Podcast cover

The Joe Rogan Experience

Joe Rogan interviews Michael Button, a YouTube content creator specializing in ancient history, about his unconventional views on the timeline of civilization. They discuss evidence suggesting human societies were more advanced and existed much earlier than traditionally believed, pointing to sites like Göbekli Tepe and the recently discovered Colombo structure. They explore the limitations of the fossil record, the potential for cataclysms to erase evidence of past civilizations, and the arrogance of some academics in dismissing alternative theories. They touch on the mysteries of ancient Egypt, the possibility of advanced technology in the ancient world, and the implications of recent discoveries, such as the three-fingered mummies in Peru, for our understanding of human history and the potential for extraterrestrial influence.
