A rare dinosaur skeleton will be going to auction in London. Nicknamed Spike, inspired by its pointy skull, it has been described as a "colourful bird-like beast." In this edition of The Conversation Hour we discuss the ethics of investing in dinosaur fossils and whether they should just stay in the domain of museums and the scientific community. Also in this edition, Fanny Lumsden talks auditioning local acts for her new tour, how the social media ban for under 16s will impact boarding school students. Plus, have we seen any progress in preventing youth homelessness?
