Encore - How Flint Dibble Prepared for the Joe Rogan Experience - Ep 262

The Archaeology Podcast Network is taking a break for the holiday season. In the meantime, please enjoy this encore episode. It's a favorite of ours! Happy holidays! A few weeks ago, archaeologist Flint Dibble was invited on to the Joe Rogan Experience to have a dialogue with Graham Hancock. Over the course of the 4 hour show, Flint did a fantastic job engaging and attempting to educate Graham and Joe. This week, APN co-founder Tristan Boyle had an opportunity to interview Flint about how he prepared for the show, and what the reaction has been on the interwebs.

Encore: Ancient Apocalypse or Modern Lies? - Ep 195

The Archaeology Podcast Network is taking a break for the holiday season. In the meantime, please enjoy this encore episode. It's a favorite of ours! Happy holidays! CORRECTION: Graham Hancock wrote Fingerprints of the Gods NOT Chariots of the Gods which was written by Erich von Däniken. Our apologies for mixing up the two titles! The latest archaeological injustice from Graham Hancock is in the form of a brand new, and popular, Netflix series called Ancient Apocalypse. We talk about the eight-episode series, what we liked and what we didn't. Is Graham Hancock right? Is there evidence of an ancient civilization that lived during the last ice age that some how didn't make it through the ice age but did have time to reboot civilization in the people that were left? We'll see.

Encore - Homo Naledi and the Cave of Bones Controversy - Ep 246

This week we tackle one of our favorite topics - controversy! Last summer, the team working on the Rising Star Cave site in South Africa released a series of pre-prints making some incredible claims about the pre-human species, Homo Naledi. They were closely followed by the Netflix documentary, Cave of Bones which captured the attention of the public. However, other researchers are pushing back, claiming lack of solid evidence and published peer reviewed research. Join us while we look at both sides of the debate, and let us know where you land!

The Archaeology of Moana 2 - Ep 290

Recently, we went to see the movie Moana 2 with our little nieces and we ended up enjoying it so much more than we expected! But, of course, we had to ask the question, how accurate is the story and characters behind the Moana franchise? In this episode we deep dive the history, archaeology, myths, and Polynesian culture on which these movies are based.

Famous Pompeii Casts Are Not Who They Seem - Ep 287

This week we cover 3 recent archaeology news stories that showcase the bias of both journalists and researchers. First, 12,000 year old spindle whirls may be early evidence of the wheel. Then, we head to Pompeii where DNA evidence is showing the modern bias researchers have about personal adornment. And finally, Indigenous populations in Columbia are sharing their cultural knowledge about local Pictographs, and not surprisingly it is different from the assumptions drawn by past researchers.

Love These Nerds!

قبل ٦ أيام

cntrybmpkn

I love these two loveable archeology nerds and all their great news and information! One correction for you guys on Episode 195 that just came out. Graham Hancock’s first popular book was Fingerprints of the Gods, not Chariots of the Gods which was another pseudoscience book from a different author.
Y’all are just great

Lane__Q

I hate reviews, but I really feel the need to say that you two have an excellent podcast and I really do wait for every episode. I am a law student who is a total archaeology/history nerd and you guys are a portion of my periodic fix. The breakdowns are always insightful and accessible. Beyond the subject matter, I love the humor from both of you and your chemistry is really endearing and cozy. You two have a gift in this and I hope you stick with it. Thanks, - Lane
Chichén Itzá episode was a joke

٢٧‏/٠٤‏/١٤٤٦ هـ

thefirstcritic

I listened to the Chichén Itzá episode and expected some information about… archeology. It was almost totally devoid of content of any kind. The hosts had no idea what a cenote was (sink hole or underground river?) and had little information about the site, other than a few dates and a recommendation for a tour company that apparently (in the hosts’ telling) provided a tour that was (in the hosts’ telling) both incorrect and without context. In case anyone is interested, “cenote” comes from the Mayan word D’zonot, meaning holy well. It is the sinkhole, not the river. The Yucatan is mostly made of porous limestone. As a result, the peninsula has little in the way of above-ground rivers. Most of its rivers are underground, and they are revealed when the ground collapses, forming a cenote. The Mayans were not especially good cave divers. So they would have had no way to know that they built a pyramid above one of the below-ground rivers. How the hosts couldn’t figure out this basic fact is a mystery.
Great potential

It would a great option for the hobby archaeologist, but the ‘banter’ between the hosts makes it nearly unbearable to listen to. The guy does a better job of staying on track, but the female cohost’s constant giggles and interjections are annoying. Great potential, poor execution
