Your Charmosaurs crew is here again with a cool new episode. This month, we're discussing the works of the late, great Brian Franczak as it appears in The National Audubon Pocket Guide: Dinosaurs. Rolls off the tongue, doesn't it? Mark, Natee and Gemma discuss the merits of an unfairly forgotten palaeo master of the ninetes. Then, old familiar voices Steve White and Darren Naish come on the show to discuss their new palaeoart compendium, Mesozoic Art II. Who is the ninetiesest palaeoartist? How excited are we about the new Prehistoric Planet? Has Gemma been spoiled on rubber dinosaurs? Is there such a thing as dinosaur-themed spirituality? And has anyone outside of the UK ever heard of Gorgo? All shall be revealed in episode 44!

It's that time of year again, even though it's at a different time each year. Natee, Gemma and Marc attended the very first iteration of DinoCon, the spiritual successor to TetZooCon, but more bigger, more dinosaurier and more in Exeter! Join our crew as they reminisce about their adventures and misadventures, the perilous journey to Devon, the informative talks and highlights, the colourful characters, the quiz, the costumes and the merch. Is DinoCon a worthy successor to TetZooCon? What changed, what stayed the same? Did Gemma get told off for interviewing people? What made Marc shed a tear? And will Natee ever not get Covid? Join us at the Big Bony Club and find out all about DinoCon 2025!

Episode 42 (insert Hitchhiker's Guide reference here) sees Marc, Natee and Gemma team up with Andrew Stück, the one and only Dino Dad, as we tackle surely one of the most divisive topics we have ever discussed on this show: the 2025 revival of Walking With Dinosaurs. Will it be a beloved classic like the original 1999 series, an embarassing turkey like the 2013 movie, or something in between? Are we as blown away as we were when we saw our first Diplodocus? Are we as menaced as we were by Liopleurodon? Are our heartstrings tugged as they were when we saw the last journey of Ornithocheirus? Are we as endeared as we were by Leallynasaura? What place is there for a Walking With Dinosaurs in this post-Prehistoric Planet world? Who skipped through the segments of modern-day palaeontology? Can Jim Kirkland save the day? And, most crucially of all: what did Andrew's children think? It's all here in today's action packed episode.
