| 0:41.6 | Hello and welcome to I Know Dino. I'm Garrett. |
| 0:42.3 | And I'm Sabrina. |
| 0:49.2 | And today in our 455th episode, we have a bunch of news, including two new dinosaurs. |
| 0:58.2 | And we also have a listener question about what the fastest dinosaur was, which was way more work that I thought it was going to be. |
| 1:06.9 | I went down all sorts of different possibilities and like biomechanical studies of different animals to try to piece together, which one might have been the fastest. |
| 1:12.9 | And I've got what I think is a good answer, but you can be the judge of it after I've done explaining myself. It's a tough question to answer. It is very difficult since we can't watch |

| 1:51.7 | negative for the first day in 17 days today. So I'm happy about that. We're all happy about that. |
| 1:59.4 | But that is my roundabout way of saying, making an excuse for not thanking the new patrons. |
| 2:05.0 | But I will thank them next week and thank you to all of you who joined. |
| 2:08.6 | But our 10 existing patrons who are going to thank this week are Seamus B. |
