Unofficial Podcast Ep. 45

07.12.08. Exactly one month until I leave for Colorado Springs and the excitement continues to escalate! In this podcast, I speak with producer Marshal Younger to talk about Kidsboro, the future of Odyssey, and the live show. Only five weeks to go until the birthday bash, so guarantee your seats now while they're still available! In other news, our brand new logo makes it debut today... if you'd like to update the artwork for the rest of our podcasts, you can do so by downloading the newest logo here.

Two Surprises!

Okay, I admit it... I lied when I said I had "a special surprise." Truth be told, I have two surprises! The first surprise pertains to the design of our podcast.

As you know, the Official Podcast has its own logo. Pretty simple stuff...



Way back when the Unofficial Podcast started, I had a fellow Odyssey fan create our current podcast logo. It was great for the first year, but then I started thinking about getting something new and fresh. But I didn't have the creativity or photoshop skills to design anything with which I'd be satisfied. Well... not too long ago, Jacob Isom of the Odyssey Scoop kindly offered to create a new look for the Unofficial Podcast. You'll see the product of his efforts next weekend!

Now for the second surprise.

Over the last month or so, several of you have asked when Sarah and I will be reviewing Kidsboro. That's probably not going to happen. However, I recently had the opportunity of speaking of writer Marshal Younger about Kidsboro. We talked about Kidsboro, the Official Guide, and the upcoming live event! Remember that survey I asked you guys to do a little while ago? I was able to ask some of those questions you had for Marshal! This is another podcast you won't want to miss. Come back next Saturday to listen and download!

Oh, and a belated happy July 4th to all our American listeners. I hear you guys had a holiday down there? ;)

"Kidsboro I" Available!

I suppose this season of Adventures in Odyssey technically isn't over, since we still have a special three-part series called Kidsboro. Written by Marshal Younger, Kidsboro is the only town run by kids. It's also based off the book series, two of which have been released already!




Out now-- The Battle for Control

The Wait is Almost Over!

It's almost been two months since the last episode aired and I'm getting restless. Perhaps the most highly anticipated season of all-time will finally commence when A Capsule Comes to Town in less than three weeks! In case you haven't noticed, there's been an extreme deficiency in podcasts this year...

Wait, we haven't released one yet?

Whoops.

Anyhow, to whet your appetite, I'll be posting our latest interview with Nathan Hoobler and Marshall younger tomorrow. In it, we discuss episodes from the past season as well as things to look out for in the upcoming season! You won't want to miss this exclusive preview!

Well, you could, but then you'd have to wait another two weeks to hear anything new about the 50th season. That wouldn't be fun now, would it?

Check back this Saturday afternoon for the podcast!

Only Two More Days!

Well, folks, the spring season of Odyssey is still forty days away, but Nathan and Marshal have graciously agreed to talk with us in less than a week's time! Which means you have less than two days to submit your probing questions for the two writers/directors! Send them in to our inbox at aiofanpodcast@hotmail.com or post them over at the Town of Odyssey!

In the meanwhile, I have new album cover art that I should've posted a while ago but never got around to doing it. I guess that's what happens when you go on vacation for three weeks. ;)



Album 33 has been repackaged and I'd say this redone version is a significant improvement over the original cover. Let me know if you agree or disagree. Back cover art is not yet available, but I'll post it as soon as it is released!

"A second time! It happened a second time!"

Yes, folks, it's happening again! Sarah and I will be speaking with Nathan Hoobler and Marshal Younger to talk about the past several seasons as well as the upcoming season of Adventures in Odyssey. Have a question that you've been dying to ask the writers? Then start sending them to aiofanpodcast@hotmail.com or you can post it over at the Town of Odyssey. Please keep questions pertinent to the most recent seasons (within the past couple years, preferably) and the upcoming season. Questions are due by Monday, January 21st @ 9:30 pm ET. We'll have the interview available in early February!
