Episode 69 - John Hammond

  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Juras-Sick Park-Cast podcast, the Jurassic Park podcast about Michael Crichton's 1990 novel Jurassic Park, and also not about that, too.

    Find the episode webpage at: Episode 69 - John Hammond.

    In this episode (stream it here!), my terrific guest June Hatfield joins the show to chat with me about:

    Seattle, the Pacific North West and the Olympic Peninsula, Cray Supercomputers, Olympic National Forests, ancient forests, the "Grunge Scene," the tradition of re-reading Jurassic Park every summer, paperback editions of Jurassic Park, and First Edition of Jurassic Park, changes between different editions of Jurassic Park, writing tension and timing in fiction, Crichton's writing, Dr. Henry Wu, sparing expenses, Robert Muldoon, transportation to and from Isla Nublar, JP's target audience, and much more!

    Plus dinosaur news about:

    • The First Troodontid from the Upper Cretaceous Baruungoyot Formation of Mongolia (Harenadraco prima)
    • The Phylogenetic Relationships and Evolutionary History of the Armoured Dinosaurs (Ankylosauria, Stegosauria, Nodosauridae)

    Featuring the music of Snale https://snalerock.bandcamp.com/

    Intro: Toucans, and the Outro: Hummingbird.

    The Text:

    First, my essay Lex and Big Rex

    "Lex and Big Rex have a symbolic partnership in Jurassic Park, which shows that only after losing a series of father figures can Lex find the strength to face the fear and uncertainty of her parents’ divorce – which is symbolized by the Big Rex."

    Then:

    Jurassic Park (1993): Sc. 4 "Introducing John Hammond."

    David Koepp's first draft, and Malia Scotch-Marmo's rewrite of Michael Crichton's draft of the script.

    Corrections:

    Side effects:

    May cause you to try and pass your failed bread attempts as just an unlevened Kosher product.

    Thank you!
