BBC Radio 4 - The Infinite Monkey Cage, Series 9, Science Rocks!

A witty, irreverent and unashamedly rational look at the world of fossils and geology.

The Infinite Monkey Cage digs deep to uncover some of the fossils that rewrote history, and the science that revealed how Earth's geology changed.

Science Rocks! This week, Brian Cox and Robin Ince are travelling back in time, to discuss when and how geology became a science, what the dinosaurs ever did for us and why cryptids, creatures of popular mythology, hold such fascination for those on the fringes of science. Joining the panel are paleobiologist Dave Martill, geologist and BBC broadcaster Hermione Cockburn, the comedian Ross Noble and legendary actor, writer and performer, Eric Idle. Producer: Rami Tzabar.

Intelligent speech, the most insightful journalism, the wittiest comedy, the most fascinating features and the most compelling drama and readings anywhere in UK radio.
