New video! I wanted to provide an introduction video for my channel, in particular for people that are new to the whole debate around the roots of our history. To explain the premise behind much of my other work, and to try and briefly (!) make the case for re-writing history.

Hi, Ben.
I discovered your work on Youtube a few weeks ago and have since been enjoying quite a bit of it.
I am a skeptic (in the James Randi/Michael Shermer vein), though a rather reluctant one.
I find your work extremely well put together and you seem as open-minded as you contend. Also, you generally articulate your ideas coherently, which is a treat. And I genuinely commend and admire your handling of conventional scientific materials, etc.
That all being said, I am struck by what seem to me to be a few chronic inconsistencies in your methodology, and about which I have become quite curious.
Would you be at all up for a longer-form dialog wherein I might ask you about these? I would be lying if promised not to challenge you in certain particulars. But I CAN promise the only axe I have to grind as a best-possible understanding of available evidence. And I THINK (though I can’t be sure, I suppose) I am willing to be convinced to accept any unorthodox scientific hypothesis, given sufficient –– and sufficiently good –– evidence.
If you’d rather not, I understand completely. Honestly, your output suggests you have scarce little in the way of any free time. I would add, however, if you are at all interested in coaxing guys like me to really give a full, fair hearing to ideas from guys like you, I’ve zeroed in on a few red flags that can give some of us Doubting Thomases a rash.
Either way, thanks for any consideration and the swell content.

Hi Jeffrey,
thanks for the comment! One day I’d love to discuss/debate these things. I find there is a lot to learn in civil discourse and debate with people that don’t share you own views, seems like much of the world is lacking in this capability these days.
As you suggested and I can confirm, I’m very busy between trying to grow this channel, and trying to grow food on the small farm that I live on (and renovate the house). I have to get my setup figured up for interviews/discussions, and I have a decent list of people already queued up for when that happens. That said, once I do get myself organized in that direction I may well take you up on that offer, if nothing else we can connect on skype or the like and flesh out the discussion a little bit just for our own benefit. Seems like I should get that discord server running.
cheers

Hi John,
my email is ben@unchartedx.com, feel free to hit me up. Thanks for the kind words!
cheers!
Hey Ben, I have some additional info you may not have come across, I see you giving your email out for contributions to John above ^^ but feel a little cheeky just spamming you without asking nicely first, so may I forward you some info/ideas I have from my 40+ yrs of studying ancient builders? Not woo or flat earth, honest!! Just fact (or best available data) based possible conclusions and a big chunk of zero comet impacts and a possible alternative catastrophe not mentioned in this context anywhere I can find. Would rather not share here before giving you a chance to review the info first as it may detract from your eminent Stirling work here to date!
yours, jack
Thanks Jack, please feel free to hit me up on email 🙂

Hi Ben – I’ll join thousands of others who think your channel is one of the best I’ve ever come across in my 25 years of perusing the great time waster.
In the early 70’s I discovered Peter Tompkins books about the Giza pyramids and the discoveries of the various sites known about in the America’s at that time and was excited by the research he put together in those books. I think I must have read each one several times in the 70’s. Then after reading John Michell, Churchwood and everything else available at the time my interest waned, there just didn’t seem to be anything new coming down the pike.
I have become re-interested in the topic mainly because of your podcast which has also led me to the other pod-casters you mention and I feel like I’m up to speed.
What seems odd to me is that only very rarely do I hear Tompkins name mentioned on any of the channels I listen to and wonder why? Is it because his work has been superseded or because he was mainly a collator of information rather than a researcher himself, maybe he’s not considered relevant anymore, or…?
I’m not feeling like there’s anything suspicious or unusual in this, just wondering. Thanks Ben (and no worries about answering this, I know you have a very busy life)
Thanks for giving us such insight into the wonders of Egypt. I know Egypt- been many times but you keep blowing me away …stuff I never knew existed –
I just visited the Serapeum and Abu Sir for the 1sr time last January!
Going to return when the new museum is open
