the Silurian Hypothesis

In this episode, Noelle breaks our brains with The Silurian Hypothesis, a speculative concept proposing the possibility of advanced civilizations existing on Earth millions of years before humans. We explore the scientific evidence and theories behind this thought-provoking idea, questioning what traces, if any, could remain from such ancient societies. Join us as we unravel the mysteries of Earth's deep past and ponder the limits of our understanding.

Stay tuned after the show for the heartbreaking, gut wrenching story... of Ground Beef Greg.
