I'm just curious to see who has been listening to AIO the longest. I've been listening for about four or five years.

My brother started lissening to it just after it startet. Later I was born. I guess I could say that i've been listening to Odyssey since I was born. (about 14 years)

I was introduced to the show by my aunt Bonnie when she bought me, my sister, and brother each our very own album. That was in 1993. My first episode was "The Ill Gotten Deed". To tell you the truth, I thought it was very boring, and I didn't understand who Whit was yet. After I finished the album I remember me and my brother talking about how good Odyssey is. Obviously I had a lot to learn about the characters over the years... and now it's part of my lifestyle.

The first episode I remember listening to was 'The treasure of Lamonde.' I was always puzzled because I thought Robin and Connie were sisters who lived in the same house. I'm not sure where I got that impression, but since I wasn't very old then people get something stuck in their head.

I remember my mom calling me into the kitchen, and hearing Dr Dobb's say ".... A radio drama we are testing to see how well it will be received..." (or something to that effect)

later "... due to the overwhelming response, mostly positive, we are launching this series on its own..." (or something to that effect)

And I was hooked from the first broadcast....

My first real memory of AIO is when I was 3, but my mom tells me i've been listening since I was born.
