Chapter 28 of Megamorphs 2, part 18.5 of Animorphs Aloud, a fan-produced read-aloud version of the Animorphs series. Sound effects: T-rex roars are from Videvo and https://freesound.org/people/icyjim/sounds/435207/ Triceratops sounds are from Videvo, https://freesound.org/people/fennelliott/sounds/621660/, and https://freesound.org/people/acclivity/sounds/50669/ Man, I think this chapter is the one that took the most work, even though it's short. You have no idea how long it took to get the sound effects right for this chapter...there are so many mixed and matched pieces that I kept shifting because I just couldn't decide what I wanted how where. (Editing late at night also did not help...) Thanks for listening!

Die Amsel ist ein Dinosaurier, genauso wie das Huhn und die Taube. Denn sie stammen direkt von Dinosauriern ab. Heute weiß man: Ihre Vorfahren sind am Ende der Kreidezeit vor 66 Millionen Jahren nicht wie die meisten anderen Dinosaurier ausgestorben. Doch Paläontologie ist vielmehr als nur die Forschung über Tyrannosaurus Rex, Triceratops oder Brachiosaurus. Es ist die Rekonstruktion der Geschichte des Lebens auf der Erde - und zwar durch verschiedene Arten von Fossilien. Auch versteinerte Spuren und Exkremente gehören dazu. Dinosaurier sind dabei vermutlich bis heute nicht nur die bekanntesten, sondern auch die beliebtesten Zeugen aus der Milliarden Jahre alten Geschichte des Lebens auf der Erde. Die ersten versteinerten Skelette von Protoceratops und Co. haben vermutlich schon fahrende Händler im antiken Griechenland ausgegraben. Römische Kaiser wie Augustus haben Museen für diese Fossilienfunde gegründet. Viele Jahrhunderte lang war dieses Wissen vergessen – bis es im 18. und 19. Jahrhundert wiederentdeckt wurde. Damals entwickelten die Menschen zum ersten Mal eine Vorstellung davon, dass die Erde Millionen Jahre alt sein könnte – und das versteinerte Tiere und Pflanzen Zeugen aus dieser Urzeit sind. Ein Podcast über gefiederte Dinosaurier, die großen Massenaussterben in der Erdgeschichte und die Frage: Flatterte der Archäopteryx wirklich wie ein Hühnchen?

The Space Above the Head - Locus 0 (Chimes Edition)Our premise remains the same:Numeral: 0Sounds: S, Z, and soft CLocus: The space just above the crown of the headImagine the space directly above your head is not empty, but filled with a delicate, ethereal array of wind chimes. They are made of polished, hollow silver rods that glint in an unseen light. They hang from invisible strings, suspended in a perfect, silent arrangement.Swoosh: A gentle, otherworldly swoosh of wind blows through the chimes, causing them to sway and collide. Instead of a loud clang, they create a beautiful, sustained, bell-like tone that echoes in the space above. This sound adds a sensory layer and an "S" sound to our scene.Celestial: The chimes are not ordinary; they are celestial chimes. Each one is etched with tiny constellations and stellar maps, and as they move, the etched patterns glow with a soft, cosmic light. The word "celestial" powerfully reinforces the soft C sound.Zigzag: As the wind passes through, the chimes don't just move side to side. They move in a deliberate, chaotic zigzag pattern, weaving in and out of each other without ever tangling. This adds a sense of unpredictable motion and an excellent "Z" sound.Zodiac: At the center of the zigzagging chimes, there is a giant, silver, circular frame. It's an intricate zodiac chart, and the chimes are arranged to represent the different star signs. The word "zodiac" provides a strong "Z" sound and gives the whole scene a meaningful structure.Sash: The entire structure of the chimes and the zodiac is held together by a thin, shimmering sash of starlight that is tied in a knot just above your head. The sash gently pulls the chimes, creating the motion and the music. The word "sash" provides another "S" sound and a concrete visual to help anchor the scene.The Space Above the Head - Locus 0The numeral 0 is associated with the S, Z, and soft C sounds. The location is the space just above the crown of the head, ensuring it doesn't interfere with our locus for numeral one.Visualize the space directly above the top of your head. It's not a physical point but a boundless, empty expanse. In this vastness, a giant, shimmering chime is suspended. A powerful force strikes the chime, and it explodes with a beautiful, echoing S-S-S-S-S-Z-Z-Z-Z-L-E sound that projects out into the universe. Stars: The echoing sound waves from the cymbal are so powerful that they create tiny, sparkling stars that glitter in the space above your head. These stars dance and shimmer in the silent vacuum. This adds another visual cue with the "S" sound.Zebra: A mischievous zebra is running in a circle around the chimes. Its stripes are a blur as it chases its own tail. The sound associated with "1" is the "D" or "T" sound. We've chosen the top of the head, and Dinosaur: A tiny, friendly dinosaur (perhaps a Triceratops, with its three horns) is nibbling on the edge of the diamond. Tiara: A sparkling, jewel-encrusted tiara is sitting on top of the donut. It glitters in your mind's eye, a regal touch. Dominoes: The diamond isn't just a diamond; it's made of a line of falling dominoes. The dominoes are tumbling one after another, creating a satisfying clatter. Tack: You're not just touching the top; you're placing a tiny, sharp tack into the very center of the diamond. Tower: The diamond isn't flat; it's the base of a miniature, leaning tower of Pisa. Location: The top of the head.Number: 1.Sounds: D and T.#Memory,#MemoryTechniques,#BrainTraining,#LearnAnything,#StudyTips,#CognitiveScience,#MindPalace,#MajorSystem.#MagneticMemoryMethod,#MemoryPalace,#Mnemonics,#MemoryLoci#MnemonicBody,#MethodOfLoci,#MnemonicDevices,#MemoryMastery,#BrainHack,#Memorization,#MindPower,#MagneticMemoryMethod, #MemoryPalace, #MajorSystem, #Mnemonics #StudyTips, #BrainTraining, #LearnFast,#MemoryLoci, #DrAnthonyMetivier, #MnemonicBody, #MemoryTechniques, #LearnAnything,

