0:41.5	Hello and welcome to Ino-Dino. I'm Garrett.
0:42.3	And I'm Sabrina.
0:50.5	And today in our 324th episode, we have a bunch of news, including three new Sauribods.
0:51.3	Mm-hmm.
0:56.0	I was going to do four, but these three are pretty intense and very interesting.
0:56.9	I'll take it.
1:05.1	We also have Dinosaur of the Day, Velafrons, which is a lambiosaurine hadrosorid, and we have our fun fact.

1:56.5	And real quick, I just want to mention something about our survey.
2:01.5	The biggest request by far was that we be more conversational, and we are trying.

2:18.7	But yeah, we're trying to be more conversational to make the show a little more interesting to listen to. And we also have a new
