Trex Tuesdays is a fun filled pair of Tyrannosaurus Rexes that create hilarious videos every Tuesday. I ran into them a couple of weeks ago, and was completely delighted by their ice skating video (which you can see here). A dinosaur on ice skates! And s/he was REALLY good!
It turns out that the TRexes live in Minnesota, and they really love to spread joy and cheer to people. With over 400,000 Facebook fans, they are making quite a splash! Honestly, what could be more joy-filled than TRexes making awesome videos to share on Facebook? Join me as I interview TRex Tuesdays on having fun and making people laugh.
I knew I had to get them on the show, so I emailed them, and sure enough, the TRexes were “game.” After a series of emails filled pre-historic humor, and lots of high fives over awesome Tuesday goodness (we both go live on Tuesdays), we figured out a way to make it happen. Their request was that I find a voice for the TRexes; as they prefer to remain anonymous. I did and we recorded it, and the rest is a “page right out of history.”
As part of the amazing Tuesday fun, TRex Tuesdays as sent over this awesome video to share … where they lovingly show how they eat popcorn (ya know, with those little bitty arms). I love them all the more for sharing the joy. I hope you love it as much as I do!
TRex and I talk about:
– where they learned to ice skate
– what dinosaur was the the tastiest
– what dinosaur was their best friend, back in the day
– how their New Year’s resolution is going
– insight on last week’s Valentine’s post, featuring Brent Eldridge’s video “Drunk on Your Love”
– what they are planning this spring! (calling all dinosaurs!)
– what they think of wearing underpants

Oh my goodness! Love this!! Thanks for the joy and laughter.
My pleasure 🙂 It’s always fun to talk to a T-Rex!!
Well that is different. I am not sure I quite “get it” but sounds like you managed to get a fun interview out of it.
I love T-Rex Tuesdays!! Every time one of their video’s pops up on my Facebook page I can’t pass it up! Great interview!
I have never heard of T-Rex Tuesdays but I like the sound of it! I am off to check more of their videos toole pip!
That is so cute and so much fun! Thanks for the mid-morning silliness! I need more of this in my day!
Haha! I’ve seen that costume or whatever it is a couple of times (like a guy doing gymnastics) and absolutely love it. Great interview!
I love these guys! My husband and good friend keep trying to hunt down their own trex outfits (Lord help me). So glad you were able to have them on your show!!
Aren’t those videos the funniest? My toddler even loves them!
This is great. Laughter is definitely the best medicine!
I totally agree and I couldn’t help but bust up during the interview 🙂
I think that’s hilarious! I believe that some people have found the outfits on Ebay … (the things you find out when doing a bit of research for podcast interviews). The upside is that when they’re in the suits, other people probably won’t recognize them 😉 Thank you for stopping by!
LOL! Yes, I think it’s an inflatable T-Rex suit.
The benefits of laughter are so many! So, it’s good for you and it simply feels good. Right? Prescribed daily 🙂
This is the first time I heard about T-Rex Tuesdays. Thanks for sharing the fun video.
That is awesome! I have never heard of this, but I think that my kids would love them! Laughter is good for everyone 🙂
I can’t wait for Tuesday to come so I can see a new Trex I Love them thank you so much for sharing Trex with me
These videos are so much fun. My kids love them. There is something so light hearted and wonderful about them!
My favorite would be the valentine Trex I just love Trex Tuesdays it’s really hard to pick a favorite
How fun! I saw their ice skating video on facebook about a week or so ago. I’m sad to say a dinosaur can ice skate better than me! #lifefail 😉
I have never heard of this before, but I like the sound of it. I will check out the videos now.
This is such a fun concept for a video. I bet it really appeals to the male population as well!
LOL! What an awesome idea for a video/podcast. I love it 🙂
Can’t wait for Tuesday to come seen TREX on the Dr’s I thought Trex was a teacher or a woman was surprised to see a Trex man But that’s ok you are a hunk Trex was really working out Awsome have a awsome day Trex .
Great episode, Paula! It’s pretty inspiring to hear the TRex crew are doing what they do simply to make people laugh. We could all use a little more joy in our lives, right?
P.S. Thanks for featuring Music for Makers 😉
