In this special crossover episode, Patrick sits down with Zach and Alex from Animorphs 55: The Podcast to talk about the books that shaped us as kids — and the ones we read to our own children today. From Bill Peet and Magic School Bus to Where’s Waldo, I Spy, Magic Tree House, and the chapter books that pulled us into whole new worlds, we share the stories that stuck, the lessons they taught, and the joy of passing them on.

We also dive into the nostalgia and impact of the Animorphs series, how it shaped our imaginations, and why it still resonates decades later. If you love children’s books, 90s classics, or hearing parents talk about the stories that matter, this episode is a cozy, funny, heartfelt trip through the bookshelves of our childhoods.
