As always, John Hawks delivers. He is the preeminent Paleoanthropologist of our time.
Not a scientist here but...I think I understand a lot more than I did 2 hours ago. Thank you, Dr. Hawks. I appreciate your ability to explain this very complex topic in ways non-scientists can understand and learn from.
Marvelous in-depth conversation. Data rich and nicely assimilable. Great production. Thanks to all.

Thank you! mindandmatter.substack.com/archive?sort=top
Excellent interview!
This was a great discussion.
As always, John Hawks delivers. He, IMO, is the PREMIERE anthropologist alive today.
@35:30 For example, look at the shape of the head of Nikolay Valuev the Russian boxer, it looks pretty Neanderthal/Denisovan to me
Have genomics buddy doing most advanced work, with many patents. He says idea of "species" along with other phenotype/non-genomic-based ideas - is inaccurate and an obstacle to new knowledge. 19th century ideas. We know alot more about the genome now.
❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
QUESTION: Are the modern day Africans part of the bottleneck at -70000kyrs? That has been my understanding until now...
Lee Berger did some excellent work. Unfortunately he let fame get to his head and he stopped doing real science and has now discredited himself. It’s sad to see.
