In this compelling clip from the Joe Rogan Experience, security specialist Ed Calderon shares a shocking story illustrating the brutal aspects of ancient Mexican history. He recounts a tale where a group was fed a stew called pozole, only to be told afterward that they had just consumed their own people.

This revelation prompts Joe Rogan to reflect on the strange, confusing, and storied history of Mexico. The conversation delves into historical mysteries, such as the discovery of Teotihuacan, the ancient city of the gods, which was found abandoned by the Aztecs themselves. They discuss how the Aztecs named the site, despite not knowing who built it.

The dialogue also explores the origins of the Spanish language in Mexico, clarifying that it was not a native tongue but was adopted after the conquest by the Spaniards. Ed Calderon further examines the complexities of Mexican identity, describing it as a "mixed culture" that was, in some ways, "taught to hate itself." He points out the nuanced racial dynamics, noting that the conquerors' boats already had "brown people" on them, contributing to a complex cultural and ethnic blend that carries historical tensions within itself. This conversation offers a raw look into the darker, lesser-known chapters of Mexican history and the lasting impact on its cultural psyche.
