Re-Release: Brachiosaurus
If you listened to last week’s episode on the T. rex, we’re sorry to leave you on a gigantic dinosaur sized cliffhanger for another week, but Olivia got unexpectedly swamped out in the field and we thought we’d take this opportunity to celebrate our 150th episode and look back on one of first dinosaur episodes. But don’t worry, we’ll be back ASAP with the rest of the T. rex story! For now we hope you enjoy the brachiosaurus episode, which we originally recorded in 2021.

Customer Reviews
Amazing! Totally recommend!
This podcast is amazing! Ive been listening for awhile now. Every time a new episode is released my snake sorin and I get all cozy on my bed and listen. The last 3 ant episodes have been my favourites!! They were so fascinating and I never knew how little i knew about ants. Added bonus is you two live in canada (so do i) so it’s cool to here you talk about places i know and use the metric system.
Fun and educational!
So glad my sister-in-law turned me on to this podcast!! She used to work with Olivia and I’m sure was tired of hearing me go on about ACNH 😅! This is my first animal crossing game but I have said time and again how cool it is that all of these things are introduced in the game! And now I can learn even more about these insects, fish, sea creatures and fossils!!
Great listen!
I love this podcast, great to listen too and always fun and informative. I could listen all day long!
