Episode description

Host Matthew Donald and guest co-host Stephen Curro discuss Stegouros, a dinosaur that decided club tails or spike tails weren't cool enough so it went with a mace tail, and let's be honest, it's pretty frigging cool. From the Late Cretaceous, this 6-foot ankylosaurid had enough of predator's crap and smashed its spikey mace-tail-thingy directly into their hearts and ruptured their internal organs... at least if this was a movie. In real life it probably just waved it back and forth to intimidate. Real life is a lot lamer, you see.
