00:00:00.040 --> 00:00:07.280
We're in our mobile podcast studio.
I e my car tonight. So if

2
00:00:07.320 --> 00:00:12.800
you hear clicking in the background,
it's because I'm in a car that has

3
00:00:12.839 --> 00:00:19.199
issues with heating. So also you
here people yelling people driving by. That's

4
00:00:19.239 --> 00:00:42.679
why they say a life is what
happens to you on the way that you're

5
00:00:42.679 --> 00:00:55.200
trying to get to where you're going. And in this case, life is

6
00:00:57.240 --> 00:01:03.200
a small desk and the basement of
your old house us and talking into your

7
00:01:06.239 --> 00:01:19.000
iPhone with terrible audio quality. It's
meeting people along the way to end up

8
00:01:19.079 --> 00:01:33.239
becoming a large part of what it
is that you're making. So we're going

9
00:01:33.319 --> 00:01:48.959
back to episode number one and then
we're starting all over. See where we've

10
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:53.840
come, where we went through,
and maybe some episodes along the way that

11
00:01:53.879 --> 00:02:06.280
you name catch so join me.
So we hear old episodes and me old

12
00:02:06.359 --> 00:02:19.800
friends for the first time in this
week's Big Foot Society Classic. Welcome back

13
00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:23.560
to another episode of Big Society Classic. In this episode, we are going

14
00:02:23.639 --> 00:02:29.199
to tear the band aid off.
So last time we had our my first

15
00:02:29.199 --> 00:02:35.360
big interview with Seth from Small Town
Monsters June third, twenty nineteen. Now

16
00:02:35.400 --> 00:02:39.759
you might think that I got into
interviews since then, right, did not

17
00:02:39.879 --> 00:02:47.599
happen? I had four, I
would say, rambling episodes until I got

18
00:02:47.599 --> 00:02:54.360
into interviews again. So all through
August and October twenty nineteen, I got

19
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:58.479
into reviews for a while. We
are going to rip the band aid off

20
00:02:58.560 --> 00:03:02.639
and get through all four of those
episodes today and then next week we'll be

21
00:03:02.719 --> 00:03:08.439
getting straight into interviews from here on
out, So it's gonna get pretty wild,

22
00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:14.560
and hope you're here for the ride. One thing before you go,

23
00:03:14.719 --> 00:03:20.159
if you could take a minute to
like and subscribe the podcast wherever you're listening

24
00:03:20.159 --> 00:03:28.560
to and share a favorite episode with
a friend and on your online groups that

25
00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:34.879
really dig bigfoots. Bigfoot Oh my
goodness. All right, well, let's

26
00:03:34.919 --> 00:03:38.360
go ahead and get on with the
show, and thanks for listening. All

27
00:03:38.439 --> 00:03:47.319
right, So here is the account
from Shelley in northern Georgia. I can't

28
00:03:47.360 --> 00:03:52.319
say for sure if our experiences in
Georgia were by a bigfoot for sure,

29
00:03:52.479 --> 00:03:55.560
but it could have been. We
never actually saw anything, but everyone had

30
00:03:55.639 --> 00:04:00.759
some kind of feeling of being watched, especially when we were by the campfire

31
00:04:00.800 --> 00:04:05.199
out front of the cabin right next
to the woods. We were staying in

32
00:04:05.240 --> 00:04:10.080
a cabin on Lake Seed Road in
lake Mont, Georgia. Summer of twenty

33
00:04:10.120 --> 00:04:14.000
sixteen, my in laws rented the
cabin for a fan of vacation. When

34
00:04:14.039 --> 00:04:16.639
we pulled into the parking area out
front of the cabin, we all noticed

35
00:04:16.680 --> 00:04:24.879
a horrible and horrible is in capitals
smell out front and to the side of

36
00:04:25.000 --> 00:04:28.079
the cabin by the creek. That
first night, my kids, who were

37
00:04:28.399 --> 00:04:30.360
fourteen, twelve, and eleven,
knocked on a tree by the creek in

38
00:04:30.519 --> 00:04:33.920
side of the house, and after
the third knock of the tree got two

39
00:04:34.000 --> 00:04:39.480
knocks back a few minutes apart,
but then nothing. My dogs, whom

40
00:04:39.560 --> 00:04:43.720
are not afraid of anything, we're
always near us and woofing on occasion,

41
00:04:44.120 --> 00:04:46.000
but they would not go into the
woods, which is fine with me because

42
00:04:46.040 --> 00:04:51.680
I definitely felt goosebumps and did not
want to retrieve them. They're a large

43
00:04:51.680 --> 00:04:57.079
breed dog, a Newfoundland Shepherd mix
in a bowl mast of medium size and

44
00:04:57.120 --> 00:05:00.199
not easily scared off anyway. That
next morning, around six thirty to seven

45
00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:05.399
am, I stepped out onto the
side porch which faces the creek and heard

46
00:05:05.959 --> 00:05:10.839
splashing in the creek, which is
about twenty five to thirty feet from the

47
00:05:10.879 --> 00:05:13.759
side of the porch, but there
are a lot of bushes and trees,

48
00:05:13.800 --> 00:05:16.199
so I couldn't see the creek or
whatever it was making smacking sounds like two

49
00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:20.759
rocks being smacked together, and it
was walking or throwing big rocks or doing

50
00:05:20.800 --> 00:05:25.720
something in the water loudly. My
kids were still sleeping, my father in

