We are joined by Marc Young to discuss the Khafre Scans, the credibility of the conclusions from the scan data, and the future of this type of technology if it is viable.
In the second half of the show, we talk about Marc's encounters with fraud in academia, and the problems with the peer review system.
We are going to Peru in October of 2025!! Sign up now and join
