IF YOU WERE looking for evidence of a global catastrophe followed by a mysterious civilization that somehow survived, you might not start with the Americas.
However, contrarian investigator and author Graham Hancock has done just that with season 2 of his Netflix series Ancient Apocalypse.
Our Iron and Myth crew gather to discuss Hancock’s work in this second season. Joining us at the virtual round table is Dr. Judd Burton (www.BurtonBeyond.net), author of Interview with the Giant,Doug Van Dorn(www.douglasvandorn.com), author of Giants: Sons of the Gods, and Brian Godawa (www.Godawa.com), best-selling author of the theological thriller Cruel Logic, and a new novel based on the period of the Maccabees in Judea.
Ancient Apocalypse is very well done. We discuss the questions it raises about lost civilizations, and the implications of new archaeological discoveries. We critique the documentary’s potential biases and the role of propaganda in shaping narratives. The discussion also touches on the connections between ancient myths, geometric patterns, and the use of hallucinogenic substances in historical contexts, ultimately emphasizing the importance of understanding different worldviews in interpreting archaeological findings.
We appreciate Hancock for asking the right questions. However, he’s got a great big blind spot right in front of the answers.
Also: New Age guru Billy Carson gets schooled in a debate by Christian scholar Wes Huff and then self-destructs online.
