Join us as we explore the Silurian Hypothesis - a fascinating scientific thought experiment that asks: if an industrial civilization existed on Earth millions of years before humans, would we be able to detect it?

In this episode, we present "The Corporation vs the Silurians" - a tale of what happens when ancient reptilians encounter modern corporate culture and find mandatory trust falls more terrifying than extinction. We then dive into the real science behind the hypothesis, formulated by astrophysicist Adam Frank and NASA climate scientist Gavin Schmidt.

Discover why the Silurian Hypothesis isn't about finding lizard people, but about gaining perspective on our own civilization's transience and impact. Whether you're a geology enthusiast, science fiction fan, or just wondering how long that passive-aggressive break room note will last in the geological record, this episode offers both scientific rigor and existential humor.

Remember: in the multiverse of deep time, every civilization eventually becomes nothing more than an anomalous chemical signature - but that doesn't mean your quarterly reports aren't important... for now.
