Thank you for having me Danny! I had a blast!

[katsmaintanklive]

Bringing back extinct animals was more a mention than topic of discussion in this one

[dangerclose]

I just want to say, that if they ever remake the original Jaws movie I think it would be a mistake to not cast Forrest Galante as Matt Hooper the marine biologist.

Forest is the kind of guy you can sit and listen to for weeks on end. ✨The type of guy you want around the campfire every night. What a huge inspiration to anyone. Just finished six hours of ancient pyramid knowledge with Christopher. Keep up the great work.👋🏼🤠👍

[lukecaverns]

So glad to get you two together. The chemistry was great. Been looking forward to this for weeks.

[JAv-tiuq]

Great episode, guys! As a scuba, diver and spear fisherman, from Southern California, I especially appreciated the conversation.

[peterlarkin]

The lightning strike was behind him. He got shocked via the water. He's very lucky.

[TopseCret_]

I love how this guy is never afraid or too proud to say “I don’t know”.

[ingy]

never heard of either these two guys. never seen this channel. but i watched this entire podcast and i could watch them talk all day

[dylanwicklund]

You were not hit by a lightning, but you were close enough that it arked and hit you. I've had the same thing happen. A few times I'm kind of surprised you didn't feel the energy in the air. That usually comes right before a lightning strike. Because every time I feel that I get the hell out of that area.

[nathanbowler]

It give me great comfort to know that once Joe Rogan had passed away or stepped down from podcasting that Danny will be right there to step in and take that place. He’s the only man out there now that’s matching rogan.

[thomaswayne]

Having been electrified many times i can tell you its normal to taste metal for a little bit. But not for days. Might need to check that out.

[Spicy]

I think Forest needs to talk to Randell Carlson about the mass extinction.

[badsabre]

Forrest talking about visiting Brian Barczyk made me think about that goodbye video he posted the other day.😢 That was very heart wrenching.

[maxwellkrigbaum]

The lightning struck a little ways behind him. It obviously hit close enough to where the River in that whole area conducted electricity. Though A direct hit while standing in that water would have literally fried him. He’s super lucky! Great podcast!

[eoachan]

You should encourage certain guests to look at CURRENT research about what happened 12, 900 years ago during the Taurid Meteor Swarm impacts. Most extinct megafauna are gone due to the combination of the impacts(fires, shock waves, floods, burned food supplies), NOT human hunting. hominids and our sort of human coexisted with megafauna for hundreds of thousands of years and never killed them off ;)

Of course, warming climates post glacial melting also impacted the tundra, as well as the absence of the mammoths.

[billyhighfill]

Deck hands!?!?! BRO!!! Those videos first got me started in your channel. The way you presented these salt dogs is the see is award winning. The boat scene where he is listening to music and fog is going everywhere and lasers are shooting through, I felt the scene, I truly felt like I was there. You have a gift.

[skilledbuilduk]

I've been with my wife 21 years and my megalodong is feeling like a fossil these days.

[emixmim]

Always a pleasure seeing Forrest! No updates on his quest for the giant sloth in Peru?
