from Never a straight answer · host Never a straight answer podcas

288# Before the Waters Rise | Ancient Floods and Modern Warning SignsAcross continents, cultures, and thousands of years, humanity has told the same story: that the world was once destroyed by water, civilisation wiped away, and life forced to begin again. Tonight, we investigate the Great Flood — not as a single religious tale, but as a global human memory. Why do civilisations that never met tell the same story? Were these myths inspired by real catastrophic floods, lost coastlines, or something even older? And if the world really did drown once… what survived? 🎙️ Listen & Subscribe:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Amazon Music⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠YouTube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Google Podcasts (deprecated – now YouTube Music)⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠RSS Feed⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🛍️ Merch:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠NASApodcast Store⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ – T-shirts, stickers & more paranormal gear💸 Support the show:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Patreon⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy Me a Coffee⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠PayPal⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠📖 Check out our new book!Never a Straight Answer: The UFO Files is now available on Blurb:👉 ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Buy the book on Blurb⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🌟 NEW Children’s Book! 🚀"Taylor's Cosmic Adventure"🌌 Available now on Amazon!Get ready for an out-of-this-world journey with Taylor, a curious young explorer who blasts off into space on the adventure of a lifetime! 🌠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Taylors-Cosmic-Adventure-Gary-Duncan⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠
