they brought him back, too.

I just wish they would release the Club episodes on a hard copy, even if it required membership for purchase. I love the feeling of owning the hard disks, which made the appearance of the OAC so tragic for me. But, yes, with my love for Jack Allen, combined with my delight in Whit's past, makes this an especial amount of salt in the wound.

I wish I had OAC. I hear about it, and feel like I'm really missing something...

Connie G. wrote:I wish I had OAC. I hear about it, and feel like I'm really missing something...

Ditto.

I still can't believe that they have recast Mathew again!!!!! I think that Gunnar Seizmore was definitely too young to play Mathew in Album 58. Hopefully, this new actor sounds more like Zack did before he left; in 5th or 6th grade.

I know this topic hasn't been active for a while, but none of these episodes have been released yet, so I figured that they are still up for discussion. Am I the only one who is more excited for Un-Tech the Halls than the other two ones? I guess I just like the 'every day' episodes more than the 'specials' sometimes.

Yeah, that one does sound pretty interesting

I hope it's not aother giving stuff up episode. A simplifying Christmas episode could be fun...

Yah, definately. I think AIO does an amazing job with Christmas episodes. I think I can honestly say that I love every single one of them.
