Top Gen!
A very enjoyable series, listened to it twice and I might give it another listen to soak up more modern Dino facts!

Eternal Dino Fan
I never grew out of dinosaur loving, but this podcast is a perfect way of injecting some more paleobabble into daily chores! Absolutely love it. On top of it all the presentation is refreshingly quirky!

What a treat!
I am one of those young dinosaur enthusiasts who never grew out of it, so this was a real treat for me! Well researched and accessible, a really fascinating listen. I hope there will be more episodes to come!
My favourite is Baryonyx!

Thought it was for adults
I thought it would be for adults - more tailored towards kids or adults with kids

Brilliant, engaging and informative
I really loved it. It is engaging and fun, and you really end up having a good understanding of dinosaurs and other creatures.
I only missed Prof Garrod telling us which is his favourite dinosaur!! I wish he had asked all the palaeontologists in the series which was their favourite!

David Attenborough eat your heart out!
Wonderful little podcast. I was a huge dinosaur fan as a kid and I was amazed how much has been changed and developed in 20 years. I mean...dinosaurs had feathers and were potentially ginger. Not only that but knowledge that the oviraptors may not have eaten eggs, but been protecting their own brood...blew my mind. I love how this area is constantly changing. Please could we have season 2?

Excellent
Excellent work, well paced, thought through and very listenable. Has none of the overly long awkward silences or pointless musical interludes of many other audible originals i’ve heard. I’ve listened from start to finish, and it’s very accessible to young adults or even interested children. Well done Ben.