51
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:30.240
law and husband were across the street
lakeside fishing, so I walked over to

52
00:05:30.279 --> 00:05:32.680
the edge where trees and bushes were
at the edge, hoping to be able

53
00:05:32.720 --> 00:05:43.279
to see anything, but I could
hear a hugging or grunting noise. I

54
00:05:43.360 --> 00:05:47.720
know raccoons smack rocks, and I'm
gonna say hugging is probably an autotype thing,

55
00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:53.680
so let's see it. Loud grunting
noise. Okay, I know raccoons

56
00:05:53.720 --> 00:05:59.120
smack rocks together and bears make grunting
and huffing noises, but I could only

57
00:05:59.120 --> 00:06:01.439
see trees and bush. I went
back inside him My husband came out and

58
00:06:01.480 --> 00:06:05.160
sat with me, but no more
noise. And that night, after we

59
00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:09.439
all went to sleep, something was
walking around or moving something out on the

60
00:06:09.519 --> 00:06:14.000
deck outside of our bedroom. The
deck head side stairs to ground. My

61
00:06:14.120 --> 00:06:18.399
new Foundland mixed dog decided to leave
our bedroom and wandered downstairs for some reason,

62
00:06:18.920 --> 00:06:21.879
which he does not normally do,
and our other dog was very alert

63
00:06:21.920 --> 00:06:26.800
and would bark occasionally. My husband
and kids did go into the woods to

64
00:06:26.839 --> 00:06:30.600
explore, but saw heard nothing.
My kids followed the creek back up into

65
00:06:30.600 --> 00:06:34.879
the woods slash mountain side and found
some little stacks of sticks in odd places,

66
00:06:34.920 --> 00:06:39.560
like on top of logs or back
up under a tree that had its

67
00:06:41.040 --> 00:06:44.680
roots exposed from erosion, but sticks
placed in a non natural way, too

68
00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:47.600
perfectly positioned. My son said it
looked like something a child would do,

69
00:06:47.720 --> 00:06:53.120
or a juvenile big foot. My
kids loved exploring and being outside and are

70
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:57.680
not jokesters, so I rolled them
out playing pranks on us. Had the

71
00:06:57.720 --> 00:07:01.120
creek towards the back of the cabin
where some chairs were some chairs, and

72
00:07:01.160 --> 00:07:04.040
we would just sit out there while
they were playing in the creek. This

73
00:07:04.079 --> 00:07:10.240
is another area where we all felt
creepy goose bumps. Almost funny thing is

74
00:07:10.279 --> 00:07:14.800
none of us expressed these feelings to
each other until months later. My mother

75
00:07:14.839 --> 00:07:17.240
in law apparently told the kids she
felt like she was being washed out back

76
00:07:17.240 --> 00:07:20.279
there too. The odd thing was
my father in law started sleeping in a

77
00:07:20.319 --> 00:07:25.399
big chair downstairs in the living room
by the front door, and he was

78
00:07:25.519 --> 00:07:28.879
armed. None of us could figure
out why, and this was on the

79
00:07:28.879 --> 00:07:31.040
second night we were there, about
four to five days. I did manage

80
00:07:31.079 --> 00:07:34.759
to take a picture of what looked
like a footprint in the soft grass and

81
00:07:34.879 --> 00:07:39.240
dirt area by the creek. Like
I said, I don't know what it

82
00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:41.560
was for sure, but I have
always had a sixth sense, and I've

83
00:07:41.600 --> 00:07:44.839
experienced odd things in my life,
and my instincts are usually not wrong.

84
00:07:46.319 --> 00:07:49.319
I should probably contact the owners of
the cabin and ask if anything unusual has

85
00:07:49.319 --> 00:07:53.959
happened there, but I never have, so my family's experience probably isn't much,

86
00:07:54.399 --> 00:07:58.879
especially not having seen a big foot. You were the first official big

87
00:07:58.879 --> 00:08:05.480
foot website reported to Thank you well. I would say that's a fascinating story,

88
00:08:05.720 --> 00:08:07.879
very cool details in that story.
And I know at the end she

89
00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:11.360
says it's not a big deal.
I think that's a big deal. That's

90
00:08:11.399 --> 00:08:18.639
pretty cool. How the different members
of the family we're having the same feelings.

91
00:08:18.199 --> 00:08:24.680
They only found that out until much
later. The knocks back at them

92
00:08:24.920 --> 00:08:28.720
almost immediately is a huge deal.
The dogs, how they reacted, feeling

93
00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:35.720
of being watched. There's a lot
of evidence in there. That's a great

94
00:08:35.759 --> 00:08:41.639
story, so thanks again for sharing
that with me. If you're listening to

95
00:08:41.679 --> 00:08:43.759
this podcast and you have a story
you'd like to share, an encounter you

96
00:08:43.879 --> 00:08:50.879
had, or something happened in the
woods or a swamp or whatever, please

97
00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:54.799
feel free to send us an email
to Bigfoot Society at gmail dot com.

