Dinosaurs were getting into the mainstream almost as soon as they appeared on the scientific scene and have a rich history in novels, and short stories. This week we are joined by Richard Fallon, a historian specialising in science in literature and with a particular interest in prehistoric animals in this context. Richard and Dave recently wrote a book chapter on the odds parallels between Jurassic Park and Michael Crichton and the Lost World by Arthur Conan Doyle. Having won a prize for this ("Doylean Honors" from the ACD Society!)  we though it a great time to sit down with Richard and talk about dinosaurs and other ancient reptiles in fiction and how this has changed over time. Here's some of Richard's collective works: Creatures of Another Age: https://www.valancourtbooks.com/creatures-of-another-age.html Contesting Earth's History in Transatlantic Literary Culture, 1860–1935: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Contesting-History-Transatlantic-Literary-1860-1935/dp/0198926162/ref=tmm_hrd_swatch_0 Reimagining Dinosaurs in Late Victorian and Edwardian Literature: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Reimagining-Dinosaurs-Victorian-Edwardian-Literature/dp/1108984398/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&dib_tag=se&dib=eyJ2IjoiMSJ9.4n1IVVZf74mbQ0RyFryuMDimH9ZiV04X3glC8p-KfT8.D618IUFHF0G27P0maCF82yXIjgZs_wzvKoA6n0yiz4Y&qid=1770283675&sr=8-1 And you can follow him on Bluesky: @richardfallon.bsky.social  

The Superhero Show #614Cadillacs and Dinosaurs: RemembranceThe Superhero Show: Remembrance — Ghosts of the Past ResurfaceThis week on The Superhero Show, the hosts return to the world of Cadillacs and Dinosaurs to unpack episode 1.09, “Remembrance.” In this emotionally charged chapter, the past refuses to stay buried as long-lost technology, painful memories, and old-world ambitions collide. Unlike the jungle-heavy action of previous episodes, Remembrance shifts focus inward—forcing Jack Tenrec and the residents of Sea City to confront history itself.Echoes of the Old WorldRemembrance begins with the discovery of preserved relics from the pre-apocalypse era—artifacts that stir curiosity and ambition in equal measure. When evidence surfaces suggesting the existence of advanced cryogenic technology, hope spreads through the city. Could survivors from the old world still be alive?The hosts highlight how the episode carefully builds intrigue. Instead of immediate action, the tension grows through possibility. The idea that someone from the ancient past might awaken sparks excitement—but also unease. After all, the old world is the one that collapsed.Awakening the PastWhen a preserved figure from before the great cataclysm is revived, Remembrance pivots from mystery to moral conflict. The awakened survivor carries knowledge, but also outdated ideals rooted in control, hierarchy, and technological dominance. The hosts explore how this character represents more than a person—he embodies the mindset that led to Earth's downfall.At first, the promise of forgotten science dazzles Sea City's leadership. However, Jack remains skeptical. He understands that progress without balance can be catastrophic. As the revived figure begins pushing for the reactivation of dangerous systems and old infrastructure, the tension rises sharply.Clash of IdealsThe heart of Remembrance lies in its philosophical battle. The old world valued power and expansion. Jack values harmony and sustainability. The hosts dive into how the episode stages this conflict not just through dialogue, but through escalating stakes as ancient systems threaten to destabilize the fragile ecosystem Sea City depends on.As dormant machinery hums back to life, the danger becomes immediate. Technology once meant to protect civilization now risks destroying what little has been rebuilt. The episode's action crescendos as Jack and Hannah scramble to shut down systems that should have remained relics.Letting Go to Move ForwardBy the conclusion of Remembrance, the message becomes clear: survival requires learning from the past, not resurrecting it wholesale. The revived figure's tragic arc underscores that nostalgia can be dangerous when it ignores the consequences of history.The hosts reflect on how this episode deepens the show's overarching themes. Cadillacs and Dinosaurs has always balanced spectacle with environmental caution, but Remembrance brings that philosophy to the forefront in a powerful way.Final Thoughts on RemembranceIn the end, Remembrance stands as one of the most thoughtful entries in the series. It trades pure action for emotional weight and philosophical stakes, reminding viewers that the greatest threats aren't always dinosaurs or poachers—sometimes they're the unresolved ghosts of yesterday.Tune in to The Superhero Show as the hosts break down every layered moment of Remembrance, exploring how the past shapes the future in a world still fighting to survive.Looking for More?Want to learn more about...

