Episode 23 - The Tour pt. 3

  

Welcome to the Juras-Sick Park-Cast podcast, the Jurassic Park podcast about Michael Crichton's 1990 novel Jurassic Park, and also not about that, too. 

Find the episode webpage at: Episode 23 - The Tour pt. 3

In this episode (stream it here!), my terrific guest Adam Leggett returns to chat with me about:

All about Dennis Nedry! Weird Al Yankovic's Fat, We put a serious spotlight on Dodgson's Inside Man. Nedry's death, Nedry's backstory, Nedry's career, his portrayal in film, Wayne Knight, Wayne Knight in The Edge, and Armed Family, his deception, Nedry trivia!, Nedry's comeuppance, his tragic story, his cultural references, his gruesome and glorious death, and the neat Goonies easter egg.

Plus dinosaur news about:

• First definitive record of Abelisauridae (Theropoda:Ceratosauria) from the Cretaceous Bahariya Formation, Bahariya Oasis, Western Desert of Egypt

• The dinosaur tracksite from the lower Barremian of Areia do Mastro Formation (Cabo Espichel, Portugal): implications for dinosaur behavior

Featuring the music of Snale https://snalerock.bandcamp.com/releases 

Intro: Sleepyhead.  Outro: Atom-Age Vampire-Cat In The Brain.

The Text:

This week’s text is The Tour pt. 3, as we continue extrapolating and exfoliating all the details out of this massive, consequential, dense chapter, spanning from pages 92 – 111. 

Discussions surround:

Jurassic Atmospheres, Grant's velociraptor excavation, 0.4 per cent success rates, feminism, paleontology, Believe me, I know!, and Building a Mystery.

Corrections:

I said that “Malcolm,” said that programmers liked to leave a trapdoor for themselves in the code, a signature letting people know “Kilroy was here,” but of course Malcolm had nothing to do with it – I meant Crichton!

The post-production team that puts SFX into a scene isn’t the gaffer - it's the foley artist. Foley artsits use an arsenal of props, foley artists devise and record the everyday sounds heard in films, television shows, and video games—noises like footsteps, a sword being drawn from a sheath, or the swishing of clothing as two people walk past each other.

Side effects: 

May cause intense cravings for tiramasu.