98
00:08:56.080 --> 00:08:58.919
You can spend plenty of space in
an email and you don't have any character

99
00:09:00.000 --> 00:09:07.559
your limitations. Hello, Bigfoot Society, this is Jeremiah coming at you with

100
00:09:07.600 --> 00:09:11.519
another episode. Are going to talk
about a few different things tonight. We're

101
00:09:11.519 --> 00:09:15.559
gonna talk about a few podcasts I've
been listening to, and a few things

102
00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:20.200
that are coming on the horizon for
Bigfoot Society. So let's get right into

103
00:09:20.279 --> 00:09:26.720
it. Let's talk first about the
big Foot and Beyond podcasts. If you're

104
00:09:26.759 --> 00:09:31.240
not listening to that podcast, there's
a lot of really cool stuff that was

105
00:09:31.279 --> 00:09:39.120
talked about this last week. For
example, could hear all about Cliff's new

106
00:09:39.200 --> 00:09:43.919
Bigfoot museum a near boring Oregon and
what they think of the other Bigfoot attraction

107
00:09:45.279 --> 00:09:50.919
or museum events centers around the US. Pretty cool chat, actually, you

108
00:09:50.039 --> 00:09:54.960
want to check that out. Also, a little tidbit they dropped is that

109
00:09:56.639 --> 00:10:01.799
there are certain Bigfoot locations, citing
locations that are actually code named in the

110
00:10:01.840 --> 00:10:07.159
Bigfoot community. For example, I
think one of them was like Linda's Lake

111
00:10:07.279 --> 00:10:11.799
or something like that. They mentioned
these places aren't even on maps, and

112
00:10:11.879 --> 00:10:16.440
also they've been even if they are
on maps, they've been titled something else.

113
00:10:16.480 --> 00:10:18.799
So that you know, Cliff and
Bobo and you know, the people

114
00:10:18.879 --> 00:10:24.840
that are in the know can mention
these things in something out in the open

115
00:10:24.919 --> 00:10:33.279
like a podcast and not have to
worry about these places being compromised. It's

116
00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:39.080
actually really smart. That is a
pretty cool conversation. They also chatted about

117
00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:48.399
kind of background about all the different
paranormal in Bigfoot type shows that are coming

118
00:10:48.399 --> 00:10:52.440
out, mentioned a little bit about
Matt Moneymakers show that's coming out too.

119
00:10:52.919 --> 00:11:00.399
Bobo shared an interesting story about him
and his girlfriend and how and counter.

120
00:11:00.519 --> 00:11:05.279
They had also another podcast that had
an episode come out of nowhere as the

121
00:11:05.360 --> 00:11:15.759
North American wood Aide Conservancy Conservacy an
AWAC. And I'll warn you this episode

122
00:11:15.840 --> 00:11:20.840
is a long one, but you'll
want to check it out. These guys

123
00:11:20.919 --> 00:11:24.919
that work down an area X in
Oklahoma, I mean, they're scientists,

124
00:11:24.000 --> 00:11:31.879
they know their stuff and they go
into detail about the different vocalizations that these

125
00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:39.759
Bigfoot and Sascott Sasquatch creatures are doing
down Oklahoma, and they're gonna play examples,

126
00:11:39.720 --> 00:11:45.120
sound examples, break it down for
you. It's a fascinating episode.

127
00:11:45.159 --> 00:11:48.039
I'm still working through it myself,
but I'm about three cores weight on well

128
00:11:48.120 --> 00:11:52.519
worth. You know, if you
do anything where you're you know, you

129
00:11:52.559 --> 00:11:56.360
need something in the background or you're
driving around. It to two hour episode,

130
00:11:56.399 --> 00:12:09.279
but it's worth it. Also,
something I wanted to mention is getting

131
00:12:09.320 --> 00:12:13.480
closer to the Van Meter Visitor Festival
in Iowa. If you're anywhere near Iowa

132
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:20.799
or Central Iowa, you will not
want to miss this. They've got some

133
00:12:20.960 --> 00:12:24.159
really, really cool people that are
going to be showing up for the festival

134
00:12:24.159 --> 00:12:30.559
this year. I mean, it's
it's packed. We're gonna be having a

135
00:12:30.600 --> 00:12:39.519
showing of Seth Breed Loves new documentary
Tear in Disguise fantastic. Don't believe Seth

136
00:12:39.519 --> 00:12:43.519
will be there, but you know, maybe next year we'll get them.

137
00:12:43.519 --> 00:12:46.399
But showing the documentary, so if
you haven't seen it, it's a free

138
00:12:46.399 --> 00:12:48.320
way to see the documentary, which
you should still see, you know,

139
00:12:48.559 --> 00:12:54.600
still pay for it. Still go
to Amazon Prime whatever. Also Linda Godfrey,

140
00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:03.360
of course famous for Bray Road East
up in up in the north Midwest.

141
00:13:03.440 --> 00:13:09.639
They're going to be showing a new
documentary which sounds pretty cool. I

142
00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:15.519
think it's about Midwest panthers of some
sort. I'm kind of interested to see

143
00:13:15.519 --> 00:13:20.080
what that is. I'm really hoping
she's going to be there as well,

144
00:13:20.240 --> 00:13:24.480
that would be cool. If not, we're gonna get her next year.

