Vikings in America: This Is Why We Can't Have Nice Things - Ep 145

In this episode of A Life in Ruins Podcast, the lads sail themselves into the tempest that is the hoaxes, pseudoscience, and popular culture of Vikings in North America. We start off by going into the history and timing of the Viking Age and their settlements in Iceland, Greenland, and their short stay in Newfoundland. Then we get into hoaxes like the Vinland Map, the Kensington Rune Stone, and the recent nonsense of Vikings making their way up the Mississippi River and then to Oklahoma.

A Conversation with Carlton: Migrations and Megafauna in the Western Hemisphere - Ep 143

In this episode, Carlton goes rogue and does an episode by himself. No co-hosts, no guest, just Carlton letting out his thoughts. For episode 143, Carlton delves into People of the Americas, Clovis vs Pre-Clovis, and Pleistocene Megafauna extinctions. What starts off as a lecture in the first two segments definitely turns into a rant by the time he gets to talking about the “overkill” hypothesis. If you enjoy this type of podcast format, please be sure to email us and let us know; Carlton said he’d be happy to do episodes like this more often.
