Jake Castrey (The Improbable Dreamer) joins Flat Earth Dave on Deep Inside The Rabbit Hole for a wide-open conversation about the old world: star forts as a lost power grid, ancient city layouts that look like circuit boards, Turkmenistan's empty white city, Kazakhstan's pyramid, orphan trains, mooring masts on the Empire State Building, flying cruise ships and Tesla's airship, melted castles, and whether Himalayan salt is something stranger than rock.
