Special thanks to…

Julie Becker (Robin, Writer, Editor, Director)

Abbey Savoie (Stevie)
Abbey lives near Boise, Idaho with her teenage son, 5 cats, and two dogs. She started reading Animorphs in 1998 and likes to read through the series about once a year. She has a small Animorphs tattoo that matches a few other fans’. Animorphs was the base for many of her longtime friendships and her love for animals.
Abbey likes to volunteer and has done so for a women’s crisis center, animal shelters/fostering, and the YMCA. She likes to try out many hobbies and arts, but never long enough to get very good at one. Sporadic Phantoms was Abbey’s first attempt at acting.
Outside of her work in retail management, she spends her mornings at the gym and enjoys going to the movies alone.

Max Pacheco (Kyle)
Max Pacheco lives in beautiful Cambridge, MA with his shame and his massive collection of comic books. He has seen approximately 3600 movies and has read several books without any pictures. He has fond memories of reading Animorphs in a tent in his backyard during his childhood summers and explaining what Z Space is to his parents during long New England winters. He has some formal acting training but mostly just taps into the worst parts of himself to portray Kyle. He would like to thank Julie Becker above all for her hard work and support. Also hi Betzie you owe me a Cinnabon.

Nate Varnadoe (Hedrick Chapman)
Nate Varnadoe is an Elder Millenial with aspirations of becoming a professional entertainer. When he’s not streaming, voice acting, or podcasting, he’s most likely in his wood shop, at his day job, or spending time with his wife and child. He enjoys D&D, video games, board games, and any other game you throw at him. He likes all things fantasy and sci-fi, collects X-Men comics, and loves ska and Animorphs in equal amounts.
Nate plays as Zac on Dungeons & Dracon Beams, an Animorphs AU Actual Play, and is one-third of Soup Salad Sandwich, a podcast about food and arguments.
He also streams video games and occasional other nonsense on twitch.tv/splintersmith, is on Twitter @SplintersmithNC, and you can find his woodwork all over the internet by searching The Splintersmith.

Belinda Ju (Elizabeth Li)
Belinda Ju is a coach for startup founders, writer, dancer, and convener of a meditation community (which is not a cult). However, as Elizabeth, she’s relished being a brainwashing, gaslighting cult leader. She’s also proud to feature in the podcast’s origin story, when Julie first shared ideas about a project inspired by alternate reality games while they stood in a long, socially distant line at IKEA as a high-frequency anti-rat repellent shrieked. Although a fan of science fiction/fantasy, Belinda never read the Animorphs as a child and still hasn’t, despite the year-long run of season one (oops). Depending on plans for season 2, Belinda hopes to upgrade from her “recording studio” of hiding under a heavy down comforter on her bed. You can learn more about her and say hello at www.belinda.io.

Zoe Michelle Bradshaw (Jess)
Zoe Michelle Bradshaw is a music and psychology major at Salisbury University and the vocalist of indie folk duo Places That Aren’t Alabama. In her spare time, Zoe Michelle plays quidditch and collects rubber ducks.

MJ Lambert (Tom)
Michael “MJ” Lambert is (at the time of season one) a senior in high school and a future freshman at Georgia Tech. When not pretending to be the older evil brother in part of a galactic war, he plays and coaches tennis, practices his trumpet skills, and composes music for him and his friends to perform.
Jay Archer (Maddy)
Jay Archer, at the time of season one a Junior in High School, spends his free time making art, writing stories, and annoying his cats (in his defense, they were just asking for it- they shouldn’t have been so cute in the first place). Although this is first time entering the voice acting scene, he’s been enjoying every second of it.

Meghan Griffin (Nicole)
Meghan Griffin is a self-proclaimed amateur author who, after some time in New York City with no air conditioning, returned to the… unfortunately, still painfully hot summers of Atlanta, Georgia. She currently lives in a full household with three cats, an amazing roommate, and a guinea pig named Toast. When she is not analyzing airplanes and airports in order to pay the bills, she spends her time writing short stories, novellas, and audio dramas. She also loves cross stitching, crocheting, as well as cohosting a monthly book-club podcast and a Monster of the Week podcast. It is almost a wonder she has time to talk about movies and televisions shows on Twitter and be one of those annoying foodies on Instagram. She can be found on social media at @MeggGriffin. https://linktr.ee/megggriffin

Ryan Murphy (Richard Dolon)
Ryan Murphy is a video maker and stop motion animator who has been collaborating with many of the creators and contributors of Sporadic Phantoms for several years. He is 35 years old and a lifelong resident of Massachusetts, which has served as a longstanding inspiration for the strange and unusual subjects that tend to be his sources of inspiration. His video and other podcast work can be found at https://www.patreon.com/Guaranteed where he works with longtime collaborators Kevin James and Neil Cicierega.

Tara Lepore (Nancy Candleton)
Taormina (Tara) Lepore is a true blooded Animorphs nerd, with the Yeerk tattoo to prove it.
