Ancient Apocalypse - the name of the series. He shared on Joe Rogan's podcast that he will do a second season if the first one is a success.

Dont know why your getting downvoted, both Hancock and Rogan are awful excuses for human beings

Because much like every other cult, Hancock fans are effectively impossible to convince that he's a total fraud. So every time anyone (rightly) criticizes him, they get downvoted and usually accused of being part of the secret cabal of archaeologists that are suppressing information for whatever reason.

They'll go the way of flat earthers and moon landing deniers eventually, but Rogan has been boosting the hell out of him.

It's just so frustrating. Just because we're shape-shifting lizards, normal humans, doesn't mean we control the disk world!!

Please speak with facts not just some idle talk and hateful speech for other people's work. At least they are not harming anyone, neither they are spreading personal frustrations.

I feel so sorry for even entering this discussion and being part of this hateful dialogue.

Purposeful misinformation, aka fraud, is harmful.

That's really sad you'd say that about someone rather than just that you don't think their ideas are right.

They're saying it about people who have been given ample empirical evidence their hypothesis are incorrect as well as ample opportunities to accept that reality.

Instead they choose not to, double down on ignorance, and spread fraudulent information for profit.

That's why they are horrible people.

They prey on ignorance for profit.

They create fictitious narratives to promote their brands.

They try to draw parallels between fairytales and mountains of carefully accumulated scientific research, and then have the audacity to call it "free thinking".

Not only are they garbage humans, they are criminally dangerous and should be called out at every opportunity

Worth bitingo Hancock has the series on Netflix because his son works for Netflix in charge of procurement of this genre of program, not because the ideas have suddenly gained merit.

Hell yeah brother, been inspiring new generations still. It's been like 6-8 years since I was really into him, but I'm glad I got to experience his writings.
