And the other whack is me for wasting my money on this garbage.

The author is whacked out of his mind advocating a delusion most likely stemming from a joke. There is a 'double whack theory' alright. LOL as I keep listening it's clear his entire theory is based on the moon being made up from Earth material. So after about 3 chapters I reached the limit of what I could trust from this either wilfully fraudulent or ideologically blinded author. They didn't 'lose the technology' of the pendulum for example, keep reading to understand my sarcasm. I found the historical info about the calendaring done by early civilisations interesting and do you know why? Because there are repeatable experiments actually proving their theories. you are okay believing in a theory that parts of the Earth were ejected to the moon, thus why museums like Rijks in AMS found moon rock given to them was just petrified wood, but it's not even possible to consider they were actually taken from Earth because we can't send people past low Earth orbit even in 2019. He says the moon rocks brought back miraculously had the same elements found on Earth and prove it couldn't have originated any further away. This ridiculous theory about the moon existing because Earth collided with another mystery planet 3x the size of Mars is pushed as being somehow more factual than those 'conspiracy theorists' who dispute the landing. I understand this book isn't about the moon landing but a significant amount of the author points of 'evidence' comes from a seriously disputed event. He literally gives only 2 minutes attention to only 2, rather weak, arguments about having sent man to the moon. Wow, what a waste of my time! The author says this book only concern's things that can be provable but blindly gives credibility and allegiance to moon landings and all that has said to have come from them.
