I do like Graham's sophisticated sounding voice..his accent makes him sound almost classy. Almost. :tonguesmi

Yea I was running around the country trying to find a AM station that would last for more than 15 minutes!

You know as much as I love radios (just love the looks of them) since I started streaming I haven't looked back.

I was forever turning the radio around, adjusting the antenna, heck I even had the radio by the side of my bed sitting on a 50's vanity chair which swivels and would in my sleep keep turning the chair around to get a good signal.

Hi there Diogenes! Thanks for the link.
GRAHAM HANCOCK is the author of the major international bestsellers The Sign and The Seal, Fingerprints of the Gods, and Heaven's Mirror. His books have sold more than five million copies worldwide and have been translated into 27 languages. His public lectures, radio and TV appearances, including two major TV series for Channel 4 in the UK and The Learning Channel in the US - Quest For The Lost Civilisation and Flooded Kingdoms of the Ice Age - have put his ideas before audiences of tens of millions. He has become recognised as an unconventional thinker who raises controversial questions about humanity's past.
I like Egyptology and ancient history in general. I'm pretty friendly to most C2C topics except a few.

Art sure came up with and found great guests - that is for sure.

Of course they reflected his varied interest level.

I still drive truck on occasion and I don't know what I would do without satellite radio. Find a station and listen clear across the country.

Not sure what building method Hancock thinks the Egyptians used, man-power, alien-power, supernatural power...? If some men (and women) built these over a period of time it is quite an amazing feat. I wish we knew more - lots of missing info.

He's talking about the astronomy that was used to survey and lay out the area..

He agrees there are many inconsistencies, unanswered questions too.

I hear podcasts are very popular with the over-the-roaders. Whatever you like, there's a podcast made on that topic. And most have no ads - or at least ads may be fast forwarded.
