New Information about Album 74 and Beyond

A few storylines from 28 Hours will be continued in the future, but multi part stories like 28 Hours won’t be happening in the next few albums. Jason and Jillian don’t even appear in album 74, so there is no continuation of the story in this upcoming album. The Odyssey team hasn’t even decided when the Chairman will return again but “It should be fewer than 20 years until we see him again.”

In other news, episode 1000 is being talked about, but there is no information about it now. The Odyssey team hopes to have an announcement this fall or winter about it.

Eugene “will be addressed, though it may not be as soon as listeners are expecting”. This is very interesting. I wonder if they do have a plan to send him off, but it won’t be for a little while it look like. I’m not sure what Eugene is doing in Album 74 though, we’ll just have to wait and see.

Let me know your thoughts on all this information in the comments!

Album Art for Album 74 Revealed

The album art for Album 74 has been revealed!

It is titled “Buckle Up!” which is very interesting. I don’t like how much it sounds like Buckles though. It will air on Spring of 2023, and December 15 on the club. Eugene is in the cover art which is very odd. I’m not sure what they’re going to do with him. I really hope that they don’t replace Will Ryan, but who knows. The Jules art feels off to me, and Connie looks like a teenager to me, but it’s not a big deal. Renee and Horus will both be making their debut in this album. There is a story about a scientific breakthrough that involves the imagination station that Renee and presumably Horus will be involved in. There is another story focusing on Olivia’s spiritual journey, one about Buck and Jules having their friendship endangered, and one about Morrie and Suzu *gag* trying to make new friends. I wish they were going in a different direction with this but whatever, I’ve lost all hope for Morrie and Suzu a while ago. One more story about Wooton facing a courtroom struggle against an old friend. I’m curious if it will actually be a old character returning but I can’t think of any candidates off the top of my head.

I have some other information about what’s coming in the future that I will be sharing soon! I would like to hear your thoughts on all of this new information in the comments!

Two Episode Titles From Album 74

Two episode titles from the upcoming album 74 are “Renee Renewed” Which will be the first episode not in a club episode with Renee in it, and “Value in the Process” Which will apparently be a Rydell episode. Apparently this has been known for a few months already but I’m behind on the news.

I’m looking forward to seeing how they handle Renee’s introduction to the main albums. I’m not too excited about anything having to do with Morrie, so we’ll see how that goes. I was hoping Album 74 would be an extension of 28 Hours, but it doesn’t look that way. I hope they at least put some episodes in about it similar to the start of Novacom where they put a couple of Novacom episodes here and there, but not a full album dedicated to it.

Rydell #10 Title and More…

Hey guys! I just got an email from Nathan himself, and he gives some information about te Rydell saga.

There will definitely be followup to them (revelations) – and I believe some of the followups will answer very legitimate questions that people have raised about the conclusion.

Nathan Hoobler

This is very exiting. I’m intrigued to see whats to come

The next episode in the story is titled “Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off” and it’s included in album 70. In fact, we just recorded the episode last week. It features Emily, Morrie, and Suzu – and a few other unexpected characters.

“Let’s Call the Whole Thing Off” huh? This is very interesting. I’ll get back to you guys once I have more theories.

“Badges of Honor” Review

Welcome to, I think the first (or one of the first) reviews of my blog! I need to do more of these, as it gives more content to put out there for you guys! Please tell me what you think of this episode!

Starting off, Olivia and Zoe are doing some medical practice. I really like how while Olivia is talking, Zoe keeps saying things like “My head’s still bleeding” and “Aaannd, I just died”. I’d say the acting in this scene is really…good… (only I would make a Morrie pun in an episode that has nothing to do with him) I have to say though, the Marcy’s giggling in the background was really disturbing. In the next scene there isn’t really anything to say. The next scene has the girls decorating (or trying to) the cake. I feel like the acting was a little more poor than the first scene, but overall it was solid. The next scene I don’t have much to say. They jump to the conclusion that the Marcy’s sabotaged their frosting (which I’ll get to later). The only other thing I’ll say about this scene is that I loved when Buck said “Fishing is a quiet activity” when the girls were being noisy. The next scene, and they assumed it was the Marcy’s that sabotaged their boat. Again, I’ll get to that later. The next scene they are taking care of Sparky (the dog) and loose him. I feel like the acting in this scene was less notable. After that, nothing really of note I have to say other than Buck’s acting was good. The next scene Sparky gets hit. The acting was good again, but not the best. I feel so bad for Sparky! I feel really bad for Buck as well. Then, Whit reveals the Marcy’s did sabotage the boat and cake. The thing I was talking about before was that Olivia and Zoe jumped to conclusions. Even though they were right in the end, they shouldn’t of blamed anyone. Anyways, Sparky is fine, but his leg was amputated.

