About this episode
It’s one of history's most enduring mysteries: the lost civilization of Atlantis. From a 19th century congressman who convinced Charles Darwin it was real, to psychic Edgar Casey predicting the discovery of an underwater stone road in the Bahamas decades before divers actually found it, to a 25-mile-wide circular formation in the Sahara that matches Plato's description almost exactly — the rabbit hole goes deep. Really deep. Like, possibly-under-Antarctica deep.
We through the major theories: a pre-Ice Age global civilization wiped out by a comet, crystal-powered technology misused by the morally corrupt, a misremembered volcanic catastrophe, and of course, aliens setting up a base of operations on a nice island before conveniently flooding the evidence.
