Encore - How Flint Dibble Prepared for the Joe Rogan Experience - Ep 262

The Archaeology Podcast Network is taking a break for the holiday season. In the meantime, please enjoy this encore episode. It’s a favorite of ours! Happy holidays!

A few weeks ago, archaeologist Flint Dibble was invited on to the Joe Rogan Experience to have a dialogue with Graham Hancock. Over the course of the 4 hour show, Flint did a fantastic job engaging and attempting to educate Graham and Joe. This week, APN co-founder Tristan Boyle had an opportunity to interview Flint about how he prepared for the show, and what the reaction has been on the interwebs.

Encore: Ancient Apocalypse or Modern Lies? - TAS 195

The Archaeology Podcast Network is taking a break for the holiday season. In the meantime, please enjoy this encore episode. It’s a favorite of ours! Happy holidays!

CORRECTION: Graham Hancock wrote Fingerprints of the Gods NOT Chariots of the Gods which was written by Erich von Däniken. Our apologies for mixing up the two titles! The latest archaeological injustice from Graham Hancock is in the form of a brand new, and popular, Netflix series called Ancient Apocalypse. We talk about the eight-episode series, what we liked and what we didn't. Is Graham Hancock right? Is there evidence of an ancient civilization that lived during the last ice age that some how didn't make it through the ice age but did have time to reboot civilization in the people that were left? We'll see.

Encore - Homo Naledi and the Cave of Bones Controversy - Ep 246

This week we tackle one of our favorite topics - controversy! Last summer, the team working on the Rising Star Cave site in South Africa released a series of pre-prints making some incredible claims about the pre-human species, Homo Naledi. They were closely followed by the Netflix documentary, Cave of Bones which captured the attention of the public. However, other researchers are pushing back, claiming lack of solid evidence and published peer reviewed research. Join us while we look at both sides of the debate, and let us know where you land!
