And I've never seen...
any egyptologist explain things that way like i think that's i think that's a good explanation at least and i'm open to things in egypt being much older like the sphinx is definitely older than the pyramids um but uh i'm just always disappointed at like the very low level with which um archaeologists and anthropologists will come in and try to explain things to a popular audience and it's kind of like you were asking okay but how do you know that like explain that to me right in a way that i can understand how do you know this and there's never a proper explanation and i
don't know what that is it's like it's like they strongly dislike the fact that there's mystery out there and that there are other people who are attempting to enter the mystery that are not part of the good boys club you know so they have this exactly so they have this knee-jerk reaction to it all they hate all of it they don't want to be a part of all of it and um that's not going to work going forward like
You know, not to be political, but this recent election showed that you're going to have to appeal to the popular audience in the future. Everyone is, you know.
Exactly.
There's two things I'll say there. You know, kind of like I guess a running theme of this is we're about to enter into like an archaeological Wild West in a way. You know, I think that, you know, Jimmy getting involved with with Gobekli Tepe and the trees that were there, having the trees, the orchards planted over the sites. And they're removing them now. Yeah.
And it's just it's just proof that a guy like I started watching Jimmy 2018. I mean, gosh, was I I just graduated from high school. And so he was kind of – like inspired me to be like – he was this young charismatic guy that could go online and research topics and enthusiastically present these topics. And he was effective at doing it and inspired me for a long time.
And lo and behold, I guess what, six, seven years later, he's still at it. And he's actually – Not just inspired people to be interested in the ancient world but had an actual effect on something on the opposite side of the planet.
Like when all this happened, I was like – I was like, yeah, I mean I get the concern but I don't think the Turkish government cares what any of us over here in the US think. Sure enough, they removed the trees. And then there's kind of like the backpedaling of – of, oh, well, it was always in the plan to remove the trees. But I think people might disagree with Jimmy's approach, whatever.
But you can't deny the fact that he himself, an independent guy, was able to make so much noise that he affected a government on the opposite side of the planet. You know, and it's and in a way it's like it shows me like, oh, you know, these these expeditions that I'm planning and things that I'm going to go out and survey and document for myself. Like these can make these can make real changes.
And these are things I had planned in Florida, here in the here in the southeast, in the States, in Central America and in the Amazon. And it's like encouraging. Like, wow, I mean, we're really approaching. a time when independent people are going to start making real noticeable differences, and not just in the digital space where people are interested in.
Trilithon Stones. Trilithon Stones.
Yeah, yeah. Well, attacking each other. I mean I just experienced this the other day. So I had a – I guess being early on in my career, I'm passionate about so many different things, and I'm the kind of person that's like, oh, I'm passionate about this. This is what I'm going to do.
And so I applied to the University of Athens in Greece, and I was really into the classics, and I was going to go for that. And then I just had this – let's just say I was in the jungle, and I had a mind-opening experience, and I was reminded of the fact that – My purpose here, the reason I started doing all this was continuing my family's legacy. I'm interested in a lot of different things.
I'm not going to specialize. I'm not going to hunker down in this academic path or whatever. I just decided I'm not going to go through with this. I start publishing content in my research on the Americas again. And the Americas are very mysterious. I mean, very comparable to Egypt. The amount of questions that haven't been answered is insane. And the Olmec world is fascinating.
And so, you know, Graham in Fingerprints of the Gods, he talks about how the Olmecs, he thought that they may have like African features. And, of course, that was 1995.
And so, I don't know, 2015, you guys are talking, and he's like, well, you know, I published that then, but DNA research has come out that says that these people don't have African DNA in them and that maybe this is Polynesian, maybe this is Australasian people intermixing, and that's why they have this unique look, whatever.
But in the Olmec world, there's this monument that is actually called El Negro. And you look at it, and it's not an Olmec. It is an African man. And so I post about this on my ex-account, and I just kind of like list everything I've seen in the Olmec world. And I'm like, you know, this is really fascinating. Maybe this is evidence of Africans who were in the Olmec world.
And I hadn't seen this monument before I saw it in person. Because you go in the Olmec realm or the region in Mexico and you go to these museums and you look at the log or the ledger that people have been on and nobody has visited this museum in the last four months. And before that, it was six months before that.
And these monuments just kind of sit underneath these metal roofs to protect them from the rain. It's like this completely lost civilization.
