What drives us to believe in the unbelievable? Join me on this intriguing episode as we explore how "Discerning the Unknown" grew from debunking wild conspiracy theories to unraveling the psychological intricacies behind our beliefs. We start with some nostalgic reminiscing about my childhood, like those afternoons watching "The Price is Right," and how these moments shaped my curiosity. I then welcome Neil Laird, the celebrated LGBTQIA multiple Emmy-nominated director renowned for his historical documentaries on networks like Discovery and National Geographic. Our conversation spans his fascinating work, touching on time travel, reincarnation, and phenomena that defy explanation.
Next, I share my lifelong passion for ancient history, particularly Egypt, sparked by countless hours in the New York Public Library and culminating in awe-inspiring trips to Egypt itself. These experiences fueled my desire to incorporate rich historical narratives and queer characters into my writing, reflecting the historical acceptance of same-sex relationships in ancient cultures. We'll talk about the challenges faced in traditional publishing and the liberating decision to self-publish my time-travel fantasy series, ensuring the integrity of my characters and themes remains intact.
Finally, we dissect the allure of historical conspiracies and modern theories, from the mysteries of the Great Sphinx to the controversies surrounding the Oklahoma City bombing and JFK assassination. Discover how Neil and I sift through sensational claims to find simpler truths, and why people often prefer elaborate narratives. We also discuss the potential of modern technology in historical research and preservation. Stay tuned for an exciting announcement about an upcoming interview with the legendary Egyptologist, Zahi Hawass. This episode is packed with unforgettable insights and historical revelations you won't want to miss!
