The Official Site Updates
I trust that you all had a good
Thanksgiving. I definitely went through my last Thanksgiving
here at PCC and am extremely excited to be home for Thanksgiving
next year. I've missed it almost more than anything else.
A few things have been happening
with the Official Site
this week. If you have not yet checked out the online demo
version of the
Answer That! AIO Edition, it's up for your
viewing
here. If you don't own the game yet, it's a good way to
preview the game before you buy. Also, the site has released two
new answers to commonly asked questions by fans. Check them out
here.

Official Podcast #56
Today
I'm excited to let you know that the 56th
Official Podcast
has been released. However, this time it's their second video
podcast!
See Whit Dance. Enjoy the
stirring and silly stories of
families who attended the live
show. Watch a live-action
‘Adventures in Odyssey’ video
demo and lots more!
This is certainly a podcast you
won't want to miss! I'm excited
to see Whit dance myself.
Somehow I don't think it'll be
quite what we're expecting, but
watch it anyway!

Episode Schedules
Today I took care of some of the
site's housekeeping and added the airing schedules for both December 2008 and January 2009. Not only
that, you can now take a sneak peek at what's coming up on the
weekends up through mid-April! If you're one who likes to keep
up with what's coming up on the radio, you'll certainly want to
refer to our Schedule in future days.
In other news, the Odyssey Scoop's
anniversary is coming up in just a little over a month. Time
sure flies!

On This Day in History...
Before
this site was wildly popular, there was a time when the site
went through its beginning stages. During those beginning
stages, I had just begin to learn more about creating websites
and decided to go with a black background throughout the site.
And November 10, 2001 was the official release date. I hyped it
up a bit and got the fans I knew who actually cared about the
site to share the excitement. It's amazing to see how much the
site has changed since then. More features have been added and
I'm glad there are more of you visiting! What's it been? Seven
years since that day in history? Wow. Thanks for being a part of
the Odyssey Scoop! Oh yeah, and if you'd like to read a little
more on the creation of the site,

read an AIO FAQ question about it.

latest
poll if you haven't already!

Run Down
Nothing much seems to be happening
this week. I guess everyone is distracted or drained from
everything that happened with election week. I'm feeling pretty
drained myself. With five weeks of school left, there's still so
many art projects I need to get done and so little time! A
couple of my easier classes are starting to get to that
long-awaited wrap-up point in the semester. The senior level
classes are going to run me ragged until the very last minute.
My Advertising Design class is especially demanding as all the
design projects are culminating into one heavily-graded
advertising campaign presentation at the very end. If you're in
college and you're getting tired of your classes, then I'm sure
you can relate. If you're not, please sigh with relief.
Meanwhile, I'm going to go get a cup of coffee... hot pot style.

Official Podcast #55
The
Official Podcast
has released its 55th episode today! The producers of Adventures in Odyssey discuss the release date of the live
episode recently recorded in August. Also they'll talk about
whether or not we have new characters coming to the show.
Also, the
Official Site has released
information about an upcoming release, Adventures in Odyssey
Live! You guess it. The live episode from August will be
released in May 2009! Keep your ears tuned!
And if you haven't made it out to
the polls yet, today's the day! Turn off your internet
connection and get out there. (Yes, I'm encouraging you to leave
this site today... but come back in the future!)

Things to Know
Has it really been a week since I updated? I'm sorry everyone if
you were checking back every day for an update. Things are
extremely busy as I'm constantly preparing some sort of art
project, whether it be a design project or calligraphy project
for my classes. Basically, I never want to take four art classes
at the same again! It's too intense!
If you're wondering what's going
on "out there," it may interest you that the
Unofficial Podcast
has released their 48th installment. Also, if you're keeping up
with the Ceiling Fan
Podcast, six episodes are now available for download. And each
one is a real treat!
