Joe Marler's Things People Do
Crowd Network
Joe Marler used to hate people, but then he met Tom Fordyce, and a load of ordinary people doing extraordinary things, and a podcast was born that changed his mind forever. It might just change your life too. Because everyone is interesting if you ask the right questions. And this is a show about all the weird and wonderful things people do. Together, Joe and Tom meet astronauts, teachers, marine biologists, cheesemakers, prison guards and everyone in between. Along the way, they’ve learned things that have blown their minds, heard stories that have made them laugh until it hurts, and – well, felt a whole lot better about the world around them and the people that fill it.

Our guest this week is Dr. David Hone, a palaeontologist (yes, like Ross from Friends), and he is here to blow our minds with amazing facts about Dinosaurs. Could you have a pet Velociraptor?

About Dominatrixes: Wild fetishes, spanking parties and a squirming Joe Marler
