About this podcast
What if two best friends (who are scientists) secretly brought back dinosaurs? But made them tiny? And then made a podcast about their top secret project? TINY DINOS is an improvised sitcom/talk show starring science novices Connor Ratliff and James III and featuring a cavalcade of special guests (Lauren Lapkus, Jason Mantzoukas, Jermaine Fowler, Adam Conover, John Hodgman, etc.) who help them navigate the perils of keeping a big (tiny) secret while maintaining a healthy (unhealthy) friendship.
