Hey, I’m John Tuttle III. I’m a big fan of Adventures in Odyssey and I am fairly active in the fan community. I have guest hosted on Adventures into Odyssey , AIO Audio News and over the summer, Jay Smouse of Adventures in Opinions asked me to be his cohost on his new podcast. Additionally, I do some writing on The Stilleto’s blog AIO Writer’s Block . The post are mostly either criticism of Jillian Marshall or satire articles about Adventures in Odyssey. Mel asked to interview me for her blog, and I’m not sure how interesting this will be, but here I am.
Hey guys! As you can see, I’m interviewing John Tuttle III. So, let’s get into it!
When was the first time you started listening to AIO?
I don’t remember a time when I wasn’t listening to Odyssey. So close to all of my life, though I became a bigger fan back in around 2015 when my grandparents gifted my siblings and me the AIO Club.
What made you want to write on a blog?
Probably just my dislike for Jillian.
Haha, good point.
Have you ever had a crush on a character or actor from AIO?
I liked Mandy Straussberg when I was younger.
What’s your favorite episode(s) ?
I can’t pick just one episode. The entirety of the Novacom Saga is my favorite series on Adventures in Odyssey. The music, the action, the great storyline, it’s so good!
I completely agree with you. The Novacom saga is one of the best series.
If you could change something from AIO what would you change? And what do you want for the future of Odyssey?
Delete Jillian. Send away the Rydells. Those are my top 2. For the future of Odyssey, I would like to see Eugene have a fitting send off that is way better than Tom’s in Let’s Put on a Show. I would also like to see strong characters and good, interesting storylines.
Someone else I had interviewed had said that she would like to see Whit ‘s character better, since the writing has changed so much.
What’s your opinion on this?
I agree. I think Whit was severely lacking in his leadership role during the Rydell episodes.
Agreed.
What is your favorite and most hated aio characters?
My favorite characters are Eugene, Bernard, and Mitch. Eugene because he is intelligent and funny. Bernard because of his hilarious one-liners and wisdom, and Mitch because, well, he’s Mitch. My least favorite characters are Jillian and Morrie. Jillian because she is annoyed and immature, and Morrie because he is manipulative and evil.
What villain would you like to see come back?
I would love to see a storyline involving the Chairman due to his ominous exit in (coincidentally enough) the episode Exit. I think they could do some really cool stuff bringing back Novacom in this Era, however I doubt they will since it’s been almost 20 years since the end of Novacom.
I think most of us aio fans would love to see that happen.
Here’s the last question, What do you want to see more from Odyssey?
I would like to see more episode like Unrelatable that have good writing, good characters, and an interesting storyline. I also really enjoyed the Olivia faith arc and would like more episodes like those. Lastly, I am looking forward to hear the episodes that were already recorded with Will Ryan before he passed away in November.
Any last words for my readers?
If anyone knows Seth Dillon, Kyle Mann, or Ethan Nicolle, tell them to hire me.
