Episode description

(image source: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liopleurodon by DiGbd)

Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Lexi Ryan discuss Liopleurodon, an infamous sea monster whose size was heavily exaggerated by a certain British documentary, to the disappointment of kaiju fans everywhere. From the Late Jurassic, this 28-foot pliosaurid was still the top predator in its oceanic environment, but that can only offset so much of an overall letdown. Sure, it was big, but I want bigger! BIGGER!!! Eh, whatever.
