Lexie i'm sorry bestie but Graham Hancock is a clown even by his own logic. he has no evidence sadly and his ideas tend to trace to very problematically ahistorical warpings of the past like nordicism... have an archeologist on next time, might balance out the pseudoscience you should've asked him to cite actual evidence to a degree beyond "looks like"
Graham isn't the best source on human history considering he genuinely thinks neanderthals and other ancient humans were atlanteans who mastered psychology to the point of telekinesis on the megalith-moving scale.
I picked Graham and his wife up in London after their dinner with Joe Rogan, drove them to their station. Such a wild moment because I love his books. They were such sweet people, Graham couldn't believe I recognised him, and they waved me goodbye at the station. Wonderful people. // it's kinda sad to see how cynical people are, but I get it. I have shared this story on some other videos, yeah. I just want to share a ridiculously low chance encounter. In London, it's not uncommon to pick up celebrities. But this time was different because he's a guy very few drivers might recognise, unless they've watched him on podcasts etc. His podcasts on Joe Rogan were the first I'd listened to, and I found his ideas fascinating. This was just before his Netflix show came out, he told me it was due to come out in a month or two, I can't recall. I just wanted to share how nice he was to me, despite what I agree or disagree with him about. You can like someone and not agree with some ideas, you know. And you can dislike someone and still agree with their ideas.
What is so incredible about Lex’s style of interview, is that despite Graham’s extensive research, knowledge and clear linguistic prowess, he holds an understandable bitterness due to the personal attacks on his enquiries which now and then comes through in his voice, and yet in those moments Lex instead asks a question with a childlike wonder and curiosity “what would be your dream find to help support your theory” (something I’ve not heard graham be asked before) and reframes the context of the conversation into a supportive collaboration of ideas; rather than a combative competition. This ability to play with ideas lightly and respect the interviewee to bring out their best side moves me emotionally, and inspires me intellectually. Thank you Lex and Graham for this great conversation.
Lex is nice. but also dog whistles to skeptics. Seems like he has some scientific thinking left in his brain and sees asking open ended questions as a life wasted.

He is smart enough to understand that Hancock is a grifter feeding off the credulity of people whoo are more interested in whether something is cool than that it is verifiably correct. Fridman recognises that there's money in it so has sold out his credibility. If there was an ancient globespanning civilisation there would be copious evidence, a vast biotic interchange preceding the one we've perpetrated in the last few centuries would be the most distinct one - and this does not exist. Nobody who is scientifically literate, thoughtful and sceptical even begins to entertain this arrant nonsense.
I would say that he and Alex O'Connor both do an excellent job of asking pointed questions during their interviews while remaining objective, open to new ideas and respectful.

