Everyone longs to make their mark on this world. Like Jimmy Stewart's character, George Bailey in one of my favorite films, it's a wonderful life.

Larry, I know what I'm going to do tomorrow and the next day and next year and a year after that, I'm shaking the dust of this crummy little town off my feet and I'm going to see the world.

The imagination station is a big part of the storyline in many of the episodes.

And today's broadcast will demonstrate the importance of having a good imagination.

Right. And if you aren't familiar with Adventures in Odyssey or maybe you've been a long time fan but just happened to listen lately,
