Finished listening to season 2 of @PrehistoryGuide and just gotta express my concern that a podcast host and two experts might be stuck in the Jurassic with no way home.

I really enjoyed appearing on this episode and think it's a really enjoyable journey. Even though I am mostly there to talk about arthropods I also mention plants and the moon. You should give it a listen!

I had the recent pleasure of talking about how awesome the Carboniferous is with @PrehistoryGuide - if you want to know about life on land ~315 million years ago, this is hopefully an interesting place to start :)
Huge thanks to @RussellGarwood for sharing some much-needed #Carboniferous travel advice for the latest #podcast episode! Top tip? You'd probably win in a human vs giant arthropod showdown, so don't let the creepy crawlies put you off πŸ›πŸͺ²πŸ¦‚πŸ•·οΈ

What’s not to like – take a trip to the Carboniferous with @RussellGarwood and Bill DiMichele! πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡πŸ‘‡
Are you suffering from hallucinations? Or are you simply looking at the supremely weird #Carboniferous flora? Fortunately, @NMNH's Bill DiMichele is on hand to guide you through the breath-taking world of Carboniferous swamp forests in the latest #podcast episode 🌊🌳🌱🌲🌊

It’s super interesting listening to stories about #Devonian ecosystems, it’s fun to zoom out from the fish fossils and hear about what the planet was like hundreds of million of years ago #FossilFishFriday #FossilFriday

I've started work on the Walking with Beasts review! I'll be making it as comprehensive as I can, not only covering the science and the accuracy, but the cinematography, story, and especially the music! πŸ”₯

Time to visit the Cambrian, and find out what the conveyor belt of death is. I’m sure it will make a perfect tourist attraction
Episode 4 is out now! Set your time machines for the dawn of the Phanerozoic, because this week we're heading to the #Cambrian. Huge thanks to @PalaeoSmith and @Xiaoya_Ma for guiding me through the oddest period in #prehistory! 🌊πŸͺ±πŸ¦ #palaeontology prehistoryguide.co.uk/

Don't even get me started on the other #synapsid & #temnospondyl carnivores about! A late #Palaeozoic #prehistoric adventure is not without risk. But with a little knowledge from myself & @palaeo_neil, plus some luck, you'll get back from the Permian safely. (Probably...)
What do you think your chances are against a #gorgonopsian? @PalaeoSingh provides some essential safety advice for #Permian backpackers in the latest episode! (Spoiler alert: your chances aren't great.) πŸ†πŸš‘πŸ©Ή

Replying to @palaeo_neil
I'd also advise keeping your food in secure, sealed containers to avoid attracting any hungry #therapsid carnivores to your camp. Unless you want to see the first sabertooths up close...