I am 77 and remember much about the Kontiki balsa wood boat that had sailed from Peru to Polynesia in 1947 and also in 1970 the Ra II sailed from Morocco to the Barbados, both sea journeys in ancient style boats proving the possibility of cross ocean journeys in ancient times. I was a Primary school teacher and couldn’t help but see the links between ancient myths across the world.
My great x many grandmother, was a "savage" out of the forest in Canada, having married the first Catholic, with permission granted from the Pope. I wonder if the Polynesian DNA in my profile came from her.
@@SacredOwlyou need to get educated at best, stop the propaganda at worst. Hunting people and eating them for sport, spiritual gain, dominance, is indeed “savage”. Full blooded polynesians, not people like you, realize this. It was an extremely brutal way of life, that frankly, i dont think you can cope with.
That makes more sense, then people of different parts of the Earth, simultaneously thinking and building the same thing without contact. Same thing with the Bow and Arrow. How is it in Africa, and the Naitive American? Cannot be 3 coincidences.
@@colinflynn1090 Flint Dibble is so stressed about Graham's ideas hes gettin cancer. Like for real he should focus on something else its not healthy for him >.
riddle me this ObjectiveEthics (lol), HOW is it ethical for Hankook to steal the work of archaeologists and historians, repurpose it for his own profit, make up a bunch of hooey he can't prove, sell it to you - who can't do research, and then put down the archaeologists and historians who provided the work he's using for his made up theory....? How is that ETHICAL?
The huge popularity of pods like this and so many others prove we not only long for our lost oral traditions but can also benefit from our unexplained need for it.
I always tell folks that the power of the Storyteller cannot be underestimated, and if you don't tell your Story, the story of your people, others will do it for you.... and to your detriment.
Man, this long format it really does explore the person being interviewed so deeper. All these other aspects about them start to come through over time. Excellent work Lex!
I am a student at Portland State University in Oregon. I had to take several geology classes to meet my requirements for my Bachelors of Science, within the last year. My geology professor went over a lot of this same exact stuff about the flooding that created Washington's scablands and the rich Willamette Valley. Graham Hancock is making waves bigger than he knows.
Ah yes, the best way to learn... simply have someone uninterrupted or challenged on their incorrect facts to talk freely without any resistance. Truly a masterclass in education.
Thanks for this wonderful interview of Graham Hancock. I’ve been following his work since I came across a copy of The Sign and the Seal in the early 90s. He’s a brilliant and fascinating man, and I appreciated the opportunity to listen to him talk without having to constantly defend himself.
dude he's full of shit and skipps alot of important information that disproves his crazy theories. I get if you arent knowledgeable in these areas it would be fascinating but unfortunaly its all BS.
@@benjohnsen4548 Exactly, and if someone actually sits down and talks with him and makes his claims sounds ridiculous based on things that are known, Hancock is gonna sue the shit out of them... yeah, real "legend"
I never heard of him but now I am going on a Grahamathon. He's very thought provoking in an age that we are only TOLD what to think; he allows us to think and wonder for ourselves. I am also impressed with this Lex, a fantastic interviewer. Also I like the long format, which I thought was also a thing of the past.
@@rockshot100 Dude, please dont. This guy is lying to you. Maybe watch all the people in the industry that debunk him. Trust an acheologist not a sociologist on archeology.
It's here to see him interviewed on his own like this. I saw him on a JRE with Carson Randall and he kept trying to take over the conversation any chance he could. It was a little off-putting
Hangcock can give 150 hours of interview no problem,, amazing stuff, he can repeat the mistery of human sivilisations ,,the start of sivilisation happened in turkey?
I’m absolutely loving the latest series of podcasts you’ve put out. Ancient history, cultures, political systems… it’s absolutely gripping, entertaining and informative. Thanks for all your hard work - I love listening to your stuff and really appreciate that you exist in this world. Peace! ✌🏻
i have always followed Graham since Fingerprints of the Gods. His views about oral tradition and mankind's lost history have always resonated with me, on a personal level. I'm from Mozambique, Africa and where i was born we have a local flood myth. It exists until today (but is fading as more people grow out of oral traditions) but i was fortunate enough to hear it from my great grandmother. His book opened my eyes to the fact that this stuff exists all over the world, not just the big examples normally mentioned when these conversations happen. This is my personal best episode ever.
you do know during the younger dryas period the water only rose at approx 1 inch a year, this guy is full of shit and making coin off peeps with little knowledge.
@@benjohnsen4548 so many clueless people out here in the ether....they love his sneaky, ego-filled, presentation. personally, I see lies oozing out of his face...lol...and then he slams archaeologists and historians, the very people whose work he steals to repurpose to try and support his own made-up BS...it is so amazingly disingenuous...sickening to those of us who see right through him. it's like watching a MAGA rally....
Graham does a much better job here couching his views as hypotheses that would demand further evidence or reevaluation of existing evidence. Much more refined than I have seen him in other interviews.
Agreed. Which is the right way to go as the case that *something is missing* is much easier to go with than any particular thesis about what. i dont really understand how his opponents reconcile the fact they are jumping up and down trying to prove a negative with any claim to be open minded. have to say, though... although Graham has come across as a bit driven and harried in the past, I dont blame him. He has been under immense pressure for decades just for free spirited inquiry. It's bound to make you need to dig in a bit.
Yeah he was too emotionally involved in the JRE debate. He focussed so much on clearing his name from racial and white supremacist jibs from the archaeological community that he lost his way. Have you seen his recent post on RUclips about acknowledging this point. Well worth a watch. I'd like a 2.0 with that Dibbler weirdo.
