Episode #032: Lac St-Jean & Nipigon Glacial Impacts / Energy Paradox

Summary

In this episode, Randall Carlson explores Lac Saint-Jean as a potential impact site, linking it to Lake Nipigon's geological history. He also investigates the unresolved 'Energy Paradox' related to the energy demands of transitioning out of an Ice Age. Through sourcing mid-1970s scientific papers, Carlson highlights that this paradox remains an enigma in modern science.

Key takeaways

• 1Lac Saint-Jean is analyzed as a potential impact site similar to Lake Nipigon.

Transcript excerpt

That's ancientnutrition.com, code protein. This is Cosmographia, the Randall Carlson Podcast. All right, and welcome back, ladies and gentlemen, to Cosmographia. This is another special episode where we respond to listener questions and comments, and we've been going through the Patreon supporter messages. So, you guys ready to just jump right into this? Randall? Sure, but we should probably say hello. No, no, no, let's just jump right into it. Just jump right into it? Okay. Yeah, you're right. No small talk. No small talk. No small talk, okay. Right, straight to biz. Straight to business. Okay, I can handle it. All right. Well, the first message is from David, and he says, has anyone transcribed Randall's list of relevant research papers into clickable links to said papers? I would love to volunteer for this project. I am on disability. I have a lot of free time and would be honored to add my effort in any way possible. Sincerely, David. David, we'd be honored to have your effort. So, the answer to that is yes. And I'm thinking what we're going to try to do, maybe we'll have a list of references germane to each of the podcasts that we do. So, that if I reference a paper, or even if there's a paper I don't necessarily reference directly, but relates directly to the content of the podcast, we would post that in a list. And then, over a series of episodes, once we've accumulated a longer list, we could then publish that more comprehensively. Does that make sense? That makes sense. Yeah. So, after we've accumulated a dozen or 15 or 20 podcasts, then what we can do is publish a master list, say. Ah, yeah. ...
