What if history got it wrong? Deep in the ruins of Cambodia’s Ta Prohm temple—where Tomb Raider was filmed—there’s a carving that defies explanation. It looks exactly like a stegosaurus… but it was carved centuries before modern paleontology even existed.
Coincidence? Misinterpretation? Or could this be proof that dinosaurs and humans once coexisted?
In this episode, we dive into one of archaeology’s most fascinating mysteries. From lost dinosaur survivors to ancient fossil discoveries, we explore shocking evidence from across the world—including prehistoric carvings in Peru, Mexico, and even England—that could turn everything you thought you knew about history on its head.
Skeptics scoff, scientists shake their heads, but after what I saw… well, you might just question everything.
Takeaways:
The Ta Prohm temple in Cambodia features a carving resembling a stegosaurus, raising questions about the coexistence of dinosaurs and humans. Experts assert that the stegosaurus existed approximately 150 million years ago, creating a time paradox with the temple's 12th-century construction. Theories explaining the stegosaurus carving range from the survival of a small dinosaur population to the Khmer discovering and accurately depicting fossils. Other global artifacts, such as the Acambaro Figures and Ica Stones, suggest a historical connection between humans and dinosaurs, prompting further investigation into ancient knowledge.Got a Story Idea?

Quetzalcoatl. Kolkan. The Feathered Serpent. No matter what name you use, this legendary figure has been at the heart of Mesoamerican mythology for centuries. But was it just a myth—or something more?
In this episode, we’re diving deep into the history, mystery, and symbolism of the Feathered Serpent. This isn’t just some ancient god that people used to worship—its story has been shaped, twisted, and used for political control over generations. The line between history and mythology? Yeah, it’s pretty blurry.
And I’ve got the perfect guest to help me unpack it all—Steven Moore, an adventurer and author whose travels and research bring this legend to life. Together, we’ll explore how the Feathered Serpent has influenced everything from cultural identity to adventure storytelling today.
So what do you think? Was Quetzalcoatl a misunderstood deity? A tool for rulers to maintain power? Or something even stranger? Let’s find out.
Takeaways:
The Feathered Serpent, known as Quetzalcoatl, embodies a rich tapestry of myth and legend across Mesoamerican cultures. Quetzalcoatl's symbolism transcends individual civilizations, acting as a powerful unifying figure among them. The notion of cultural assimilation suggests that earlier deities were adapted by conquering cultures for political control. The importance of firsthand experiences in writing is emphasized as it fosters authenticity and depth in storytelling.Got a Story Idea?

The Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull is one of the most mysterious, controversial and down right weird artifacts of all time. The inspiration behind the Indiana Jones movie, it was discovered in 1924 by a young woman called Anna Mitchell-Hedges.
She claims to have discovered this bizarre, almost impossibly well-crafted crystal skull in the ruins of an ancient Mayan city called Lubaantun. Carved from a single piece of quartz, with a detachable jawbone, the object seemed way too advanced for the time period. Naturally, stories of its supernatural powers followed.
Anna swore the skull could glow, change temperature, and even predict major world events. Scientists, of course, weren’t buying it. But that didn’t stop her from spending her entire life defending its mystical reputation.
Join me as we dive into the history, the myths, and the ongoing debate around the Mitchell-Hedges Crystal Skull. Let’s see if we can separate fact from fiction… or if the truth is even stranger than we thought.
Takeaways:
The discovery of the Mitchell-Hedges skull in 1924 led to extraordinary claims about its supernatural powers. Anna Mitchell-Hedges experienced strange phenomena associated with the skull throughout her life, including mysterious lights and temperature changes (apparently!) Despite skepticism from the scientific community, Anna's conviction about the skull's powers remained unwavering until her death in 2007. The origins and craftsmanship of the crystal skull remain a mystery, intriguing both enthusiasts and skeptics alike.Got a Story Idea?
