This conversation with Peter delves into the rich history and culture of Britain, exploring the interplay between myth and reality, particularly through the lens of Arthurian legends and the influence of Christianity. We also delve into the exploration of ancient civilizations, focusing on archaeological finds, the Neolithic period, and the connections between zodiac symbols and historical narratives. We discuss the significance of cultural exchanges, the influence of geography on ancient societies, and the legacy of figures like Arthur in the context of myth and history. Peter also touches on the idea of secret knowledge being passed down through generations, highlighting the intertwining of history and mythology in understanding our past. We look for connections between the Holy Grail, the Bronze and Iron Ages, and the historical context of King Arthur.

Kyle delivers his latest presentation on Gobekli Tepe and the wider "Tas Tepeler Civilization" topic. How far back do these ancient megaliths really go? The evidence we have cannot actually tell us, because all of the dating is based on the material found around the megaliths. And is there a connection between the people who inhabited these t-pillar sites and the area of Giza in Egypt?

Filipo Biondi and Armando Mei are the Italian scientists heading the project to scan the Giza Plateau with satellite-borne Scanning Aperture Radar(SAR). In this interview we discuss the technical aspects of the technology in an attempt to get a basic grasp of how it works. We also discuss the history of the technology, including the epxperiments and testing it underwent before being used at Giza. We also talking about the Giza findings themselves, what the confidence level is for the depictions of the underground structures, and what they might be.

Dr. Trevor Lohman is an assistant professor and researcher into the neuroscience of aging. He joins us in this episode to give us a crash course on the physical functions of the brain, and how current science still has no good explanation for the phenomena of consciousness. We discuss the history of quantum physics experiments into the "double slit" problem and the collapse of the wave function, and how consciousness seems to be fundamental to how the universe works.
