EPISODE SUMMARY
In this episode of Modern Wisdom, featuring Chris Williamson and Graham Hancock, The True History Of America - Graham Hancock explores Graham Hancock Rewrites America’s Past, Psychedelics, and Ancient Cataclysms Graham Hancock argues that the human presence in the Americas is far older and more complex than orthodox archaeology allows, citing controversial sites like the Cerutti Mastodon and the 23,000-year-old White Sands footprints. He extends this challenge to mainstream narratives by highlighting under-researched regions such as the Amazon, where lidar reveals vast earthworks, ancient cities, and engineered soils that suggest sophisticated pre-Columbian civilizations. The conversation ranges from trans-oceanic seafaring and global mythic parallels to the role of psychedelics like ayahuasca in shaping human consciousness and spiritual traditions. Hancock also discusses the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis, global flood myths, and his ongoing conflict with academic archaeologists over who controls the story of the human past.
