In this episode (which was inspired by my trip to Alberta Canada) we will discuss the origins of the Canadian rocky mountains of Alberta and of course the glaciers that have helped shape them. We will also examine some of the beliefs of the First Nations' People of Alberta and discuss the origins of the NHL, the most popular sport in Canada.

But let's be real…..I'm really going to talk about dinosaurs…... .Alberta is a dinosaur fossil hotbed, commonly referred to as the dinosaur capital of the world and home to the UNESCO site known as Dinosaur Provincial Park which has yielded tons of dinosaur fossils. And yes….I got to go there. And for a guy that was inspired to teach science and be a geology major by dinosaurs, it was a true dream.
