He debated pseudoarcheologist Graham Hancock on the Joe Rogan Experience, and he produces an archeology focused YouTube chanel.[1][2][3][4]

He received his PhD in 2017 from University of Cincinnati, where his dissertation "Politika Zoa: Animals and Social Change in Ancient Greece" was supervised by Kathleen Lynch.[5]
Archaeological work
[edit]His research touches on topics of urbanism, climate change, religious ritual, and everyday life. His current project, ZOOCRETE: The Zooarchaeology of Historical Crete: A Multiscalar Approach to Animals in Ancient Greece, combines archaeological, textual, and biomolecular evidence for the human management and consumption of animals.

Fieldwork
[edit]Debating Graham Hancock
[edit]In 2024, the then little known Dibble appeared on the Joe Rogan Experience opposite popular promotor of the pseudo archeological theory that there once existed an advanced Ice Age civilization that was destroyed in a global cataclysm, as popularized on Ancient Apocalypse, a 2022 documentary series produced by Netflix. The podcast episode lasted for four and a half hours. Flint wore his trademark fedora.