145
00:13:24.799 --> 00:13:30.320
You know, every year this thing
is getting crazier and crazier. Also,

146
00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:37.080
a documentary I've been working through right
now on Amazon Prime. It's Finding Jay

147
00:13:37.600 --> 00:13:43.120
Jay Pachochin believe it said in the
name right, He's gonna be there at

148
00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:46.960
a table. So he's just gonna
be there hanging out. So if you

149
00:13:46.080 --> 00:13:50.159
like the documentary or the content that
Jay puts out, He's gonna be at

150
00:13:50.159 --> 00:13:54.120
the Van Meter Visitor Festival and I'm
gonna be looking forward to chatting with him

151
00:13:54.159 --> 00:13:58.360
and meeting him. Seems like he's
a really cool guy. But he's just

152
00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:03.679
up the road up in Wisconsin there. So it's a free one day event

153
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:11.480
based on a sighting of a flying
monster that was seen in Van Meter,

154
00:14:11.639 --> 00:14:16.200
Iowa, just west of des Moines
and now the town has a one day

155
00:14:16.279 --> 00:14:18.440
festival about it. But every year
we you know, they add more and

156
00:14:18.519 --> 00:14:24.480
more. There's food to eat,
there's different tables to check out with local

157
00:14:24.559 --> 00:14:30.440
authors, Midwest authors. It's the
paranormal, there's the big Foot, there's

158
00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:35.000
flying cryptids, there's all sorts of
crazy stuff. There's people that sneak in

159
00:14:35.080 --> 00:14:37.840
with Mothman shirts. But you know, we we let it fly as it

160
00:14:37.879 --> 00:14:45.759
were nice pun there. So that's
my plug for my local cryptid festival that

161
00:14:45.919 --> 00:14:50.039
I love going to each year.
This year is gonna be year number three

162
00:14:50.120 --> 00:14:52.279
going to it, and I am
pumped. So I will see you there.

163
00:14:52.320 --> 00:14:56.679
In fact, if you're going to
be at the Van Meter Visitor Festival,

164
00:14:58.840 --> 00:15:03.960
I want to know if you're there, we'll be back with more Bigfoot

165
00:15:05.039 --> 00:15:09.879
Society. After these words from our
sponsors, I'm gonna pull let's get into

166
00:15:09.919 --> 00:15:13.960
the show. I wanted to start
off by doing a review of the Momo

167
00:15:15.039 --> 00:15:20.320
movie from Small Town Monsters. This
Momo movie, you gotta put on your

168
00:15:20.840 --> 00:15:30.519
your imagination kind of suspend disbelief because
you're getting a fiction movie at the same

169
00:15:30.519 --> 00:15:35.080
time you're getting a documentary movie,
and it's it's very, very meta.

170
00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:39.600
There's a lot of different stuff going
on here. Lyle Blackburn, it's a

171
00:15:39.720 --> 00:15:48.399
great author, great musician, plays
a cryptid show host and he's showing about

172
00:15:48.679 --> 00:15:54.519
the Momo monster from Louisiana, Missouri, the skits where Lyle is is being

173
00:15:54.559 --> 00:16:06.639
the host, and then there's these
these almost like little vignettes etters footnote,

174
00:16:07.200 --> 00:16:11.759
I'm recording this in my car.
You just heard my car making a weird

175
00:16:11.879 --> 00:16:19.000
noise because it's having some weird heater
issues. Anyways, Yeah, so if

176
00:16:19.000 --> 00:16:25.720
you don't, you know, want
Big Foot Society to have to record in

177
00:16:25.759 --> 00:16:30.279
his car, hit up that Amazon
wish list to get us a recording studio

178
00:16:30.360 --> 00:16:34.480
set up. Anyways, back to
the Momo review, Momo is a good

179
00:16:34.519 --> 00:16:38.440
story. There's a lot of really
good vignettes about Okay, this is the

180
00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:42.519
guy who originally found it. This
has happened. I don't want to give

181
00:16:42.559 --> 00:16:47.559
too much away. But the cool
thing is is if you know the inside

182
00:16:47.759 --> 00:16:52.600
people that are involved with small town
Monsters, those people are actually acting in

183
00:16:52.639 --> 00:16:57.360
the film. And there are also
some cameos that will knock your socks off.

184
00:16:57.480 --> 00:17:04.680
I'll just say Cliff and Bobo in
it, and the stuff that Cliff

185
00:17:04.680 --> 00:17:10.559
and Bobo Do in the posse scene
is incredible, Like, it's my favorite

186
00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:17.119
part. Guys, you gotta you
got to watch this movie. It's fantastic.

187
00:17:18.000 --> 00:17:26.079
On the flip side, I love
it when these guys show small town

188
00:17:26.119 --> 00:17:37.039
Americana or small town America, maybe
both. And the real trick is showing

189
00:17:37.079 --> 00:17:45.119
these towns showing their folklore before these
towns disappear in the folklore disappears with it

190
00:17:45.319 --> 00:17:52.920
and the shots that they've gotten in
this movie Beautiful small Town America. The

191
00:17:53.000 --> 00:17:59.920
main streets, the people that are, you know, fighting to keep the

192
00:18:00.200 --> 00:18:04.359
town alive, but it's going the
way of the walmarts are coming in,

193
00:18:04.680 --> 00:18:08.640
the Amazon is coming in, and
it's the last stand. Thankfully, some

194
00:18:08.720 --> 00:18:15.160
of these towns are realizing, hey, let's cash in on these legends.

195
00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:22.400
And that's why I think it's it's
a cool resurgence of cryptozoology of American folklore.

196
00:18:23.119 --> 00:18:26.279
It's stuffy. You can't find it
on the internet. Well maybe you

197
00:18:26.319 --> 00:18:30.960
can a little bit, but you
can't find it by going to the mall.

