Oh, hey, okay. Can I tell you a secret at the top of the show because I'm going to?

lead us? So there's a lab at Yale University dedicated to researching this hazy history of what our

species has been through. And thisologist is the director of that lab. He's worked on four

continents, published paper spanning half a million years of human history. He got his bachelors

studying physics and anthropology at Cornell College, Niawa, got his masters in PhD in anthropology

from the University of Minnesota and at the Yale Pyrotechnology Lab, also called YPiro. He and his
