My Top 10 Favorite Cryptids - Ep 178

Time to define what Cryptids are! People ask me about these beloved creatures (who don’t exist) almost more often than actual archaeology stuff!

After uploading a quick video on Instagram about the top two stupidest pseudoarchaeology stories of all time, the one and only Flint Dibble said that I, Dr. Professor Andrew Kinkella PhD, had gotten something wrong. He said the Silurian hypothesis didn’t contain any lizard people! What?!? I quickly re-checked my research, and found out he was right. But I was right too!

Art Bell and the Coast to Coast AM Radio Show - Ep 174

Pseudo-Archaeology ·

2025/11/05

Back in the 90s, I would often take late night drives between the San Francisco Bay Area (where my parents lived) and Santa Barbara (where I went to college). During the dark, lonely hours cruising down highway 101, I’d listen to a funky, weird, slightly creepy yet interesting radio show. I never quite understood what it was. That’s because it was Art Bell’s Coast to Coast AM radio show.TranscriptsMessage for Simplecast: For rough transcripts of this episode head over to

I noticed some heated online arguments in the anthropology world about human sexuality, where several noted anthropologists recommended the book “Sex is a Spectrum” by Agustin Fuentes, so I read it.

It’s time to talk about the hardest question in all of archaeology! This is something I get asked about a lot, plus there is a pseudoarchaeological component to this (130 thousand year old sites in the New World?).

2025/09/10

Graham Hancock posted a 75 minute YouTube video about how people like me are frauds, but people like him are just poor, attacked heroes fighting for justice. I thought a good move here would be to not bother fighting against his silly pseudoarchaeology stories too much this time (that’s what all my other podcast episodes are for!), but instead have a little fun by analyzing his video through the lens of narcissism (while still making fun of his idiotic stories at the same time - I can do both at the

2025/05/21

So I went to the annual Society for American Archaeology meetings in Denver weekend before last. I presented on my archaeology work on the Maya cenotes in Belize, but I also spent lots of time listening to (and assisting with) presentations on how to present archaeology to the public. What I learned: some people absolutely understand how to present archaeology to the public, and some people have no clue. Tune in to figure out who’s who!

So there I was, minding my own business when the Ronald Reagan Library gave me a call and asked me to check out their exhibit on the Dead Sea Scrolls! Did they want me because I am a world-renowned archaeologist, or because I’m an archaeologist who lives only 10 minutes away?
