The search for the Lost City of the Monkey God has gone on for over a century. One claimed to have found it, in the 1940s, but he died before being able to return. Today, explorers and scientists have used cutting-edge technology to once again locate this mysterious city.

This week on the Notcast, Brent and Ryan talk to Douglas Preston about his search for the lost city, and the dangers his team faced along the way. These dangers included mile-high mountains, venomous snakes, drug cartels, and even a mysterious flesh-eating illness.
