Rob McConnell Interviews - LAIRD SCRANTON - Dogon Mysthology and Symbology Laird Scranton is an author and independent researcher best known for his in-depth studies of Dogon mythology and symbology, examining the sophisticated cosmological knowledge embedded within the traditions of the Dogon people of Mali. Scranton analyzes symbols, language structures, ritual practices, and oral traditions to argue that Dogon cosmology encodes advanced scientific concepts—particularly related to astronomy, particle physics, and the nature of reality. His work bridges anthropology, linguistics, and alternative science, offering a thought-provoking perspective on how ancient cultures may have preserved complex knowledge through symbolic systems rather than written records.

Rob McConnell Interviews - STEVEN MYERS - The Lost Knowledge and Technologies of The Great Pyramid In this compelling interview, Steven Myers explores The Lost Knowledge and Technologies of the Great Pyramid, delving into the enduring mysteries surrounding one of humanity’s greatest achievements. Myers examines evidence suggesting that the Great Pyramid of Giza was far more than a royal tomb—possibly a sophisticated structure tied to advanced mathematics, astronomy, acoustics, and energy science. Drawing on historical records, engineering anomalies, and modern research, this discussion challenges conventional explanations and invites listeners to reconsider what ancient civilizations truly knew. A fascinating journey into forgotten science, sacred geometry, and the possibility that advanced knowledge from the distant past has been lost to time.
