But anecdotally, some of the things I've been reading are saying that fossils are becoming more of a thing.

Once you get to a certain level of wealth, I guess you get into art or you get into antiquities.

Or nowadays, maybe you get into dinosaur bones.

I should just say this podcast is not just of interest to people that have millions of dollars to spend on dinosaur fossils.

It is also an interesting market structure question and sourcing scenario, I guess, because as you say, there are commercial dinosaur hunters out there, but there are also a lot of regulations around what you can and cannot sell.

There are also a lot of ethical questions that come up.

Should these be in museums or should they be gold plated in a Miami lobby somewhere?

What?

Oh, my God.

I was actually really excited for a second.

I need to get excited about that.

Yeah.

We should request it.

Okay.

All right.

Without further ado, I am pleased to say we do, in fact, have the perfect guest.

We're going to be speaking with Salomon Aaron.

He is a director at David Aaron, which is a London-based antiquities Islamic art and dinosaur fossil gallery.

So someone who actually buys and sells fossils for a living.

Sal, thank you so much for coming on Oddpots.
