    timely discussion, well played. Compelling content - I used to love the greek mythology stories when really I should have been reading about the ancient history of regular people.
    Love the humor jabs 😂

      Hah. Well, I cut our some detail. Someone was trying to split the trunk with wedges. Milo came up and said nah, I can do it with my hands and put his hands in the splits. The farmer took off to let him work
      When the wedges got dislodged accidentally, Milos hands were stuck and the wolves came later and ate him

    In my book Kleitomachos and Theagenes were the greatest, the only two people to win in all three combat sports (boxing, wrestling and pankration/mma). I can't think of anything like that today, the closest would be open weight world champions in an elite wrestling or striking art who then go on to be world champions in mma. But not all three. Maybe if Pawel Nastula, Francis Ngannou, Fedor, or someone similar practiced all three from childhood. But it's likely impossible, since there is so much more competition, and getting to the top is more difficult.

    Hey Mr Dribble!! Just letting you know Im here to check out your page for the first time after I saw your 'performace' on the Joe Rogan show where you 'debated' Graham Hancock. Ive got to say, I dont think it would be fair if I didnt come and congratulate you for how hard your tried!! Obviously you were WAY out of your depth as you seem to be relying on really outdated 'evidence', (your understanding of the historical record is patchy at best! lol. You have missed out on at least one full incarnation of humanity where we reached a technoligical level past our own today, only to be blasted back to the stineage by an asteroid... ..there is 100% IRREFUTABLE evidence for this happening at LEAST once, b ut it could have happened even more times (I have accessed memories of me riding a dinosaur under deep hynosis before whuch is pretty solid evidence we were around even back then - the woman who hypnotised me NEVER gets it wrong), for a pseudo archaeoligist you did pretty well. Espcially brave to take on Graham Hancock, he's like the Einstein of Archaeology. Chariots of the Gods is THE best history book I have EVER READ and basuically rewrote the history of our species. I am looking at booking a week with the hypnotist and a coupl of ghost writers to access my absolute memories of domesticating a tyrannosaurus rex, and am going to complete, or at least firther the field next year. I am jus tsaving up the £25k she needs for that level of work. All you pseudo arhcaeologists are FINOSHED then Dribble, you wont be so smug then when the whole world if FORCED to accept we had wifi, microwave ovens, space travel, robots, all at the time we were co existing with dinosaurs. FACT.
