Roger Spur's Increasing Visibility

Roger Spur, the founder of Mud Fossil University, has recently started revealing his face in YouTube videos, showcasing a friendly-looking man in his 60s. This move surprised the audience, as Roger had been a faceless voice for years. Despite his ordinary appearance, Roger is deeply involved in his unique obsession with mud fossils, claiming they are mineralized soft tissues preserved in stone. His YouTube channel has amassed over 2,800 videos and 187,000 subscribers, all without any advertisements or charges. Despite being rejected by the scientific community, Roger's ideas draw inspiration from Immanuel Velikovsky, a controversial figure who believed ancient myths referred to real interplanetary catastrophes.
