“What Is Palaeontology?” – GCC #17 with Wayne Telford – Dinosaur Fossils, Climate Change, Giant Insects & Mass Extinction Events

What is Palaeontology (or Paleontology for you Americans)? How do we find fossils today and what do they help with? Did giant insects exist on earth, and if so, how? All of these questions and many more are answered in this week’s episode of Genuine Chit-Chat!

Mike speaks with his Palaeontologist friend Wayne, where they also discuss dinosaurs, mass extinction events, some of the work Wayne has done at university (including going to sites discovering dinosaur remains with some flesh still attached) about evolutionary life in general and much more, so it’s one not to miss!

Wayne is also an accomplished author and has released two fiction books, which delve into events surrounding 19th century London; A Light In The Mist, which follows a young Dr Jekyll while the second novel (Scarcrow) has a different protagonist surrounding similar events from another perspective.

Wayne wants to spread a message of hope, telling everyone & anyone to follow their calling, despite what others may say, as you can change the world, if you have the dedication to do so, which were the inspiration of said novels.

“Be The Beacon Of Hope” – GCC #16 – with Wayne Telford – Changing The World With Ideas, Jekyll And Hyde & Inspiration

This week, Mike speaks with Wayne Telford, a palaeontologist who has written two novels surrounding 19th century London; A Light In The Mist, which follows a young Dr Jekyll while the second novel (Scarcrow) has a different protagonist surrounding similar events from another perspective.

Although they discuss Wayne’s books, the creative process and what made Wayne decide to create these fantastic works, they delve deep into individualism and the idea of good vs evil, as well as life’s purpose, morality, the wealth divide, societal issues and so much more, so if you aren’t interested in the books, this is a great chat about the human condition (and we’re sure you’ll be more intrigued by the books after the chat anyway)!

Wayne wants to spread a message of hope, telling everyone & anyone to follow their calling, despite what others may say, as you can change the world, if you have the dedication to do so.

Next week, Mike & Wayne chat about palaeontology, including dinosaurs, fossils, mass extinction events, giant insects that rules the earth, some of the work Wayne has done at university (including going to sites discovering dinosaur remains with some flesh still attached) and about evolutionary life in general, so it’s one not to miss!
