Our Editor's Take

I Know Dino: The Big Dinosaur Podcast reveals everything about the creatures who used to roam the earth. Hosts Sabrina and Garret are passionate about all things dinosaurs. They share their enthusiasm and talk with today's most knowledgeable dinosaur specialists. The hosts interview paleontologists, paleo artists, filmmakers, authors, and other dinosaur professionals. They promise listeners they'll "always be up to date" on dinosaur news.

Garret and Sabrina met, fell in love, and had a dinosaur-themed wedding in 2014. Soon after, they started I Know Dino. Almost every week, it seems like someone discovers a new kind of dinosaur. Yet, Garret and Sabrina had never found a weekly dinosaur podcast. The newlyweds decided it was time to fix that problem.

Those newer to dinosaur studies can start the podcast with "Episode 0." It begins with the basics and prepares novices for more advanced discussions. They'll be ready to hear about "the oldest diplodocoid" and "Egyptian titanosaurs" in no time. Listeners may share Garret's and Sabrina's excitement about the new dicraeosaurid sauropod. It may amaze listeners to hear that Brazil is the proud owner of a Ubiraja fossil.

When paleontologist Cary Woodruff joins, he discusses dinosaur illnesses. Cary talks about Dolly, a non-avian dinosaur who got a respiratory infection. How does he know? Podcast listeners will have to find out.

"The Best Dinosaur Museums in the World" offers tips for those eager to see dinosaur remains. Sabrina and Garret have visited many of the museums on their list. These natural history museums may have real fossils on exhibit. If not, they at least have recreations for teaching purposes. Their favorite is the American Museum of Natural History in New York City. It has more than 100 specimens on exhibit. Podcast listeners may soon start searching for the museums nearest them.

Every episode of I Know Dino: The Big Dinosaur Podcast includes "dinosaur news this week." The hosts fill their discussions with fascinating facts and stories. Listeners can learn what the planet was like millions of years ago and which creatures ruled above all. New episodes appear weekly.