Both archaeology and the Bible suggest that the world was once quite different from the world we know today. Each agrees that the earth's climate was once much more uniform than it is today.At one time the tropics may have extended into what are today polar regions. However, the Bible and evolutionary geology don't agree on how long ago that was. Bible-believing geologists, on the other hand, are reporting evidence to support the Bible's story of history.In the past years, scientists have been surprised to discover dinosaur fossils in Alaska. Dinosaurs need warm temperatures—warmer than Alaska was thought to have been. In 1986, on Canada's Axel Heiberg Island, only 600 miles from the North Pole, scientists found a huge, dense forest. Some of the trees were well over 125 feet tall. They have been snapped off at the stump and are neither fossilized nor petrified, but remain as fresh wood. Even some of the leaves are still intact. The area was filled with spruce, hickory, dawn redwood and cypress trees and was evidently a swamp, since tropical turtle and alligator remains have also been found. Tree rings show that the area was warmer in the recent past, while the size of the rings tell us that there were short, hot summers during which rapid growth occurred, followed by long, dark winters as there are today.The most interesting conclusion reached by the scientific team is that the entire region must have been subjected to a huge flood! This discovery tells us that all of geology must be restructured to present a history that agrees with the Bible's story of the earth's past.Psalm 119:89“For ever, O Lord, thy word is settled in heaven.”Prayer: Dear heavenly Father, I thank You that Your Word is true and trustworthy. Let my faith be more than a faith of words or simply comfort in bad times. Instruct me through the Bible so that my faith is a way of life. In Jesus' Name. Amen.REF: Search for a Tropical Arctic (Television documentary). Federal Department of Energy, Mines and Resources (Canada).

Description This week we celebrate the 40th anniversary of one of the most legendary video games of all time, The Legend of Zelda, and explore how it changed gaming forever. Grab your wooden sword and let's head north. From dungeon bosses to Dodongo smoke signals, we break down the history, music, trivia, and lasting impact of Nintendo's groundbreaking adventure.   News A new trailer for The Mandalorian & Grogu has dropped, teasing familiar characters and confirming a theatrical release on May 22, 2026.   DinoLand U.S.A. at Disney's Animal Kingdom is being reimagined into Tropical Americas, including an Indiana Jones retheme of the Dinosaur ride and an interactive Encanto attraction.   A new Star Wars Galactic Racer game is coming in 2026 for PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC, joining the expanding Star Wars gaming universe.   We say farewell to legendary actor Robert Duvall, whose career spanned classics like The Godfather and Apocalypse Now.   Check out our TeePublic store for some enjoyable swag and all the latest fashion trends What we're Enjoying Jay has been diving into Kingdom Rush 5: Alliance on iPad, a tower defense game bursting with cartoon charm and clever pop culture easter eggs. Its lighthearted tone and strategic depth make it easy to pick up but tough to master. Shua has been moved by Sentimental Value, an Academy Award–nominated drama starring Renate Reinsve, Inga Ibsdotter Lilleaas, Stellan Skarsgard, and Elle Fanning. This emotional story of estranged family members reconnecting delivers powerful performances and a heartfelt punch.     Sci-Fi Saturdays -  This week on Sci-Fi Saturdays Jay shines a spotlight on Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets, directed by Luc Besson. Though considered a box office disappointment, Jay found plenty to love in its ambitious world-building, visual spectacle, and pulpy sci-fi adventure energy. Read his article on RetroZap.com. And make sure to play around with the interactive map on MCULocationScout.com. Plus, you can tune in to SHIELD: Case Files where Jay and Shua talk about great stuff in the MCU.   Enjoy Video Games!  This week we journey back to 1986 and celebrate the revolutionary release of The Legend of Zelda, created by Shigeru Miyamoto. Inspired by childhood exploration, fantasy literature, and a desire to let players discover secrets on their own, Zelda dropped players into Hyrule with no hand-holding and no instructions beyond a wooden sword and courage.   We relive dungeon bosses, secret bombable walls, cryptic old men, and the unforgettable music composed by Koji Kondo. From Aquamentus to Ganon, from Second Quest surprises to Silver Arrow victories, we explore why this game still resonates four decades later, and why sometimes the best adventures are the ones where nobody tells you what to do.   Have you played through all of The Legend of Zelda? Let us know! First person that emails me with the subject line, "You have acquired a sword!" will get a special mention on the show.  Let us know. Come talk to us in the Discord channel or send us an email to EnjoyStuff@RetroZap.com