this dude was the one that made me watch podcasts I still remember his first amazing appearance onJoe Rogan's podcast. Glad you brought him here, Lex. It doesn't really matter to me if his theory is true or false, it's still super entertaining and worth investigating
Grahm seemed to have this perceptive awareness that let the original question get unintentionally subverted by Lex, postulate on the subversion, and then return to the original intent before closing the loop. I appreciate this, as I see so many times the original question go largely unanswered by embellishment of a tangent. What an interesting man, and the right man to interview him.
Astoundingly, you possess an exceptional and unparalleled ability to transform a fundamentally straightforward and uncomplicated declaration into something extravagantly verbose and needlessly convoluted.
Lex is the most underrated interviewer of our time. He brings up topics in a genuine way and then allows his guest to express and explain their points, yet he’s always got some insight or counter when they finish. He gets better with each episode.
Amazing podcast. The last hour really hit a wonderful and enjoyable free flow. I love this guest. Everything you do is great Lex. The world is a better place with you in it.
I could listen to Graham talk for hours and do whenever given the opportunity. The final 5 mins were exceptionally interesting. He has a certain intuition that I find quite refreshing and is of course an extremely bright person. Thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Only wish he would of spoken more in depth on the subject of mortality and his opinion on the role the great pyramids played in how the ancient Egyptians worked to unlock the secrets of what happens after death.
This interview has been a joy to watch. Possibly the best overview of Graham Hancocks theories and hypotheses. I am going to watch this again. Thank you Lex. I hadn’t heard of you before. You have a new subscriber. 🙏
Somebody got to him. He explicitly stated that Gobekli Tepe had no agriculture when it began. Wtf. Even on the surface?, how does he KNOW. The historical record of the Sumerians (this is just one!) has human beings farming successfully along with orchards, animal husbandry you name it. Not to mention technologies. He's being forced to push a narrative. We are far older and sophisticated. My god.
Fr. Joe Rogan can sometimes have great topics with great minds but it pisses me off when he just keeps interrupting great scholars such as Brian Cox just to keep interjecting and doesn’t know when to shut the f up & let the guy across the table talk
I simply loved listening to Graham, even if much of it may never be fully proven. He explores fascinating questions-ones that anyone with an open mind has likely pondered at some point. A big thanks to Lex. I love his humble and open nature. He led this conversation, in a way that made it truly enjoyable for the listener.
its one thing to bring well thought hypothesis supported by evidence. there are many questions concerning ancient history but throwing out there unprovable crap does not make a scientst, it makes a bulls*t artist.
He'd probably have a lot fewer critics if he approached it that way, rather than pretending its persecution when he gets off base. Even if we Steelman some of his arguments, some of them are flat out wrong - but he never adjusts.
Lex! The most important discussion you have with Graham is the evolution of Shamanism. His treatise “Visionary/Supernatural” is a BRILLIANT “ understanding of our shamanic past and the start of human consciousness. Thank you for asking about this.
The fact that someone had mapped the Americas so precisely by 1270 (more than 200 years before Columbus' accredited discovery and more than 230 years before Magellan's accredited navigation of South America) is WILD
The chapter on this topic in Fingerprint of the Gods was one of my favorite. It also talks about the mapping of the coast of Alaska before it had actually frozen. Absolute wild stuff! 😅
One of the theories on this is like graham said, with the fall of constantiople. that's when europe has it's rennesance and suddenly start sailing further. All those people who fled to western europe from the turks.
Always love listening to Graham talk about anything, an amazing mind who has seen and explored so much of the world much of us will never have to opportunity to see! It’s amazing we get this sort of information for free, thank you for not being afraid to question the status quo and exploring other possibilities. There is so much of this world we still know so little about!
I agree with everything you said, just not about the fact that RUclips is free. There's a bigger picture as to the actual price of things Not to nitpick or pick on you or anything, but it's something I read often. Nothing about google is actually free. Wikipedia is free. Wayback machine is free
Увлекательный и прекрасно проиллюстрированный разговор.Загадки истории привлекательны для изучения именно тем,что дают возможность потренировать "глаз",посмотрев на события давно минувших дней шире и объёмнее без оглядки на общепринятый и удобный угол обзора. Спасибо Вам
Ah. Bravo. Cast that doubt! It helps your own doubts feel real. Debunkers are both creative and effective so don't take this as insincere. I really am impressed.
The Australian Aboriginal oral traditional stories are literally the exact story telling phenomena used in the ‘mega memory’ system, the Aboriginal elders remember and teach a massive amount of information with every important detail in order
Yes that's why they are far more advanced than any population today.Makes you wonder why we use things like historical records and data when we could just rely on 100% perfectly accurate memory😂
oral traditions are of course important, and that's how eventually the bible was written; but when i hear many indigenous story tellers from north america (coastal) i find they are incorporating ideas put forth by europeans (like the idea of having lived living for 10,000 years). also, if you take the finely carved totem poles which are closely tied to the Haida, they are only a couple hundred years old (the oldest ones have rotted) when they had access to better carving tools. beforehand, the poles were little more than posts for their long houses. probably for this reason that graham only mentions civilizations in south and central america.
I've been waiting for Graham or Randall to mention the huge tidal sand ripples in the middle of Australia like the scablands they talk about. The Dreamtime stories are based
