  • Bombastic and alienating

    I stumbled across this podcast looking for something to bridge conversation over shared interests in the history of humans with someone who’s been sucked in by Hancock in part because of the colonialist mindset of those who have historically dominated archaeology.

  • Yikes

    As a skeptic myself, he’s embarrassing to listen to.

    Unless you want to hear from someone who thinks they are way smarter than they actually are, I would check out a different show.

  • Skip the self-important bits and you’ll get to the good stuff

    A lot of blah blah blah from the presenters before you get to the archaeology, but generally if you skip the first ten mins of the episode you can jump into the interesting stuff. And it IS interesting
