The marble is just hauled without wheels.

Right.

What are other questions you have that people, yeah, you're either are investigating right now or want to investigate these kinds of big picture questions of human history?

And then connecting them would be...

interbreeding events or being in the same place at the same time that we missed?

Interesting.

Sorry, when was this interpreting event?

And so the common ancestor between Neanderthals and most humans alive today is potentially more recent than the common ancestor between all humans alive today.

Yeah.

Which is crazy.

And I'm sure there's a simple explanation, but how?

Interesting.

What are the other big questions?

After the recording ended, David started spontaneously explaining a new theory he's working on about Neanderthal genetics on a whiteboard in the room, which I ended up capturing on my iPhone.

Because it's a whiteboard, I think it might be helpful to switch over to a video platform like YouTube or Spotify.

But if you can't, it's totally okay to listen on audio.

I have so many questions.

Do you have 15 more minutes?

Yeah.

Okay.