In dieser Episode des Brettspiel News Talk reisen wir gemeinsam mit unserem Gast Marc, dem Geschäftsführer von Treecer, tief in die Welt von "Rewild South America". Dies ist ein Spiel, das nicht nur die Spieler in die ökologischen Herausforderungen der Natur einführt, sondern auch ein starkes Bewusstsein für Biodiversität fördert. Marc gibt uns einen tiefen Einblick in die Entwicklung des Spiels, das bereits erfolgreich über Kickstarter finanziert wurde und sich durch seine herausragende Gestaltung und durchdachte Spielmechanik auszeichnet. Das Spiel dreht sich darum, vom Menschen verwüstete Landschaften wiederherzustellen. Die Spieler rekultivieren verschiedene Biome, wie Regenwälder und Grasland, und versuchen, tierische Bewohner in Form von Karten anzulocken. Marc beschreibt, wie die Spieler dabei strategisch vorgehen müssen, um die besten Synergien zwischen Tieren und Pflanzen zu schaffen, wobei jeder Zug zu einem spannenden Denkspiel wird, in dem es darum geht, Ressourcen effizient zu nutzen und Punkte zu sammeln. In einem ausführlichen Dialog mit den Brettspiel-News-Redakteuren Thomas, Justin und Johanna diskutieren wir die zahlreichen Mechaniken und Strategien, die "Rewild South America" auszeichnen. Die Gäste teilen ihre Erlebnisse und Eindrücke aus ersten Partien, wobei sie den taktischen Charakter des Spiels und die vielen Entscheidungsfaktoren hervorheben. Marc erläutert, wie wichtig es beim Spiel ist, flexibel auf die Gegebenheiten auf dem Tisch zu reagieren und sich nicht zu sehr auf eine fixe Strategie zu verlassen. Ein weiterer spannender Punkt ist die besondere Liebe zum Detail in der Artwork-Gestaltung, die stark an Studio Ghibli erinnert. Marc erklärt, dass die visuellen Elemente des Spiels nicht nur ästhetisch ansprechend sind, sondern auch dazu dienen, das Thema des Spiels zu unterstreichen und das Engagement für den Naturschutz zu fördern. Diese kreative Herangehensweise bringt nicht nur die Schönheit der Natur zur Geltung, sondern vermittelt auch die tiefere Botschaft hinter der Spielerfahrung. Wir erfahren auch, wie Marc und sein Team an die Balance der Karten herangegangen sind, um eine faire und unterhaltsame Spielerfahrung zu gewährleisten. Trotz aller mathematischen Berechnungen und Playtests bleibt jedes Spiel einzigartig und nimmt durch die Interaktion der Spieler immer wieder neue Wendungen an. Marc gewährleistet, dass auch für weniger erfahrene Spieler genügend Zugang zum Gameplay vorhanden ist und jeder seine Freude am Spiel finden kann. Abschließend wird ein Ausblick auf zukünftige Projekte gegeben, einschließlich geplanter Erweiterungen und der Möglichkeit, "Rewild South America" im Einzelhandel zu erwerben. Der Late-Pledge für die Kickstarter-Kampagne bleibt zudem offen, was den Interessierten ermöglicht, sich noch anzuschließen. In dieser Episode wird klar, dass "Rewild South America" nicht nur ein Spiel, sondern auch eine Einladung ist, die Wunder der Natur neu zu entdecken und sich aktiv mit den Themen Umwelt und Nachhaltigkeit auseinanderzusetzen.Hier geht es zur Kampagnen-SeiteDiscord Link des Verlags: https://discord.com/invite/rzyDM82PKgTabletop-Simulator auf Steam: https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=3442464092Euer FeedbackIhr habt Feedback zu dem Podcast und Themen- oder Gastwünsche?

