On this episode of Expanded Perspectives, the guys start the show off talking about how Thanksgiving went for both of them and how they celebrated Luke's recent birthday at Cidercade! Then, a pregnant woman in annoyed by the constant knocking at her door. When she opens the door, a black-eyed woman in her 50's demands to be let in and to use the phone! Next, a group of friends are sitting in a car and talking when they notice an odd-looking deer with one antler and weird forward-set eyes. Was this a "Not Deer"?

After the break, Cam and Kyle get into the very interesting tale of a large giant found in Romania in 1976 that was a towering 32.8 feet tall. About 5,500 years ago, an underground gallery was constructed in the region by the Agathyrsi. In February 2012, a group of geologists followed the gold vein in the same place. They kept digging until they ended up at the base of the gallery. To their utter surprise, they found a gravestone that was not made of common rock. The geologists took a sample, and the laboratory results revealed that the components of the tombstone included 55% 50-karat gold dust, 15% granite dust, and 30% wolfram. Also, the analysis revealed that the composite rock had been made using a type of technology unknown today.

All of this and more on this installment of Expanded Perspectives!
