Episode 40 - Control

Welcome to the Juras-Sick Park-Cast podcast, the Jurassic Park podcast about Michael Crichton's 1990 novel Jurassic Park, and also not about that, too. 

Find the episode webpage at: Episode 40 - Control.

In this episode, my terrific guest Dr. W. Scott Persons IV joins the show to chat with me about:

Intro: Latebloomer.  Outro: Grow Old Or Don't.

The Text:

This week’s text is Lex, spanning from pages 210 – 217.

Synopsis:

Tim finds Lex hiding in a culvert under the road, and they climb out to find Dr. Grant. Meanwhile, Ed Regis climbs out from the bounders in which he’d been hiding, feeling great shame for having abandoned the kids during the tyrannosaur attack.

As Regis emerges, he’s tackled and eaten by the juvenile tyrannosaurus, which pushes Grant and the kids to escape further into the park, rather than following the road back to “safety.”

Discussions surround:

Show, don't tell; Daddy Issues; Timeline; Believe me, I know!; 

Side effects: 

May cause you to mythically believe in a second brain in your hips, and tingling in your phantom tail.