Evidence of one of the last dinosaurs to live in Africa has been discovered in Morocco.在摩洛哥发现了最后一个居住在非洲的恐龙之一的证据。A fossilized dinosaur jawbone was recovered at a mine, which is about 100 kilometers west of the city of Marrakesh.在马拉喀什市以西约100公里处回收了一个化石的恐龙颚骨。Researchers say the bone belonged to a creature they are calling Chenanisaurus Barbaricus.研究人员说，骨头属于他们称为Chenanisaurus barbaricus的生物。Dinosaurs lived between about 230 and 65 million years ago. Then they died out. Scientists think an asteroid -- a huge rock from space – struck the Earth's surface 66 million years ago.恐龙的生活在大约230至6500万年前。 然后他们消失了。 科学家认为，一只小行星 - 一块来自太空的巨大岩石 - 在6600万年前袭击了地球的表面。They believe this event led to the disappearance of dinosaurs on our planet. This marked the end of the time period known as the Cretaceous Period.他们认为，这一事件导致恐龙在我们地球上消失。 这标志着被称为白垩纪时期的时间段的终结。Nick Longrich identified the new dinosaur species. Longrich is a paleontologist at the University of Bath. He says what is important about the discovery is that it shows how Africa had its own dinosaurs.尼克·朗里希（Nick Longrich）确定了新的恐龙物种。 朗里希（Longrich）是巴斯大学（University of Bath）的古生物学家。 他说，这一发现重要的是它表明了非洲如何拥有自己的恐龙。"We have a pretty good picture of the dinosaurs from North America for this time period. For example, Triceratops and T. Rex are part of this fauna, this sort of twilight fauna of the last dinosaurs on Earth. But we don't have a good picture of what's going on in the rest of the world and we know almost nothing about the African dinosaurs from this time period."“我们对这一时期的北美恐龙有很好的了解。例如，三角龙和霸王龙是这个动物群的一部分，属于地球上最后的恐龙的暮色动物群。但我们对世界其他地方正在发生的事情没有很好的了解，而且我们对这一时期的非洲恐龙几乎一无所知。”“在这个时期，我们对来自北美的恐龙有很好的了解。Nick Longrich thinks the Chenanisaurus was similar in appearance to the larger Tyrannosaurus Rex, also called T. Rex. But there were differences.尼克·朗里希（Nick Longrich）认为，chenanisaurus的外观与较大的霸王龙相似，也称为T. Rex。 但是有差异。The Chenanisaurus had a shorter snout than the T. Rex. The area around its nose and mouth were not as big.Chenanisaurus的鼻子比T. Rex短。 鼻子和嘴巴周围的区域不那么大。Longrich suspects that the T. Rex probably had feathers like a bird, but the Chenanisaurus did not. He also thinks the Chenanisaurus was less intelligent than the T. Rex because it had a smaller brain.朗里希（Longrich）怀疑雷克斯（T. 他还认为Chenanisaurus比T. Rex聪明，因为它的大脑较小。Longrich said researchers know the fossil comes from a dinosaur bone because of the teeth. Dinosaur teeth are usually serrated, pressured from side to side.朗里希（Longrich）说，研究人员知道，由于牙齿，化石来自恐龙骨。 恐龙的牙齿通常是锯齿状的，一侧到另一侧是压力。In addition, the edges of the teeth were rounded, as if they bit into bone. This suggests that the Chenanisaurus, like the T. Rex, hunted for its food.另外，牙齿的边缘被圆形，好像它们咬在骨头上一样。 这表明，像T. Rex一样，Chenanisaurus狩猎了食物。For Longrich, the fossil discovery in Morocco is evidence for the theory of mass extinction of the dinosaurs.对于朗里希来说，摩洛哥的化石发现是恐龙大规模灭绝理论的证据。"It's interesting to see evidence confirming that dinosaurs remained successful and the fauna stayed pretty stable up until the end of the Cretaceous period in Africa. So I think there is no evidence as far as I'm concerned of a decline in dinosaur diversity approaching the extinction, and if it hadn't been for this asteroid, we'd probably still have dinosaurs here today."“很有趣的是，证据证明恐龙仍然取得成功，而动物群一直保持稳定，直到非洲的白垩纪结束时。因此，我认为没有证据表明，就我关注恐龙多样性的下降而接近灭绝的证据，如果没有这种小争吵，我们可能仍然在这里。”

