A pattern I noticed in the first 5 episodes of Album 21

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!

A pattern I noticed in the first 5 episodes of Album 21

Post by Woody »

Has anyone else ever noticed this? There's a pattern in the first five episodes of Album 21: Wish You Were Here! The pattern is:
First-Hand Experience
Second Thoughts
Third Degree
It Happened at Four Corners
Fifth House on the Left

That's why when Connie and Joanne went on their road trip, they got a common episode title as well; colours.

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..."

Hey, that would have been a great title! Thanks for sharing that info, Reddo. Oh well. Hindsight is 20/20, right? ;)

Yeah, they did that on purpose. I read that in the Official Guide I think.

:lol: That took me a second. Nice one, Leonard! :highfive:

Yes, the number titles were definitely done on purpose, but it is a great way to tie a little series of episodes like that together.

I was always disappointed that they did not continue that through the whole album. I love symmetry.

It was just for Eugene and Bernard's road trip. Connie and Joanne's road trip does the same thing with colors.

These were the first six episodes I ever listened to.

Yeah, I noticed. Makes sense to me.
