#052 - Stonecutting Secrets of the Pharaohs!

Strange Realm

Tonight we bring you the start of an all new season of strangeness! On this first episode of Season 2 we discuss the recent Neuralink implantee and his ability to control a computer mouse with his mind, the amazing new Super Disk technology that's like having 100 harddrives on one DVD, and then we go lower-tech to discuss the benefits of electroculture in beekeeping, and a rousing rundown of just how the Ancient Egyptians cut and moved all that granite! All of this and then after the break, we continue our reading series as Frobisher finishes "Darkness Walks: The Shadow People Among Us," by Jason Offutt and starts into our next book, "Our Haunted Planet," by John A. Keel.