Graham claimed that mainstream archeology tries to suppress his views but he is way more popular than them. He has more videos on RUclips and even a Netflix documentary 😂😂.
@@politicallyincorrect2564 "Graham claimed that mainstream archeology tries to suppress his views" aka a martyr complex - professionally playing the victim card so that sympathetic fools will fill his bank account.
They disagree about some major things but we love them both because they’re honest respectful men. Flint could be seen the same way if he wasn’t such a little prick.
Thank you Pinball! I still ride almost daily and pull a trailer, but this would be a great addition here in N. Indiana. This would be eXtremely helpful. Especially going over CX trails.
That was delightful guys. It just felt like a very caring and enjoyable conversation between two friends who like sharing each other's company, whilst enjoying the discussion of exploring the beauty and mystery of consciousness! It was a very appropriate vibe! 😄
This Hancock guy does bring up a lot of interesting question that might never been answered but we should always be asking uncomfortable questions and not ridiculing those who ask them
If you watch Ancient Apocalypse it does bring out too many complex megalithic structures that disproves archaelogical dogma that humans were simple hunter gatherers 9000 years ago
Asking just for the point of asking is reductive - like the adult equivalent of a child in the back seat of the car asking "are we there yet?" every 30 seconds while their parents try to remember why they wanted to become parents. At a certain point when you are just pointing at the people actually doing the work and telling them that they are doing it wrong then you are in fact the problem in the room. Hancock despite being VERY rich at this point has never once funded any archaeological expeditions. If he were as serious as he pretends to be to get you to open your wallets and buy his media then he would have opened his own wallet to fund expeditions years ago. Also, it's Hancock who started ridiculing archaeologists first - he's like the American GOP mandating the removal of sex ed in schools and then campaigning on reducing abortions when the inevitable result of the lack of sex ed leads to unwanted pregnancies.
Wow! What a remarkable conversation between two brilliant minds! I loved every moment of it... :) Conversations like this one make those of us who studied history wish we had pursued archaeology instead. As an Assyrian whose ancestors likely gazed at the stars, I truly appreciate discussions like this. I remember a trip to Australia where my friends bought a telescope, and we spent so many nights stargazing. Life on Earth is truly such a fascinating journey. I've always believed that no matter how much we learn, it’s just a drop in the ocean... Mr. Zecharia Sitchin’s theories about the advanced civilization he referred to as the Anunnaki are intriguing as well and I remembered him when you mentioned the advanced alien theory or what some call the ancient astronaut theory. I kept thinking as I was listening to you both speak so eloquently that the last Unicorns still exist... While I believe humanity is fundamentally one, not everyone shares the same level of consciousness. This is absolutely true and there must be a reason why there is such a huge difference in our levels of compassion... The question of who our ancestors were is endlessly captivating... I once argued in philosophy class that the concept of "human" is actually vague, but few agreed. Thankfully, people are starting to engage more with these ideas now. :) Thank you both again for such an enlightening discussion. I wish if I could ask you both a gazillion questions! Sincerely- Yona (Abbey Mikha)
Really enjoyed this podcast. A fan of Graham. He challenges one to think holistically. Great to join him on his adventure of seeking to discover the real story of ancient peoples and civilizations.
Really enjoyed listening, lex gives his guests time to talk and doesn’t let his need to be seen to know everything be seen. knowledge favours the patient well done guys on a great interview
@@TheAngryHippie I don't care enough about graham hancock to hate. I'm just letting you know that he's a conartist and you're the one being conned. This comes more out of a place of love. It's a shame to see.
@@sethjohnson6012 You clearly never heard anything about him other than his view on ancient mysteries. He's done more for people than you ever have or will do
That's why I like Graham, he poses interesting questions about the past. He may be right, he may be wrong but he opens the mind to "what if" and that is what drives human curiosity and learning.
@@dmacarthur5356 sometimes the truth seems like an insult but its just truth. If you believe this guys BS he has made you stupider than you previously were. And yes this annoys me that such people can make money off such lies and get away with it. It should be a crime to publish such miss information and lies.
@@benjohnsen4548 " If you believe this guys BS..." What does that have to do with what we just said? We gave him credit for things like being inquisitive about the unknown. None of us said anything about believing what he said or not. Even if you disagree with him, you got to give the devil his due.
I have followed Hancocks work for years now, its great to see more recognition going his way for all he has done in true archaology. If this is your first encounter with his ideas and discoveries, I urge you to dig deeper and educate yourself to our true history...
Graham is a good watch and a great read. His early theories were extreme and most likely why he gets battered by scientists. The evolution of his theories is far more interesting, I mainly like that he gets you invested in human history irrespective of narrative. Don’t be fooled though, like everyone else he’s selling something, books, appearances etc.
That's the thing, usually if you have a theory blown out by the evidence, you adjust. He seems a common rock formation and assumes it must be a road, when shown how they form and all the locations they form in, he just goes "Nope, still a road." He needs more humility.
@@kyjo72682 You do realize Wikipedia locked Graham out his own content and force feed the narratives, If your really think Wikipedia is a good source of information your highly delusional
@@kyjo72682wikipedia isn’t a reliable source for this sort of thing. The editing process is walled off to the public and one of Hancock’s critics, John Hoopes, who has erroneously claimed, without evidence, that Hancock promulgates racist ideas, is one of the key editors of his page.

