Jason Wilde: From Sky Lords to Water Sages, The Forgotten Ties that Shape Civilization
Earth AncientsSep 12, 2026
Author and independent researcher Jason Andrew Wilde argues that ancient myths, especially Sumerian accounts of the sky-descending Anunnaki and the fish-like Apkallu sages, are distorted memories of real history after the Younger Dryas flood. He favors a 'survivor hypothesis' in which seafaring remnants of an advanced pre-flood culture emerged from the Persian Gulf and rebooted civilization, though he does not rule out ancient beings living beneath the sea. Wilde also recounts a childhood UFO encounter with missing time, a levitating guru in India, and his belief that UAPs are interdimensional beings.
Randall Carlson: The Lost World Before the Flood
Earth AncientsAug 22, 2026
Rogue geologist Randall Carlson returns to Earth Ancients to argue that a sophisticated pre-flood civilization may have been wiped out by the Younger Dryas catastrophe around 12,900 years ago, its coastal cities now drowned under 400 feet of sea-level rise. He makes the case that Plato's Atlantis best matches subsided land masses near the Azores on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge. He also proposes that sacred sites worldwide share a common geometric blueprint, possibly the remnants of an ancient technology that harnessed telluric earth energies and plasma.
Hugh Evans: The Origins of the Zodiac
Earth AncientsAug 8, 2026
Researcher Hugh Evans claims to have found the true origin of the zodiac in a giant star map of more than 1,000 square miles laid out across the landscape of northwest Wales (Gwynedd), centered on the mountain Cadair Idris. He argues that Neolithic people, or survivors of a pre-Flood civilization linked to the biblical Enoch, encoded all twelve zodiac constellations into hills, rivers, standing stones and Welsh place names around 5000 BCE. The episode also covers ley lines, telluric earth energies, Stonehenge dating, and host Cliff's own theory that the earliest Maya were a multicultural group of migrants driven by the Younger Dryas catastrophe.
Bibhu Dev Misra: The Aztec Calendar, Ekpyrosis and the Coming Cycle of Catastrophe
Earth AncientsAug 1, 2026
Author Bibhu Dev Misra returns to Earth Ancients to argue that the Aztec 52-year New Fire cycle ends in 2026, a 'One Rabbit' year that Aztec codices and tree-ring data link to droughts and famines. He connects the Aztec fear of the Pleiades and the Taurid meteor stream to the Younger Dryas catastrophe, and warns that Earth passes through the dense Taurid swarm in 2032 and 2036. Framing it all within the end of the Kali Yuga and a Greek 'ekpyrosis', or cleansing by fire, he suggests 2029 to 2036 may be a seven-year 'tribulation' marked by the asteroid Apophis, while also proposing that UFOs come from an underground civilization.