198
00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:34.480
You can't find it by going to
a party that it's there. But

199
00:18:34.599 --> 00:18:40.279
we got to dig for it and
we were just at the van meter visitor

200
00:18:40.319 --> 00:18:45.680
festival. My wife and I and
I want says. Michael Huntington had a

201
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:52.759
really cool, cool talk about how
he researches these legends and then goes around

202
00:18:52.759 --> 00:18:59.000
the US with his family and visit
them. It's really cool, and he

203
00:18:59.119 --> 00:19:02.799
uses technology to do it. You
know, he's looking through these old newspaper

204
00:19:02.880 --> 00:19:07.319
files and he's finding these old articles, and he's going to police stations.

205
00:19:08.119 --> 00:19:14.839
Sometimes you just have a drawing by
eyewitness of where the location is, but

206
00:19:14.960 --> 00:19:18.200
you got Google Maps and you got
a bird's eye view and you can figure

207
00:19:18.200 --> 00:19:22.759
it out where it is. That's
very cool. I just want on a

208
00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:27.440
super tangent there. But that's okay. So sometimes it's okay to turn off

209
00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:33.480
the TV, put down the iPhone
and go out and explore with your kids,

210
00:19:34.559 --> 00:19:40.720
your spouse, significant other, whatever, you go by yourself, that's

211
00:19:40.759 --> 00:19:51.160
fine. The Momo Monster Movie,
I know I'm not saying the actual title,

212
00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:53.799
so forgive me, but the Momo
Monster Movie, I seth bree love

213
00:19:55.079 --> 00:19:59.799
Small Town Monsters is legit. I
wasn't sure if I was going to be

214
00:20:00.160 --> 00:20:03.519
super fan, to be honest,
and I backed the kickstarter. I backed

215
00:20:03.759 --> 00:20:10.240
the kickstarter, but I watched it
the other night and it's great. We're

216
00:20:10.240 --> 00:20:22.279
gonna share newer siding report from the
bfr OH. This report is ATV rider

217
00:20:22.400 --> 00:20:27.119
recalls passing very close to a big
foot at dusk in eight Mile Canyon near

218
00:20:27.279 --> 00:20:33.559
Leedor in Idaho. Sappened in the
year two thousand and seven during the summer

219
00:20:33.640 --> 00:20:41.400
month of July near Road US twenty
eight. In July of two thousand and

220
00:20:41.400 --> 00:20:45.000
seven, a friend and I went
camping and fishing to the Birch Creek area

221
00:20:45.119 --> 00:20:51.000
off of Highway twenty eight in Clark
County. We crossed the creek and set

222
00:20:51.079 --> 00:20:57.680
up camp at the trailhead in eight
Mile Ken There's an ATV trail system that

223
00:20:57.720 --> 00:21:03.359
loops up the canyon around the mountain
range. One evening, we decided to

224
00:21:03.400 --> 00:21:07.359
go up to the canyon to the
southwest and explore a bit before dark.

225
00:21:07.119 --> 00:21:11.839
We found a lightly used trail that
went into a dark canyon. We suspected

226
00:21:11.920 --> 00:21:14.680
it went to a dead end,
but we went up the trail to look

227
00:21:14.720 --> 00:21:18.480
around. The trail went through a
dark canyon that seemed to have thicker vegetation

228
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:23.759
than the main eight Mile Canyon.
I remember noticing that there was a lot

229
00:21:23.799 --> 00:21:30.480
of deadfall. We got to the
end of the canyon trail that was about

230
00:21:30.519 --> 00:21:33.960
two miles in and came to a
very scenic view of towering shell rock cliffs

231
00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:37.880
and bowls. We realized that it
was slowly starting to get darker, so

232
00:21:37.920 --> 00:21:41.680
we decided to head back to camp. As we rode down the trail,

233
00:21:41.839 --> 00:21:47.240
I stayed about fifty yards behind my
friends. It was getting dark enough that

234
00:21:47.319 --> 00:21:52.920
the headlights on our ATVs were illuminating
the trail and passing trees, but still

235
00:21:53.000 --> 00:21:56.640
enough light in the sky so you
could look around and see hillsides and clearings.

236
00:21:57.240 --> 00:22:00.640
Being a hunter, I was looking
for big as I traveled. At

237
00:22:00.640 --> 00:22:03.960
one spot, the trail started to
angle to the right. As my friend

238
00:22:04.000 --> 00:22:08.119
made the curve, I remembering observing
what I thought was a weird stump or

239
00:22:08.200 --> 00:22:11.400
log off the trail to the left. It seemed about four feet tall,

240
00:22:11.880 --> 00:22:17.000
and I thought, I don't remember
seeing if they're on our way in a

241
00:22:17.000 --> 00:22:19.599
couple of hours ago. Just after
he went by it, though, it

242
00:22:19.759 --> 00:22:23.880
stood up. The thing was facing
away from me and looking toward my friend

243
00:22:23.960 --> 00:22:29.000
as he drove away. I was
too close to do anything other than stay

244
00:22:29.079 --> 00:22:32.519
my course and go by. As
I started going by, I leaned away

245
00:22:32.559 --> 00:22:37.200
from it to my right. It
looked over toward me over its right shoulder.

246
00:22:37.279 --> 00:22:41.119
It then appeared to straighten out its
right arm toward me. I ducked

247
00:22:41.160 --> 00:22:45.720
my head and was accelerated up the
trail. I don't feel that it was

248
00:22:45.759 --> 00:22:48.160
trying to harm me, even though
I was extremely frightened at the time.

