Joseph here, I have no idea why I was being so cagey about the name of the robot comic book I've been reading. It's called Atomic Robo and it's great. Anyway, we're back on schedule this week, and we're back with our sweet, sassy, real microphones and high quality sound. Enjoy our nonsense in the highest fidelity we have!https://www.atomic-robo.com/atomicroboCast:CJ voiced by: CJElliot voiced by: ElliotJoseph voiced by: JosephFollow us @backseatauthors on Bluesky and InstagramContact us at

Judge Judy Got Involved: Animorphs Book 41

Backseat Authors ·

2025/12/08

So between last episode and this, Elliot got sick, CJ had to go on a work trip, and Joseph was just kind of vibing. It may sound like CJ recorded his audio in a hotel room on his phone and that's because he did! We were committed to getting an episode out this week! There was also a wonky audio problem for a few minutes toward the end, but luckily we were able to splice in a redundant OBS recording. Plan for problems!Cast:CJ voiced by: CJElliot voiced by: ElliotJoseph voiced by: JosephFollow us

CJ unintentionally made it sound like Cassie shot a cheetah in this book but that didn’t happen. Elliot also doesn’t think that middle-schoolers can read Hamlet. Joseph thinks this book had a message.

Joseph did not get a dragon :(We play a long game early on in this episode. If you want to skip it, we pick the book back up at around the 34 minute mark. Sorry about the ad, Elliot kind of just wanted to see if Joseph would read it. Joseph does not agree with a single thing in it and was mainly curious if he could read it in one take.Ygor:https://www.youtube.com/shorts/FX4WrEbrkSsCast:CJ voiced by: CJElliot voiced by: ElliotJoseph voiced by: JosephFollow us @backseatauthors on Bluesky and
