In the last couple years, a new frontier has opened up in the culture of Odd Fellowship: music. There has always been music by, for, and about Odd Fellows, but a new group of creators is using the tools of artificial intelligence to create songs for the Order. Ainslie, Toby, and Meredith talk to Amanda Robinson, PGM of Minnesota, Tommy Howe of Palacky Lodge #630 of Illinois, and Mike Duminiak, DGM of West Virginia and past co-host of the Three Links Odd Cast. What follows is a wide-ranging conversation about the emerging new culture of Odd Fellowship and how new music is contributing to that. The Shoutout goes to Crescent Encampment #14 of Alberta for performing the Patriarchal Degrees for seven new Patriarchs at the Montana Grand Lodge Session with the assistance of PSGM Calabrese. In the Odd Podge, Mike previews his upcoming episode of "Odd Fellows Today" and his new books; Ainslie promotes the impending Odd Market; Toby gives thanks to PGM Laurel Delony for a ride to the auto parts store; Tommy talks about his "pretend" band; and Meredith teases a possible future show with the new lodge in Pennsylvania.
