    Growing Up

    Time range: 500 BCE - 1750 CE  Ok, so last time we checked in on humanity, they were building civilizations. There were three significant civilizations we focused on; the Indus River Valley Civilization, Mesopotamia. Of course, there were others, but um, I uh didn't feel like talking about the others. If that is not enough for you, you can start your podcast and talk about China, Meso America, and whatever else you want. Anyway, more civilizations have popped up. Here are some societies you should know: Rome, Persia, the Mauryan Empire in India, the Han Dynasty in China, Ghana, and Europe and stuff. Why do you need to know all that?

While this was a successful method of living, there was a growing demand for change. But why? The hunter-gather diet was far healthier than the diet after this change. And hunter-gathers had much more leisure time than their advanced descends. So why would they make this change?

    The Rise of Man

    Time Range: 13.8 billion years ago - 15,000 years ago. The Big Bang occurs, atoms are made. Then stars and planets. Next, come the earth and sun. After this, the ocean arrives followed by life. Life is simple, then it changes rapidly. Then it crawled on the land. After a couple of extinctions and ice ages, monkeys came down from the trees. This forced them to change their ways so they stood up. They later develop larger brains and new technologies like fire, tools, and language. All of that in 13,785,000 billion years.
