by Will Ryan and Katie Leigh

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

Oh good, seems the audio company let them do the voices after all! For obvious reasons, getting someone else to play these beloved, professional voice actors would be ridiculous.

The Oddcast did a review for the book, then we interviewed Katie and Will about it (as well as other things) in August, where they first talked about the plans to make this audiobook! Check them out!

Obviously a lot of audio books aren't read by the authors, but in the case of it being about voice actors that would be hilariously bad if they had someone else do it.

In our interview with them, they kept on making this running joke about the gruelling audition process they were conducting to find the right voices to do the audiobook.
