Podcasts, microscope explorations, discussions, and whatever you want, relating to the history of life - from the earliest animals to the things living around us now. Please feel free to make requests! The host is Dr. Joe Botting, a palaeontologist, entomologist and general naturalist living in central Wales. Together with fellow palaeontological wife Dr. Lucy Muir, he is the discoverers of several exceptionally-preserved fossil faunas in Ordovician rocks of Wales and China (e.g. Castle Bank, Llandegley Rocks, Llanfawr, the Afon Gam Biota, and the Anji Biota), and has been involved in the discovery or description of others (Fezouata Biota, Llanfallteg Biota). Together they have published around 100 papers and hold honorary academic positions in Cardiff and Nanjing (China), but are mainly self-employed, and work as independent researchers.
