The Lost History of North America, part 5: Have Native Americans Always Been Here?
Have Native Americans always been in America? It’s obvious that they’ve been here for a long time—long before Europeans arrived. But did their ancestors ever live somewhere else? It’s a much more contentious question than many people realize, and one with answers you’ve probably never guessed.

The Lost History of North America, part 4: What if the Pilgrims had landed in AD 1000?
What if the Pilgrims had landed, not in 1620, but centuries earlier? Who would have hailed them on the shores of Cape Cod or Plymouth? If your answer is any one of the many Algonquian tribes who ruled the Eastern Seaboard at the time of European contact, such as the Narragansetts or Massachusetts, you would be wrong.
In AD 1000 the residents of what is now New England and New Jersey and Washington DC weren't Algonquians or Europeans, but someone else. Their identity has been a mystery...until now.

The Lost History of North America, part 3: Empires north of Mexico?
For many Americans, the Rio Grande separates, not just two modern countries, but two entirely different worlds of Native American peoples. I grew up seeing a fundamental disconnect: How could the Sioux, Cheyenne, Choctaw, Shoshoni, and so many other tribes in what is now the USA have had any connection to the peoples of Mesoamerica—nations like the Aztecs, Mayans, Olmecs, and others? Their art styles, architecture, and cultures seemed so different. Or were they? Tune in to discover some shocking links between the two sides of the divide, and to learn about the biggest empire (that no one’s heard of) north of the Rio Grande.

Traced (part 16): Critics accidentally confirm central thesis
In response to "Traced: Human DNA's Big Surprise," critics have committed a massive unforced error. In doing so, they have also inadvertently validated the biggest conclusion of the book: The roles have now been completely reversed in the creation/evolution debate.
