Radio Lab is an NPR program, usually voice only, here is a video of one of their shows.

Theory goes that the asteroid that hit caused such a rapid rise in tempurature and subsequent acid and "glass" rain, that every dinosaur and plant on the surface, worldwide, died within a matter of hours.

Only smaller dino's, deeper sea creatures and mammals, insects, etc, that were buried in the ground survived

Interesting to listen/watch-when you have the time
