Is David's father the kind of parent to attend PTA meetings? Should the Animorphs be incorporating more cute dogs into their morph rotation? Is any population more Yeerkable than kindergartners?

KA Works in Mysterious Ways (Book 20)

10/29/2025
Marco flirts with everyone at school and meets a totally unremarkable boy named David. Should T’shrondra be our new Animorph instead of David? Will Erek King only show up for mission briefs from now on or will we eventually get another Chee book? Has Rachel not learned anything about bursting through windows after her close call in Book 16?

Minisode: Nothlited Skrit (featuring special guest CJ!)

10/15/2025
Longtime listener and mailbag mainstay CJ discusses us to wrap Book 19! We discuss Cassie as a controversial character in the fandom, whether you can get nothlited as a skrit and then regain your morph powers as a na, and what we can expect in the coming years as we venture out of the Golden Era of Animorphs books into the spooky-scary era of ghostwritten books.

A Caterpillar Named Forever (Book 19)

10/8/2025
Cassie makes the ultimate sacrifice. Then she comes back. Who is Cassie proving something to in this book: to herself, to the other Animorphs, to the Yeerks? Why wouldn't the Yeerks just re-infest Karen once Aftran frees her? Are Controllers a kind of flesh mech? Does Jake spend the time between each book just journaling about his fellow Animorphs?

Two Yeerks, One Ear (Book 19)

10/1/2025
Cassie gets Yeerked. Aftran delivers an ultimatum. Whose plan was the Yeerking of the Unibank President: the methodical Visser 1, the theatrical Visser 3, or the zany but mysterious Visser 2? Does having Visser One as his mother mean that Marco is a nepo baby? And even if he is, wouldn't he be a wonderful Sub-Visser? Just think of the uniforms he could implement with the Yeerk budget! Have we ever seen Visser 3 morph into a creature smaller than a Yeerk? Support the show Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/anidorks @anidorkspod on twitter!

If Yeerks Had Fur (Book 19)

9/16/2025
Cassie and Karen argue about ethics until a leopard attacks. Marco saves the day. How does Cassie explain all of her torn morphing leotards to her parents given how often she is ripping off strips of material in order to help others? What the hell are we supposed to do with Karen’s truly unhinged line that “slavery is a human concept” and how would that line read to a child? Did Karen's Yeerk, Aftran, ever have a rebellious phase as a teenager? Do Yeerks get annoyed by their hosts’ intrusive thoughts?

Hawks Ride Thermals to Hawthorne Heights (Book 19)

9/10/2025
Enter: leopard!!! Cassie thinks about clubbing a child. Just where did Yeerks find all of this ambition? Are lazer pointers to cats what dracon beams are to leopards? Is Cassie truly considering killing Karen? What would Marco or Rachel do if they were in Cassie’s situation? Does Eddy do anything between recording sessions except imagine episode titles?

Butch Cassie & the Aftran Kid (Book 19)

9/3/2025
Cassie quits the Animorphs. The rest of the gang stages an unsuccessful intervention. Karen tries to pet a bear. Did the other Animorphs overreact to Cassie's big news? Is this the most violent main series book we've read yet, even if most of the violence is imagined? How are the Animorphs not getting alien flesh stuck in their teeth all the time?

Much Chadoo About Nothing (Hork-Bajir Chronicles)

7/30/2025
Or, The Unbearable Anda-Liteness of Being Esplin is spared. Dak and Aldrea have each other— for now. Why do Aldrea and Dak seem unable to imagine being together as different species? Is Hork-Bajir Chronicles just Grease? Is every coincidence in this series always also a possible Ellimist intervention? How does Dak feel about the fact that Aldrea's Hork-Bajir form is just his friend Delf? And seriously— what the hell is Visser 3’s whole deal? Next week (Wed, Aug 6th) we're off!

Esplin gets a promotion. Dak and Aldrea uncover Alloran's plan. Why is the world building in this book more satisfying than in the main series books? Why is the Arn's plan to foil the Yeerk attempts at Arn infestation to basically turn themselves into fainting goats? How does Visser 3 compare to Power Rangers’ Ivan Ooze?

Scruffy-Looking Tree Herders (Hork-Bajir Chronicles)

7/16/2025
Dak and Aldrea build an army of monsters, then Hork-Bajir. Quatzhinnikon reveals all in his PowerPoint. Esplin knocks over a tree phone to build a big pool. Is this scene of the Hork-Bajir squashing the Yeerks the most upsetting act of violence described in the series yet? If Aldrea is the Rachel of this book, does that make Dak more of a Tobias or a Cassie? Why does Quatzhinnikon seem so eager to reveal the whole backstory of the Arn despite his initial protests?
