How long have you been a fan of Adventures in Odyssey?

When I was about, I don't know, 7 or something, someone from the States sent me 2 or 3 sets of AIO and I LOVED them!   I listened to them over and over.  When we left Australia for America we gave them away...along with most of our belongings.  Fortunately, it was on the radio in America so I kept listening.  Once we got here to New Zealand, someone gave me some more sets and it is on the Christian Radio Station here.  To make a long story short, about 8-9 years.

 

What is your favorite episode of all time?

I love so many!!!! It's so hard to choose.  I suppose my most favorite would have to be A Name Not A Number 1&2.  I also like the whole Novacom Saga and the resulting episodes of that.

 

What is your favorite AIO web site?

This one is great! The Official Whit's End Site is good too, it's just not updated enough.

 

If you could meet one actor, who would you meet and why? 

I'm not sure, one of the younger actors.  Maybe Brandon who plays Jared or the actor who plays Mandy, I can't remember her name.

 

Which character do you resemble the most and why?

I'm not sure, maybe a mixture of a couple of them.  A bit of Connie definitely, and maybe Mandy or someone.  I put my foot in my mouth a lot like Connie!

 

Who is your favorite character and why?

My favorite character.  That's a hard one!  I like Mandy, Alex, Jared, Whit, and a whole bunch of others!!!!  It's too hard to choose.

 

In your opinion, what do I need to change about my website?

I think it's pretty good as it is. Of course there is always room for improvement, but at the moment I can't think of anything.

 

If you could change anything about AIO, what would it be and why? 

I think it's good how it is.  I know a lot of people don't like the latest episodes as well as the old stuff, but I really like what they're coming up with these days.  I guess part of that is because I like mystery and stuff, and just because I like the themes and seeing people grow up and move on.  It would be fun to see some of the old characters come back on again...older, but all in all I like it.

 

How do you imagine Whit's End and the town of Odyssey?

I imagine it in several different ways.  Every time I listen it's different, but also the same, if that makes any sense.  It also depends on the setting of the story.

 

If you had your own AIO site, what would you put on it?

I guess I would put a lot of what the sites already have.  Pictures of the actors, a couple games maybe, reviews, a section to ask questions about the shows, past shows (to listen to, if you can actually do that) stuff like that.

 

What is your favorite section of whitsend.org?

Wonderworld is good, but isn't updated nearly enough.  Kids Radio is also good.

 

What is your favorite section of the Odyssey Scoop, my site? 

That's a hard one...all of it!!!  Pictures of the actors is good, some of them look just as you would imagine.  Contests are really good and so are reviews, yours and the fans.