Send a textA peach-forward cocktail in hand, we jump straight into the week's biggest Disney shifts and rumors with zero fluff. Josh D'Amaro steps further into the spotlight while Dana Walden steers studios and streaming, and we break down what that likely means for parks, films, and timelines. If you've wondered whether “safe choice” can still deliver bold parks, we make the case for steady hands, clear priorities, and smarter sequencing after the stop-start era of Galaxy's Edge and Tron.From there, it's all gas: Dinosaur's days are done, Villains Land gets louder in the rumor mill, and permits hint at an indoor story coaster paired with a family dark ride wrapped in conjured Art Nouveau. We talk about the right mix of E-, B-, and C-level attractions, how to turn Magic Kingdom into a comfortable two-day plan, and why operational pacing matters as much as blue-sky ideas. Over at Hollywood Studios, the Rock 'n' Roller Coaster Muppets retheme sparks giddy anticipation for music, neon, and mayhem—plus a gentle PSA that kid-friendly themes don't erase big-thrill intensity.We also zoom into the details that shape guest experience. Disney's crackdown on AI-made character content collides with reported OpenAI collaboration, and we sketch a path for safe, delightful AI-powered character interactions that protect IP while surprising guests. Afternoon Tea at the Grand Floridian returns as a slow, elegant splurge perfect for a rest day, while a Disneyland app outage reminds everyone that seamless tech is part of the magic. Merch mania rages on with glow-up buckets and princess scents, and we end with a sobering safety note after a late-night tree fall near Plaza Inn—because maintenance and communication keep the fantasy intact.Pour something peachy and join us for a candid tour of what's changing, what's working, and what needs a rethink across Disney parks and movies. If you're excited by Villains Land, curious about AI in character meet-and-greets, or counting days to the Muppets coaster, hit play. Then tell us: what bold idea do you most want Imagineering to build next? Subscribe, rate, and share with a Disney friend who loves a good rumor and a great ride plan.

https://www.theforbiddenknowledgenetwork.comFor decades, Jurassic Park was dismissed as pure science fiction. But today, biotechnology companies are openly working on de-extinction projects—using advanced gene editing, preserved DNA, and synthetic biology to revive species long thought lost to history. From woolly mammoths to dire wolves, the question is no longer if extinction can be reversed… but how far science is willing to go.In this episode, we examine the real-world research behind de-extinction, the laboratories leading the charge, the ethical debates unfolding behind closed doors, and the possibility that prehistoric DNA could reshape the modern world. Is this conservation science—or the beginning of something far more unpredictable?

Why did the dinosaurs go extinct? Many of you have learned about the meteorite that scientists say hit the earth 66 million years ago and killed off many dinosaur species. But some dinosaurs survived, and the birds you see flying around today are their direct descendants! In this episode we trace the connection between modern birds and prehistoric dinosaurs. Other questions include:  Were any dinosaurs mammals? How did bird dinosaurs survive? Are crocodiles related to dinosaurs? Did dinosaurs have feathers? How do we know? Did all dinosaurs lay eggs? Our guest is Dr. Emily Bamforth, curator of the Philip J. Currie Dinosaur Museum in Alberta, Canada.Download our learning guides: PDF | Google Slide | Transcript

For a long time, people thought dinosaurs looked like giant, scaly lizards, but new discoveries show that's not entirely true! Scientists have found evidence that many dinosaurs actually had feathers, even some of the big ones. Instead of the dull, greenish colors we imagined, they probably came in all sorts of bright colors and patterns. Their skin textures were more varied too, with some being scaly, but others having smooth or even fluffy skin. Fossils have also revealed that dinosaurs may have looked less bulky and more bird-like than we used to think. Basically, the picture we had of dinosaurs has changed a lot!

