Language defines us as a species, placing humans head and shoulders above even the most proficient animal communicators. But it also beguiles us with its endless mysteries, allowing us to ponder why different languages emerged, why there isn't simply a single language, how languages change over time and whether that's good or bad, and how languages die out and become extinct.

Story3
हम शेरों जैसे ताक़तवर नहीं हैं, न डॉल्फिन की तरह तैर सकते हैं, और निश्चय ही हमारे पंख भी नहीं हैं! तो फिर हमने इस दुनिया पर राज कैसे किया? इसका जवाब एक ऐसी अजीब कहानी में है, जो शायद ही फिर कभी सुनने को मिले। वह भी एक सच्ची कहानी ! कभी आपके दिमाग़ में यह सवाल पैदा हुआ कि हमने यह मुक़ाम कैसे हासिल किया? हाथियों के शिकार से लेकर स्मार्ट फोन चलाने तक का सफ़र ? आखिर कैसे बने हम.. अजेय? इसके पीछे की सच्चाई यह है कि हमारे पास एक सुपर पावर है।

Story7
A story of defiance and determination by a controversial scientist, this is Lee Berger's own take on finding Homo naledi, an all-new species on the human family tree and one of the greatest discoveries of the 21st century. In 2013, Lee Berger, a National Geographic explorer-in-residence, heard of a cache of bones in a hard-to-reach underground cave in South Africa. He put out a call around the world for petite collaborators - men and women small and adventurous enough to be able to squeeze through eight-inch tunnels to reach a sunless cave forty feet underground. It worked.

Again and again, he wasn't afraid to risk his own life when others' safety was at risk. Nearly all of Hirschfeld's family members were murdered by Nazis; she survived in hiding - and met Heinz again by coincidence after the war was over. They married in 1946. At that time, starting over was difficult. In the judicial service, Drossel witnessed Nazis continuing with their careers....

My hope is that you are as inspired by my guests as I am by how they have responded and navigated their way through, despite the adversity they face. So please ...

The true history of a America at this point in history nearing 2023 - is completely topsy-turvy! Where as just 11 years ago when we found out that the world wasn't ending, the world started to embrace progress and commerce continued to flow. Now it seems almost every week since 2020 began that life is not what it seemed and even more so that things that once believed to be true - were not only lies, but coverups for bigger secrets. In many circles people say the veil is being lifted; in others they say it's the age of Aquarius and that the age of illusion and blind following is gone. Here in ...

Look around. Clearly, we humans are radically different from the other creatures on this planet. But why? Where are the Bronze Age beavers? The Iron Age iguanas? Byron Reese argues that we owe our special status to our ability to imagine the future and recall the past, escaping the perpetual present that all other living creatures are trapped in. Envisioning human history as the development of a societal superorganism he names Agora, Reese shows us how this escape enabled us to share knowledge on an unprecedented scale, and predict—and eventually master—the future.
