About this listen
In this episode of Life’s Tough, Explorers are Tougher, Dr. Kenneth Lacovara joins Richard Wiese to discuss dinosaurs, discovery, and the lessons Earth’s history can teach about the future.
From uncovering the largest dinosaurs in Argentina to saving a fossil park behind a Lowe’s in New Jersey, Lacovara shares how chance, teamwork, and curiosity shaped his career. He describes the Edelman Fossil Park, where visitors can find their own 65-million-year-old fossils, and explains how the site may reveal the exact moment of the asteroid impact that ended the dinosaurs’ reign.
Their conversation explores how science can inspire wonder and responsibility. Lacovara’s reflections on luck, loss, and purpose show that history’s greatest lessons lie beneath our feet—and that preserving our planet begins with choosing hope.
This is Life's Tough, Explorers Are Tougher, with your host, Richard Weiss. Scratch the surface of an explorer and you'll find an adventure and a great story. This show is about their tales.
