Much Chadoo About Nothing (Hork-Bajir Chronicles)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/07/30

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 of...

OnlyFan(dalite)s (Hork Bajir Chronicles)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/07/23

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? What the hell do you mean that Z-space shifted? Support the show Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/anidorks @anidorkspod on twitter! Send questions to ani...

Scruffy-Looking Tree Herders (Hork-Bajir Chronicles)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/07/16

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? Support th...

Yarn of the Arn (Hork-Bajir Chronicles)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/07/09

Introducing: the Arn! Esplin discovers his love for method acting. Aldrea asks to speak to the Arn's manager. Was Aldrea the first “unlikable” narrator for many young readers— or at least the first narrator who behaved in such unlikable ways? Is Dak really the first Hork-Bajir to make it through the blue mists of the Arn's Zone, or are the Arn just pushing the others into planet's fiery core? How is the interspecies relationship between Tobias and Rachel similar and different to the rel...

Revolutionary Girl Aldrea (Hork-Bajir Chronicles)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/07/04

Aldrea loses everything. Dak Hamee faces an impossible choice. Esplin experiences some back trouble. Why does Seerow get all of the blame for what happened with the Yeerks? What does the Andalite response to what happened on the Hork-Bajir planet tell us about how the Andalites will respond to the Yeerk invasion of Earth? Why didn’t Seerow encrypt his messages back to the Andalite home planet? Who among us hasn’t plunged into Father Deep? Support the show Support us on Patreon: https://...

Big Yeerk, Small Pool (Hork-Bajir Chronicles)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/06/25

Enter: Esplin!!! Aldrea becomes ChaDude— err, Chadoo. Dak goes tree-sliding. Chris introduces us to the transfixing sounds of the Speaking Tree. Does Esplin want to get with an Andalite, or does he want to be an Andalite? How do Yeerks manage to form an organized queue in the Yeerk pool among all of their cavorting colleagues? Why don’t the Andalites touch their own Untouched Wilds before they start screwing up other planets? Support the show Support us on Patreon: https://www.pa...

Unnamed Andalite Woman (Hork-Bajir Chronicles)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/06/18

Wer're finally talking about Hork-Bajir Chronicles! Aldrea the Andalite meets Dak the Hork-Bajir. Tobias takes the day off. Seerow screws everything up. Sure, this book has valley depths concealed by a strange, blue fog, but is there anything more mysterious in this novel than Aldrea's mother being born without a name? Why has no one told us about cloud artists before now? Is there anything more gross than how the Andalites talk about intelligence? And how did Miranda and Chris just rea...

An Occurence at Owl Creek Pool (Megamorphs 2)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/06/04

The kids wade in the ocean, watching the world end. Then they go home to watch TV. Does KA Applegate know where this series is going or is she making it up as she goes? Why do Ax and Tobias both always seem to possess mysterious knowledge to which the other Animorphs (and the readers) don't have access? Ax always about the broader universe, while Tobias seems to gained a cynical, almost adult wisdom through becoming a Nothlit. How bad does Chris want to see two T-Rexes make out? And ser...

Crustacean Christian Side Hug (Megamorphs 2)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/05/28

The Animorphs encounter the Mercora, a lovable, crablike people attempting to build a home on Earth, and immediately become conscripted into someone else's war. What does the introduction of the Mercora tell us about the series' stance on nonviolence? Is Cassie doomed to be hardened to violence and harming others over the course of this series? Is Tobias inevitably going to become an Alloran type, willing to sacrifice the well-being of the few for the needs of the many? Are the Mercora...

Sunday in the Jurassic Park with George (Megamorphs 2)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/05/21

The Animorphs continue their dinosaur journey!! We meet a an alien race of ant-like beings, the Nesk. Dino-Tobias hunts human Rachel. Jake morphs into a T-Rex while inside the throat of a T-Rex. Why does KA Applegate hate ants so much? Could the Nesk have possibly learned English that quickly? Did eating T-Rex meat upset Jake’s tummy? The Nesk fly pyramidal spacecrafts-- are those pyramids with sharp corners or smooth corners? And how did Miranda possibly manage to edit around all of Ed...

