Let’s start at the very beginning for it is a great place to start…

Ah, the burning question that lingers in the minds of our eager listeners: Who is the enigmatic protagonist of “Enki: Tales from the Past”? Allow me to shed light on the captivating figure that lies at the heart of our immersive narrative.
In my exploration of the Ancient Aliens theories, turning our gaze to the ancient Sumerian texts, fascinating character emerge: Enki, Ninki, Enlil and so on.
According to these age-old accounts, Enki was no ordinary being. He was a prominent figure, often referred to as Prince Ea, hailing from a distant planet known as Nibiru. As the story goes, Enki and his fellow inhabitants of Nibiru embarked on an extraordinary mission to Earth, which they called Ki. Their purpose? To extract a precious subproduct of gold that would aid in the restoration of their own home planet’s atmosphere stability. Yes, you heard that right: gold played a pivotal role in their grand cosmic endeavor.

Picture it: Enki, a celestial prince, venturing across the vastness of space, driven by a mission to save his home and his people. But what sets Enki apart from mere mortals is not just his extraterrestrial origin; it is the depth of his character, the intricacies of his motivations, and the challenges he faces along the way.
In “Enki: Tales from the Past,” we delve into the enigmatic persona of Enki, exploring his struggles, his triumphs, and the sacrifices he makes in pursuit of his noble goal. Through immersive storytelling and meticulous sound design, we bring you closer to this captivating figure, unravelling the layers of his persona and illuminating the mysteries that surround him.

Ah, the intricate tapestry of love and longing weaves its way into the heart of our narrative. Enter Ninki, a captivating figure whose presence adds a layer of passion and complexity to the cosmic saga of the podcast. A princess consort in her own right, joins Enki on his mission to Earth, assuming the esteemed role of chief scientist and geneticist. As the story unfolds, we find ourselves drawn into a clandestine affair that blossoms between Enki and Ninki, against the backdrop of their entangled familial ties.
Their love, shrouded in secrecy and forbidden by the constraints of their circumstances, becomes a poignant thread that runs through the fabric of our narrative. It is a love that transcends the boundaries of duty and loyalty, reaching deep into the realms of the heart.
As Enki and Ninki navigate the complexities of their intertwined destinies, we are drawn into a story that explores not only the depths of their personal love but also the profound questions of loyalty, devotion, and the sacrifices we are willing to make for those we hold dear.

Uh oh, the stage is set for a tale of familial rivalry and cosmic power struggles!
Here’s Enlil, the brother of Enki and the promised groom to Ninki, possesses an undeniable allure that captivates both imagination and rage. According to the ancient Sumerian texts, Enlil holds a position of great importance, one that will shape the course of humanity itself as we venture forth into a second season. Enlil’s presence looms large, as he becomes a catalyst for dramatic tension, a figure driven by his own motives and wielding a power that can alter the course of history.
But remember, dear listeners, that in the realm of storytelling and history itself, nothing is as it seems. As we explore the multifaceted character of Enlil, we shall uncover layers of complexity and nuance that blur the lines between good and evil. For in the vast expanse of this cosmic tale, even the most charismatic figures may carry hidden depths and motivations that defy easy categorization.

Yes – the perennial question that lingers on the lips of our curious and most informed audience: Why do I propose that the Anunna people arrived over 13,000 years ago instead of the commonly expected and inflated date of 450,000 years? Buckle up, my fellow truth-seekers, for we are about to venture into the fascinating realm of time perception and dilation.

You see, when it comes to a race as ancient and enigmatic as the Anunnaki, their understanding and measurement of time differ vastly from our own. Imagine for a moment that you are an extraterrestrial being, traversing the vast cosmos, and finally, after eons of exploration, you find yourself on a new planet. Everything you know, everything you’ve experienced, suddenly becomes subject to the new environment and the rules it governs.

As the Anunna people established themselves on our planet, they were faced with the daunting task of reconfiguring their chronology methods to align with Earth’s unique temporal rhythms. It’s like starting from scratch, my friends, wiping the slate clean and embarking on a new journey of timekeeping.
Now, let’s consider the ancient Sumerian texts, which often mention these seemingly astronomical numbers when referring to the Anunna and their presence on Earth. While these large counting numbers may initially boggle the mind, it is crucial to place these events within the context that truly fits.

As our story unfolds throughout “Enki: Tales from the Past,” our intrepid listeners will come to discover that the construction of the renowned pyramids, often attributed to the Egyptians, actually finds its roots in a former colonization process by the Lyran race. Yes, dear audience, the pyramids stand as a testament to a far more complex tapestry of extraterrestrial influence and historical interweaving. The layers of history and cosmic intervention run deep, my friends, and through the immersive narrative of our podcast, we peel back those layers, inviting you to explore the intricate nuances of time, perception, and the hidden truths that lie just beyond the veil of conventional understanding.

It seems you’ve stumbled upon a question that has perplexed many, my friends. Why, indeed, do we not find a single primitive cave drawing depicting the moon? And why do the ancient Greek philosophers allude to the existence of “proto-selenian” beings predating our celestial neighbor? Allow me to shed some light on this captivating theory that has left us all contemplating the moon’s role in our ancient history. Picture this: a smaller moon, exerting a gentle influence over Earth, creating an environment where colossal creatures could thrive. An intriguing notion, isn’t it?

According to one fascinating hypothesis, the moon we know today was once smaller and held a harmonious relationship with our planet. Its gravitational force, milder than it is now, facilitated the existence of immense creatures that roamed the Earth. Imagine a world where giants roamed freely, like dinossaurs, unencumbered by the limitations we find in our current reality.
The ancient Sumerians, those ingenious pioneers of civilization, were the first to mention the grandeur of the moon. And it is from this fertile ground that we escalate our tale to propose a daring concept – that the moon itself is not a natural celestial body, but rather an artificially created satellite, designed to aid our planet and serve as a base of operations for the Igiggi and Anunna people.

There are a lot more questions to be answered, but has a rule of thumb I always try to keep episodes small and light.

Dear listeners, your thirst for knowledge and anticipation for the next season of “Enki: Tales from the Past” is truly infectious. I can assure you that what lies ahead is nothing short of extraordinary, a journey that will shatter the boundaries of what you thought you knew about our ancient past.
