Show Notes

Art Bell welcomes Richard C. Hoagland to discuss the stunning discovery of a perfectly preserved woolly mammoth frozen in Siberian ice. They examine the scientific possibilities of cloning the ancient creature using DNA extraction and elephant surrogacy, while weighing the risks of releasing dormant pathogens trapped in the permafrost for thousands of years.

The conversation shifts to the broader implications of ancient history, touching on the Piri Reis map as evidence of advanced pre-ice age civilizations and the mysterious glyphs of Abydos. Hoagland connects these threads to suggest humanity may not be the first advanced civilization on Earth, and that the mammoth discovery offers a window into a forgotten era.

Art and Hoagland also address President Clinton's increasingly erratic behavior, including an unusual solo golf outing in the rain and repeated remarks about wanting a third term. They explore whether these oddities signal foreknowledge of a coming event, and Hoagland appeals to listeners with insider knowledge to come forward with information about what may be planned for November 1999.
