Summary

00:00:00 - Back in 2015, Ryan was joined by writer Brian Switek (@Laelaps) for an evening of drinks and discussion of dinosaurs in pop culture. The chat begins with the then recently released Jurassic World, which Brian did some website content for, and goes forth from there.

00:43:22 - Since we never actually say it out loud, a modern-day interjection to point out that we were drinking bourbon whiskey.

00:45:01 - Part two of our chat. Some sense, some non-, and like most things, ends with zombies. Be sure to pre-order Brian's new book Skeleton Keys: The Secret Life of Bone, and consider supporting his work on Patreon.

01:35:18 - PaleoPOWs are a lot like rambling late-night conversations, in that they're nice to have sometimes and better with a friend. We're fighting to get our 5-star iTunes rating back, so we're very thankful for the reviews from Aleesa S and Panda-bear24. Thanks!

More cool rewards await you if you decide to support us on our Patreon!

Music:
Cups (Pitch Perfect's "When I'm Gone") - Anna Kendrick
I Wish I Was Still Drinking - Colin Hay

0:00.0	Too lazy to get my microphone.
0:01.3	We'll just see what happens.
0:02.3	Okay.
0:03.4	Just let this happen.
0:06.4	From science sort of.com, you're listening to Science Sort of episode 288.

0:33.8	Still talking about things that are science, things that are sort of science, and things
0:36.6	that wish they were science.
0:43.4	But this one is from the archives so i found an audio track that i recorded on my ipod in the summer of 2015 between myself and brian's feetech this was when i was an intern at
0:51.6	florissant fossil beds national monument and and Brian was doing a little bit of
0:55.2	traveling to some various fossil sites in the American West, and so I invited him to come
0:59.8	check out Floresa and see some of the cool fossils there, and he ended up crashing with me for the
1:03.8	night, and so we had a long rambling conversation about paleontology and pop culture over a few
1:10.7	whiskeys, and that is the show you're about to hear.
1:13.0	Now the audio quality of this recording, like I said, it was recorded on an iPad using an app.
1:17.0	So it's not the most pristine recording, but I think it's totally listenable and worth your time.
1:21.3	So hopefully you enjoy it.
1:23.0	So this is some, but not all of the conversation from that evening.
1:26.4	And I will do my best to put a few relevant links in the show notes at
1:29.4	ScienceWrover.com.
1:30.4	But first and foremost, I want to go ahead and let everyone know that Brian himself is
1:34.8	now on Patreon.
