Episodes

Bisexual Jupiter (The Andalite Chronicles, Prologue-8) 06.07.2026

Hooooooooly smokes y'all. We've been waiting for this one for a WHILE, in a couple ways! We broke release order pretty hard in order to wait until we knew the secret this book spoils, so lets get into one of the wildest books in the series, shall we? Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Getting Outranked By Wesley Crusher, The Skrit-Na Health Plan, and Everyone in Space is Naked! f you'd li...

Oh to be Free of the Bird (The Pretender, 19-30) 29.06.2026

As Tobias' book comes to a close, it's time to reveal a secret...a secret people reading in release order knew over a year ago. Listen I don't know why they did it this way, but here we are. With the mystery of his family finally revealed it's time to make a decision...once and for all. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Superfella, Tobias Lives by the Blade, and Now That's What I Call Ha...

Old School Chupacabras (The Pretender, 10-18) 23.06.2026

The hunt for Bek is only heating up, and as if that weren't bad enough Tobias still can't have dinner? Somebody get this guy a mouse! Oh plus he's thinking about his human cousin and how Rachel saw him doing something embarrassing and oh dang this kid has a lot going on right now. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Outer Space Study Buddies, Blade Nerves, and Learn to Mine Asteroids! If y...

Let Birds Say Swears! (The Pretender, 1-9) 05.05.2026

You always know it's going to be a good time when you start a Tobias book. By which I mean Tobias is going to have a terrible time! And also possibly a family he didn't know about before? Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Hork-Bajir Valley Ranch Dressing, The Flesh Should Be Inside, and A Nice Refreshing Dr. Brown! If you'd like to get a head start on this show, you can find us at patreo...

77. Jubba-Jubba Jumpers (The Hork-Bajir Chronicles, 27-Epilogue) 12.04.2026

It's time for the final episode of the Hork-Bajir Chronicles, and the close of Aldrea and Dak's story. Also we missed pretty much the entire war for Planet Hork-Bajir? Timeskips, bay-bee! Oh, and Andalites are imperialist dicks, as usual. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Red is the Pain Color, Squatters but with Spikes, and That's a Lotta Goth! If you'd like to get a head start on this...

She's Got Huge...Hordes of Monsters (The Hork-Bajir Chronicles, 18-16) 05.04.2026

Aldrea and Dak's adventure reaches a fever pitch, as they discover the Ancient Secret of Planet Hork-Bajir! Also how flawed Andalite naming schemes are, because if they name the planet after it's sentient species, it should really be Planet Hork-Bajir And Also Arn. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Asteroid Physics, That's Not How Planets Work, and Realizing Your GF is a Colonizer! If yo...

Prequels are Never Tragic! (The Hork-Bajir Chronicles, 9-17) 29.03.2026

So I dunno why this book even needs to be here, things seem pretty much fine and good on Planet Hork-Bajir. The Yeerks barely even know how to do orbital bombardment! Oh, wait, uh oh... Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Bear Band Jamboree, Wait, You Can Do Violence?, and Seerow ACTUALLY Didn't Do Anything Wrong! If you'd like to get a head start on this show, you can find us at patreon.c...

Seerow Died for our Sins (The Hork-Bajir Chronicles, Prologue-8) 22.03.2026

So this is one of the most-remembered books from the Animorphs series, one of the most popular by far and an intense diversion from the main story to show us how the war started in the first place. But all Barafin wants is to play on his computer. Relatable! Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about A Treatise on the Variability of Acid Rain, Seerow Did One Tiny Thing A Little Bit Wrong, Men in...

Branded Bean Mush (The Solution, 19-29) 17.03.2026

Well, here we are. The end of an era. And by era i mean roughly the first 30% of Animorphs! Also these books about David, now we'll have to find something else to be cryptic about. I'm definitely not downplaying this because of the agonizing self-examination in this book, don't worry about my little deflections. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Rampant Justification, Amogus Cousin Editi...

Aww Yisss Garbage Time (The Solution, 10-18) 26.01.2026

So you know how there was that secret meeting with the President and like five other world leaders and one of them is already a controller but we don't know which one? Yeah we're just gonna backburner that, we got an evil child to deal with. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Low-Cholesterol Morphing, The Other Type of Brain Worms, and How Did He Get an Orca??? Wanna hang out? You can fin...

Ratchel's Revenge (The Solution, 1-9) 06.01.2026

As the Asshole Trilogy moves into its final act, it's time for a touch of the old hyperviolence! Did you ever want to know who would win between a lion and Rachel?

70. Full Pissboy (The Threat, 19-28) 09.12.2025

A line has been crossed, friends, and it's not one you ever want to cross. David is well and truly the enemy of the Animorphs now, and they have no idea how to defend against the techniques they've been using for years! Plus, like...you can't just cry in front of Visser Three, not cool man. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Double Holograms All the Way, Twobias, and Bird Math! Wanna hang...

