The Strange and Suspicious Career of Dr. Andrew Kinkella - Ep 271

This week we continued our APN Host Interview series with Dr. Andrew Kinkella, the fantastic host of The Pseudo-Archaeology Podcast and one of the co-hosts of the CRM Archaeology Podcast. Andrew has done so many cool things throughout his career including excavating in Mayan Cenotes in Belize, working as a Community College Professor in California, and talking head on Discovery Channel style documentaries. After we chat about all that, we look at a recent news article about the supposed red-headed giants of Lovelock Cave in Nevada. Spoiler Alert, they weren’t real!
