Rat F*** Island (Book 22)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/04/01

David tries to humiliate Rachel in a Taco Bell. Then the gang dunks on him in the abandoned construction site. Is there another character the Animorphs could recruit in David's place? Why does Jake struggle so much to address the moment after trapping David in rat morph? Is this really David's final appearance in the series? Why doesn't morphing treat a Yeerk like an infection and expel it from a Controller's body? And who is coming to dinner? Support the show Support us on Patreon: htt...

Don't Look, I'm Resetting My Morph Cycle (Book 22)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/03/25

Rachel shows up for her sister while David lurks. Saddler miraculously recovers— or does he? What the hell did David do with Saddler? What the hell was Jake's father thinking when he compared his hospitalized nephew to raw meat? What the hell was KA Applegate thinking when devised this book? Is violence really what Rachel is addicted to, or is it adrenaline? And is one person's description another's descrippy-ippy?

One Person's Phalanx is Another Person's Conga Line...

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/03/18

The Great Yeerking is cancelled. David returns as an orca and exposes Rachel to her friends. What does success look like for the raid on the Marriott-- destroying the Marriott, getting the conference cancelled? When the kids morph into animals, and are able to experience animal instincts, does that mean that the morph holds both the human consciousness and the animal consciousness? And if so, is morphing for combat sort of cruel to the morphed animal? How do we even begin to talk about ...

A Tiger Playing Chicken with Death (Book 22)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/03/11

Tobias returns. Rachel jams a fork into David's ear. What is David's longterm plan, if he even has one? Where did Tobias go between losing David and rescuing Rachel? Are middle children always the most talented, or is that only the case with Taylor in the band Hanson? Is Rachel's ease with using violent a problem, or does it make complete sense given that the world always seems out to get her?

Darko Marco (Book 22)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/03/05

David picks the Animorphs off one by one. Or does he? Marco is in the closet. Does Rachel referencing South Park give us a clue to when this book takes place? Would the police really call an exotic animal vet upon finding a wounded tiger? When Rachel privately thought-speaks to Marco in his bedroom, why does she reach David, disguised as Marco, and not the real Marco trapped in the closet? (After all, the Animorphs have previously contacted each other via thought-speak without being abl...

Hella Bad Vibes (Book 21)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/02/17

Jake, Ax, and Tobias stake out the barn. David breaks bad. Did David really kill Tobias, or did David just kill another hawk to mess with Jake's head?? Would the Ellimist even allow David to kill Tobias?! Doesn't everyone suck the ketchup out of those single-serve packets? When is David just a scared kid behaving terribly, and when is he a opportunistic little worm? Who would be the Animorphs' designated "executioner": Rachel because of her capacity for violence, or Ax because of his ex...

Sloppy Yeerk Pool Fun (Book 21)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/02/11

The kids learn to tie a tie. Visser 3 goes big. Marco slithers. Can we count on the ghostwriters to pay off this storyline of Cassie becoming more and more comfortable with violence? Can weak Andalite arms even do uppies? Does Visser 3 have too much time on his hands? Do human Controllers carry pistols as well as dracon beams? Should Visser 3 and Dealin' Dan just kiss?

Flaw in the Flea Flan (Book 21)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/02/04

Cassie nearly dies and then talks Marco down from being stuck as a giant flea. David the Lion behaves badly beneath a fancy table. Something something force field enforced holograms. How sanitary are Yeerk pools if they're always exposed to the open air? We’ve already seen Rachel the bat fall into one in a cave and now there's one beneath a gaping hole in a roof! Is saying "bite me" to someone antagonistic or flirtatious? How is anyone in the fandom so critical of Cassie when she has a...

Daddy Often Eepy (Book 21)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/01/21

The gang bites Jake. David just wants to watch tv. How would Tobias narrate David’s violence against birds? Why is this book sort of like watching the Rugrats crawl into a cannon? Has David even seen Tobias in his human form? How do we balance David's genuinely terrible situation with the fact that he's kind of an asshole? Where is Ax?!

The Axhibitionist in Me (Book 21)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2026/01/14

The gang gets ray-gunned by a man in Ray-Bans. David goes missing. Is the David trilogy the prestige tv of the Animorphs series? Why do these book feature so much falling? Is holding hands more or less intimate than locking arms? And who the hell is cousin Saddler? Support the show Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/anidorks @anidorkspod on twitter!

Ellimist Speed-Dial (Mail Bag)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/12/10

We empty out the mailbag and discover emails from all the way back in May, giving us a chance to revisit the dinosaurs of MegaMorphs 2 and the ethical quandaries of Book 19. Plus, we bring in the most special guest of all, the Ellimist! What dinosaur morphs do we all wish that we could have seen in MegaMorphs 2? How would Visser 3 do on an episode of Undercover Boss? Could someone die of natural causes if they morphed into an elderly animal? And were the Ani Cool Kids too hard on Aftran? ...

Please Don't Talk About My Underbelly Hatch (Book 20)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/11/26

Yeerk stealth technology returns. David freaks out. How do you fire an Animorph? What is a locker but a kind of closet? Why is Marco so preoccupied with transitions and the moment when one thing becomes another? Did David wet the bed at Marco's house? What are the ingredients of a Slim Jim?

The Yeerks of Being a Wallflower (Book 20)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/11/19

The Animorphs learn the importance of having on-boarding procedures in place before making your first hire. Who is the war-daddiest of all war daddies? Is David’s reaction to the news of the Yeerk invasion actually kind of normal? Are Apple products the secret weapon that the Animorphs need? Is an Animorph handshake ever just an Animorph handshake?

Escafil Me Up! (Book 20)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/11/13

The Animorphs and the Yeerks have a house party in David's bedroom. The kids debate whether David should join the team. Can someone become a nothlit mid-morph? 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? And when Visser 3 morphs into a human, does he have his own morph jumpsuit, or is he just... naked? Support the show Support us on Patr...

Spy-Stomping the Spy-Floor (Book 20)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/11/05

The kids bungle their first attempt to burgle the Escafil Device. Marco becomes Spawn. Is David Boy-Rachel? Are the Animorphs fundamentally different from David as people they acquired their powers in Book 1? What does David naming his cobra Spawn tell us about him as a character, and how bad is it own a cobra? And is Marco really as ditzy as he seems this book, or is he just looking for more excuses to hang out with Ax? Support the show Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/an...

KA Works in Mysterious Ways (Book 20)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/10/29

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? Does "the dark triad" refer to a theory of personality types or the cloaked polycule living next to Chris? And wait— this obnoxious little boy is t...

Minisode: Nothlited Skrit (featuring special guest CJ!)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/10/15

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)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/10/08

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? Red or blue?! Support the show Support us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/anidorks @anidorkspod on twitter! Send questions to anidorksp...

Two Yeerks, One Ear (Book 19)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/10/01

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 P...

If Yeerks Had Fur (Book 19)

Anidorks: An Animorphs Podcast!! ·

2025/09/16

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’ intr...
