I liked the JRE episode with Jimmy Corsetti. He thinks he found the traces of Atlantis in west Africa.

It was an entertaining episode to listen to, not being a scholar, it's hard to know if he's right or not.

Here's a clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o_R1zoY9kWs

Not having listened to it, I'd guess he's referring to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richat_Structure, a very large circular rock structure in Africa. And also one where the archaeological evidence shows nothing more than periodic visitation by nomadic peoples, nothing like the supposed state society Atlantis would have been.

If you can't imagine a green Sahara, can you imagine a rich Civilization living there?

The transition is hard to believe, yet has happened multiple times

The Richat Structure is the fool's Atlantis. It's just a load of circles guys, that doesn't make it Atlantis.

Atlantis was in Tunisia: https://medcraveonline.com/IJH/IJH-05-00275.pdf

Was it about the Eye of the Sahara? That is quite the interesting geological feature.

Jimmy has yet to utter a sensible word.

At 10:45: Somebody who jumps from “A city that was busy all day, all night” to “it must be millions of people like New York” can only be described as daft.

There is scholarly work on Atlantis. And this clown mentions none of it.
