Episode 39 - Lex

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 39 - Lex. 

In this episode, my terrific guest Tom Fishenden joins the show to chat with me about:

British dinosaurs, the Maidstone Iguanodon, Baryonyx, the Isle of Wight, Jurassic Park, Primeval, the Jurassic Park Podcast, fandom, audio dramas, the Dino Watch Podcast, World War Z, Battle of Big Rock, hypothetical dinosaur behaviours, the Lysine Contingency, the Lysine Contingency, engaging in fandom, Lex Murphy, Lewis Dodgson, the future of the Jurassic Park as an intellectual property, dinosaur designs, #StaySafeStayJurassic, more sense, and much more!

I am told Tom's favourite dinosaur is the Dracorex hogwartsia, which has since been syonymized with Pachycephalosaurus. 

Here's a pachycephalosaur like dracorex from the Royal Ontario Museum's collection. 

Plus dinosaur news about:

• Ecologically distinct dinosaurian sister group shows early diversification of Ornithodira

• Binocular Vision in Theropod Dinosaurs

The Text:

This week’s text is Lex, spanning from pages 210 – 217.

Synopsis:

Tim finds Lex hiding in a culvert under the road, and they climb out to find Dr. Grant. Meanwhile, Ed Regis climbs out from the bounders in which he’d been hiding, feeling great shame for having abandoned the kids during the tyrannosaur attack.

As Regis emerges, he’s tackled and eaten by the juvenile tyrannosaurus, which pushes Grant and the kids to escape further into the park, rather than following the road back to “safety.”

Discussions surround:

Show, don't tell; Daddy Issues; Timeline; Believe me, I know!;
