276. Tim James on Human Evolution, Archeological Sites, and Creating Our Future from Our Past

Paleontologist/Archeologist Tim James joins us for his third appearance on the show. Tim lives in Los Angeles. We talk archeological sites in Mexico City and Miami. How Homo Sapiens evolved more attractive facial muscles, leading to breeding advancing our species. Tim hypothesizes facial structures of the future based on the swiping of dating apps. Lidar and technology used in the field to discover and learn more about past human populations. The permafrost is melting and the biological remains and cultural artifacts would be invaluable. And much more! (24:30) Prior to the conversation, Rich hangs out at the Art Institute of Chicago Member Lounge and opens to a random page in his notebook and reads what he wrote. Topics include digital file organization, redesigning one's mind, habits, and trusting the process of self-improvement. Tim on Instagram