Tonight's wildly imaginative story was wished for by Leo, a brave 3-year-old listener from Ottawa, Canada. Leo sent us a voice message asking for a tale about a Triceratops and his T-Rex friend who save the day from—wait for it—cabbages!

Will Rai's mighty roar and Chomp's clever brain be enough to stop the bouncing vegetables? Or will the Age of Cabbages really begin?And tonight's fact segment is all about something just as magical: Fantasy Creatures! From sparkly fairies and sea-singing mermaids to flaming phoenixes and grumpy bridge trolls, we'll explore all sorts of creatures from myths and imagination.So snuggle into your bed like a dino in a cozy cave, and let's stomp into another legendary tale—right here on Magic Bedtime Stories.

The Bone Wars, also known as the Great Dinosaur Rush, is what a period of intense fossil hunting in the late 19th century came to be called, thanks primarily to the intense and bitter rivalry between two of America's most prominent early paleontologists, Edward Drinker Cope and Othniel Charles Marsh. These two men, who started out as friends, would end up destroying each other's and their own lives in their intense quest to become America's most heralded fossil hunter. Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious PrivateFacebook Group?

We think we know their story. The asteroid. The extinction. But one person believes that the dinosaurs may have left more than their bones behind. Genre: Science Fiction, Mystery   Excerpt: They saw it coming. And at first they were helpless. Despite how far they'd come in their hundred-million-plus years of existence, they were helpless to stop the asteroid that was headed right for them. So they didn't stop it. But they didn't stay helpless either. What story or stories am I revisiting in this episode?Each Season 8 episode is a standalone story, but it's connected to or inspired by a previous story through a character, a place, an object, a concept, a continuation of events (ahem, sequel), and so on. This story admittedly was an exception to this year's theme of revisiting previous stories.  However, there is a story with a similar enough premise: a mystery surrounding a prehistoric era, and the possibility that something from that era could have survived to the modern age of humans. That Season 4 story is “Age Upon Age of Frozen Sleep.”    MERCH!Interested in merch, like mugs and notebooks, featuring my artwork?

(image source: https://www.deviantart.com/lucas-attwell/art/Psittacosaurus-meileyingensis-752628599) Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Lexi Ryan discuss Psittacosaurus, an early representative of the dinosaurs that would later become Triceratops and Styracosaurus and the like despite looking almost nothing like one. It has the parrot-like beak I guess. Oh wait, that's how it got its name! I'm smart. From the Early Cretaceous, this 6-foot basal ceratopsian apparently had a fossilized impression uncovered of its butthole, meaning y'all should be careful with where you park your truck.

