Dan Richards is a Pointless Troll

Show Notes

As many of you have noticed, I've taken to adding pseudoarcheology charlatans to my list of grifting frauds to debunk. I started out with their godfather, Graham Hancock. That pissed off all of his loser acolytes something awful, prompting one of them, Dan Richards, to make a pathetic response video. So I decided to respond back and bury his dumb face even more than I already have. Apart from crapping on his response video, I also decided to comment on his most recent video on Egyptology, where he shows the world precisely how brainless he is. Strap in, the level of stupidity here will shock even regular viewers of my channel.The Great Big Pseudoarcheology Debunk: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JK4Fo6m9C9MWatch all my Pseudoarcheology Debunks: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePseudoarchCheck out Flint Dibble's channel: https://www.youtube.com/@FlintDibbleCheck out Milo Rossi's channel: https://www.youtube.com/@miniminuteman773Bonani 2001 radiocarbon paper: https://journals.uair.arizona.edu/index.php/radiocarbon/article/viewFile/3874/3299Additional commentary: https://archive.archaeology.org/9909/abstracts/pyramids.html2009 recalibration paper: https://www.cambridge.org/core/services/aop-cambridge-core/content/view/70C1DD44D297BC29CD82A59692A235A1/S0033822200034111a.pdf/reanalysis-of-the-chronological-discrepancies-obtained-by-the-old-and-middle-kingdom-monuments-project.pdfResponse to Sweatman's Göbekli Tepe nonsense: https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/269292938.pdfWatch my other debunks/debates/discussions: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveDebunkEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Learn more about your ad choices.

With the general overview of the birds complete, let's take a look at their body systems. There are 11 in total. Some of these are highly modified for flight, like the respiratory and circulatory systems, as well as skeletal system.

Is there anything more aesthetically pleasing than a perfect circle? It may seem like the king of shapes, but it's also arguably the simplest. Define a central point and a radius, and you've got a circle. What else can we say about circles?

There's a guy that's supposed to be like an Indiana Jones type dude, there's a kid who's supposed to be like Marty McFly and the Doc combined into one character, and there's a robot dinosaur who eats popcorn and pukes and does impressions. Nobody could write parody like this if they tried. The crappy dialogue and acting, the worst editing imaginable, and the most laughable attempt at indoctrinating children ever conjured by a human mind.

A very basic thing in any language is learning how to count. You will use the numbers from one through ten constantly! When you tell time, when you interact with people at the market, or around town, you name it. So these first few must be memorized! But from there, it becomes quite simple to build out any other number imaginable, so let's hit all the basic number-related vocabulary right now!Script by Patrizia Farina, Professor of Italian at Western Connecticut State University and Purchase College.Watch the whole Italian playlist: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveItalianAmerican History Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveAmericanHistoryClassical Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics1Modern Physics Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDavePhysics2General Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveGenChemOrganic Chemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveOrgChemBiochemistry Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBiochemBiology Tutorials: http://bit.ly/ProfDaveBioEMAIL► [email protected]► http://patreon.com/ProfessorDaveExplainsCheck out "Is This Wi-Fi Organic?", my book on disarming pseudoscience!Amazon: https://amzn.to/2HtNpVHBookshop: https://bit.ly/39cKADMBarnes and Noble: https://bit.ly/3pUjmrn Book Depository: http://bit.ly/3aOVDlT Learn more about your ad choices.
