Fortunately, the I Know Dino! podcast hosts are here to parse dino-fact from dino-fiction and dig into the incredible history of paleontology along the way. .

I will definitely have to share this one of my friends. He's obsessed with basketball so he's get a kick out of it!
I did actually know that! I forgot it was in the back of my mind though, I'm not really into basketball, I play volleyball, track, and field. Do you play basketball, or just enjoy watching?
enjoy watching
Nice!
Oh, that's cool! In general, I don't know much about baseball, but the concept is pretty similar to kickball, am I right?
Yes you are correct
Yes You are
I hope everyone's doing great, quick question: Original oreos or golden oreos? My answer: I for sure like the golden ones way more! I'm not really a fan of cookies and cream...
Original all the way! You can't mess with a classic!
I like both actually.
ORIGINAL
I've never heard of golden ones before?
Or the vanilla ones?
I would love to try them!
You definitely should!
Also, what is your opinion on my new background?
Nice touch! Green really fits your avatar!
It’s cool! The green looks great with your avatar :)
It's kind of giving Mediterranean olive color meets pickle, which I'm here for!
I like the color!!!
Ooo, I really like it!

Yeah, flowering trees are gorgeous! Thanks for replying!

YESSS, bees and wasps are my biggest phobia! And yup, running outside is just so fun! Thanks for replying and you're welcome!
1. To go outside <3 2. All the snow melting.... It's all wet and muddy. Where I come from, spring almost doesn't exist 3. Flowers or beauty... Like no, actually 4. Shorts and a t-shirt 5. I don't listen to one specific one XD | Thanks for the quiz!!

1. Gardening! 2. Mosquitos 3. bumblebees 4. t-shirt, perhaps... 5. Also Here Comes the Sun! I love the Beatles :) Wonderful quiz, thanks a lot!
Gardening! I love that! My mom's an avid gardener so I know how rewarding it can be! And yes, Here Comes the Sun is iconic! Thanks for replying and you're welcome!
No problem!
YOU KNOW HERE COMES THE SUN?
Yeah, you like it too? :)
Yeah! I like old music, along with new music, so it's not often I meet someone around my age, who knows what the heck I'm talking about!
Omigosh, mosquitos are such a pain! When I was in Thailand, I got bitten all over my feet, they ended up barely fitting in my shoes
I am usually the target of mosquitos, that is frustrating....:(
1. Look at the beautiful flowers 2. Getting sick 3. Sunshine 4. It depends 5. A Million To One (it's my favorite song to listen to all year)
Yess, sunshine! I really miss the sun in the winter! Thanks for replying!
1. Watch the flowers bloom 2. Pollen allergies 3. Tulips 4. Maybe a long sleeve? 5. Worship!! Thanks so much for the spring quiz!
Yeah, the flowers are beautiful! And yess on number 5! I love worship all year long but there's something about spring that makes me love it even more! Thanks for replying and you're welcome!
1. I like the weather, there's a little bit of everything - sun and rain, clear and cloudy skies, hot and cold (volatile, but not unpleasantly so) 2. Life gets so busy, school especially 3. spring potential energy, I'm not even kidding T_T (cramming for AP physics next month, can you tell?? 😅) 4. It's the same every year lol - I transition from the winter (long sleeves, long pants) to the spring (short sleeves, long pants) then finally summer (short sleeves, short pants) 5. ceilings by Lizzy McAlpine, though not necessarily because of the season itself :P Thank you for the quiz!! I enjoy your questions, and happy spring to you and everyone :)
Spring potential energy? I'm going to have to steal that, I love it! AP physics?? I'm taking a mixture of physics and chemistry and I finally finished physics and this last semester is chemistry so I feel your pain! Thanks so much for replying and I'm glad you enjoyed it!
We have the same weather, except replace the rain with possible snow. Nooooo, I hope physics goes well. I'm not quite in HS yet, but I'm doing AP®/College Computer Science Principles on KA, so it's not NEARLY as intense. Happy spring to you, too!!
