ОБ ЭТОМ ЭПИЗОДЕ
Wednesday, August 12, 2026 — National Middle Child Day
One of the most famous dinosaurs in the world was discovered because someone noticed a few bones sticking out of the ground. A vanished animal reminds us what can be lost when we do not understand what we have. And a heavy metal band finds a way to become a worldwide phenomenon.
Today’s episode explores Sue the T. rex, the extinct quagga, and the album that helped Metallica reach an entirely new audience.
Birthday: Mark Knopfler — the guitarist and songwriter whose unique style helped create some of the most recognizable sounds in rock music.
Also, somewhere out there, a middle child is still explaining that they are not Jan Brady.