That’s pretty much it! Please tell me if I need to work or improve anything in the future! I hope to review more in the future! Also tell me in the comments if you liked this episode or review! I would probably give it a 4/5 or 4.5/5. I also want to get a good rating system soon. Thanks for reading, and have a great day!

The Rydell Saga, Unveiled

Introduction

Long have we wondered about the deeds of Morrie Rydell. Long have we waited to know his evil plans. What if I told you he doesn’t have any. What if I told you he was good… Please check out https://aioaudionews.com/2020/07/30/extra-what-if-morrie-was-right/ to hear Lee talk about this bombshell. It is a huge bombshell. We thought we knew everything about Morrie. We thought we got him all figured out, but we don’t. Everything we thought the past 4 years might be false. That’s what this post is about. This post is unraveling everything about Morrie in a new light. This subject is very interesting, so bear with me through my discussion about the illusive character known as Morrie…

Morrie is the good guy. We are the bad guys

Since 2016, fans have speculating on this new kid called Morrie Rydell. Our instincts screamed “Bad Guy” from the moment he came on the show. Why? His villain monologue from the Writers Ruse for instance. “I have to admit. They were good. It was a risk to show them a page of my playbook like that, but it was worth it to see if they could keep up with me. And, of course, they couldn’t. No one could. I shouldn’t of expected that anyone would be that good. Not in this town.” By that, isn’t it obvious that he’s the bad guy? On the official podcast, Phil stated that the plan for Morrie was changed. That could of happened after the Writers Ruse. I we go off of that basis, there is still a chance for him to be the good guy. Like Morrie said, he’s trying to bring out the good in people. Isn’t that good? Why would a bad guy do that? In the title I said we are the bad guys. Why? For judging Morrie. Emily judged him as well. We came to the conclusion that he was bad, and so did Emily. We came to that conclusion, maybe because the way he talks, or somethings he did, but what are his real intentions?

Morrie and Suzu aren’t perfect

By no means am I stating they are perfect. Suzu steals things, and Morrie hacked into a computer to help her! The escape room wasn’t the best idea, to make them think they were going to die! Whit knew about this all along, and he played along with it. He allowed the escape room to happen without telling Emily his concerns prior. Like Whit said in part 3, “I should of stepped in sooner”. But isn’t what Morrie and Suzu did good? Emily learned valuable lessons from the incidents. What I’m trying to say is that Morrie and Suzu aren’t perfect. They still need to be punished.

What is the proper punishment?

Like I just stated, they need to be punished, but what is the proper punishment? Jail? Or is it something more minor? Take the escape room for instance. Whit says, “You’ve trespassed, tamped with property, held people captive, and broken a few other laws I’m sure.” Does this mean jail? Ohio state law says the punishment for a felony is jail. But Whit knew about it the whole time! Like I said, he played along with it. So is jail the punishment? Non the less, they still need to be punished in some way.

What should Emily’s response be to this?

After all the events that have happened, Emily has been left kind of messed up. Should she be thanking Morrie and Suzu or not? On one hand, Morrie did hold Emily captive, but on the other hand, he did give Emily valuable lessons from it. He did bring out the good in people. In my opinion, Emily should forgive them, but they should know that some of the things they did were wrong.

Conclusion

What do you guys think about this? Please tell me if there is anything I missed, or any holes in what I said. I want more discussion on this subject, so if you could, reblog or share this post, and Lee’s. Please tell me your thoughts in the comments. I’ll leave you guys with this. You know the picture for album 69? It depicts Morrie taking off his “good” mask if you will, and showing his evil side. What if I told you this. Morrie is putting on the good mask. We have all misjudged Morrie Rydell. We all thought he was bad, but he wasn’t all along.

Search for a Sunflower

“Search for a sunflower ” Will be an episode written by Abigail Geiger, and will release in 2021. From what can be seen on the script, it says “Connie and Penny are setting up for the…” . The episode involves Don Polehaus, Connie Kendall, and Penny Bassett. My theory is that a painting called “The sunflower” goes missing. That’s where Polehaus comes in. Thanks to Carl and Jay Smouse for finding what some of the words say. Anyways, I hope to be posting more often!

oops. Wrong image
There we go!