As part of Science Friday's 33rd anniversary show, we're revisiting our listeners' favorite stories, including this one from 2022.66 million years ago, a massive asteroid hit what we know today as the Yucatán Peninsula of Mexico. Many people have a general idea of what happened next: The age of the dinosaurs was brought to a close, making room for mammals like us to thrive.But fewer people know what happened in the days, weeks, and years after impact. Increased research on fossils and geological remains from this time period have helped scientists paint a picture of this era. For large, non-avian dinosaurs like Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus rex, extinction was swift following the asteroid impact. But for creatures that were able to stay underwater and underground, their post-impact stories are more complicated.In 2022, Utah-based science writer Riley Black joined Ira to discuss her book The Last Days of the Dinosaurs.Transcripts for each segment will be available after the show airs on sciencefriday.com.

(image source: https://www.everythingdinosaur.com/product/haolonggood-pentaceratops-lioutang/) Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Allen Brooks discuss Pentaceratops, a large horned dinosaur just had to one-up Triceratops in the horn quantity department, or technically two-up I guess, since five is two more than three. I'm mathing! From the Late Cretaceous, this 20-foot chasmosaurine ceratopsid actually really had three horns like most other chasmosaurines, it just had highly pronounced cheekbones that were mistaken for additional horns. Wow, this thing tried to two-up Triceratops by cheating! Shameful, Pentaceratops, shameful. Want to further support the show?

The Garden visits Mt. Olympus and the Greek world with our sometimes cohost, Cee the Superior, and New York Times bestseller, George O'Connor. Disclaimer: The show did not get a proper ending as I lost internet, but the vast majority of the topic was covered. The better news is George has agreed to come on again and we'll visit some of your favorites and mine.George O'Connor is an author, illustrator and cartoonist. Above all, George is a Greek mythology buff and a classic superhero comics fan, and he's out to remind us how much our pantheon of superheroes (Superman, Batman, the X-Men, etc) owes to mankind's original superheroes: the Greek pantheon. Now he has brought his attention to OLYMPIANS, an ongoing series retelling the classic Greek myths in comics form.​In his New York Times bestselling Olympians series, O'Connor draws from primary documents to reconstruct and retell classic Greek myths. But these stories aren't sedate, scholarly works. They're action-packed, fast-paced, high-drama adventures, with monsters, romance, and not a few huge explosions. O'Connor's vibrant, kinetic art brings ancient tales to undeniable life, in a perfect fusion of super-hero aesthetics and ancient Greek mythology. George's first graphic novel, Journey Into Mohawk Country, used as its sole text the actual historical journal of the seventeenth-century Dutch trader Harmen Meyndertsz van den Bogaert, and told the true story of how New York almost wasn't. He followed that up with Ball Peen Hammer, the first graphic novel written by playwright Adam Rapp, a dark, dystopian view of a society's collapse. In addition to his graphic novel career, O'Connor has published several children's picture books, including the New York Times best-selling Kapow!, Sally and the Some-Thing, If I Had a Raptor and If I Had a Triceratops. George lives in Brooklyn, NY with five terrible cats and one Olympian goddess.

In de laatste van drie specials over ‘Triceratops - de kudde', een samenwerking tussen Dinocast, Quest Magazine en Naturalis, opent de tentoonstelling na jaren van voorbereiden. Vanaf nu is het zover: na dik tien jaar opgraven, onderzoek en opbouwen kun je de vijf Triceratopsen in het echt komen bekijken in de nieuwe dinozaal van Naturalis. Dinocast was bij de opening, samen met de 50 grootste dinofans van Nederland. Dik 10 jaar lang zijn Nederlandse expeditieteams bezig geweest met opgraven, preparatieteams met uithakken, onderzoeksteams met bestuderen. Zo'n 100.000 werkuren gingen er voorbij. Dat maakt het voor deze bezoekers tot een prachtig moment, maar óók voor de hoofdrolspelers uit onze specials: Anne, Yasmin, Hanneke, Jimmy en al hun collega's en vrijwilligers.Gijs vraagt de allereerste bezoekers naar hun allereerste reacties over de kudde. Hij gaat ook op zoek naar de antwoorden op Triceratops-vragen die Quest-lezers en Dinocast-luisteraars hebben ingestuurd: Jimmy de Rooij en Anne Schulp geven antwoord.En Maarten en Gijs spreken met een hele bijzondere medewerker van Naturalis: eentje die gespecialiseerd is in dino-littekens, botbreuken en pus.Iemand die met een hele bijzondere blik naar deze vijf triceratopsen kijkt. Daan van Elzen specialiseert zich in de vreselijkste dingen die een dino kan overkomen, namelijk: ziekte en dood. Ze staat bekend onder de naam ‘dinodokter daan'. En ze is paleo-patholoog, wat is dat precies?Op Quest.nl/dino vind je tal van artikelen over de kudde en ook over andere dinosauriërs, neem daar vooral een kijkje! En bezoek vooral ook Naturalis om deze prachtige triceratopskudde in het echt te kunnen zien.

