The 366 daily episodes in 2014 were chronological snapshots of earth history, beginning with the Precambrian in January and on to the Cenozoic in December. You can find them all in the index in the right sidebar. In 2015, the daily episodes for each month were assembled into monthly packages (link in index at right), and a few new episodes were posted from 2015-18. You may be interested in a continuation of this blog on Substack at this location. Thanks for your interest!

The Pennsylvanian Episodes

Running time 1 hour 45 minutes



This episode is the seventh monthly package that combines the daily episodes for July 2014, covering the Pennsylvanian Period of the Paleozoic Era. As with the Mississippian, I apologize for not getting this assemblage done on time – my summer has been pretty complicated.

As usual, I’ve left the references to specific dates in the podcast so that you can, if you want, go to the specific blog post that has links and illustrations for that episode. They are all indexed on the right-hand side of the blog.

As the year continues, there will be occasional new episodes in addition to these monthly assemblies.

If you have questions or comments, please let me know, either here on the blog – there’s a page for Questions– or contact me by email at rigibson at earthlink.net. I’ll try to respond. You can of course also leave a review on iTunes. I really do appreciate your feedback.

Episode 371: Listener Questions



Today for Episode number 371 I’m going to try to address some of the questions I've received on the blog or through the podcast. A fair number of these were addressed in comments here on the blog, and I usually tried to answer them here, but listeners may not have seen or been aware of them.

Thanks for listening!
