Description

What if everything we know about the origins of civilization is wrong? In this episode, we explore the controversial hypothesis that an advanced prehistoric society thrived during the Ice Age—only to be obliterated in a global cataclysm known as the Younger Dryas event. Authors like Graham Hancock argue that ancient megaliths like Göbekli Tepe and the pyramids of Giza, along with universal flood myths and inexplicable astronomical knowledge, point to a forgotten chapter in human history. Could psychedelics have played a role in transmitting lost wisdom? And why does mainstream archaeology resist these ideas? We dive into the evidence, the myths, and the mysteries of a civilization that may have reset human progress 12,800 years ago.
