Re: Album 57: A Call to Something More

What if the old friend is, dare I say... Bernard? He's an old friend, and more importantly, the official Odyssey Storyteller. What if? Also, I really don't like this idea of the Odyssey Club. Why would I pay fifteen dollars a month for streaming when 1. I own almost every episode anyway, and 2. Wit...

Re: Dreaming of Odyssey

Funny you bring it up. Last night I had a dream that they had a new voice for Bart Rathbone again, and I was sitting there trying to decide if it was better or worse that the first replacement attempt. It was odd. Like Leonard said, I often can spit out Odyssey trivia in my dreams, and I'm usually r...

Re: The Jack and Jason Years

For me, there's just something about Jack that I really admire. As much as I like Whit, I feel like if I had the option of knowing one of them, I'd really be intrigued to get to know Jack. He seems so real, and his convictions are very solid. I know Whit has all of this too, but in some ways it's so...

The Jack and Jason Years

I'm listening through the entire series chronologically right now, and my next episode is "The Search For Whit". I love Paul as Whit, and I'm excited to have Whit back again, but it seems that every time I get to this point in the series I feel a bit of sadness knowing that the Jack and Ja...

Re: Books mentioned in Odyssey

In "Memories of Jerry" Connie mentions she is looking for

"Mere Christianity" by C.S. Lewis

And in the same episode Jason finds

"The Terminus Factor" by Seth Kryrick. (Not a real book)

Re: Album 57: A Call to Something More

You can't be moving when the program is running. All evidence suggests that the Imagination Station induces a sort of dream-paralysis, so any movement would be impossible. If you were really moving inside a room, than you'd hit the walls almost immediately, assuming they're not the size of football...

Re: Album 57: A Call to Something More

One thing that gets me about the new station, is that it sounds sort of freaky. Somehow they are up walking around through doors, while also in this imaginary trance state? Sounds dangerous. At least before it seemed like some kind of computer game, or dream state or something. Now it's like they ar...

Re: Has the Soda Shop Board Officially replaced thetoo?

Okay. I may have been a bit strong. I shouldn't say we're 'dead'. And it is a long off season for AIO. AND I haven't actually spent more than 10 minutes over on their site. I was just really surprised how many new topics are continually posted, verses the not so many here lately (At least in Whit's ...

Has the Soda Shop Board Officially replaced thetoo?

So today, I finally made my way over to the Soda Shop, and suddenly realized why this place is so dead lately. I then proceeded to make an account over there. Anyone else feel as though that site has taken over?

The Call of A Bully: A Rodney Rathbone Novel

Has anyone seen these books before? Clearly they are not Odyssey, but the fact that the character is named Rodney Rathbone, and bully is in the title is a pretty odd coincidence. (I should make a poll to see how many people just questioned my use of coincidence, with Whit and Jack both not believing...

Bring Back Bernard...

Okay, so this topic has totally been beat to death, but hey, lets look at it again anyway. In both Album 55 and 56, I felt they did a great job of writing out some of our old favorite characters, without being a turn-off for new listeners. Naturally, I think the next character on the list to deserve...

Re: Life without Eugene?

Actually this leads me to wonder, is André younger than Will Ryan? If so, that is jus weird to think about. Significantly so. Andre is only slightly older than Townsend Coleman. See, I used to think that was the case, but according to Wikipedia, Andre is 68. Am I crazy, or did it used to say that h...

Re: Life without Eugene?

<t>I really really really hope they never replace Connie or Eugene. When their actors leave or retire, those characters, however sad it may be, need to be gone from Odyssey. They've been played by the same actors for so long, it would almost be a shame to replace them. Replacing Whit is necessity. J...

Re: 718: For Three Dollars More

Oh, and one final thing! Am I the only one who thought that the pastor of Barrett and Matthew's church sounded a whole lot like Paul Herlinger? There were a couple of scenes that started off with him talking, and I was shocked when it sounded so much like the old Mr. Whittaker. I was thinking, why ...

Did Whit have a broken engagement with a non Christian too? I didn't know about that. Is it possible you're thinking of Jack and Emily, mentioned in "A Question About Tasha"? No, Jack actually married Emily - he didn't break off the engagement. :) Oh yeah. Whoops. Didn't think that throug...
