The Hidden Connections in Global Flood Myths & Ancient Propagandists | #574 Silly Little Podcast

https://youtu.be/_fkWBZXWxZI

Are the world's most famous ancient mysteries actually connected? In episode #574 of the Silly Little Podcast, Matthew "Mattman" Bucurel and Vinnie Greene take a deep dive into shared global mythologies, rewriting history, and the bizarre links between ancient legends.

From the shared cultural quirks between England and America to how the Greeks and Egyptians used PR to manufacture a new god (Serapis), we break down how ancient propaganda shaped our world. We also explore the fascinating science of phonetics in cuneiform, the complex sides of Roman and Greek gods like Ares, Athena, and Minerva, and why non-European flood myths from Mesoamerica match up so perfectly.

Plus, we look at the real history of Easter Island (Rapa Nui), the truth behind Viking propaganda, and how Plato’s famous storylines perfectly line up with the Younger Dryas impact hypothesis and Neanderthal hunting habits. Finally, we dig into the Book of Enoch, asteroid impacts, and a hilarious look back at Mattman’s very first job.