I am 77 and remember much about the Kontiki balsa wood boat that had sailed from Peru to Polynesia in 1947 and also in 1970 the Ra II sailed from Morocco to the Barbados, both sea journeys in ancient style boats proving the possibility of cross ocean journeys in ancient times. I was a Primary school teacher and couldn’t help but see the links between ancient myths across the world.
My great x many grandmother, was a "savage" out of the forest in Canada, having married the first Catholic, with permission granted from the Pope. I wonder if the Polynesian DNA in my profile came from her.
@@SacredOwlyou need to get educated at best, stop the propaganda at worst. Hunting people and eating them for sport, spiritual gain, dominance, is indeed “savage”. Full blooded polynesians, not people like you, realize this. It was an extremely brutal way of life, that frankly, i dont think you can cope with.

This interview was an absolute pleasure to watch. Thank you Lex for bringing a humble and inquisitive approach to your interview style.
riddle me this ObjectiveEthics (lol), HOW is it ethical for Hankook to steal the work of archaeologists and historians, repurpose it for his own profit, make up a bunch of hooey he can't prove, sell it to you - who can't do research, and then put down the archaeologists and historians who provided the work he's using for his made up theory....? How is that ETHICAL?
It's so nice just to hear Graham talk without constant interruptions
That's how you interview someone isn't it? Great Job for lex.

