David Hilder from the AIO Update makes his first appearance on the podcast! He joins Austin for an in-depth look at the Passages novels and audio dramas. The two discuss their favorite/least favorite books, give mini-reviews of the audio episodes, theorize how the series could be revived, and, of course, talk about whether or not Marus is real.

It's time to talk about more Paws and Tales! In this episode, Austin and Michael review episode 14 (The Great Go-Cart Race) and episode 16 (Hold the Anchovies). You'll hear their discussion about the physics of out of control washtubs, cherry pie vs. peach cobbler, whether or not Gooz was being mean-spirited, and more!

No more laughing! At least, not while listening to another Try Not to Laugh challenge. Can you make it all the way through without even chuckling at these funny AIO moments?

Extra kudos to you if you can remember which episodes all these clips are from!

Austin & Michael are reviewing Paws and Tales again! This time, episode 10 (The Lighthouse) and episode 11 (A Race Against Time) are under the microscope. There's a lot to talk about when it comes to the Good Samaritan, canned wings, and false dilemmas. Along the way, you'll find discussion of Adventures in Odyssey (guess which saga) and Down Gilead Lane that will make things more interesting

Austin shares some deleted audio from an upcoming episode of Beyond AIO. In it, Austin and Michael LaFaver discuss another audio drama called Down Gilead Lane. This was recorded while Michael was listening to the series for the first time. It was also a precursor to a DGL review podcast that he would start later.

It's roundtable discussion time! Josh Rodriguez joins Austin for the first time on Odyssey Geek, along with longtime guest host Michael LaFaver, to talk about some controversial subjects. Are modern episodes better or worse than older episodes? How does our different entry points to Adventures in Odyssey reflect our opinions? How does the AIO Club alter fans' perceptions? It's your chance to hear the experiences from three different people who first listened to Odyssey during three different eras.