249
00:22:49.519 --> 00:22:55.200
I estimated the being to be about
eight feet tall, judging from the height

250
00:22:57.400 --> 00:23:00.680
and judging from my height on the
TV at the time in relation to its

251
00:23:00.759 --> 00:23:04.240
arm height. It had no clothing. It was covered in dark hair from

252
00:23:04.240 --> 00:23:07.839
the top of its heads down or
the top of its head down. I

253
00:23:07.960 --> 00:23:11.799
noticed that dark scan out's face and
yellowish eyes. The right hand was similar

254
00:23:11.839 --> 00:23:15.599
to a humans with fingers and a
thumb, all dark in color. I

255
00:23:15.640 --> 00:23:19.480
remember smelling an odor similar to an
elk in the rut, but with a

256
00:23:19.519 --> 00:23:23.799
stronger scent. Two years later,
several of us decided to go back to

257
00:23:23.839 --> 00:23:29.720
the canyon and ride the main trail
system. As we went by the old

258
00:23:29.720 --> 00:23:33.079
trailhead, we noticed that the Forest
Service had boarded off the trail with an

259
00:23:33.079 --> 00:23:40.279
elaborate wall of fencing, stating trail
was closed to traffic. So that's a

260
00:23:40.319 --> 00:23:45.279
pretty cool story. There's a lot
going on there. You may have seen.

261
00:23:45.680 --> 00:23:48.839
This reminds me of a few videos
I've seen on YouTube where it's like,

262
00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:55.920
you know, a guy on the
trail and you see something that moves

263
00:23:55.960 --> 00:24:00.519
away, but not out of the
main focus of the film. You got

264
00:24:00.519 --> 00:24:03.839
to watch it a few times to
kind of see it there. That's pretty

265
00:24:03.839 --> 00:24:08.920
cool. I probably would have kept
riding pretty quick away if it started to

266
00:24:08.960 --> 00:24:14.160
reach it its arm and hand towards
me as well. That is a very

267
00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:18.839
interesting detail how they tried to go
back a few years later and the trail

268
00:24:19.039 --> 00:24:26.720
was closed off the traffic. I
mean, you never know why stuff like

269
00:24:26.759 --> 00:24:30.079
that happened. Maybe there was something
found. Maybe there's a nest found like

270
00:24:30.680 --> 00:24:37.559
the Olympic I believe it's the Olympic
Project guys have found. I heard about

271
00:24:37.559 --> 00:24:44.839
that on a podcast where you know, they found a few kind of nests

272
00:24:44.880 --> 00:24:48.119
like structures out in the woods a
Washington state. I want to think it

273
00:24:48.200 --> 00:24:52.960
is, but you know, in
the next few episodes, we may share

274
00:24:52.440 --> 00:24:56.880
a few more sighting reports. But
we would love to share your sighting report

275
00:24:57.839 --> 00:25:04.000
If you want to send your report
to Bigfoot Society at gmail dot com,

276
00:25:04.119 --> 00:25:08.680
or you can go to at Bigfoot
Society on Instagram. And just send us

277
00:25:08.680 --> 00:25:15.799
a message DM there we get reports
either way, we'll always ask if we

278
00:25:15.839 --> 00:25:18.359
can share it. But we have
gotten citing reports in the past where we're

279
00:25:18.400 --> 00:25:29.799
the first person that the report he
has talked to, which is really cool.

280
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:33.440
That's an honor. So you know, we are here to respect what

281
00:25:33.599 --> 00:25:37.720
you've experienced, and if you have
any evidence or photos or videos where you

282
00:25:37.759 --> 00:25:42.920
just want to type out your story
siting, please feel free to send that

283
00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:49.759
over. We will respect you and
you're siting with the greatest care. Again,

284
00:25:51.599 --> 00:26:00.359
check out the Momo Monster movie by
Seth Breedlove and Smalltown Monsters. And

285
00:26:00.519 --> 00:26:06.160
we're going to try to get another
interview going here for the podcast Who Knows

286
00:26:06.519 --> 00:26:11.960
Who's next? Get ready? I
may be approaching you. You have no

287
00:26:11.000 --> 00:26:14.920
idea if it's coming or not,
but good try to get a new one,

288
00:26:15.599 --> 00:26:19.920
a good one, and see if
we can get one just as good

289
00:26:19.960 --> 00:26:25.119
as a Seth Breedlove interview. That's
our top one so far. But again,

290
00:26:25.400 --> 00:26:27.480
thank you for taking the time out
of your day, your night to

291
00:26:27.599 --> 00:26:37.319
listen to our podcast. Hi,
this is Jeremiah from Bigfoot Society coming at

292
00:26:37.359 --> 00:26:45.160
you the next episode of the Bigfoot
Society podcast. We're in our mobile podcast

293
00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:51.119
studio. I e my car tonight, So if you hear clicking in the

294
00:26:51.119 --> 00:26:56.920
background, it's because I'm in a
car that has issues with heating. So

295
00:26:57.920 --> 00:27:02.799
also if you hear people yet allowing
people driving by, that's why. Anyways,

296
00:27:02.880 --> 00:27:11.400
let's get onto the show tonight.
We're gonna talk about primarily how I

297
00:27:11.440 --> 00:27:17.759
met Jay Pochochin, and then what
I thought of his documentary Finding Jay.

