0:41.7	Hello and welcome to I Know Dino. I'm Garrett. And I'm Sabrina.
0:42.8	And today in our 451 episode, we're going to be talking about Victorian-era dinosaurs with Will Tattersdill, who is an expert in that field.
0:54.3	Well, really in the Victorian side of writing and how that applies to dinosaurs, which is really interesting.
1:02.9	We also have a bunch of news, including a new ankylosaur.
1:06.5	And thank you to everybody who sent this new ankylosaur to us in our Discord because I always

1:45.8	That's true. We have. And they're always a little bit challenging for me, but I am getting more

2:02.6	That's James Allright.
2:04.1	Thomasaurus.

2:13.1	So we really appreciate that.
