Just in time for the debut of a brand new dinosaur, Gnatalie, at the Museum of Natural History of Los Angeles County, Eva and Julia are joined by real-life paleontologist and National Science Foundation Postdoctoral Research Fellow at the Dinosaur Institute at the Natural History Museum of LA County - not to mention friend of the pod - Hank Woolley!

Recorded on location in the Paleontology Department at the museum, Hank shares tales of his most daring excavation adventures, the secrets behind how long it takes to name a new dinosaur, and why it's exactly as awesome as you think being a real-life Dr. Alan Grant or Dr. Ellie Sattler. Plus, we learn the 3 stages of 90’s girl, and discover that Julia was very late to the Jurassic Park Party.

And of course, travel trivia and a question you’d really think would have an obvious answer after six movies, a Universal Studios ride, and enough jump scares to make even Dr. Ian Malcom’s wardrobe white.
