    USA Today bestselling author, Dragon nominee, and award-winning
    journalist, Jeffery H. Haskell, lives and breathes writing. A passion of his from
    a young age, he can’t remember a time when he wasn’t telling stories. As a
    full-time author, he now pursues his life’s calling with the help of his amazing
    family. The only thing he likes as much as spending time with this family,
    writing, and speaking about writing, is helping other authors be successful. He
    will continue to write until he dies, possibly longer if allowed. More

    Jeff is also a veteran and wanted to write military science fiction. The problem was he wasn't good at it. Turns out he had a disability and once he searched for coping mechanisms, the words tuned good.

    We discuss his story, his influences. he favorite properties. We have a few disagreements. We also go over some of the science aspects of his works. The story will end up as a 12 book series.

  • Garden of Thought E.362 Up The Nile, Down through Time

    Garden of Thought E.362 Up The Nile, Down through Time
    Mar 24 2026
    Dr. Stuart Tyson Smith of UCSB joins us to discuss the archeology, science and related aspects of Kush and neighboring regions that existed alongside ancient Egypt and whose histories are intertwined. This is a good companion show to the recent episode with Mogg Morgan.

    We confirmed where and what is Kush, Nubia, Punt, and some new names. Such as Yam. We settle the grography. We challenge the stereotypes of skin color homogeneity and words like "Kemet" and titles such as "Black Pharoahs".

    We touch on some things like Sheba and Solomon and Exodus. But our main focus is Kush and the Kushites. There's even talk of a dancing pygmy as part of a historical record.

    I also spend a minute or two burying Jimmy T.

  • Garden of Thought E.361 Siberia, Beringia and Beyond

    Garden of Thought E.361 Siberia, Beringia and Beyond
    Mar 15 2026
    We are graced once more by Prof. Jon F. White of Crecganford to discuss the mythological stories of Siberia, that made their way into America. We started with some Indo European basics and I got us off track almost immediately. However, we ventured back into the oldest stories including the Cosmic Hunt (not The Wild Hunt) and the Earth Diver.

    Somewhere along the line I scratched an itch about Cain and Abel being the Indo European twins of husnabdry v pastoralist; or founder and sacrificer.

    I didn't ask - yet - about Jacob wrestling with El and Gilgamesh and Enkidu. Maybe next time.

    Constellations came up. But which constellations. They're not the same now as they were then. But some are.

    Linguistics and story tracing has beaten genetics, but genetics and other science testing has supported what the Humanities already discovered. Now you can discover it too.

    Garden of Thought E.359 Emphasis on Ephesus
    Mar 7 2026
    Bernie Taylor of beforeorion.com rejoins the show to discuss Gobekle Tepe and Ephesus. But, as always with Taylor, he’s got a swerve. We’re talking Avionoids, whether Artemis was the goddess at “the Temple of Artemis”, what is Anatolia, and more. We talk lions, palm dates, Amazons, Herculean murders, hunter gatherers to agriculturalists, and Hittites! That’s just a sampling. Plenty of zodiac and astronomy too.

    Garden of Thought E.357 Physics and the Pentateuch
    Feb 28 2026
    Welcome back Rex Bundy. He tells his journey of enlightenment and the purposes of his writings. What could be called Bundyism, is a merger of science and religion. We discuss some specific quantum physics reflected in the Pentateuch, or the 5 Books of Moses. Please enjoy this universal conversation brought down to ground level by your humble straw person (me).

    GoT Presents A Tale from the Territories - AJ CAZANA - A Country Gentleman
    Feb 25 2026
    The NWA's AJ Cazana joins me to discuss elections. THE NWA Presidency of course. What did you think? We discuss free and fair elections. how nepotism is a lie, how his father won a free and fair election - easily, and how many ways AJ is over his brother.

    We also discuss some aspects of the potential new podcast effort between he and Silas Mason. This conversation goes far and wide but sticks tomy core topics of wrestling kayfabe, breaking a little kayfabe, and talking about the alternative parts of the world.

    There's a fair amount of confusion over the corner store clerk's name and why Hunter Drake is always around.A few shout outs to Aron Stephens may have happened.
