Thank you for listening to Behind Greatness . We talk today with Michael Cremo from his home in LA. Michael is best known for his research and work in authoring a global best-seller in the 1990s: Forbidden Archeology. He brings us through his journey of an exploratory life starting with his youth spent as the son of an air-force intelligence officer. We talk about his seminal research work. Here, he first discovered that something was amiss as he researched what narrative the world’s prominent academic archeologists were fashioning in the late 1800s. Do we talk about a shoe print dating back millions of years? Do we talk about confronting an agenda of opinions forced through the educational system? Do we talk about paradigm-shifting discoveries made in near the Sierra Nevada? Do we talk remote viewing with Stephan Schwartz? Do we talk about physical reality vs consciousness? Do we talk hidden knowledge? Do we talk challenging Darwinism? Yes, ma’am. We do.

See episodes with Stephane Schwartz (ep 155, 156).