Episode #353 Get ready for a magical journey as Torie Brown Hunt returns to The Disney Crush Podcast with a trip report like no other. With her daughter and 8 nieces along for the ride, some experiencing the wonder of Walt Disney World for the first time. Don't miss this enchanting episode.  www.thedisneycrush.com thedisneycrush@gmail.com www.patreon.com/thedisneycrush   Favorite park and why   Hadley: Magic Kingdom because the rides were the biggest and best and the most   Emily: I would say my favorite park was EPCOT although I think we all agreed that it was only fun because we had an Auntie that bought us all the good snacks and knew all the best spots. I also loved Animal Kingdom, I think it's kind of a sleeper hit and I can imagine if you're not an animal person you could probably take it or leave it. I genuinely couldn't believe they had real animals though. So cool! I think I like both of those because they are the least like Disneyland which I went to many times growing up. They felt like entirely new theme park experiences.    Alyse: If I had to pick a favorite park it would probably be Epcot because it surprised me the most and there was so much different stuff to see which was awesome.    Callie: My favorite park was definitely Hollywood studios because I loved all the rides there because they were exciting and at the end of the day it cooled down and was super nice and pretty sunset    Elynn: I can't decide between Epcot or Hollywood Studios I like Epcot because of all the things to see. I liked Hollywood for the ride and how pretty it was during sunset.   Addisen: Animal Kingdom- Felt the most balanced with big and small rides. I felt like we could get everything done and it wasn't as busy. More shaded and didn't feel rushed.   Leilani: My favorite park is Epcot because of the food and the immersive experience with all of the cultural aspects! I love that they have things from the specific countries and how they sell things from the actual places and not just all Disney themed things! Animal kingdom is a close second for me though!   Favorite Attraction   Hadley: Tron because it was really fast and fun   Emily: Well, one of my favorite rides at Disneyland is Rise of the Resistance but it is essentially the same at Disney World so I'm going to say Avatar Flight of Passage. There really is nothing quite like it, and it's incredibly immersive. I would recommend it to literally everyone I know. Even if you don't like the Avatar movies that almost doesn't matter, it's just a cool ride.    Elynn: Tower of terror   Addisen: Guardians of the Galaxy, gotta love the 80s music   Leilani: My favorite ride is flight of passage because it really feels like you're flying and the views it takes you on are so magical and I wish I could actually go there! I love the details of the breathing of the banshee, the water droplets when you go over the water, and the scents of flowers, grass, and water! It feels like you're really there!   Favorite food    Hadley: Chinese potstickers and egg rolls with soy sauce   Emily: I'm a Dole Whip girly. It's hands down the best thing at both Disney parks and I HAVE to get one any time I go. Other than that I think I liked the gyoza and egg rolls we go (don't remember where but I'm sure Torie knows). I watch those things pretty regularly in my day to day life but there is something about being exhausted and sweaty sitting on the floor eating them that made it magical.    Alyse: Best food were the potstickers in China or the chocolate crepe in France.    Callie: The best food was the food from the Sci-Fi restaurant and I got a American burger and fries and fried pickles    Elynn: The Dole Whip swirl float or the purple moose cake at Animal Kingdom    Addisen: Hazelnut crepes in France. I will be dreaming about that forever.   Leilani: This is a hard one because I am a foodie just like my mama, but the ratatouille galette was so good and the Texas toast brisket sandwich and the Mac and cheese at the Regal Eagle was unexpectedly amazing! The lemon sorbet from Italy was extra refreshing in the extreme heat though for sure.   What surprised you most   Hadley: How decorated everything was and that everything was perfectly made to match a theme   Emily: How NOT tired I was at the end of the trip. I woke up the day we were flying home and was like “I could do it again today”. I was also impressed with how eventually you just accept the heat and forget about it. I don't think anyone complained about how hot it was and we were always so busy that you could even really think about it. Cooling cloths and hand held fans were definitely our life savers though!    Alyse: What surprised me was how detailed everything was but especially the lines for rides. Compared to Disneyland everything was more interactive and interesting to look at. Also just the technology and engineering that takes place to make the parks happen.   Callie: The thing that surprised me the most was Epcot because I had no idea that it was going to be decorated to well and that made it fun to see   Elynn: I was surprised how much I enjoyed Epcot, I thought I wouldn't like it that much because I like thrill rides.   Addisen: Epcot, only park I haven't been to before. I haven't heard many people talk about it but I was so cool. Underrated   Leilani: The Nemo sea ride in Epcot surprised me the most because I was not expecting a whole entire aquarium after the ride! That was such a cool surprise and I had never seen a manatee in my life and they're a lot bigger and cuter than I would've expected haha   Rope drop or sleep in?   Hadley: Rope Drop   Emily: Rope drop 100%. I'm all here for it. That being said, I am a morning person, but it's SO MUCH cooler in the morning and you can get so many things done before the lines get crazy. It's absolutely worth it in the summer.    Alyse: #Ropedrop, sleep is for the weak    Callie: I think Rope dropping is better because it's cooler in the morning and you are able to get some of the longer line rides done early on  Elynn: Definitely rope drop.   Addisen: Rope drop. The cool morning makes all the difference.   Leilani: I know you're expecting me to say sleep in, but because of the extreme heat in July, rope dropping is the move. My body just hates waking up that early hahaha. But in December and may I'm sleeping in for sureeeeee   Most cherished memory:   Hadley: The third time riding tower of terror and pretending to control it   Emily: This has nothing to do with the parks, but I will always remember how easy it was to connect and relate to everyone, even after not seeing people for years. This was definitely different than seeing people at family reunions, we all just got to be completely ourselves and discover that we all are very much the same. Before we all left I said “I really don't think you could have this much fun on a trip without doing it with people you vibe with as much as we do”. I will always remember how close this made us.    Alyse: The evening at Hollywood studios and magic kingdom, re-riding tower of terror and Tron but also being able to see everything at night   Callie: The night at Hollywood studios and riding tower of terror 3 times    Elynn: Hanging out at night at Hollywood and Magic kingdom, riding Tower of Terror and Tron 3 times, and seeing the parks at night.   Addisen: Sitting down to eat or have snacks and just being able to talk with everyone.    Leilani: My favorite memory was all of us walking through the rain together any time it rained. It felt so good when it rained and I loved splashing in the puddles! Being able to talk to everyone and connect in a deeper level is for sure the best part of the trip. It was so much fun to be able to get to know everyone for who they are just as girls being girls     Alyse's Rankings:   Day one Triceratops spin - 4/10 3.5/10 Dinosaur (time travel) - 7/10 7.75/10 Expedition Everest - 9/10 9.2/10 Kali River Rapids - 5/10 5.25/10 Safari - 9/10 9.5/10 Flight of passage - 10/10 Navi River Journey - 8/10 It's Tough to be a bug - 6/10   Pandoran Juice - 7/10 Yak & Yeti Cafe yogurt parfait - 3/10   Day Two Soaring - 6/10 Guardians of the Galaxy - 10/10 Ratatouille - 5/10 Grand fiesta - 3/10 Imagination figment - 2/10 Finding Nemo - 4/10 Aquarium - slay/10 Living with the land - 3/10 put to sleep Frozen ever after - 7/10   France - Hazelnut chocolate crepe - 9/10 France bakery - 8/10 Japanese snacks - 7/10 Italy - gelato - 7/10 China - Potstickers eggs roll - 9/10 Canada - Maple popcorn 4/10   Day Three Mickey Minnie - 7/10 Slinky dog - 6/10 Toy Story Mania - 8/10 Swirling Saucers - 3/10 Tower of Terror - 9/10 Frozen sing along - 6/10 Rocking roller coaster - 8/10 Rise of resistance - 9/10 Star Tours - 5/10 Smugglers run - 7/10   Raspberry tart - 7/10 Churro - 8/10 Sci Fi theater - 7/10 Gelato - 9/10 Day Four Rides/shows Buzz - 6/10   Day Four Buzz - 6/10 People mover - 4/10 Tiana's Bayou Adventure - 9/10 Pirates of the Caribbean- 7/10 Tron - 9.5/10 Space mountain - 7.5/10 7 dwarfs - 7.5/10 Winnie the Pooh - 4/10 Barnstormer - 4/10 Jungle cruise - 8/10 Haunted mansion - 7/10   Starlight cafe - 7.5/10 Pizza egg rolls - 8/10