Graham Hancock is making waves bigger than he knows.

Thanks for this wonderful interview of Graham Hancock. I’ve been following his work since I came across a copy of The Sign and the Seal in the early 90s. He’s a brilliant and fascinating man, and I appreciated the opportunity to listen to him talk without having to constantly defend himself.
Anyone else doing the Grahamathon?, i can never get enough of him. Been a fan for years now, what a legend.
dude he's full of shit and skipps alot of important information that disproves his crazy theories. I get if you arent knowledgeable in these areas it would be fascinating but unfortunaly its all BS.
in the real world of science it is spelled Leg End.
I thank you.

@@benjohnsen4548 Exactly, and if someone actually sits down and talks with him and makes his claims sounds ridiculous based on things that are known, Hancock is gonna sue the shit out of them... yeah, real "legend"
I never heard of him but now I am going on a Grahamathon. He's very thought provoking in an age that we are only TOLD what to think; he allows us to think and wonder for ourselves. I am also impressed with this Lex, a fantastic interviewer. Also I like the long format, which I thought was also a thing of the past.
@@rockshot100 Dude, please dont. This guy is lying to you. Maybe watch all the people in the industry that debunk him. Trust an acheologist not a sociologist on archeology.

It's incredible how much this man can talk. Lex has said less in this interview than in any other interview I've seen of his lol.
It's here to see him interviewed on his own like this. I saw him on a JRE with Carson Randall and he kept trying to take over the conversation any chance he could. It was a little off-putting
people who talk a lot are often wrong a lot

i have always followed Graham since Fingerprints of the Gods. His views about oral tradition and mankind's lost history have always resonated with me, on a personal level. I'm from Mozambique, Africa and where i was born we have a local flood myth. It exists until today (but is fading as more people grow out of oral traditions) but i was fortunate enough to hear it from my great grandmother. His book opened my eyes to the fact that this stuff exists all over the world, not just the big examples normally mentioned when these conversations happen. This is my personal best episode ever.
you do know during the younger dryas period the water only rose at approx 1 inch a year, this guy is full of shit and making coin off peeps with little knowledge.
@benjohnsen4548 well, he is more researched than your "he is full of shit". Between the two, excuse me if ill consider his opinion
@@benjohnsen4548 so many clueless people out here in the ether....they love his sneaky, ego-filled, presentation. personally, I see lies oozing out of his face...lol...and then he slams archaeologists and historians, the very people whose work he steals to repurpose to try and support his own made-up BS...it is so amazingly disingenuous...sickening to those of us who see right through him. it's like watching a MAGA rally....
Graham does a much better job here couching his views as hypotheses that would demand further evidence or reevaluation of existing evidence. Much more refined than I have seen him in other interviews.
Yeah, I think it's telling that Lex didn't call him a historian in his intro. Graham Hancock is the perfect embodiment of JAQing off.
Backtracking.
Agreed. Which is the right way to go as the case that *something is missing* is much easier to go with than any particular thesis about what. i dont really understand how his opponents reconcile the fact they are jumping up and down trying to prove a negative with any claim to be open minded. have to say, though... although Graham has come across as a bit driven and harried in the past, I dont blame him. He has been under immense pressure for decades just for free spirited inquiry. It's bound to make you need to dig in a bit.
Yeah he was too emotionally involved in the JRE debate. He focussed so much on clearing his name from racial and white supremacist jibs from the archaeological community that he lost his way. Have you seen his recent post on RUclips about acknowledging this point. Well worth a watch. I'd like a 2.0 with that Dibbler weirdo.
Thought the same thing!
Pissed me off
this dude was the one that made me watch podcasts I still remember his first amazing appearance onJoe Rogan's podcast. Glad you brought him here, Lex.
It doesn't really matter to me if his theory is true or false, it's still super entertaining and worth investigating

