Episode 50 – X-Treme Manimals!
This week on the podcast…
00:00:00 – Charlie is taking point this week to welcome everyone to the Science… sort of golden anniversary. Hooray! We made it to 50! Next stop… 51! (Obviously)
00:06:11 – There are a lot of animals in the world worth talking about. The Paleopals crank through as many as they can with this omni-list segment of some of our favorite extremophiles! (Not really extremophiles but the word was thematically appropriate.)
- The fastest animals on earth
- Animals that basically can’t be killed
- Monstrous Beasts: 14 Bizarre Dinosaurs and Extinct Species
00:43:44 – Trailer Trash Talk is feeling monstrous this week so we take a trip to the Mexican border with the trailer for Monsters.
00:51:18 – We’re sad to report that last year we lost a Chinese snake with a foot when it was tragically beaten to death with a shoe by a woman who caught it crawling up her wall. Hard to blame her.
00:56:29 – PaleoPOW brings us a question about the Hulk which makes Charlie angry (you won’t like him when he’s angryz), a ‘critical’ review from a ‘pal’ of ‘Pods’ over at iTunes, and some good old fashioned spam debunkery!

I would go with Semicentennial. Semi is from the latin word for half. Hemi is from the greek word. the cent- prefix is from the latin word for 100. It would make sense to keep you language origins together.
