What was said
"In 1949, when they first invented radiometric dating, they found a mammoth, the lower leg carbon dated at 15,000 years old, but the flesh and skin was 21,000. Which one's correct?"
Kent Hovind challenged radiometric dating reliability by citing a 1949 mammoth with legs dated to 15,000 years and flesh to 21,000 years. Eamon immediately accused Hovind of lying, stating this referenced two different mammoths and that Hovind had been corrected on this claim multiple times previously. Hovind offered to verify and correct if wrong but maintained no one had shown him this error before.
