You know the shade is always shadiest right here.

Season six of the podcast Reasonably Shady with Giselle Bryan and Robin Dixon is here, dropping every Monday.

And you know we don't hold back.

So come be reasonable or shady with us each and every Monday.

I was going through a walk in my neighborhood.

And we'll talk about some of the classic great moments of famous business geniuses, along with some of the darker moments that often get overlooked.

Like Thomas Edison and the electric chair.

All right, so you mentioned before the break at some point that Doggerland was not named Doggerland at this point.

It would be, I think, 1998 before that name would finally be coined.

And again, this was still like just sort of the scientific community that was getting pretty excited.

Like even the broader archaeological community was still not super pumped on this area yet.

Mm-hmm.

They were studying it in the 70s, but in 1998, a archaeologist named Briony Coles put out a paper called Doggerland Colon, a speculative survey wherein, and this is what made the scientific community kind of say like, ooh, what's she talking about?

Um, she named it dogger land after that sand bank, the dogger bank, like you were talking about.

And she's the first one that said, you know what, everyone, I think people like lived here and I think it was kind of pretty awesome.

Yeah, maybe she busted into the room and said, that was no land bridge.

Yeah.

Yeah, that's a weird addition.
