EP: 413 Nephilim In The Ozarks with Nicholas Daigle *members only trailer

Nicholas Daigle joins the show to talk about his book Genesis 6 and the Ozarks and the giant rabbit hole he fell into right in his own backyard. What started as a deep read through Genesis turned into a full-blown investigation into old newspaper accounts of seven-foot skeletons, spoke-wheel burials, and out-of-place Aztec pottery found in Ozark caves, all within 30 miles of his front door. Nick walks us through the finds of Sterling Newberry, a missionary Baptist pastor and amateur archaeologist who uncovered some seriously strange artifacts in the Springfield area in the 1930s, including burial mounds with sacrificial bowls, caves with signs of cannibalism, and a solstice alignment connecting a cave and a burial site. Then there's the story of Harry Starlight, an Osage chief who showed up at Newberry's door wanting a bear idol and offering to introduce him to the little people through a fire ritual. Newberry shut it down. The bones? Sent to the Smithsonian. The pottery? Gone. The mounds? Kids are jumping bikes off them. Welcome to the Ozarks and the hidden history of giants in the land.
