Hello, Ask Science listeners! This week, we're sharing the first episode of Curious State, a brand new podcast from Quick and Dirty Tips.

Could we have domesticated a T-Rex? Is the mafia really that violent? Haven't all the possible songs been written by now? Unexpected gems of knowledge are hidden all around us. Let’s dig them up, one offbeat question at a time.

A few of the curiosities you’ll uncover in this episode:

  • The 3 questions to ask yourself before domesticating a T-Rex
  • How much it would cost to feed a T-Rex over its lifetime
