Video Round-up and the Foxhole
There is so much excellent content coming out from Cosmic Summit 2024 speakers it is hard to keep up. See below for some wonderful new work from these Tusk buddies — and my new podcast...

Cosmic Summit speaker videos
With the Cosmic Summit close to a month away, I thought it would be fun to post a bit about a speaker or two. Dr. Andrew MT Moore and Ben van Kerkwyk are first up....
Special Event: Randall Carlson Halloween video lecture
Carlson's video lecture on the origin of global Death Festivals available tomorrow
Repost: CRG on TV
Program note: My apologies to subscribers who received my email last night, but were unable to see the post later today. I migrated the Tusk this morning to a new server and my most recent...
Tusk Buddies
It's summer and videos are certainly in order for the Tusk. Here's a great one.

Tusk at Sedona Conference
The Tusk is back from a wonderful four-night stay in Sedona, Arizona, where I gave a presentation on the Younger Dryas Impact. Wordviewz Media and HowTube’s conference was another milestone on my own journey from...
In praise of intellectual honesty
A little blue bird tweeted this weekend that the Younger Dryas Impact was off her radar since she was “not aware of widespread community acceptance of the proposal.” I’m not aware of any books on...
Hear! Hear!
Not long ago before the holiday I asked my friend Chandra Wickramasinghe to take a stab at the first video discussion on the Tusk. We were patient with each other, and each requested a delay...
Younger Dryas Impacts gain MORE global attention
Tusk travel buddy from the Egypt 2020 Expedition, Jimmy Corsetti of Bright Insight, appeared last week on The Joe Rogan Experience, the most popular conversation on planet earth. The Younger Dryas Impact was a frequent...
Art imitates Tusk
The cruel irony of this welcome movie should be apparent to Tusk regulars. A satirical blockbuster uses an impending comet impact as a plot device to communicate a deeper message to the planet that no one listens to scientists who....warn us of climate change. The director...
Ancient Traumas, Modern Hints
As the Taurid meteor season wanes on the approach of Thanksgiving, I thought it was relevant (and economical) to share a couple of recent videos which present the Taurid phenomena from different, but mutually informative contexts. The first is a ‘live shot,’ and the second is...
Teaching the Younger Dryas Impact
The Tusk has characteristically hit a summer communication drought. But that doesn't mean we can't toss up a YouTube here and there from the coast. It's welcome to see college courses fully integrating the Younger Dryas Impact into their thinking about the Younger Dryas and...
Sweatman nails it
Indefatigable genius and digital friend of the Tusk, Dr. Martin Sweatman, authored a surprise blockbuster this week. Below is a peer-reviewed and fully accepted pre-online synthesis overview of the Younger Dryas Impact controversy since the very first paper in 2007. 'The...
PBS NOVA on the Younger Dryas Impact
It seems like a lazy cheat to post YouTube videos two weeks in a row, instead of writing in-depth subject articles on the Tusk. But who has the time for that? And anyway the video below is a particularly special communication. It is special because WGBHPBS no longer stream...

Tusk and UnchartedX join The Randall Carlson Podcast
Free speech podcasting is an awesome thing. Before our digital overlords take podcasting from us, the Tusk is going to enjoy it as much as possible as a consumer and a guest. Joining geo-bear and catastrophe sherpa Randall Carlson on his show this week was particularly fun.
Funny stuff
This is a priceless video spoof concerning the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis. And surprisingly, it is directed at the most timely part of the actual debate — the most recent attack on the hypothesis from...
Egypt Unplugged
The only thing more fun than touring Egypt top to bottom is making the trip with creative people that record the adventure and share it with the world. The Tusk is thrilled to have the memories and interpretations of our wonderful expedition out there to enjoy for years to...
martin-sweatman-younger-dryas-2
What would the planet do without the tireless? I love how our subject draws in gifted obsessives from around the world. One example is Marc Young in Australia who compiled The Bib last year. Soon...
New kid
It is fun to see curious and smart people across the planet learn of our theory, and add content to the internet that allows rational consideration of the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis. In a well...
halloween-taurid-meteor-randall-carlson
Randall Carlson does a great job here explaining a really creepy but profound aspect of the Younger Dryas Impact Hypothesis. Halloween, like death festivals worldwide in late Octoberearly November, reflects the trauma inflicted by the...
martin-sweatman-younger-dryas
Martin Sweatman, when not writing a profound book, is building quite a nice catalog of videos concerning the YDIH and related subjects. This one is particularly welcome and represents the best walk-though of the debate,...
UnchartedX
Tusk video from Tall el-Hammam Ben at UnchartedX continues to produce excellent videos concerning the Younger Dryas Cataclysm and related subjects. Just recently he posted this superbly produced review of religious and mythical information and...
Cuba popped by meteor
The Tusk doesn’t generally report on current impact phenomena, and focuses instead on past impacts. But it never hurts to show some cool videos on a blog. First is from terrified residents of Vianales, Cuba...
Oldie but goodie
11:05 No crater? 48:23 Jim Kennett in a wonderful moment During a fleeting period at the end of the last decade, a decade ago, the YDIH was a burgeoning mainstream topic. So popular in fact that the...
Bright Insight
Jimmy at Bright Insight has posted a masterpiece of science and speculation concerning the YDIH. How do these guys do this? I would find it very, very difficult to prepare all this info and share...
TUSK TV
The History Channel episode below and other great videos about our subject are available on the Tusk TV Playlist.
Knock Out
Almost 24 hours later and I am still catching my breath. Last night’s Joe Rogan Experience podcast was pure heaven for the Tusk. As folks might have noted, the world’s most popular interview podcast has...
