Hi Odyssey fans, I'm Jesse, editor of Focus on the Family Clubhouse Magazine.

And I'm Bob, senior editor with Plugged In. Welcome to the official Adventures in Odyssey

podcast.

Well Bob, it's hard to believe, but we've come to the end of album 55, The Deep End.

Or would that be the bottom?

Either way, it was a very full album, Jesse. We saw Jason and London spent time with Eugene

and Katrina, heard the story of Sergeant York, and even witnessed a little humanity in

Jason Smouse.

You know, but I don't think any of the episodes had as much going on as a finale, something

old, something new.

Yeah, this episode finally put to rest the longstanding fan question about Connie and Mitch.

And Jesse, I know this is a moment a lot of people thought would never have.

We thought that we should wrap things up with Kathy Buchanan, the writer who created Mitch

and who wrote this episode.

Well, let's hear from Kathy now.

Kathy, thanks for being on the podcast with us today.

Oh, and excited to be here.

It's always fun when I hear a particularly well written relational show, and then I hear

your name at the end of it, I think that's why it was Kathy, because you're a fine writer,

but also because a woman's perspective sometimes can really round things out nicely.

Well, thanks, and there's not much of a woman's perspective on the side of the team right

now.