Lex I've never seen you so quick to ask all the correct and best questions so concisely- yet another thoroughly enjoyable episode !
Grahm seemed to have this perceptive awareness that let the original question get unintentionally subverted by Lex, postulate on the subversion, and then return to the original intent before closing the loop. I appreciate this, as I see so many times the original question go largely unanswered by embellishment of a tangent. What an interesting man, and the right man to interview him.

I could listen to Hancock all day! I hope to see more from him on this pod Lex.
Lex is the most underrated interviewer of our time. He brings up topics in a genuine way and then allows his guest to express and explain their points, yet he’s always got some insight or counter when they finish. He gets better with each episode.
This was so interesting. I normally can’t watch anything longer than a few minutes but I watched this all the way to the end, twice!
its some good fiction, but thats all it is unfortunately. Making up false information like this should be a crime.
Amazing podcast. The last hour really hit a wonderful and enjoyable free flow. I love this guest. Everything you do is great Lex. The world is a better place with you in it.

I love the guy but even I don't have the stamina for 3 hours on Sirius. And are you sure the man can stay on one topic lol
American turbulent wader😂
6 hours
That's 45 computer cable changes and 984 slides
I could listen to Graham talk for hours and do whenever given the opportunity. The final 5 mins were exceptionally interesting. He has a certain intuition that I find quite refreshing and is of course an extremely bright person. Thoroughly enjoyed this episode. Only wish he would of spoken more in depth on the subject of mortality and his opinion on the role the great pyramids played in how the ancient Egyptians worked to unlock the secrets of what happens after death.
This interview has been a joy to watch. Possibly the best overview of Graham Hancocks theories and hypotheses. I am going to watch this again. Thank you Lex. I hadn’t heard of you before. You have a new subscriber. 🙏
It's always Christmas with graham. I find him and his stories utterly fascinating.
Somebody got to him. He explicitly stated that Gobekli Tepe had no agriculture when it began. Wtf.
Even on the surface?, how does he KNOW. The historical record of the Sumerians (this is just one!) has human beings farming successfully along with orchards, animal husbandry you name it. Not to mention technologies.
He's being forced to push a narrative.
We are far older and sophisticated. My god.

I simply loved listening to Graham, even if much of it may never be fully proven. He explores fascinating questions-ones that anyone with an open mind has likely pondered at some point.
A big thanks to Lex. I love his humble and open nature. He led this conversation, in a way that made it truly enjoyable for the listener.
its one thing to bring well thought hypothesis supported by evidence. there are many questions concerning ancient history but throwing out there unprovable crap does not make a scientst, it makes a bulls*t artist.
He'd probably have a lot fewer critics if he approached it that way, rather than pretending its persecution when he gets off base. Even if we Steelman some of his arguments, some of them are flat out wrong - but he never adjusts.
Lex! The most important discussion you have with Graham is the evolution of Shamanism. His treatise “Visionary/Supernatural” is a BRILLIANT “ understanding of our shamanic past and the start of human consciousness. Thank you for asking about this.

The fact that someone had mapped the Americas so precisely by 1270 (more than 200 years before Columbus' accredited discovery and more than 230 years before Magellan's accredited navigation of South America) is WILD
The chapter on this topic in Fingerprint of the Gods was one of my favorite. It also talks about the mapping of the coast of Alaska before it had actually frozen. Absolute wild stuff! 😅
One of the theories on this is like graham said, with the fall of constantiople. that's when europe has it's rennesance and suddenly start sailing further. All those people who fled to western europe from the turks.

