Most theropod dinosaurs are sleek predators built for speedy movement and efficient hunting. Therizinosaurs are unusual. They’re slow and stocky and, in many ways, more like the famous plant-eating dinosaurs. This episode, we’ll explore the diversity of therizinosaurs, the winding path that paleontologists took to understand them, the many ways they became specialized for a diet of plants, and what was going on with those claws.
In the news: Parasaurolophus crests, Scottish bears, anglerfish evolution, and Clovis diets.

Episode 206 - Vestigial Structures
Evolution involves the innovation of new features, but even more reduction of old features. Those reduced features might disappear, develop in a new direction, or just linger as a functionless evidence of deep ancestry. This episode, we explore how we identify vestigial traits, how they help us understand evolutionary history, and the various evolutionary paths vestigial structures can take.
In the news: giant worm lizards, drumstick evolution, dinosaur poop, and pterosaur transitions.

Episode 205 - Parasitic Plants
Not all plants rely on the sun for their energy. Thousands of species are adapted for stealing nutrients from other plants. This episode, Aly joins us to explore the diversity and evolution of parasitic plants, their varied lifestyles, and their impacts on their hosts. We also examine the surprising nature of the parasitic plant fossil record.
In the news: a frozen sabertooth kitten, plesiosaur swimming, wing evolution, and dinosaur body armor.

Episode 204 - The Messinian Salinity Crisis
Around six million years ago, the Mediterranean Sea dried up, wreaking havoc with local marine life and leaving a dramatic legacy in the geologic record in the form of massive salt deposits. This episode, we’ll explore the evidence for this event, why it happened, how it ended, and the impact it left in the fossil record.
In the news: marine crocs, giant cicadas, giant tadpoles, and drowning bats.
