Earth Ancients chronicles the growing (and often suppressed) evidence of known and unknown civilizations, their ruined cities, and artifacts developed from advanced science and technology. Erased from the pages of time, these cultures discovered and charted the heavens, developed earth-centric sciences and unleashed advancements that parallel and, in many cases, surpass our own.

  • Topics interesting, wordy

    Cool but sometimes I’m just waiting for you to get to the point. Also the 40 minutes of ads at the end are just annoying as hell

  • Please vet your guests!!

    I’m sorry Cliff, I’m willing to suspend a lot of my suspicions with your guests but this last charlatan Lee La Captain with his Templar Axe was embarrassing.

    He literally said,

    “I have proof but it’s on my other computer”

    “A famous person, you know but I’m not gonna name them will back me up”

    A dude got shot 3x and was a Templar

    I’m all for a good story but if this was supposed pass off as semi fact based, no wonder we’re participating in the decline of this Republic

  • Used to be excellent. Now, not so sure

    This podcast used to be the highlight of my week. Learning new things about the ancient world always interested me. But now it seems Cliff has become a sales man for AI and I have been completely turned off. It just feels like the show has lost its identity and I find that a real shame. Maybe one day I’ll be back.

  • Utter Slop

    Never mind the actual content (shudder the thought). This is one of those examples of the dummest people putting on airs; forget those highly trained and experts! They’re all elitist scum anyway. No, listen to Cliff Dunny (pun intended), he’ll teach ya right (snort). And then the solid last hour of this episode is endless advertising slop and insipid CG music. I awoke from a nice dream because even my subconscious couldn’t stand to hear this fool. Skip this one, skip all of them, DO NOT BOTHER.
