  • How’s everyone DUNE? (get it? Like doing. Hah). I just wanted to SPICE up (ok I’ll stop) the channel with a sahara-centric video that definitely has no tie in to recent cinema. Nope. none at all. But seriously, I hope you all enjoy this episode about a place on earth rarely explored.
    Background music, and album, by Dara Hughes! Here is full list of everywhere you can find the album and his other work:
    Spotify - open.spotify.com/album/4Yghnc...
    Bandcamp - uknowhat.bandcamp.com/album/t...
    Apple music: / uknowhat
    Amazon music: music.amazon.co.uk/albums/B0C...
    I usually would recommend wikipedia article to go and check out, but instead, do yourself a favour and check out One Earth’s awesome website:
    www.oneearth.org/bioregions-2...

    9:52 I just recently looked at Sahara in satellite view, it's crazy how alien it looks from close up, kilometers of dried up rivers remind of me of Mars and how it once held water. It somehow looks like a long lost civilization, in a continent that has the highest growth rate on earth.
