Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Lawrence Mack discuss Ichthyosaurus, the reptile trying to be a dolphin trying to be a fish; sheesh, pick a career path already. From the Early Jurassic, this 10-foot marine reptile dominated the early Mesozoic seas only to be replaced by more efficient creatures later on like the mosasaurs. You had your fifteen minutes of fame, Ichthyosaurus, but the real world comes knocking for us all.
