Jacob Ward travels the globe to investigate Decision Science. We imagine our conscious minds make most decisions but in reality we go through much of our lives on 'Autopilot'. And marketers and social media companies rely on it.
The first part offers you the owner’s manual for this autopilot. The second part, 'Weapons of Influence', explores how politicians, social media companies and corporate marketers use big data to hack decision-making system. The third part, 'Us vs. Them', shows how this autopilot biases fuel the nation's divisions and how to overcome them. The last part, 'The Wings of Angels', explores why hacking for good is an important scientific discovery; how people can hack their own minds to improve their lives and change the world for the better.

We offer this captivating full documentary series in a single video, inviting viewers to question everything they think they know about prehistory. Journalist Graham Hancock embarks on a global journey, exploring archaeological sites in search of clues to an advanced civilization that may have thrived thousands of years ago. Hancock presents a bold theory: during the last ice age, a sophisticated society existed but was wiped out by catastrophic meteor impacts roughly 12,000 years ago. He suggests that survivors of this lost civilization shared their knowledge with hunter-gatherers across the globe, sparking the development of early societies.
Hancock visits intriguing sites and natural formations, presenting what he claims is evidence of this forgotten culture. He also asserts that mainstream archaeology may be overlooking—or even concealing—critical findings that support his theory. The series offers a fresh perspective on ancient history, blending mystery, controversy, and the thrill of discovery for those ready to rethink humanity's distant past. All eight episodes are available in a single, continuous video exclusively on our website.
