82. Tall Tales #8 Kasai Rex Apr 11, 2020

Show notes

This week on Tall Tales we talk about the cousin of the Mokele Mbembe, the Kasai Rex. While not a sauropod like the Mbembe, this is a man eating, elephant eating Tyrannosaurus Rex living in the heart of Africa! So gather around the Campfire and listen to us break it down.
A small disclaimer: Due to COVID-19 we are not able to meet up in person to record our episodes, but we are still committed to getting content out to you all, so please bear with us as we experiment with different alternatives to recording online as it will result in fluctuating audio quality.
I hope you still enjoy this episode although the audio is not great. We have since found another alternative to this method which records higher quality audio and we have also upgraded our mics. So this time next week we should sounding normalish more or less.