OG Blue Prince (Megamorphs 2)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/05/14

The Animorphs get nuked back in time to the Age of Dinosaurs. Rachel and Tobias get eaten. Cassie rolls a nat 20 on a survival check. How will Tobias deal with being attracted to humans in the body of a hawk? Are CheesePuffs good? Who taught Eddy about vore? What's with that volcano? Is there anything to the fact multiple characters in this book are rescued by external manifestations of themselves?

Animorphs Apocrypha (Mailbag)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/04/23

*Heads up!! We will be off next Wed, April 30th and plan to begin releasing MegaMorphs 2 (not Book 19!) on Wed, May 7th.* The AniCool Kids went together to see an immersive theater performance and now they can’t stop imagining what an Animorphs immersive theater experience might be like. Escape from the Yeerk Pool? A simulation of a morph gone wrong? A day in the life of Eileen the Dolphin Trainer?? We read your emails about Books 16 and 17 and discuss: What if Fenestre is just taking little ...

The Andalite We Deserve (Book 18)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/04/09

Book 18 concludes with the reveal of the City of Worms (!!!) and a journey to a Bright Hole. Ax laughs. Do rebellious Andalites ever run away to join the Andalites circus? Should we explore the human instinct to slap a mosquito as a solution to waking coma patients? What is Andalite art like? What are the implications of how Z-space is deployed in this book? If the Andalites have Z-space tech, why the hell are they taking so long? And in the alternate timeline where the Andalites succes...

Now This is What I Call Podcasting!! (Book 18)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/04/02

The Animorphs chomp on some Leerans and are weirded out when they suddenly can read each other’s minds. For once the kids solve their problems through actually just talking about their feelings. When is it appropriate to touch someone’s face without asking? Will we ever meet an Andalite who isn’t a jock? Why haven’t the Animorphs questioned whether the Ellimist is interfering in this book yet? And what might the Animorphs have learned if they uncovered some genuinely juicy secrets durin...

Taxxon in a Pringles Can (Book 18)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/03/26

Ax finds himself more torn than ever between his allegiance to the Animorphs and to his own people. A traitor is revealed aboard the Ascalin and the kids are forced to seek out possibly the most tragic Andalite of all. What might be the translation for the Andalite curse “yaolin”? Why are the Yeerks so determined to take the only landmass on a planet inhabited by a species that lives underwater? Is anyone's backstory in this series as much of a bummer as Prince Galuit?

Deepfake Jake (Book 18)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/03/19

Sometimes you have to close a door to open a window, yes, but sometimes you have to open a window to Hulk-smash out of another. The Animorphs morph into mosquitoes and develop a lust for blood. The kids go to Z-space. Is it rude to ask an Andalite to lift their hoof to reveal what exactly is going on down there? Does Eddy know how to say the word “irreparably”? (Answer: no!!!) Do any of the Anidorks know how to say “Carnegie”? (Our working theory: the pronunciation is a PA thing!)...

Axolatl Avocado (Book 18)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/03/12

Send us a text Ax tries to get a part-time job and fights Visser 3 on top of a McDonalds. Chapman hits a guy with a minivan. Who is Jane Carnegie and where is she?! If every Aristh gets a kafit morph, why is Ax so suspicious that Visser 3 has one? Where we robbed of an entire book of the Animorphs trying to prove that Chapman hit a Secret Service agent with a minivan? And isn’t the roof of a McDonalds the perfect location for a one on one brawl to the death? Support the show Support us ...

The Enemy of My Enemy is a Q-Tip (Minisode)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/03/05

Send us a text We empty the mailbag and take a quiz for babies to test our knowledge of the series so far. How would Ax place the other Animorphs on his MySpace Top 8? Is Eddy being contrarian for the sake of the podcast? And is Cassie a little more comfortable with violence as a solution to the problems that the Animorphs faced than we realized?

2025/02/19

Send us a text The kids humiliate Visser 3. He retaliates by morphing into a very slow porcupine bird with bad eye sight. Has any book in the series come together so well in the ending as this one? Shouldn’t the Yeerks be cleaning all of those dead bats out of the Yeerk pool? Now that George Edelman is free, is he destined to play on the next season of Animorphs Survivor?
