Today we’ve invited Fredrik Trusohamn of Digging Up Ancient Aliens to help us review Kon Tiki (2012), the true story of Thor Heyerdahl and his adventure on the Pacific Ocean which proved that Polynesia was settled by explorers from Peru... or did it? In this episode we reveal the dark secrets that movie doesn’t want you to know, and identify what Kon Tiki, Ancient Aliens, and Atlantis all have in common (spoilers: it’s hyperdiffusionism!)
