Earth AncientsSep 12, 2026
Author and independent researcher Jason Andrew Wilde argues that ancient myths, especially Sumerian accounts of the sky-descending Anunnaki and the fish-like Apkallu sages, are distorted memories of real history after the Younger Dryas flood. He favors a 'survivor hypothesis' in which seafaring remnants of an advanced pre-flood culture emerged from the Persian Gulf and rebooted civilization, though he does not rule out ancient beings living beneath the sea. Wilde also recounts a childhood UFO encounter with missing time, a levitating guru in India, and his belief that UAPs are interdimensional beings.
Episode #382: Searching for Traces of a Lost Civilization with Ben from UnchartedX
Brothers of the SerpentAug 18, 2026
Ben from UnchartedX joins Russ and Kyle Allen to argue that ancient Egypt shows evidence of two separate industries: a primitive one matching dynastic Egyptian tools, and a far more sophisticated one involving machining, precision, and massive logistics. They propose that the dynastic Egyptians inherited monuments, statues, and precision stone vases from an older lost civilization, possibly one that flourished during the African Humid Period or earlier. The conversation covers erosion on the Giza plateau, the precision vase scanning debate, academic resistance to alternative ideas, and advice for future archaeologists.
