2025/10/18

We are joined by author and researcher Patrick Chouinard, who discusses his work on the Lost Giants of Atlantis. Let's get this out of the way: he doesn't believe in a physical place named Atlantis.

Rather, the ancient use which simply traces the Iranic peoples from Asia, throughout Eurasia, the Near East, and beyond and very

I was requested to weigh in on the show "Dark". The problem was, I hadn't watched it. The lesser problem was I didn't want to do a solo show on a three season show.

Thus, three Lynbrook, NY public school kids - now AARP members - reunited for the first time to review the German mystery box show "Dark",Note: There are spoilers. Constantly.