After the dinosaurs went extinct, mammals got 1,000 times bigger, and here's why. With the dinosaurs out of the picture, there was a lot more space and food available for the surviving mammals. This allowed them to grow larger and take over the ecological roles that the massive dinos had filled. Bigger mammals could better defend themselves, explore new environments, and find diverse food sources. Plus, the climate and habitats favored these larger mammals, leading to the giants we see in the fossil record. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Friday Headlines: Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor arrested, first meeting of Donald Trump’s Board of Peace, Greg Lynn applies for bail, Aussies drop $17bn at Bunnings and Kmart, and YouTube’s first-ever video deemed museum-worthy. Deep DIve: Dinosaur bones and fossils are a highly sought-after market - snapped up by private investors, celebrities, researchers, museums, and increasingly, sold online to the highest bidder. Just before Christmas, an Australian family made a remarkable discovery: a fossilised vertebra believed to be more than 20 million years old. But their findings sparked a much bigger conversation over the debate of science vs status. In this episode of The Briefing, Helen Smith is joined by leading paleontologist Michael Archer to unpack the ethics, economics and how everyday Aussies are helping make ancient discoveries.Further listening from the headlines: The Trump 'vanity project' on Albo's desk Follow The Briefing: TikTok: @thebriefingpodInstagram: @thebriefingpodcast YouTube: @TheBriefingPodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Dinosaur bones aren't found everywhere because fossilization is a rare process that requires specific conditions. Most bones decay before they can fossilize, and only a tiny fraction are preserved in sedimentary rock. Erosion, natural disasters, and human activity can also destroy fossils before they're discovered. Plus, many fossils are buried deep underground, making them hard to find. Check out our latest video to learn more about the fascinating process of fossil formation and why these ancient treasures are so rare! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Some scientists are throwing out this mind-bending idea that dinosaurs might still be kicking it on other planets out there. We're talking about planets with conditions similar to Earth, where life could've taken a different evolutionary path. Imagine a world where T-Rexes roam the alien landscapes and pterodactyls soar through the skies—it's like something straight out of a sci-fi flick! Now, before you start packing your bags for a dino safari in space, it's all just speculation at this point. But hey, who knows what wonders the universe holds? Learn more about your ad choices.

A London gravedigger spent two years quietly digging up the dead by day and selling their bodies, teeth, and severed limbs to hospitals by night — with a 14-year-old girl holding the basket.HEAR THE NEW SONG FOR THIS EPISODE! https://youtu.be/7_uVLP_0YUM *** For the final story in this podcast episode, "Knights, Dragons, and Dino DNA"... “DINOSAUR” is a pop-punk thought experiment about ancient monsters, biblical beasts, and the uncomfortable possibility that some things might not be as settled as we're told. From Behemoth to Leviathan to a certain long-necked lake resident, the song asks a simple question: if it looks like a dinosaur, sounds like a dinosaur, and terrifies everyone like a dinosaur… what exactly are we waiting for? It's a raised eyebrow to long-held beliefs set to power chords. (Interpret responsibly.)IN THIS EPISODE: The Phaistos Disc was discovered in 1903, by Italian archaeologists in southern Crete. Since then the disc has remained a mystery as no one has been able to decipher the writings upon it, nor who made the object, what was it used for, and even if it's a genuine archaeological discovery or a clever fake. (The Phaistos Disc) *** Usually you learn that a place is haunted simply because people say it is. It's common knowledge around the town or neighborhood… but when the government of your country says a place is haunted, you'd better danged well listen. Such is the case with India's Bhangarh Fort. (Bhangarh Fort – The Most Haunted Place in India) *** At the end of 1894 French army captain Alfred Dreyfus, a graduate of the École Polytechnique, and a Jew of Alsatian origin, was accused of handing secret documents to the Imperial German military. After a closed trial, he was found guilty of treason and sentenced to life imprisonment on the dreaded Devil's Island. But that's just the beginning of the story that later became known as The Dreyfus Affair. (The Dreyfus Affair) *** We've all heard of the power of the mind – it's been shown to be beneficial in the treatment of pain, some well-trained individuals can use their mind to slow their rate of respiration, to bring their heartbeat down to almost nothing with no long-term ill effects… but what about controlling things outside of your own body? Is the mind that powerful? Some believe so – and they also believe it's one possible explanation for hauntings. (The Wild PK of the Poltergeist) *** Is it possible that our history books are wrong and that humans actually did walk with dinosaurs? It might not be as far-fetched as it sounds, especially when you look at tales of knights, dragons, and T-Rex DNA. (Knights, Dragons, and Dino DNA) *** We'll have a short tale about Joseph Naples… who chose the macabre career of being a grave digger… but only because it made it easier for him to be a grave robber… and a body snatcher.

