Ep 2: The Glint of Gold

Carter’s finally made it inside Tut's tomb and is now surrounded by more riches than he could possibly dream of. Golden statues, opulent jewlery, entire chariots. There’s even the pharaoh’s underwear! So, why is he so obsessed with flowers? Dr. Salima Ikram, distinguished professor of Egyptology at the American University in Cairo, joins returning guests Tom Hardwick and Kat Havens to dish the dirt on all the treasures inside Tut’s tomb as well as the complicated condition of the Boy King’s mummy. Plus, Exhibits-Projects Director Dustin Newcomb takes us inside HMNS’ recreation of the pharaoh’s crypt.

En fantastisk app med et enormt stort udvalg af spændende podcasts. Podimo formår virkelig at lave godt indhold, der takler de lidt mere svære emner. At der så også er lydbøger oveni til en billig pris, gør at det er blevet min favorit app.

Rigtig god tjeneste med gode eksklusive podcasts og derudover et kæmpe udvalg af podcasts og lydbøger. Kan varmt anbefales, om ikke andet så udelukkende pga Dårligdommerne, Klovn podcast, Hakkedrengene og Han duo 😁 👍
Podimo er blevet uundværlig! Til lange bilture, hverdagen, rengøringen og i det hele taget, når man trænger til lidt adspredelse.
