This week we try something a little different — the ⚡️THUNDER ROUND ⚡️ as Jeff Goldblum says in Jurassic Park Uno, “Your [science nerds] were so preoccupied with whether they could, they didn't stop to think if they should!”In this special episode, Julian and Trace snagged every dinosaur related question we could fit in a shaving cream can. Then, like a couple of velociraptors in a kitchen we made a huge mess of things. There’s a new Jurassic World movie, so we figured if not now — then when? Maybe people are going to go DINO-CRAZY! (we hope). If you have a Jurassic-leaning friend send them this episode; we spared no expense on it!QUESTIONSJulian:“How is it possible for the largest male dinosaurs to mount the females?” from Stephen“What if the dinosaurs were able to evolve further- would they have eventually gotten to "human" level brains/consciousness?” from Tori“What if dinosaurs weren’t wiped out what would things be like?” from Sam“What if pterosaurs had survived the mass extinction that wiped out the non-avian dinosaurs?” from Adele“What would have happened if the meteor that caused dinosuars to go extinct never hit the earth?” from Steven“What would happen if a meteor hit a flat earth?” from TylerTrace:"If there had been an intelligent dinosaur species which evolved some civilization, would we able to detect it?" from Udo (?)“What does a dinosaur taste like?” from Pat”How likely would it be for something like Jurassic park to exist in the near future?” from MayaDo you have an absurd question?

Turns out plants are absolute CHATTERBOXES! They talk so much that they make Julian look like a silent partner (he’s not). Instead, he uses a silly German accent to accost our guest Maren Hunsberger all about plant communication. And, speaking of intense interrogations, Star Wars’ Tatooine gets a lot of play in the pop-science space news, but here at home having two suns is way hotter, and also (surprisingly) WAY COLDER!QUESTIONSJulian: "What would happen if our Solar System had two suns" from HannahMaren: "If plants ‘scream’ when cut, do they talk for other reasons?" from XanderDo you have an absurd question?
