Paleontology in Georgia, Global Warming Cycles and Ancient Lushness

A report on a 1.8 million-year-old humanoid settlement in the country of Georgia.

The hosts use this as evidence that the Earth has undergone significant natural warming and cooling cycles long before human industrial activity, challenging the "global warming" narrative.
