My name is Andy and I’m a science interpreter. I worked as a park ranger at Grand Teton National Park and now I work at a science museum in North Carolina. I have two degrees in geology and my true passion in life is fossils. I studied mosasaurs for my masters’ thesis. This blog is home to all my nerdy thoughts and ideas and I update it on a semi regular basis. Things I like to talk about are paleontology, Pokemon, Batman, alternate history, and Godzilla to name a few. I also upload a podcast I do with my fiance where we talk about nerdy things as well. If you want a glimpse of some of my favorite articles try these
Orthogenesis and the Irish Elk
TImeline of the Jabba’s Palace book
An analysis of the alternate history series “Timeline 191”
The different incarnations of Batman’s villain Bane
The Best Pokemon Games and Types for a Single Type Run (I do a whole series of these)
What does the Batman villain Poison Ivy eat?
The Unapologetic Nerd

Awesome! Thanks for the nomination!
Why didn’t you cover BattleBots Season 3; you were so in to BattleBots.
I honestly almost missed season 3 because I didn’t realize it was back on. By the time I did I was living in the middle of nowhere with no internet or TV access to watch it do it would’ve been hard for me to review it.
BUT since you brought it up AND I have internet again. I’ll review season 4! I’ll catch up on season 3 and give my thoughts on season 4. Thanks for the heads up!
Hey Andy, I’m writing a paper about the Genndy Tartakovsky and his influence during the Cartoon Renaissance. I’m referencing your blog in the paper, and need to cite the source, but I can’t find your last name anywhere (which is ideal for citations in MLA format). What is it? It’s due tomorrow, so if you don’t get back to me, I’ll just use another source. Thank you!
-Chris
Hey Chris, you can use my name Connolly as a citation, thanks for the reference!
