Description

The gang discusses two papers about archosaur heads, one of which is actually about archosaurs with big heads. Also, Amanda's cat gets revenge for the podcast thumbnail, James wants to be a super villain, Curt decides to drink, and we all design better dinosaurs. Also, this cockatoo gif is a thing that should be known and celebrated. http://i.imgur.com/mZEnTJc.mp4 Midi music from freemidi.org References:  Gates, Terry A., Chris Organ, and Lindsay E. Zanno.
