Title: “Animorphs 55: The Podcast”
About: A book club style review of the Animorphs series of books from the 90’s! One life-long, slightly obsessive fan (Zach), one one-timer (Patrick), and one total newbie (Alex) gather together around the proverbial fire to power through the full Animorphs kids’ sci-fi series, with plenty of side tangents along the way. Buckle up!

I’m back to Animorphs! And probably not in the way you want…
Instead, I’m here to promote a podcast that I was invited on as a guest! Guess being nerdy on the Internet about a decades-old children’s book series has finally paid off! The podcast is a combination of a read-through of the entire series alternated with episodes that cover other random ’90s goodness. I, of course, was happy to join one of the book review episodes. Luckily for me, the book they happened to be on with the timing of it all was from one of my favorite characters’ perspectives: Marco’s book, The Android! It also introduced some important world-building aspects that I’m sure they will discuss more as it comes up.
It was a great discussion all around! Their group is made up of three people, two of whom have read the series (though one only once, I believe, and long ago) and one who is reading the series for the first time. As such, they don’t discuss spoilers for the rest of the series on their show. And man, was it tough to bite my tongue, but I think I managed to not ruin anything for anyone. Phew!
Definitely give the episode a listen, as well as check out the rest of their show! Like, subscribe, all that fun stuff!
