Gemma, Natee, and Marc are back for another attempt at entertaining prehistorically inclined people with carefully edited commentary and interviews with people who actually know what they're talking about. In this episode, David Armsby's back and better than ever, Darren Naish's hair is slicker than ever, and Gemma interviews palaeobotanist and artist Julianne Kiely, who's here to save us all from painfully generic and/or inaccurate flora in palaeoart.

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.

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

Episode 41: A Salute to Sovák

2025/05/30

Episode 41 of the famous Chasmosaurs Podcast is here, and it's a bittersweet one. Today's episode is a tribute to the recently departed Czech palaeoartist Jan Sovák (1953 - 2025) and his frankly ginormous body of work. So ginormous in fact, that we just had to dedicate an entire episode to him. But there's more to talk about. For one thing, there's the new Walking With Dinosaurs series, which we refuse to review in this episode! Also, there's a whole bunch of other palaeomedia coming, as well! Why

For Vintage Dinosaur Art, Marc, Gemma and Natee go back to 1950's Denmark and discuss a rare treat from illustrator Verner Hancke, or rather from Gemma's attic. Will Gemma and

Just in time to make sure it's not an April Fools joke comes episode 39 of the world-famous Chasmosaurs podcast! It's time once again to talk about that Grand Signeur of palaeoart, his Lordship John Sibbick, King of the Isle of Wight (maybe). This time, we're looking at the lesser-known followup to the classic Normanpedia, the grandly-titled WHEN DINOSAURS RULED THE EARTH!!! After that, Marc has a chat with Swiss author and historian T.K.

Then, Gemma and Marc interview Yasmin Grooters, head of the dinosaur lab at Naturalis Leiden, who recently finished work on a whole herd of Triceratops! Will Natee narrate the

As every year, Marc, Natee and Gemma visited TetZooCon, Darren Naish’ big annual London event about animals, palaeontology, palaeoart and all things tetrapod. And this was a special edition indeed. Not only has this been the last ever edition of the Tetrapod Zoology Conference in its current form (more on which on the show) but we actually gave a talk this time! And what’s more, the talk has been recorded and is included in full on this very special, extra long episode. So indulge yourself, park

Rise and shine, the LITC podcast is here again! We have some colourful and pretty gnarly palaeoart to show you from the spectacularly-named Tudor Humphries. For the interview, Marc and Natee discuss the lovely - and somewhat controversial - book The Iguanodon's Horn, with its author and illustrator, the award-winning Sean Rubin. Is making fun of outdated palaeoart tropes fair game? Will we keep comparing dinosaurs to fish? Why is there a tiger in Africa? Will Natee finally admit that T. R. is their

Marc interviews the esteemed Stavros Svenson Kulindadromaeus Kundromichalis on his fabulous book on the dinosaurs of the Triassic. Have we polished up our Swedish?

We explore the work of Mark Hallett, the man Marc once declared his Favourite Palaeoartist Ever, as it appears in Stephen and Sylvia Czerkas' Dinosaurs: A Global View, also featuring works by John Sibbick and Douglas Henderson.

This month's Vintage Dinosaur Art is illustrated with the sculptures of Arthur Hayward and others and is an approach that we at least would very much enjoy seeing a return of in newer publications.

Marc, Niels and Natee discuss a favourite from the early 90's: Donna Braginetz' brilliant Dinosaurium, the dream museum in book form. In a not dissimilar vein, Marc and Niels interview Matt Dempsey, whose musculoskeletal dinosaur reconstructions are a great help to palaeoartists everywhere.
