His whole premise is that civilizations didn’t exist that long ago (which is his scientific method question). Yet no one disputes that archeologist have found remains of people from 200,000 years ago. That right there debunks his “debunk” show. https://www.npr.org/2022/01/13/1072867405/scientists-determine-age-of-some-of-the-oldest-human-bones#:~:text=Transcript-,Some%20of%20the%20oldest%20human%20remains%20ever%20unearthed%20are%20the,re%20around%20233%2C000%20years%20old https://www.npr.org/2022/01/13/1072867405/scientists-determi....

Of course there were people (or at least very-nearly-human people) 200,000 years ago, and of course there is a very, very long history of humans and not-quite-humans having material culture. Graham Hancock asserts that there was a globe-spanning single culture with advanced technology ~12,000 years ago. That's a big, specific claim! Of course there were people around during the Younger Dryas, Hancock is making a bunch of claims about what people were doing at that time. Milo is saying there wasn't a globe-spanning civilization with a shared culture and advanced technology existing during that period, not that there weren't people (are you perhaps confusing the words "civilian" and "civilization"?) Seriously, keep watching for more than a couple minutes: does he at any point say "of course Ancient Apocalypse isn't real, humans didn't exist back then"? That would be a very short video.
