Jasper returns as Tovo as we delve into the world of Utaram and Outlaws and Obelisks to teach our new pal Andrew about playing D&D.
Liv joins as Makena Cole, a Firbolg Cleric (or, as she's a giraffe, a 'Girbolg').
She would like to assure you that upon the return of Outlaws and Obelisks, this will not be her character for the full series.
She really needs you to know that.
We recorded this in our AirBNB in Manchester with a Snowball mic so forgive...

Hi folks! We meant to talk about something else but this happened instead. Join us for a lovely tangent-lead chat. We're in Manchester at the moment doing a bunch of stuff to move 3BH up to the next level like big meetings, radio interviews, photo-shoots and more!
We'll be putting up a Redwall related poll very soon. Check it out! More info in this ep.

This week Liv and Jeremy chat about what you can expect from 3BH this year! We're talkin' Con appearances, AP series, live shows, side projects, and more!!!
CORRECTION: In this episode, Jeremy incorrectly says that Malta is owned by Great Britain, when in fact Malta has been an independent nation since 1964, and a member of the European Union since 2004. Our apologies for the inaccuracy!

I keep reminiscing about Animorphs! This time I finish summarizing the events of the first book, describe the morphing process in more detail, and talk in-depth about the characters Cassie, Jake, and Tobias!
There's also a bit of a bonus discussion towards the end of the series' trans themes and how they pertain to Tobias.
CW: body horror, brief mention of suicide
Here's a link to the article I read from that talks about the trans themes in Animorphs: 2024-01-27 14:00:08 +0000 UTC

Hellooooooo Halflings! It's Liv and I'm here to give you an update and kind of chat with you all? Although, it's a very one sided chat. I'll tell you what, if you post a comment on this post I will ENSURE I reply to it.
It could be anything, like "hey liv, I've taken up knitting" and I'll be like "hell yeah". As tantalising of a concept as that is, I'll move onto the main part of the post.
