Story Time

It's another check-in on our lives and boy are there updates! A wedding, a surgery, and some anime for some reason all this week!

It's time to deal with the aftermath of getting blasted back to the late cretaceous period and causing a mass extinction event! David is back with more Animorphs and Cassie is dealing with some pretty heavy feelings. But will that matter when her biggest secret is in jeopardy? Come on as Michael finds himself a little too caught up in this week's story! Also shout out to Lotan for putting together...

The boys are back and it's time for more absolutely bonkers fairy tales! Michael thinks at least one of these stories rings particularly true for David, but we'll see! 

Hang on to your shoes, because this one is wild! David is back with the next chapter in Animorphs, and the kids are in for quite a TIME. Non-stop action with a healthy dose of war trauma awaits, a tale as old as...time?

We're feeling back to our normal selves this week, and to celebrate Michael has brought a long-requested story- Cinderella! Find out what it takes to get one over you evil step mother, how to avoid the authorities, and ultimately that piety is key...we think?

The boys are back and finally get to talk to each other! David mourns a recent loss, Michael wants to see a Captain Planet movie, and both vaguely know some stuff.

We're back to the tough and war-torn 90s as David returns with the next installment in K.A. Applegate's Animorphs series. Join our favorite Andalite Ax as he struggles with his identity and loyalties, trust issues, and psychic frogs! Plus, freaking crazy space stuff!

It's a new year and the boys are back! Michael has quite the surprise for David today with a brand new (occasional) show format! Join us as the show itself becomes the story, as David is whisked through chapter after chapter of our own Table of Contents. And oh yeah... it's our 150th episode so have some cake or something for us!

The boys are back and ready for more insane and morally questionable alien wars! A surprise weapon forces a decision on the ethics of warfare, and Michael is on fire with his predictions! Plus "celebrity" appearances!

We're back! After an accidental two weeks off, Michael brings more old fairy tales as promised! Learn the value of makings friends (or killing horses), the dangers of soup, and the divinity of tailors, all this week!

Dial up those modems and check you IMs, because it's time for our shapeshifting heroes to learn about the dangers of the internet! When a website has some true information about the Yeerks, the kids have no choice but to investigate. Plus: Michael invites David to Thanksgiving, and that question WILL BE ANSWERED.

Promises were made and promises are kept on this week's Story Time! Michael takes us once again to vague 1800s Germany thanks to our favorite Brothers Grimm, with a duo of great tales. One may be very familiar to many, the other probably not so much. 

It's time to go swimming with the fishes this week, as David brings the next saltwater powered shape-shifting sci-fi in Animorphs! Visser One is back and working on a secret, and that means the secret might be out for Marco. What could the Yeerks be doing under the waves? Find out here!

It's time for more fairy tales as Michael has a trio of delights for us this week! Learn how not to run an inn, how not to drink water, and how definitely not to jump out of a tower!

Time to put your conspiracy caps on! The kids find out about something weird happening out in the desert by a mysterious military base. Get ready for more horse-play than you thought you could handle! 

The Grimm Brothers are back and...well they're back. Michael brings three stories for David that each have their own issues, but nonetheless lessons abound. Learn not to racistly stereotype, not to pick flowers for family, and how befriend a wolf!

It's back to the island as Eric Zipper joins in from the other room to continue our mysterious journey through Lost. Hygiene tips abound, we talk Post-Apocalyptic Christian novels, and Zipper comes around to S Club 7. Will the podcast survive Google trying to be their uninvited producer? Find out this week!

We're back with an oversized episode for an oversized story! Let's go back to the past to learn about a mysterious race know as the Hork-Bajir, an outcast's daughter, a kind dreamer, and evil ambition personified! This one's got action, drama, romance, and of course...crazy f***ing monsters!

Hang on to your fins, because the conclusion of Hans Christian Andersen's The Little Mermaid is here! Get ready to take female autonomy many, MANY steps backwards...for LOVE (I think). Plus, an early form of Mersplaining!

Do we have a whale of a tale for you! Actually, there aren't really many whales in it, but it's in the ocean. Well, it's mostly in the ocean... aw heck it's the original Hans Christian Andersen story of The Little Mermaid and it's... not exactly the was you might remember. Get your sea legs ready for a saltwater story packed to the gills with...long descriptions.

This one's for the birds! We're back with the next installment of K.A. Applegate's Animorphs series, and big things are happening! Something strange is going on with Tobias but before he can figure it out the gang finds themselves in the middle of a daring escape and chase! Plus, a special shoutout to a loyal fan!

No one asked for it but we still delivered... it's time for more Hans Christian Andersen short tales! Michael has prepared three... technically stories for David's absolute disappointment. But who knows, maybe he'll learn a lesson, especially if a particular fable is just for him!

Order your room service and get ready for the big time, because we're back with more of K.A. Applegate's Animorphs! Learn the importance of listening to your body while also not learning the difference between Alligators and Crocodiles, and remember: never meet your idols!

Good God, it's time for more Brothers Grimm fairy tales, and by God is it ever always about God. Michael brings the next two coincidentally very religiously inspired fairy tales for David's (and our) collective judgement. Bad parenting abounds in this week's episode!

We're finally back on mystery island! Eric Zipper joins us again as we continue on to the exact halfway point of the show. Join us for time travel shenanigans, we say goodbye to a war criminal, and to top it all off we get a van! What fortune!
