Ep. 150: Ancient Egypt, Tryptophan, and Alpaca Escapes
Tuesday, 20 May, 2025
Perhaps the greatest of all early civilizations, few can deny the impact that Ancient Egypt has had on our world even today. But for all we know about this incredible culture, is much more still shrouded in mystery? On the latest episode of 4Thirty, Ben and Pat take a trip up the Nile and back in time as they discuss everything they possibly can about the ancient Egyptians, from the earliest days of Narmer, to the Ptolemaic dynasty, and more, all while postulating some theories on the mysteries still surrounding this incredible culture. The guys also share their usual dose of news this week, talk a little NFL, and share an important Sumo update in the process. Did the conquests of Napoleon in the late 18th century inadvertently result in the translation of Egyptian Hieroglyphics? Did the discovery of King Tut's tomb in the 20th century unleash an ancient curse upon the archaeological team responsible? Could the Great Sphynx really be more than twice as old as conventional dating has previously established? Is a meth-smoking raccoon on the loose in Ohio? For answers to these questions and plenty more, be sure to give the latest episode of 4Thirty in the Morning a listen!
