The All Local Afternoon Update for Friday, January 26,2024

Following successful raids on the Smithsonian, the Museum Of Natural History, the Biggera Waters Public Library and the back of his Mum's wardrobe, Geoff unfortunately discovers the long-lost first three episodes of The WonderLand; from back when Little Kev was but a glint in a Covid vaccine vial. And now: after months of painstaking restoration of the original 24-track master tapes (performed at huge expense), here they are - for the first time since the last time and for the last time this time - all in one inconvenient 30-minute-or-so package.  Listen now, while you can, before it hopefully gets lost again.   NO TRANSCRIPT! (believe me, we're doing you a favour)

If you've ever been to a Sinclair gas station and see the green dinosaur out front, paleontologist Tony Fiorillo says it's a fair approximation of New Mexico's Alamosaurus—which was first discovered in New Mexico more than one hundred years ago. Not only is the Alamosaurus a “New Mexican icon,” as Fiorillo says, but it's also the only dinosaur discovered in North America so far that appears to have migrated from South America. In addition to his work as a researcher and paleontologist, Dr. Tony Fiorillo is the executive director of the New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science. His career has covered several continents largely to study dinosaurs and the environments in which they lived. For more than two decades, Fiorillo focused on the Cretaceous of Alaska. There, his teams made significant advances in the understanding of ancient Arctic biodiversity and paleoecosystems as a way of understanding future climates. In this episode, Fiorillo joins Encounter Culture host Emily Withnall in a conversation about arctic dinosaurs, what 19th-century scientists understood about the first dinosaurs they found, and how dinosaurs can provide insight for what's in store for humans.  MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE New Mexico Museum of Natural History & Science https://www.nmnaturalhistory.org/  Benjamin Waterhouse Hawkins dinosaur sculptures at Crystal Palace https://www.nhm.ac.uk/discover/crystal-palace-dinosaurs.html  Dinosaurs at Denali National Park https://www.nps.gov/dena/learn/nature/fossils.htm   We'd love to hear from you!

I've spent years trying to prove Columbus wrong when he was right”, said co-author Dr. William Keegan, curator of Caribbean archaeology at the Florida Museum of Natural History, and he said one of the more surprising finds was that the Caribs, ‘fierce' seaborne marauders from South America and rumored cannibals, invaded Jamaica, Hispaniola, and the Bahamas. And this, according to the scientist, challenges over half a century of assumptions that they never made it farther north than Guadeloupe.
