2026/01/12

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