298
00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:25.480
After that at the Van Meter Visitor
Festival, which I know is not a

299
00:27:25.480 --> 00:27:29.799
big foot thing, but in Iowa
we have a flying cryptid that was seen

300
00:27:29.839 --> 00:27:33.279
in the late eighteen hundreds you can
see in the later In earlier episodes,

301
00:27:33.319 --> 00:27:41.599
I talked about that, but this
year is actually a gentleman that came down

302
00:27:41.640 --> 00:27:47.440
from Wisconsin. His name is Jay
Pachochin, and he has put it together

303
00:27:47.480 --> 00:27:52.759
a documentary called Finding Jay. So
as able to talk to Jay there,

304
00:27:52.079 --> 00:28:00.400
me and my buddy Andrew, we're
hanging out there with our significant others.

305
00:28:03.000 --> 00:28:19.680
Jay is just a very down to
earth, genuine guy. Sorry, there's

306
00:28:19.680 --> 00:28:23.839
a cop that just went by very
slowly by my parked car, so I

307
00:28:23.880 --> 00:28:30.720
just got a little nervous there,
but he seems to have kept driving on

308
00:28:30.519 --> 00:28:34.000
right now, we're in the east
village of the Moines. Anyways, Jay

309
00:28:34.039 --> 00:28:40.079
Pechochan, very genuine individual, took
his time out to talk to us about

310
00:28:41.359 --> 00:28:48.799
the findings that he has seen in
the Kettle Marine section of Wisconsin, which

311
00:28:48.039 --> 00:28:52.079
you know, if you may know
about, he may not. It's a

312
00:28:52.200 --> 00:29:00.160
vast wooded area with these large,
large, deep indentations that are caused by

313
00:29:00.359 --> 00:29:03.720
the glaciers moving through Wisconsin back in
the day, way back in the day.

314
00:29:03.799 --> 00:29:10.960
So anyways, you're hiking through those
and you've got these deep, deep

315
00:29:11.079 --> 00:29:18.079
wooded glacier indentations that are now full
of woods and stuff and great area for

316
00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:26.960
bigfoot to hide in, among other
things. So now there's many different ways

317
00:29:26.160 --> 00:29:33.640
to watch Jay's documentary Finding Jay.
You know, you can buy a copy

318
00:29:33.119 --> 00:29:37.039
from him directly, which I would
recommend, you know, support the artists.

319
00:29:37.039 --> 00:29:41.480
There's other ways to support the artists
as well. You can find his

320
00:29:41.640 --> 00:29:48.279
documentary on things like I know it's
on Amazon Prime Video. And so I

321
00:29:48.359 --> 00:29:53.480
spend some time watching his documentary and
starts out with, you know, great

322
00:29:53.640 --> 00:30:02.240
overview of different bigfoot, satsquatch video
cli from around the internet, very interesting,

323
00:30:03.720 --> 00:30:06.920
and then Jay gets really into it, you know, kind of talking

324
00:30:06.960 --> 00:30:12.480
about his family history and you know
how he got into the whole Bigfoot thing,

325
00:30:12.559 --> 00:30:18.279
how he used to be more into
paranormal investigations and then he got into

326
00:30:18.279 --> 00:30:22.960
Bigfoot. It's very interesting. I
definitely recommend looking into you know, watching

327
00:30:23.000 --> 00:30:30.160
it for yourself. But the further
you get into this documentary, Jay gets

328
00:30:30.319 --> 00:30:37.720
into some it's field reports with different
people that he's brought out, everyone from

329
00:30:37.720 --> 00:30:48.240
his kids, his friends, his
co workers, and there's stuff that has

330
00:30:48.319 --> 00:30:52.839
gone over in this documentary that blow
your mind. I mean, for one,

331
00:30:53.759 --> 00:30:59.559
really good graphics in it. I
believe Jay has a graphics background.

332
00:30:59.559 --> 00:31:04.279
There's some phenomenal drone footage as well, like the drone footage that you see

333
00:31:04.400 --> 00:31:10.799
of Wisconsin in the woods. Blow
your mind how beautiful it is. I

334
00:31:10.799 --> 00:31:17.119
definitely want to go up there and
see it now. But man, there's

335
00:31:17.160 --> 00:31:23.200
some weird stuff that happens up in
those woods. There's some things that they

336
00:31:23.319 --> 00:31:30.440
see heat signatures of and it will
just, you know, blow your mind.

337
00:31:30.480 --> 00:31:34.599
I don't want to to spoil the
one part, but I also want

338
00:31:34.640 --> 00:31:41.960
to do a review of the documentary. Somebody's gonna start talking about, you

339
00:31:42.000 --> 00:31:45.000
know, see what happens. Either
way, you need to go watch it.

340
00:31:45.960 --> 00:31:52.839
There's this one part where him and
some people are out in Kettle Marine

341
00:31:53.160 --> 00:32:04.119
and they straight up see red Eyes
and they another paradise. I'm just giving

342
00:32:04.119 --> 00:32:09.279
the surface about the stuff Jay throws
at. Ye. The other cool thing

343
00:32:09.480 --> 00:32:16.279
is that Jay has a very active
YouTube channel, and I'm just starting to

344
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:23.039
look through all the footed or the
things on that as well. And there's

345
00:32:23.079 --> 00:32:30.599
one I'm watching right now and it
literally picks up right after the documentary ends.

346
00:32:30.640 --> 00:32:38.640
They go back to the same place. It's super cool, man,

347
00:32:39.039 --> 00:32:43.880
It's a really good documentary. Guys, like you know, y'all be honest,

348
00:32:43.960 --> 00:32:46.880
Like you look at the title and
you're like, Okay, what is

349
00:32:46.920 --> 00:32:50.519
this guy doing. He's trying to
rip offs a finding big Foot thing.

