Brothers of the Serpent

We continue exploring the fascinating information in Charles Hapgood's book, Path of the Pole, starting this week with a detailed look at pleistocene deposits in South America that contain enormous amounts of megafauna and, sometimes, human remains. In caves, valleys, and massive mud deposits, these fossil remains speak of a geologically recent catastrophic event. We then move on to Hapgood's discussion on the subject of evolution, and how his crustal displacement theory may help to fill in gaps in the explanatory power of natural selection and mutation.   Get the Kindle version of the book here: https://www.amazon.com/Path-Pole-Cataclysmic-Shift-Geology-ebook/dp/B003F7PEFG/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=   Executive Producers: Cortes Studio Matt Shy Peter Shell Associate Executive Producers: Daniel Gandy Frank M.

We are joined on this episode by Marty Garza, guest and researcher from the UFO series, and Seriah Azkath, host of the excellent podcast Where Did the Road Go, for a full length roundtable discussion on the topic of UFOs.  We start with the current state of things in the UFO/UAP subject, then the conversation morphs into a much more broad discussion on the nature of the phenomena itself. You can find Seriah's podcast here: https://wheredidtheroadgo.com/

We continue our in-depth reading and discussion on Charles Hapgood's Path of the Pole, finishing up the section on megafauna extinctions in North America at the end of the last ice age, and moving into evidence for massive geological upheaval in South America in the recent past. Hapgood talks about the Altiplano area of Peru and Bolivia, Lake Titicaca, and Tiahuanaco, all of which show signs of being involved in an enormous geological uplift that brought the lake from contact with the ocean to its present location far above sea level.   Get the Kindle version of the book here: https://www.amazon.com/Path-Pole-Cataclysmic-Shift-Geology-ebook/dp/B003F7PEFG/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=

George Howard joins us to discuss his knowledge of the Alaskan Pleistocene bonebeds we were reading about in Path of the Pole. George has a lot of interesting information about these deposits, including a Comet Research Group study on cosmic material recovered from sediments embedded in the bones themselves. We also discuss a similar massive bonebed right here in Texas that George has known about for many years.  For various reasons, these bonebeds haven't really been properly studied, but maybe that will change in the near future...

Back to the book report! We had a great time in Egypt, and there are more Egypt episodes coming, but meanwhile we still have to complete Charles Hapgood's Path of the Pole. This week we complete the section on mountain building, continental drift, and crustal composition, and move into chapter ten, which is about the extinction of the Pleistocene megafauna.   Executive Producer: Annabel

Laura joins us in studio again for a Listener Communications episode. Thanks to all of you who have written in with your questions, comments, and stories about how you found the podcast!

We are joined in studio by Laura for more discussion on the 2022 Egypt trip. We talk about what we learned, further observations we made, and plans for the future. Laura asks us about the goals we had for this trip and if we accomplished any of them...which we did....mostly.  Kyle talks about mapping the Serapeum and jumping in and out of the boxes, checking the interiors and using resonance to get rough measurements.  We also discuss the statues, the differences in skill and style you can see between them, and the possibility that the large object that was being cut out at the Aswan Quarry might have been a rough block for a standing statue. We're getting back into the normal swing of things here at the SnakeBros Institiute, so we finish up with some Space Weather news and a few emails, and a 1Up box present for Laura.     Thanks very much to everyone who supports the show! We have the following Producers for this episode: Executive Producers: Anonymous Gordon Plant Olesia Voronova Tara Lee Sanders Tri-Vest Inc Associate Executive Producers: Claire Quinn

Marty Garza and Chuck Kizina join us for this episode, discussing their observations and speculations from the Egypt trip. Marty, who has been on the show many times for the UFO episodes, has decades of experience with engineering from his years in the Monster Truck industry. Chuck is a geologist by education, specializing in planetary science, and has a lot of experience in stone cutting and shaping. There will be a video version of this episode coming out within the next couple of days, so if you want to see the images Marty was showing toward the end, look for it on our YouTube channel!

We're back from our epic three week trip in Egypt! We learned so many things and explored many new places. We have Ben from UnchartedX on with us to discuss some of the sites we visited and our evolving thoughts on what we learned.  There is so much to discuss, expect more Egypt episodes in the coming weeks!   UnchartedX website: https://www.unchartedx.com/

Note: We are leaving for Egypt, this will be the last normal episode for a few weeks! In Part 7 of our deep dive into Charles Hapgood's The Path of the Pole, we continue the discussion of the mysteries of "orogenesis" or mountain building. What forces can cause the enormous uplifts of so much rock? What is the cause of the numerous "basalt plateaus", where enormous amounts of magma poured out from underground and covered hundreds of square miles in layers of basalt hundreds of feet thick? These questions and more are described in detail by Hapgood, in this week's episode.   Get the book here: https://www.amazon.com/Path-Pole-Cataclysmic-Shift-Geology-ebook/dp/B003F7PEFG/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=1662657062&sr=8-1
