Ellimist Speed-Dial (Mail Bag)
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? ...

Spy-Stomping the Spy-Floor (Book 20)
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...

Minisode: Nothlited Skrit (featuring special guest CJ!)
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)
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?
