In this podventure, we discuss the episode “The Silver Streak,” in which Tracy’s prized model train car goes missing. Lucky for us, Curt is on the case! The prime suspect is Michelle, the new girl at Whit’s End and Tracy’s rival for the state fair train competition. Did she really sabotage Tracy’s chances to have her train displayed at the fair, or was it an unfortunate accident? Also, a blue caboose, the private eyeball, and sociopathy.
In this podventure, we discuss the episode “The Big Broadcast,” in which Tom (for some reason?) rediscovers the old Kids’ Radio equipment and leads the charge to get the station back on the air. The first broadcast has a vintage flare that isn’t shared by future Kids’ Radio episodes, but we enjoy it while it lasts. Also, a general blessing upon creativity, a discussion about The Good SamMaritan, and a lot of fun with sound effects.
In this podventure, we discuss the episode “Two Sides to Every Story,” in which Donna and Jimmy, after being left home alone during the Barclay parent date night, recount their own versions of the events which transpired leading to the fire truck parked in their driveway. Also, unreliable narrators, a satisfying sound effect, the importance of perspective-taking, and metaphorical frameworks for ranking Odyssey episodes.
Welcome to another Album Art Review, in which we discuss the original cover art on the album we just finished. In this review, we cover art from many episodes in this album, but mostly Curious, Isn’t It?, The Winning Edge, and Castles & Cauldrons. You can follow along with photos from our reddit (sadly, Emilee misplaced the album and could not locate it in time to take pictures, so internet images shall have to suffice until such a time as album 8 reappears).
Tatjana if you are reading this don’t think I didn’t notice on my editing pass what you slipped in there about Bernard. I may have missed it during actual recording but I did not miss it the second time around. You know what you said.
In this podventure, we discuss the episode “All’s Well With Boswell,” in which Robyn's first babysitting job turns out to be a catsitting job, and it all goes downhill from there. A broken figurine, a spilled food bag, an escaped cat, an accidental trip to Connellsville, a fortuitous return... yet it manages to be one of our least favorite episodes of all time!Also, soap opera analysis, too many ethics questions to choose from, and 10,000 different rewrites.
We've got two updates for you! (Don't worry, it's not a hiatus announcement.)
First, we're going to be guests on another Adventures in Odyssey podcast, called Your Fellow Odyssians! Second, Emilee is going to the Odyssey One Grand Show event, and wants to know what your questions are for the cast, as they will be pooling questions from the audience. Polls are very limited, so if you have specific question ideas, please email us at [email protected].
In this podventure, we discuss the episode "The Winning Edge," in which the Stingrays find a new coach in Bart Rathbone. What could possibly go wrong? Tracy and Robyn, best friends turned rivals, face off against one another in the girl's softball league, one the star pitcher and the other the star hitter. However, Tracy may have gotten a little too carried away with her sense of competition. Also, Eau de Bart, compliment toast, and winning the trolley problem.
In this podventure, we discuss the episode “Castles and Cauldrons, Part 2,” in which Jimmy’s cousin Len continues to drag Jimmy down the dark path of dubiousness that is their shared fantasy “game.” Will Jimmy give up his scruples in order to appease his abusive cousin? Does Len have the demonic power to control cats? Will they summon a literal demon together using a blood ritual in the woods? Are these questions you ever thought you would have to ask yourself about an episode of Adventures in Odyssey? Tune in to find out! Also, RPG escapades, setting boundaries, and some sincere life affirmations.
In this podventure, we discuss the episode “Castles and Cauldrons, Part 1,” in which Jimmy’s cousin Len introduces Jimmy to the wonderful(?) world of Castles and Cauldrons, a game(?) loosely based on an idea of a concept of a rumor of what Dungeons and Dragons might be like in an alternate universe. (We’ll let the inaccuracies go eventually.) Len insists it’s just a game, but Whit senses that spiritual warfare is afoot as Len constantly pushes Jimmy beyond his comfort zone and into darker and more uncomfortable imaginative territory. Also, a little education on the subject of actual TTRPGs (Table Top Role-Playing Games), discussions of cults, bullying, nerd culture, and our own lengthy experiences with roleplaying games.
Content Warning: Discussions of child trafficking and abuse
In this podventure, we discuss the episode “Missing Person,” in which Rodney Rathbone runs away from home, Isaac learns a lesson about loving your enemies, and we ask why this episode isn’t more entertaining. What, did you think this was going to be a prodigal son allegory? Incorrect.
Also, all bad guys have R names and all good guys have J names, the goody two-shoes parade, Isaac the counselor, and self-aware Rodney.
