Neil Shubin should do a star talk segment with neil de grasse on the topic of linking the poles to the cosmos... amazing work and discovery from an amazing paleontologist and a true inspiration to me.
GREAT podcast. I loved hearing about all the bigshots in the field. Prof Shubin is a very charismatic guy, I bet his classes are never missed. D.A., J.D., NYC
At around 30:00 minutes in, I remember figuring out the continents had moved when I was 6 years old (1958) and saw a world map in my first grade class. I even commented to my teacher that I could see it plainly as South America and Africa obviously fitted together at one time. She, of course, told me I was wrong and that the continents were always where they were then. I didn't believe her and was happy to learn later that I was right. LOL
Great podcast . One of my favourites when it comes to science . Just one thing ... Is it really necessary to have the camera so close ? All I see it's his head .lol
Donald Prothero claims (on Jackson Wheats You Tube channel) that (in his words) alot of paleontologists don't buy that a metroid is what caused the KT extinction since many forms of life in the Mesozoic were already dying off.
ReptileEvolution.com includes 1659 taxa (genera), including humans, bats, whales, turtles, snakes, dinosaurs, mammal-like reptiles, amphibian-like reptiles, frogs and fish all the way back to Cambrian chordates. With this cladogram (family tree) based on physical traits (not DNA) one can trace the ancestry of any included genus. Virtually all sister taxa look alike, so the gaps are small. Thus, with this cladogram one can also see how microevolution leads to macroevolution. Cladogram and links start here: reptileevolution.com/reptile-tree.htm
That makes sense, her research was in the 40s and 50s in the US, so she would of been told that in the 40s sometime. I completely buy it, her first genetics course was in 1921, society was very sexist back then

excellent podcast. I'll order the book. Keep 'em coming Prof Shermer. D.A., J.D., NYC
Asking "what is the function of half a wing" makes as much sense as "dig me half a hole".
Very good interesting discussion
Great podcast . One of my favourites when it comes to science .
Just one thing ... Is it really necessary to have the camera so close ? All I see it's his head .lol
Thank you, Mr. Shermer
Were Gould’s book collection and essays etc donated to Stanford university libraries by his widow.
Another excellent discussion.
Thanx a lot for opening my eyes
Great podcast!
Thank you, so much. 😊
