Author and explorer Andrew Collins joins us for a fascinating conversation about the origins of civilization, agriculture, and megalithic construction in the deep past, as evidenced by sites like Gobekli Tepe, Karahan Tepe, and others in modern day Turkey. We discuss Giants, Nephilim, Annunaki, the mysterious Denisovans, and a possible cult of the Cosmic Serpent in deep prehistory.

Much of this discussion is on the subjects in Andrew's latest book, "Karahan Tepe: Civilization of the Annunaki and the Cosmic Origins of the Serpent of Eden", which you can get here:
