10,000 years ago of all kinds of titans roamed America, and I mean ALL KINDS, we're talking giant beavers, mammoths, wolves and more... Thankfully for us we no longer have to worry about a not-so friendly Smilodon jumping us while out running, but the same could not be said for the Native Americans, who not only lived alongside them but also managed to thrive.

Show notes

150,000,000 years ago the Earth was a completely different place. Dinosaurs roamed the lands, pterosaurs ruled the skies, and all manners of nightmares lurked in the waters. But this barely does justice in describing the wonder that was Earth during this time period, which was also known as the golden age of dinosaurs, i.e the late Jurassic!

We're talking giant lions, massive cows, 2-meter birds, and more...

The T. Rex’s Brutal Asian Older Brother May 06, 2024
