E076 - *NEW* Unsolved Ancient Mysteries That Science Can’t Explain (alien gods?)

<strong>This week's episode is a special one.</strong><br />I’m joined by explorer and author ‪Matthew LaCroix‬, a researcher dedicated to uncovering the secrets of ancient history. With a deep passion for challenging mainstream narratives, Matt explores the lost civilisations, advanced technologies, and forgotten sites that reshape our understanding of the past.<br /><br />In this episode, we dive into The Great Pyramid debate, the mysteries beneath the Sphinx, and the evidence of lost technology in ancient stonework. Matt breaks down why historical timelines may be wrong, how global floods reshaped civilisation, and what hidden tunnels beneath ancient sites could reveal. We also tackle the Anunnaki mystery, the question of human origins, and whether past civilisations had knowledge far beyond what we assume.<br /><br />Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation that challenges everything you thought you knew about history.<br /><br /><strong>Timestamps:</strong><br />00:00 Diving into ancient mysteries<br />01:24 Matthew's path to hidden history<br />03:28 Graham Hancock’s research and Turkey's secrets<br />04:50 Unearthing forgotten sites<br />06:26 Challenging historical timelines<br />10:56 Lost technology in ancient stonework<br />15:02 Mysteries of unfinished monuments<br />17:33 Inside the pyramids debate<br />22:45 Beneath the Sphinx: hidden tunnels<br />28:37 How ancient civilisations collapsed<br />32:12 Why ancient sites were buried<br />35:45 The Sphinx's true origins<br />37:57 Discovering Lake Van's underwater world<br />43:07 Science backs lost civilisations<br />48:00 Turkey's role in ancient history<br />51:33 Breaking down historical myths<br />56:17 Understanding the Anunnaki<br />1:01:09 The mystery of human origins<br />1:06:01 Global flood stories and civilization resets<br />1:11:13 The cycle of rise and fall civilisations<br />1:16:43 Could our civilization collapse?<br />1:21:32 Ancient abilities and ET connections<br />1:24:00 History's biggest question…<br />1:25:38 Essential reading for ancient mysteries<br />1:27:19 Next adventures and documentary plans<br />1:30:49 Why ancient sites still captivate us<br /><br /><strong>Links:</strong><br />&raquo; Escape the 9-5 & build your dream life - <a href="https://www.digitalplaybook.net/">https://www.digitalplaybook.net/</a><br />&raquo; Transform your physique - <a href="https://www.thrstapp.com/">https://www.thrstapp.com/</a><br />&raquo; My clothing brand, THRST - <a href="https://thrstofficial.com">https://thrstofficial.com</a><br />&raquo; Custom Bioniq supplements: <a href="https://www.bioniq.com/mikethurston">https://www.bioniq.com/mikethurston</a><br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&bull; 40% off your first month of Bioniq GO<br />&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&bull; 20% off your first month of Bioniq PRO<br /><br />&raquo; Join ​⁠<strong>@Whoop</strong> and get your first month for free - <a href="https://join.whoop.com/FirstThingsThrst">join.whoop.com/FirstThingsThrst</a><br /><br /><strong>Follow Matt&laquo;</strong><br />YouTube: / @matthewlacroix<br />Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/thestageoftime">https://www.instagram.com/thestageoftime</a><br />Website: <a href="https://thestageoftime.com">https://thestageoftime.com</a>