I'm your host, Kate Shaw. This week we're going to learn about the link between fossils and folklore, a topic inspired by a conversation I had with Richard from North Carolina. We know that stories about monsters were sometimes inspired by fossils, and we even have an example from episode 53. That was way back in 2018, so let's talk about it again. In Klagenfurt in Austria there's a statue of a dragon, called the lindorm or lindwurm, that was erected in 1593 to commemorate a local story. The story goes that a dragon lived near the lake and on foggy days would leap out of the fog and attack people. Sometimes people could hear its roaring over the noise of the river. Finally the duke had a tower built and filled it with brave knights. They fastened a barbed chain to a collar on a bull, and when the dragon came and swallowed the bull, the chain caught in its throat and tethered it to the tower. The knights came out and killed the dragon. The original story probably dates to around the 12th century, but it was given new life in 1335 when a skull was found in a local gravel pit. It was clearly a dragon skull and in fact it's still on display in a local museum. The monument's artist based the shape of the dragon's head on the skull. In 1935 the skull was identified as that of a woolly rhinoceros. In 1989 a folklorist proposed that the legend of the griffin was inspired by protoceratops fossils. The griffin is a mythological creature that's been depicted in art, writing, and folklore dating back at least 5,000 years, with early variations on the monster dating back as much as 8,000 years. The griffin these days is depicted as a mixture of a lion and an eagle. It has an eagle's head, wings, and front legs, and it often has long ears, while the rest of its body is that of a lion. The griffin isn't a real animal and never was. It has six limbs, for one thing, four legs and two wings, and it also has a mixture of mammal and bird traits. I can confirm that it's a lot of fun to draw, though, and lots of great stories and books have been written about it in modern times. Ancient depictions of a griffin-like monster have been found throughout much of eastern Europe, the Middle East, the Mediterranean, northern Africa, and central Asia. Much of what we know about the griffin legend comes from ancient Greek and Roman stories, but they in turn got at least some of their stories from ancient Scythia. That's important for the hypothesis that the griffin legend was inspired by protoceratops fossils. Protoceratops lived between 75 and 71 million years ago and its fossils have been found in parts of China and Mongolia. It was a ceratopsian but it didn't belong to the family Ceratopsidae, which includes Triceratops. It grew up to about 8 feet long, or 2.5 meters, with a big skull and a neck frill, but while that sounds big, it actually was on the small size for a ceratopsian. At most it would have barely stood waist-high to an average human, so while it was heavy and compact, it was probably smaller, if not lighter, than a modern lion. It ate plants and while it had teeth, it also had a beak, sort of like a turtle's beak. Folklorist Adrienne Mayor published a number of papers and a book in the 1990s discussing the links ...

