Meant to post this in December, but never got around to it.
The year of 2023 came to an end. It marks the tenth season of Adventures in Odyssey Club exclusive episodes. This year, there were twelve Adventures in Odyssey Club exclusive episodes that were released:

1. “Reporting Live From Mount Sinai”
2. “Dose of Virtual Reality”
3. “The Jacobs Report: Robert Smalls”
4. “Survivor Boy”
5. “The Fast and the Ridiculous”
6. “Mile 151”
7-8. “Precious Lord, Parts 1-2”
9. “Alibis”
10. “Extended Cut”
11. “The Show Must Go On (and On)”
12. “Naughty Or Nice”

There were a few notable episodes this season:

• “Reporting Live From Mount Sainai”, which features a rare instance of an adult using one of Whit’s inventions. Ted Humphries gets to experience travel in the Imagination Station during the time of the Israelites.
• “Alibis”, an episode about the teenagers of Odyssey playing a murder mystery at Whit’s End. More notably, this episode features Ryan Cummings, who has unexpectedly started appearing in episodes again after a long hiatus.
• “Extended Cut”, an episode which brings back the movie that was made about Odyssey in “A Day in the Life”, back in Album 11: It’s Another Fine Day. It drives the main plot of the episode. Quite an unexpected topic to return to the show. It has been 32 years and 815 episodes since “A Day in the Life” has been brought up in Odyssey!

In my opinion, this season was fine. An average season. Like last season, I didn’t find very many episodes in here to be particularly amazing. There were actually a few that I really liked and went back to listen to again for fun. These included “The Fast and the Ridiculous”, “Alibis”, “Naughty or Nice”, and “Mile 151”. I can’t name my favorite from this season: It is a tie between “The Fast and the Ridiculous” and “Alibis”. I think I enjoyed this season better than AIO Club Season 9.

What are your thoughts on the episodes in Season 10 of the Adventures in Odyssey Club? Were they good? Could they have been better? Any particular episodes you could have done without? Let’s discuss!
