An exploration of the varying perceptions of dinosaurs through time, from the reptilian lumberers – unfit to survive – of the olden days, to the feathery, dynamic animals of today. Societal attitudes toward evolution in general informed early attitudes toward dinosaurs; but new fossil discoveries through the decades could only change these attitudes. Get ready for the new Jurassic World movie the Monster Science way!
The debut of Reverend Matt’s Monster Science’s very own Phoenix Late Night slot! The third Thursday of the month, January through March, and perhaps onward!
First up: “The Ten Best Dinosaurs,” which covers exactly that – the ten dinosaurs that are, in fact, the best. Some because they changed our understanding of what evolution could do, some because of their incredible size, some because of their utter bizarreness, but all because they were totally rad.
Awww, you’re not bastards. I think you’re really nice.
But evolution is a thing that can be explained pretty much irrefutably in like ten minutes, as I do here, and the fact that we’re having a prolonged national debate about it makes me grouchy.
Hello. Ahem. Hello. I’m back. Hopefully to stay; I’ve been messing around with podcasting hardware and software and results are promising so far. But for now, please enjoy my guest-starring on the extraordinary Doctor Who podcast “Get Off My World”! I’m the guest monster expert, and we talk about the Third Doctor series “The Dinosaur Invasion,” and argue about Star Wars and Star Trek! Check it out here!
Well, dang, guys. I cannot thank you enough for the first week of Rev. Matt’s Monster Science! All the people who’ve gotten the word out! All the kind words! 90 Facebook ‘likes’! (There’s a Facebook page for this, see.) Thank you so, so much.