In the mid-to-late 20th Century, dinosaurs received a major makeover in their scientific and popular image. This episode, Riley Black takes us through the timeline of the Dinosaur Renaissance. We discuss some of the big scientific milestones and the various players which brought dinosaurs into their modern era, and we'll explore the early signs and lingering notes of this historic shift.

For 17 years, Heather L. Arnold has been studying the archaeological record uncovering evidence of an ancient race of Giants who inhabited the Caribbean islands of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao nearly 7,000 years ago. When Heather moved from the island of Manhattan to the Island of Aruba to start her own tour company, her quest to provide historically accurate tours for her clients led her down a path of research shrouded by mystery. Through extensive investigations, field expeditions, explorations, and interviews, Heather determined that the true, rich history of the islands of Aruba, Bonaire, and Curaçao, had been systematically repressed, and vehemently denied. Join us as we dive in to all of the secrets Heather has found! Heather has appeared on several television shows, podcasts, radio programs, and conferences, and her research is cited in several published works of fellow researchers, as well as entered into the Aruba National Archives. She recently moved back to the island of Aruba, where she continues her research while joyfully raising her daughter, who is of Aruban descent., "Mysterious Aruba: Giants, Dwarves, Dinosaurs, and Bigfoot," will be available this year on Amazon.〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰〰

Today, I'm thrilled to announce my interview with veteran actress Elizabeth Marvel, who is currently starring in THE DINOSAURS at Playwrights Horizons. Tune in to hear some of the stories of her legendary career, including her unlikely beginnings, how Michael Langham gave her her Broadway debut in THE SEAGULL, performing the controversial revival of JULIUS CAESAR in the Park, why she wants to form a new National Actors Theater, being an American actor at Stratford, working with Glenda Jackson on KING LEAR, her collaboration with Ivo Van Hove, finding a new take on A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE, researching THE LITTLE FOXES, starring in TOP GIRLS as a new mother, the drawings Edward Albee made during SEASCAPE, acting opposite Frances Sternhagen, why PICNIC was an exorcism for her, approaching Shakespeare like music theory, what draws her to new work, and so much more. Don't miss this candid conversation with one of Broadway's best.

Barney was about love. It was always about love.” This Earth Xperience features David Joyner, actor, tantric practitioner, and the original performer inside the Barney costume on the globally recognized children's television show Barney & Friends.David Joyner portrayed Barney the Dinosaur from 1991 to 2001, bringing physical life to one of the most recognizable characters in children's television history. While Bob West provided the voice, Joyner embodied the movement, energy, and presence behind the purple character seen by millions of children worldwide. Before stepping into the role, Joyner studied theater at Texas A&M University and later became a certified tantric practitioner, a path that has shaped his understanding of energy, touch, healing, and human connection.In this episode, the conversation moves beyond nostalgia. David reflects on what it meant to physically carry a character built entirely around love, affirmation, and emotional safety. He explains how being inside the costume was both physically demanding and spiritually intentional. Every hug, every gesture, every movement had to communicate warmth and reassurance without facial expression.The conversation also explores the intersection between performance and presence. David shares how his training in tantra informed the way he understood energy exchange, particularly in a children's environment where emotional safety matters deeply. Rather than separating his acting career from his spiritual path, he describes both as rooted in the same principle: conscious connection.The episode invites listeners to reconsider what it means to hold space for others. Whether through television, touch, teaching, or simply being present, David speaks about love not as a slogan but as a practiced discipline. He reflects on identity beyond a famous character and how public perception can both elevate and limit how people see you.Each Earth Xperience has its own fingerprint. The X represents the lived experience being explored. In this episode, the X is the experience of embodying a global icon of love while cultivating a personal philosophy rooted in presence, healing, and energetic awareness.Questions to exploreWhat does it mean to embody love in a public role?How does performance shape identity?Can energy be felt through intention alone?What responsibility comes with influencing children at scale?Who are we beyond the roles the world remembers us for?About the guestDavid Joyner is an actor and certified tantric practitioner best known for physically portraying Barney the Dinosaur on Barney & Friends from 1991 to 2001. A graduate of Texas A&M University with a background in theater, Joyner later transitioned into holistic wellness and tantra education, focusing on energy work, breath, and conscious connection. His unique career bridges children's television history and adult spiritual practice.Connect with David JoynerInstagram @djoyner22