350
00:32:51.200 --> 00:32:55.759
But then you watch it and you're
like, Okay, I get I get

351
00:32:55.799 --> 00:33:00.279
what he means. I get what
he means. I mean. In my

352
00:33:00.359 --> 00:33:06.480
opinion, it's a definite, you
know, must watch, must check it

353
00:33:06.480 --> 00:33:15.519
out, support the artists, all
that good stuff. You may know that

354
00:33:15.640 --> 00:33:22.839
I also like to listen to a
few podcasts myself, So it's gonna spend

355
00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:30.440
a few a few minutes kind of
going over stuff that I have gleaned from

356
00:33:30.640 --> 00:33:38.400
the big Foot in beyond podcast.
I don't know. I would love to

357
00:33:38.440 --> 00:33:45.240
interview them. Cliff and Bobo are
amazing. I feel like, you know,

358
00:33:45.279 --> 00:33:52.039
I'm just from listening to their podcast. Hilarious. Cool thing number one

359
00:33:53.000 --> 00:34:00.799
in Cliff's big Foot Museum. If
you want to get married, if can

360
00:34:00.920 --> 00:34:06.240
marry you at the big Foot Museum
in Boring, Oregon. That's legit,

361
00:34:06.640 --> 00:34:10.760
he says on the podcast. He'll
marry you in front of their their big

362
00:34:10.760 --> 00:34:15.360
Foot. The other thing I just
remember is just a few days ago,

363
00:34:15.599 --> 00:34:21.159
of course, Saint Patty's stayed now, not the St. Patrick's day,

364
00:34:21.159 --> 00:34:23.599
of course, because look at the
calendar, it's not anywhere near that.

365
00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:34.559
But we're talking about the day of
the recording of the Patterson Gimlin film.

366
00:34:34.679 --> 00:34:40.840
We all know what that is.
You've all seen the footage with Patty walking

367
00:34:40.880 --> 00:34:49.239
across the creek bed in the Bluff
Creek area doing a little look back around

368
00:34:49.239 --> 00:34:55.559
the shoulder, look back over the
shoulder, I should say, but think

369
00:34:55.639 --> 00:35:00.079
about that, think about that whole
history, or for a few minutes.

370
00:35:04.320 --> 00:35:12.679
From what I know so far,
there's a lot of ridicule, ridicule over

371
00:35:12.719 --> 00:35:22.039
the last few years, over the
whole thing, and just in the last

372
00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:27.599
few years. I feel like mister
Gunman is starting to get the respect in

373
00:35:27.679 --> 00:35:37.719
the community and starting to get around
the different conferences and people are definitely starting

374
00:35:37.719 --> 00:35:46.320
to respect him, and that's awesome. But I mean, you just imagine,

375
00:35:46.360 --> 00:35:51.920
like these guys are, like,
what if you had gotten the footage

376
00:35:51.920 --> 00:35:58.000
and you'd been scared to share it. Let's just get rid of this.

377
00:35:58.079 --> 00:36:04.559
People are gonna think we're crazy,
right, they just go along their whole

378
00:36:05.079 --> 00:36:14.079
lives, and yeah, it just
kind of blows my mind that these guys,

379
00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:22.000
you know, they have the guts
to do something that most people wouldn't

380
00:36:22.199 --> 00:36:24.679
wouldn't have done, and that's gonna
you know, share the footage, share

381
00:36:24.679 --> 00:36:36.480
the evidence. Hearing Bigfoot society,
you know, we want to to share

382
00:36:36.519 --> 00:36:44.039
the evidence, also share the stories, but more importantly share share the evidence.

383
00:36:45.880 --> 00:36:49.880
A paraphrase of what you know Cliff
has been saying recently over and over

384
00:36:49.920 --> 00:37:00.519
again, is it's not just stories, it's also evidence. It's hard when

385
00:37:00.559 --> 00:37:06.480
you have a podcast to share.
You know, we usually share more of

386
00:37:06.519 --> 00:37:10.920
the stories, but that's hard to
show it share evidence over a podcast for

387
00:37:12.039 --> 00:37:14.440
him. And I'm sure if I
think about it for a while, I

388
00:37:14.679 --> 00:37:22.119
kind of figure that out. But
what we want to do is we want

389
00:37:22.199 --> 00:37:29.639
to be the way that you share
your Bigfoot or Sasquatch story to the rest

390
00:37:29.639 --> 00:37:32.719
of the world. There's multiple ways
that you can do that. If you

391
00:37:32.760 --> 00:37:37.639
have Instagram, you can go over
to apt Bigfoot Society and you can send

392
00:37:37.639 --> 00:37:42.719
me a direct message and say,
hey, I've got a story to share,

393
00:37:42.800 --> 00:37:49.400
and we'll go back and forth,
and you know, I'll ask if

394
00:37:49.440 --> 00:37:54.199
I can share your story. I
won't use your real name, you know,

395
00:37:54.280 --> 00:37:57.719
unless you want me to. But
most people don't, you know,

396
00:37:57.880 --> 00:38:05.400
for some sort of security people out
there and wanted to hear encounter stories.

397
00:38:07.360 --> 00:38:10.039
So if you got some also,
you can send me an email at Bigfoot

398
00:38:10.079 --> 00:38:16.119
Society at gmail dot com. That
also leads into we are starting to put
