About This Show

When it comes to unexplained phenomena, it is just that. Unexplained. We try to approach this from as many different ways as possible, and to throw out the assumptions that have driven research for a very long time. These strange experiences people have, no matter what you want to label or catagorize them as, are real in some way. They have been reported throughout history and across cultures. If nothing else, they are a very Human experience. None of the theories we have may even come close to divining what we are actually experiencing, if they did, we would have some answers. We do not know what Reality is, what life or death are, or truly why we are here. We do know that our senses filter much out, and our memories do not work like we think they do. New approaches are needed if we are ever to make any progress at all in understanding what we are interacting with. Some of that comes from understanding ourselves, and some of that comes from having a truly open mind in confronting those things that defy explanation. We need new eyes, perspectives, and better questions. That is the goal of Where Did the Road Go? To go places that have not been tread before, and explore new things from new angles. To leave the well worn road, and wander...

The Darwin Conspiracy by Roy Davies (2008)

The Darwin Conspiracy; Origins of a Scientific Crime is a eye opening read. First of all, this book has never officially been available on Amazon. You can, however, download a free copy from this site under the free book section, courtesy of the author, Roy Davies. He also has hard copies he is willing to sell at cost if anyone wants one, contact us, and we will get you in touch with him. Now to the book! This is a thorough exploration of where Darwin's ideas really came from. Roy, who had originally created a BBC documentary on Darwin, was told he got the story wrong. He then looked into this assertion, and found that, indeed, there was a good deal of evidence that Darwin stole his work from others, particularly Alfred Wallace. One of the keys to this, comes down to when certain letters arrived to Darwin from Wallace. Roy traces everything available to discover when these letters should have arrived vs when Darwin says they did. The evidence does not support Darwin's case. This is a book that needs to be read. Roy makes a solid case that Wallace was robbed by Darwin and his friends, and that Darwin was not the man most people today think he is. For that matter, he is not the man Roy thought he was when he did the documentary on him.

Roy Davies on The Darwin Conspiracy - October 4, 2014

 

 
 

Roy Davies joins us to talk about his book The Darwin Conspiracy: Origins of a Scientific Crime. Did Charles Darwin really come up with the theory of evolution? Some say he stole the idea from others, but is there proof? And to what degree? Roy Davies does a fantastic job in this book of fleshing out what really happened in those days and revealing who really discovered what. It's a fascinating book, and will be an equaling fascinating conversation!
In nearly 30 years at the BBC, Roy Davies wrote, produced and directed many acclaimed documentaries for the archaeology and history series Chronicle and was for seven years Series Editor of Timewatch. He specialized in ground-breaking investigative and revisionist documentaries which challenged and re-examined popular historical beliefs among which were stories about the discovery of the tomb of Philip of Macedon and the row between Sir Arthur Evans and Professor Alan Wace over the origins of the Minoan civilization in Crete. Roy is also the author of Nautilus: Story of Man under the Sea, and was Executive Producer of the five-part BBC series of the same name which revealed the dangers of submarines since Napoleonic times and stories of the men who served in them. He was with Thor Heyerdahl when he burnt his reed boat off an island in the Red Sea in 1978, produced the programme which covered the raising of the Mary Rose off Southsea Castle in 1982 and covered the trial of O.J. Simpson for the BBC in 1995.
The book is out of print. If you want a copy of it, you can e-mail Roy directly, as he does have some copies left and he is willing to sell them at the original cost of the book. His email is TroyDavies at AOL. You can figure it out from there. If you can't, contact us and we will get you in touch. We will likely also be making the ebook available soon!

The Darwin Conspiracy by Roy Davies

When I had Roy Davies as a guest on the show, we talked about the unavailability of his 2008 book on Darwin which we were talking about. An excellent book, but it sells for a ridiculous amount online. Roy then offered to sell the copies he had left at cost, and that deal is likely still available if you want a physical copy. Contact us, and I will get you in contact with Roy. However, Roy is more than happy to make available the PDF version of his book. So, here you have it, Download and enjoy.
