About this listen

In this episode of Deep Nonsense, we tackle the science behind one of the most iconic movie ideas ever: bringing dinosaurs back to life using ancient insect DNA.

Is the Jurassic Park concept just movie magic, or are we actually getting close to resurrecting long-extinct species? With help from Google Gemini’s deep research tools, we dig into fossilized mosquitoes, the fragility of DNA over time, and the real-world breakthroughs in cloning and genetic engineering.

Join us as we break down what’s possible, what’s plausible, and what’s pure prehistoric nonsense.
