It's Odyssey time! We talk in-depth about AIO album 63 "Up in the Air" in today's show. We discuss the highs and lows of this album, share our favorite moments, and muse about why none of us are overly thrilled about the character of Buddy. Roy is hosting remotely from northwestern Arizona, but he still manages to bring a newscast. We react to feedback from Noah, Sarah Grace, and Amber which sparks more AIO talk. And finally, we share the trailer for Darby Kern's upcoming new audio drama The Jake Muller Adventures.

Probably the most well-known poem by Walt Whitman, "O Captain! My Captain!" is a moving metaphor for President Abraham Lincoln's leadership of the country during the Civil War and his assassination which shocked the nation. This poem is actually only one of a handful that Whitman wrote in honor of Lincoln, whom he greatly admired. "O Captain" was written in 1865 shortly after the death of the President and was published later the same year in a small booklet containing a collection of 18 of Whitman's poems.

The Giant Killer is a fantastic allegorical audio drama from Lamplighter Theatre and we are happy to review it in this episode. The team did a bang-up job on this production. Roy also delivers a newscast and we address some feedback from Lee and Angie. Lee's question sparks a fun AIO tangent. And to top off the show, we all share what we've been listening to lately.

Mary Leapor was a young poet born into Britain's working class. She died at the young age of 24 and therefore her body of work is not very large, but it contains some lengthy pieces which are quite respected and have received much acclaim to this day. Published posthumously in 1748, "The Crucifixion and Resurrection. An Ode." is a beautiful and vivid depiction of Christ's death, burial, and resurrection. Leapor recounts this event in her signature style and the poem's first three stanzas seem to focus on the effect Jesus' death had on the natural world and then in the second half she shifts to show what His resurrection means to humanity.

An interview and a review in one episode! Today we review Heirloom Audio's Captain Bayley's Heir and then we're joined by sound designer, Rob Jorgensen, to talk about the work he did on this audio drama. We chat about some of the musical elements Rob worked on, binaural audio, finding an item on Craigslist that was "sound effects gold", and a whole lot more. We also have some interesting audio drama tidbits, some feedback from Angela, Michael, and Amber. And Roy kicks things off with a newscast.

The poem "Eldorado" was first published in 1849 in the Boston-based periodical, The Flag of Our Union, a publication which also printed works from Louisa May Alcott. Incidentally, this poem was published just a little over five months before Edgar Allan Poe would meet his untimely–and still unexplained–death. Poe is, of course, known for his melancholy and dark writings and although there are some gray undertones in "Eldorado", they are far less overt than those in many of his other pieces. The text of the poem has been set to music in its entirety as well as adapted into song by many musical acts over the years.

Today we dive into a review of Jonathan Park: The Dreamer's Tomb. This is the first collection of 12 episodes released since the restructuring of the Jonathan Park team. In addition to the review, we also have lots of great audio drama tidbits, Roy has a packed newscast, and we have some feedback from Amber, Darby, and Noah. And thanks to Lee for reading the credits in this episode.

Nestled gently beneath the boughs of ancient oaks, so small that it is often overlooked on most maps depicting the vast forest of Elderwood, lies the tiny squirrel village of Springsgrow. Most would find it a quiet and pleasant place to live out one’s years. Most would be content to do exactly that. But for a young squirrel named Chester Brushwood the idea of living a life of such tranquil predictableness is a terrifying prospect. After all, with a world as vast and mysterious as Elderwood before his paws, how can a creature ignore the chance at such wondrous adventures that are so sure to be had? There must be some evil to root out, some voracious dragon waiting to be slain, some distant land in need of a hero to take up a legendary sword and shield? To be a hero. Yes..... But what does it truly mean to be a hero?
