What Christian kid from the 90’s/00’s hasn’t listened to, or at the very least, known about Adventures in Odyssey? For all you badies who missed it, Adventures in Odyssey is an Evangelical radio drama/comedy created and produced by Focus on the Family. To date, over 900 episodes of Odyssey have aired across the globe, and spin-off products include books, cartoons, computer games, music albums, and of course, TONS of merchandise. At one point, Chic-Fil-A even included Adventures in Odyssey cassette tapes in their kids meals. To say it’s a popular program is… an understatement, to say the least!

Our guest this week is voice actor and activist David Griffin, who voiced a character named Jimmy Barclay, as well as several others. Beginning in his preteen years, David worked with Adventures in Odyssey for over a decade, and appears on 80+ episodes of the show. He absolutely loved voice acting, but his time with Odyssey coincided with his burgeoning struggles with mental health, and subsequent disenchantment with Christianity. Join us as he discusses the good, the bad, and the ugly aspects of being a young person working on a huge faith-based radio program!
