  2. 2:04:16 that's what I say too

    It's insanity to kill off or destroy the thing keeping you alive.
    The earth is like a living thing. It's pretty dumb of people to trash it and blindly kill.

    Like humanity is a suicidal hive mind.

  3. I'm glad I've never been bitten by crocodile or alligator or anything like that.
    I had a friend that did… We were swimming in gator infested waters at night… She almost lost a toe… It was barely hanging on. If we weren't drunk, she would have felt it more.

  4. There's microbes on other planets in our own solar system…..
    There's too many planets residing within habitable zones in there respective solar systems for there to be no life anywhere.

  5. Absolutely beautiful podcast! I am actually annoyed because I had decided I don’t follow Lex anymore and now I am like darn! He had to put out the best one ever, so annoying of him to go and be cool like that LOL. Loved the convo so much and got the Audible of Rosolie’s Madre de Dios right away. Fantastic end of my week.

  6. Started at the anaconda timestamp. Love the storytelling ❤

    "A bunch of people with machine guns (and no reinforcement) surely isn't much for some special ops and well placed bombs. If they really wanted to keep the 💩y gold mining technique from destroying the area, it could be done. 😙😙

  7. The best,thanks gentlemen. NYC, dislexia, yeh me too, so I lost myself in National Geo magazines. Just pure joy for me listening to this discussion/interview. My heart has broken many times seeing documentaries and knowing how the Amazon is being destroyed.Lex, now I have an Easter gift to post to friends and family.
