Tom Riley and his horses

Whit's wiping down the counter, Connie's mopping the floor, and the kids are sipping on their milkshakes. If you want to talk about Adventures in Odyssey the radio drama, this is the spot to do just that!

Tom Riley and his horses

Post by Jimmy Barclay Fan »

I am sure this has been noticed before, not sure if it has been discussed here, but did yall ever notice Tom Riley's horses names ??

Rachel and Leah- Two Sisters in the Bible, both married to Jacob
Little Joe- Rachel's son was Joseph. This may also be a reference to Bonanza and Michael Landon's character


Also, this is on AIO Wiki, I love how in A Matter of Obedience, so many references to Tom Sawyer. Tom, Becky, Mrs. Sawyer

I am a big fan of AIO, but I am not Jave Griffin or have ever been on AIO. I am just a huge fan of AIO and Jimmy Barclay. I love Odyssey, and Jimmy rules.

Also, when they first appear in "The Nemesis", Whit is petting Rachel, and Leah whinnies, and Whit says "Woah now, Leah, not getting jealous now?" Or something like that. You get the idea.

Eugene-"Well, the sequence of events occured with extreme rapidity, but I shall attempt to recall them. I was powering my two-wheeler along this concrete pathway, when your personnage suddenly appeared directly in front of me blocking my course. My reflexes immediately sprang to life in an attempt to navigate an evasive manouveur around you while still maintaining course and speed, but I evidently over-compensated, and my Schwinn careened off the hardened path, taking me with it, and up-ended us both in this shrub, a Rhododendron of the heath family I believe, deducing from the leathery evergreen leaves, as distinguished from the deciduous Azalea, which as we all know is..."
Isaac-"You mean, you crashed into this bush cause I got in your way."
Eugene-"Well, that of course is another way of expressing it." Isaac the Benevolent

yes, I had noticed that. AIO is great for "inside" jokes. It is what makes listeniing to the episodes over and over again so fun. Every now and then I catch something subtle that I did not catch before.
