    Some great RV and international travel ideas here, as well as some very careful looks at today’s news about yesterday’s life, via archaeology.

  • Hypocritical

    Good podcast talking about ancient cites all over the world. Thorough and detailed review on all topics. A clear throwing of shade at “Pseudoarchaeology” yet site Flint Dibble as a quality and stand-up archaeologist. Pretty tough look to hate on the conspiracy theorists, yet site the stone tool-loving, number-exaggerating, racist calling, pompous and arrogant Flint as factual.

  • Irritating woman

    Can’t listen to her grating voice and cackling. Just wittering nonsense by people whose knowledge is minimal.

  • Well-intentioned I guess?

    These are not the podcasters you’re looking for. If they stuck to the story instead of trying to be funny or entertaining, I’d keep listening. Lots of misspeak. Miserable, rambling man with a woman who laughs uncomfortably wayyyyy too often attempting to do…what? There is no chemistry and it’s just not working for me.
