Dino

Welcome to the ancient epoch of Before Phones (BP) where the dinosaurs roam

It was a Time of Great Phonelessness Granted, it was a bizarre time. People actually had to talk to each other face to face. And there were only three channels on the TV. As unpleasant as that sounds, somehow it worked (although I have my doubts). But how exactly did people survive (even thrive) before phones? Our podcast explores the latest discoveries about the Pre-Phone era, including interviews with its survivors, the latest archeological finds and other innovative research techniques.

Dinosaur interviews himself

What a wonderful guest

What’s the secret …

To a good interview?

Rare interview with an even rarer dinosaur

Some would say ample research on the topic you’re trying to discuss. Others would say having a good set of questions. Still others would say inviting in a good guest. But for me, the secret to a good interview starts with the host. It isn’t so much the questions or the answers as it is the good conversation to be had. And really, for that to occur: Is there really a need for anyone else? Answer: I would say yes. The caveat is you better be comfortable having a dialog with yourself first. And that’s why in many ways this is a breakthrough interview.

Among the topics we cover: My new idea for a great app, new details on the Time of Great Phonelessness (i.e. Before Phones), how phones stole our memories, the difference between prescient and clairvoyant, why a ranger kept returning to the swamp and what made him stop, the difference between a tree and a large blade of grass, why cigarettes are healthier than cell phones, how banjos went viral, and more.
