BRINGING PREHISTORY TO LIFE & INSPIRING THE NEXT GENERATION OF SCIENTISTS! | JIMMY WALDRON AT TEDx ORLANDO 2026! 🎤✨

What if discovering the secrets of dinosaurs could unlock a lifelong passion for science, curiosity, and exploration? 🔬🦕

@wealthstrategymedia and @tweebleapp had the incredible opportunity to interview Jimmy Waldron, TEDx Orlando 2026 speaker, paleontologist, educator, and founder of Dinosaurs Will Always Be Awesome (DWABA)! 🎥

🦖 From uncovering the mysteries of prehistoric life to helping discover a giant ancient marine reptile, Jimmy has dedicated his work to making science exciting, interactive, and accessible to everyone!

Through Dinosaurs Will Always Be Awesome, Jimmy brings the wonders of natural history directly to students, families, and communities through hands-on educational experiences, inspiring young minds to explore, question, and discover the world around them.

🌟 His message is powerful: Science isn't just something you memorize in a classroom. It's something you experience, explore, and become part of!

At TEDx Orlando 2026, Jimmy brought a fascinating perspective on how dinosaurs can spark curiosity, encourage discovery, and empower everyday people to become part of the scientific process.

We were thrilled to connect with Jimmy and highlight his extraordinary mission to make education engaging, inspire future generations, and prove that learning can truly be an adventure! 🚀

This Saturday, TEDxOrlando started to feel very real.

Our speakers came together for our full-day rehearsal, stepping onto a slightly smaller red dot to deliver the talks they’ve spent months developing, questioning, rewriting, and rehearsing.

And what a day it was.

We heard powerful ideas. We laughed. We learned. We had moments that stopped the room in its tracks.

But more than anything, we got a glimpse of what October 17 is going to feel like when these talks are delivered on the TEDxOrlando stage.

Here are a few moments from an incredible day with our 2026 speakers.

The next time they step onto a red dot, it’ll be at the Linda W. Chapin Theater.

🎟️ Join us in the room: tedxorlando.live

What can a dinosaur bone teach us about becoming scientists? 🦖

Quite a lot, according to TEDxOrlando speaker Jimmy Waldron.

We asked Jimmy why dinosaurs are such a powerful vehicle for creating citizen scientists — and he brought along something special to demonstrate his answer: the hip bone of an Apatosaurus.

For Jimmy, dinosaurs can be a gateway to curiosity — encouraging people to ask questions, investigate the world around them, and discover that science isn’t something reserved for scientists.

Watch Jimmy explain what we can learn from a piece of a dinosaur that walked the Earth millions of years ago.

Then hear more from Jimmy live at TEDxOrlando: The Space Between on October 17.

What makes a city feel like home?
Can someone else own your identity?
Can awe make us more resilient?
Who decides what history remembers?
Can laughter change the way we survive hardship?
And that's only the beginning.

This October, 13 people will step onto the TEDxOrlando stage carrying 13 very different ideas.

Because sometimes one question is enough to change the way you see something you've known your entire life.

13 speakers.
13 questions.
One room.

Welcome to Oak Street, where the lawns are tidy, the families are complicated, and the dinosaurs are hungry. 🦖

For his latest Nerdspresso column, Jeff Stanford took paleontologist and longtime podcast partner Jimmy Waldron to a preview of The End of Oak Street at the Orlando Science Center.

Jeff found a popcorn adventure somewhere between Spielberg, Bradbury, Poltergeist, and Jurassic Park. Jimmy found scientifically questionable dinosaurs, awkward prehistoric romance, and further evidence that everything has feathers now.

When your friend, who is also your former podcast co-host and an all around awesome dude, remembers that story you told about being on a low budget TV game show but never getting a copy of the home game so he finds a copy for you on eBay! 😎#reeltoreel #paxtv #moviefan #dwaba #nerdspresso

Thanks to Jimmy W. for submitting his Nerdspresso reader review of Widow's Bay to Southpoint Access. He says: "Do you wanna watch Jaws, Friday the 13th, Midnight Mass, Evil Dead, King of the Hill, and like nine Stephen King movies but you only have time for one thing? Widow's Bay." #tv #appletv #widowsbay

Six powerful ideas on their way to the TEDxOrlando stage.

From public memory and cultural identity to resilience, leadership, and belonging, this year’s speaker lineup is already shaping up to be something special.

What we love most is the variety. Different lived experiences. Different disciplines. Different ways of seeing the world. That’s what makes a TEDx stage exciting.

And we’re just getting started.

Meet the six speakers announced so far, and get your ticket to join us for TEDxOrlando.

This week on @peoplearefish I have assembled the sci-com avengers alongside YOU the audience to ask @doritodon everything we could possibly ask about Spinosaurus Miribilus.

Link to full video in bio.

Two weeks ago we posted a video to announce the unveiling of Spinosaurus mirabilis, a new species of Dinosaur found in Niger, Central Africa by Paul Sereno et. al. 2026. This week, paleontologist Daniel Vidal is back to answer YOUR most burning questions alongside questions from dinosaur and paleontology science communicators YourDinosaursAreWrong, PaleoAnalysis, DinoGuy, DailyDinoGuy, DinoFax, EDGE Science, Jimmy from Dinosaurs will Always Be Awesome, BKbonesdinos, Ashley Hall, Natures Compendium, Skye Walker from Elevation Science, Raptor Chatter, paleoartist Tyler Stone and Dr Emily Keeble. This is #DanVidalUnleashed! And everyone is invited.

Also this video is a chance to highlight the explosion of paleoart that has happened in response to this paper. Nearly 100 artists kindly allowed me to feature their artwork in this video. Thank you to everyone for submitting your work. Their pages are below (arranged in alphabetical order) please check them out and follow them if you like what they do.

Thank you @ninamakesart for the incredible thumbnail art! 🔥