Love Graham! I will watch ALL his content and interviews. His books are fantastic and his audio books read by him are just fantastic. 🤩
The Australian Aboriginal oral traditional stories are literally the exact story telling phenomena used in the ‘mega memory’ system, the Aboriginal elders remember and teach a massive amount of information with every important detail in order
Fun fact aboriginal people have a larger portion of the brain than other races set aside for visual memory.
Yes that's why they are far more advanced than any population today.Makes you wonder why we use things like historical records and data when we could just rely on 100% perfectly accurate memory😂
oral traditions are of course important, and that's how eventually the bible was written; but when i hear many indigenous story tellers from north america (coastal) i find they are incorporating ideas put forth by europeans (like the idea of having lived living for 10,000 years). also, if you take the finely carved totem poles which are closely tied to the Haida, they are only a couple hundred years old (the oldest ones have rotted) when they had access to better carving tools. beforehand, the poles were little more than posts for their long houses. probably for this reason that graham only mentions civilizations in south and central america.
I've been waiting for Graham or Randall to mention the huge tidal sand ripples in the middle of Australia like the scablands they talk about. The Dreamtime stories are based

Always a pleasur to listen
I could listen to this man talk for hours. He has the best voice.
And the accent icing the cake.
This Hancock guy does bring up a lot of interesting question that might never been answered but we should always be asking uncomfortable questions and not ridiculing those who ask them
His questions have all been answered. He simply misunderstands or chooses not to understand the answers.
If you watch Ancient Apocalypse it does bring out too many complex megalithic structures that disproves archaelogical dogma that humans were simple hunter gatherers 9000 years ago
Asking just for the point of asking is reductive - like the adult equivalent of a child in the back seat of the car asking "are we there yet?" every 30 seconds while their parents try to remember why they wanted to become parents.
At a certain point when you are just pointing at the people actually doing the work and telling them that they are doing it wrong then you are in fact the problem in the room.
Hancock despite being VERY rich at this point has never once funded any archaeological expeditions.
If he were as serious as he pretends to be to get you to open your wallets and buy his media then he would have opened his own wallet to fund expeditions years ago.
Also, it's Hancock who started ridiculing archaeologists first - he's like the American GOP mandating the removal of sex ed in schools and then campaigning on reducing abortions when the inevitable result of the lack of sex ed leads to unwanted pregnancies.
Why did your comment attract the dogmatic salty ones lol

Wow! What a remarkable conversation between two brilliant minds!
I loved every moment of it... :)
Conversations like this one make those of us who studied history wish we had pursued archaeology instead.
As an Assyrian whose ancestors likely gazed at the stars, I truly appreciate discussions like this.
I remember a trip to Australia where my friends bought a telescope, and we spent so many nights stargazing.
Life on Earth is truly such a fascinating journey.
I've always believed that no matter how much we learn, it’s just a drop in the ocean...
Mr. Zecharia Sitchin’s theories about the advanced civilization he referred to as the Anunnaki are intriguing as well and I remembered him when you mentioned the advanced alien theory or what some call the ancient astronaut theory.
I kept thinking as I was listening to you both speak so eloquently that the last Unicorns still exist...
While I believe humanity is fundamentally one, not everyone shares the same level of consciousness. This is absolutely true and there must be a reason why there is such a huge difference in our levels of compassion...
The question of who our ancestors were is endlessly captivating...
I once argued in philosophy class that the concept of "human" is actually vague, but few agreed.
Thankfully, people are starting to engage more with these ideas now. :)
Thank you both again for such an enlightening discussion.
I wish if I could ask you both a gazillion questions!

Graham you are one of my favorite explorers keep up the investigation as much of our history reflects a status quo.
Graham is a good watch and a great read. His early theories were extreme and most likely why he gets battered by scientists. The evolution of his theories is far more interesting, I mainly like that he gets you invested in human history irrespective of narrative. Don’t be fooled though, like everyone else he’s selling something, books, appearances etc.
That's the thing, usually if you have a theory blown out by the evidence, you adjust. He seems a common rock formation and assumes it must be a road, when shown how they form and all the locations they form in, he just goes "Nope, still a road." He needs more humility.
Just wanted to say love all of you ❤