Bloated With Dragonfly Juice (The Threat, 10-18) 01.12.2025

Okay look. I GET that it was deeply unfair of us to go on hiatus right before episode 69 dropped but that's just the way the motherboard crumbles sometimes, you know? Anyway. Niiiiiiice. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Sixty-Nine Dudes!, Female-Presenting Legs, and Liefeld Lions! Wanna hang out? You can find us on bluesky @usweirdoscast.bsky.social! You can also email us at usweirdosca...

Bird Crimes (The Threat, 1-9) 09.11.2025

Okay so I KNOW that new kid seemed super sus when Marco was telling the story, but Jake probably has a more even keel about all this, right? Right? Uh-oh. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about The World Blew Up, Everyone's Favorite Character, and Chemicals Out the Wazoo! Wanna hang out? You can find us on bluesky @usweirdoscast.bsky.social!

Taking the Murderbird (The Discovery, 19-26) 02.11.2025

This is probably fine! You really shouldn't dangle an evil carrot in front of someone's nose if you want them to not eat it, right? Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Spy Dads 3D, He's Helping! Sort Of!, and The Verb Form of Dolphin! Wanna hang out? You can find us on bluesky @usweirdoscast.bsky.social!

Cascading Stupidity Aura (The Discovery, 10-18) 27.10.2025

What's in the (Blue) Boooox (The Discovery, 1-9) 21.10.2025

After all these weeks, it's finally here...the Asshole Trilogy begins with a new kid in town, and some pure Looney Tunes nonsense!

64. How Yeerks Werk (The Departure, 19-27) 25.08.2025

We've come to the conclusion of one of the quieter and more thoughtful Animorphs books, which means it's time for the kids to decide whether they're going to murder an even younger kid! Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Viv is Too Old for Puns, Would You Still Love Me If I Was a Worm, and I Said Godzilla Makes You Feel Things Dangit! Wanna hang out? You can find us on bluesky @usweirdosc...

Incidental Leopard (The Departure, 10-18) 10.08.2025

Extrude the Mouth-Flesh (The Departure 1-9) 06.07.2025

One of our most unusual books thus far starts with Cassie getting a midnight visitor! And also swearing off violence forever. With forty books left in the series, we'll see how well that promise goes! Join Kate, Vivian and Nobody to talk about Nobody Gets Excited to Talk About Cats, Hatchet Time Baybeee, and Animorph No More! Wanna hang out? You can find us on bluesky @usweirdoscast.bsky.social! Y...

Prehistoric Moral Relativism (In the Time of Dinosaurs, 28-37) 18.06.2025

As the second Megamorphs draws to a close, it's time for preposterous moral dilemmas! How many dings do we give Tobias for that, anyway? Join Vivian, Kate, and Nobody to talk about Viv is Not Millions of Ants, Dino Commandos, and The Lost City of Crablantis! Wanna hang out? You can find us on bluesky @usweirdoscast.bsky.social!

Got the Space Broccoli Blues (In the Time of Dinosaurs, 19-27) 08.06.2025

Dinosaur adventures continue as the Animorphs come to a startling revalation about the history of the Earth-the Ancient Aliens guys were right! Sort of. Not really. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Crab People, Atom Smashin', and What Do Your Andalite Eyes See! Wanna hang out? You can find us on bluesky @usweirdoscast.bsky.social! You can also email us at usweirdoscast@gmail.com! Vivian...

The Find Out Portion of the Exercise (In the Time of Dinosaurs, 10-18) 25.05.2025

We're Back! (A Dinosaur's Story)! Trapped in the past the Animorphs are slowly starting to figure out what's going on with all these dinosaurs, by which I mean Ax is apparently capable of soloing a T-rex?

ACCEPT THE CHALLENGE (In the Time of Dinosaurs, 1-9) 18.05.2025

It's Megamorphs time, y'all! And this one is way more coherent than last time around! The kids get caught up in a rescue mission that shoots them back to a time where they aren't the apex predators! Also that's two episodes in a row Ax has exploded, so you know. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about K.A. Forgor, Jake Doesn't Know What Dinosaurs Are, and Getting Nuked for Fun and Profit! We k...

57. Ax Gets Blasted (The Decision, 20-29) 04.05.2025

It's time to close out our little space adventure, and surprisingly enough it doesn't involve that much graphic violence! Against people, anyway. This is gonna mess up the environment for DECADES. Join Kate, Vivian, and Nobody to talk about Gotta Morph em all, Morphs We Shall Never Speak Of Again, and Time is a Flat Cinnabon! We kind of gave up on twitter! You can find us on bluesky @usweirdoscast...
