Ancient Apocalypse - In the ruins of knowledge (ft. Dr. Bill Farley and History with Kayleigh)

In this episode, we continue to look into Graham Hancock's new Netflix show, Ancient Apocalypse. Join Fredrik, who uses his background in archaeology and a bit of skepticism to look deeper into the claims presented in the show. Is Hancock on to something we missed, or are there better explanations?

In part one, we learned about Graham Hancock's origin and inspiration. This time we use this knowledge to look into the claims presented in the show.

We will first visit Gunung Padang, a site some claim was constructed in 20 000 BCE and is the world's largest pyramid. Next, we go to Cholula, the largest accepted pyramid, and investigate claims that giants constructed it. Lastly, we travel to Malta, home to some of the oldest megalithic temples, and explore the Sirius connection.