When we think of the "horned dinosaurs", we always think of Triceratops. But there were many species Ceratopsians. In this episode we'll learn about Chasmosaurus! 

Tyrannosaurus Rex, Brontosaurus, Velociraptor, Triceratops… all fake?!? No way?! It can't be?! What about all of the fossils they've found over the past 150+ years? Why would the Smithsonian and other institutions ever promote an extinct animal species that never really existed? What did they have to gain? We all grew up learning about the amazing, wonderful and terrifying world of the dinosaur. Giant reptiles that roamed the earth 25-65 million years ago and have been extinct for as long. Geez! How did their bones survive such a long period of time and stay fully intact? Why do we never find an entire dinosaur but instead just a few bones here and there… but we've filled in the gaps with such detail? Why do museums all over the world never show the actual bones but replicas of the ‘real thing' and the real bones are tucked away somewhere else? Why is there nothing recorded about dinosaurs before 1842?And what about ‘Giants'? Supersized people that may have existed in many different cultures all over the globe in various time periods that ranged from 7 to over 10 feet tall? Is everyone just telling fairy tales and stories or did extra-large people or human-like creatures once walk the planet?These are all great questions that the Tin Foil Hat Club will investigate in the 2nd Conspiracy Theory episode here on the Strong By Design podcast show!
