Season 1

A campsite in Eastern Kentucky becomes the center of a series of unsettling events when an expedition group reports footsteps circling tents in the middle of the night, loud vocalizations from the darkness, objects being moved around camp, and an onion thrown from the woods that struck a camper hard enough to leave a welt.


That encounter is only one of the stories featured in this packed voicemail roundup.


Listeners from across North America share firsthand reports including a massive footprint discovered near Icebox Cave in Ohio, chilling tree knocks and screams near California's Upper Cache Creek, a childhood encounter with a small hairy creature in a Tennessee cemetery, a terrifying nighttime experience outside a tent in North Idaho, possible rock-rolling activity along Oregon's Bigfoot Highway, and a thermal sighting of a towering figure in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Georgia.


These accounts come from hunters, campers, hikers, outdoorsmen, and everyday people who found themselves face-to-face with something they still struggle to explain.

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:03.120
You're listening to Bigfa Society, and I'm Jeremiah Byron. In

2
00:00:03.160 --> 00:00:05.879
this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to bring

3
00:00:05.879 --> 00:00:08.720
you first hand encounters from people who say they've seen

4
00:00:08.839 --> 00:00:12.880
something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers to

5
00:00:12.960 --> 00:00:16.719
quiet farms and crowded highways. The stories come from everywhere,

6
00:00:16.760 --> 00:00:19.719
and each one leaves us with more questions than answers.

7
00:00:20.719 --> 00:00:24.000
These are the voices of the people who've lived it.

8
00:00:24.079 --> 00:00:27.440
To settle in, because today you'll hear another account that

9
00:00:27.600 --> 00:00:30.160
just might change the way you see the woods forever.

10
00:00:30.440 --> 00:00:33.200
So stay with us. Please keep Jeremiah in your prayers

11
00:00:33.200 --> 00:00:37.320
as he continues his fight against cancer. For more updates

12
00:00:37.359 --> 00:00:40.840

let's get into it. Enjoy these voicemails of bigfoot encounters

26
00:01:22.599 --> 00:01:23.840
from all over the country.

27
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:29.480
So back in March of twenty twenty, it was around

28
00:01:29.480 --> 00:01:33.280
the twentieth of March. Me and my wife were hiking

29
00:01:34.319 --> 00:01:38.879
out in the Akron Peninsula area near Icebox Cave, and

30
00:01:38.959 --> 00:01:40.840
we decided we were going to jump off the beaten

31
00:01:40.879 --> 00:01:43.599
path and start taking some deer trails. Well, at a

32
00:01:43.599 --> 00:01:47.239
cross section of a deer trail, there was, if I

33
00:01:47.280 --> 00:01:52.680
had to guess, a bigfoot footprint in the middle of

34
00:01:52.680 --> 00:01:55.159
this trail, like it had stepped in the center of

35
00:01:55.239 --> 00:01:58.519
this section and then cleared it, and there was a

36
00:01:58.560 --> 00:02:01.760
clear indent of heat and toes pushing through the mud.

37
00:02:02.560 --> 00:02:04.319
It was full of water by the time we got there,

38
00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:06.680
but it was still very visible and I took a

39
00:02:06.719 --> 00:02:13.680
photo of it, and it's uh, it was. It was

40
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:16.479
really cool, but I thought it was kind of strange

41
00:02:16.479 --> 00:02:21.159
that this bigfoot was thirty yards forty yards in the

42
00:02:21.159 --> 00:02:24.840
woods away from a normal hiking trail where hundreds of

43
00:02:24.879 --> 00:02:28.159
people are at almost every day. But I just wanted

44
00:02:28.159 --> 00:02:29.039
to share my story with you.

45
00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:31.680
Guys.

46
00:02:32.360 --> 00:02:33.759
Hi, my name is Dave.

47
00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:35.800
Well.

48
00:02:35.879 --> 00:02:39.759
I guess my story starts when my cousin from New

49
00:02:39.840 --> 00:02:49.719
York came here to Grafton, Ohio. I was eighteen at

50
00:02:49.759 --> 00:02:54.400
the time, and we had the t tops out of

51
00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:57.599
my seventy nine Grand Prix Lindenburg and we were out

52
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:03.719
on the back roads cruised and and this location has

53
00:03:03.840 --> 00:03:09.879
been well known for crazy stuff happening, like people parking

54
00:03:09.960 --> 00:03:13.479
there and party in and somebody coming up and trying

55
00:03:13.479 --> 00:03:17.599
to push their vehicle over, and a lot of stuff's

56
00:03:17.639 --> 00:03:21.560
happened there. I mean, people's been murdered there, and it's

57
00:03:21.680 --> 00:03:26.360
just I'm surprised that it's never made the news or

58
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:32.800
it's not on YouTube. But I was thinking about trying

59
00:03:32.879 --> 00:03:36.560
to take somebody out there to show them at night

60
00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:43.120
time where this bigfoot lives. I have a YouTube channel

61
00:03:47.759 --> 00:03:51.960
with me at the location, and there's a structure there

62
00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:58.439
that got built by the by the big guy. Anyway,

63
00:03:58.800 --> 00:04:03.199
we backed my Grand Prix into the spot and we

64
00:04:03.199 --> 00:04:05.800
were we had slayers cranked up, and it was about

65
00:04:05.840 --> 00:04:10.319
one o'clock in the morning. It was cold out when

66
00:04:10.319 --> 00:04:13.360
my cousin was driving my car, and he kicked the

67
00:04:13.479 --> 00:04:16.759
amp wire out of the fuse box and the radio

68
00:04:16.839 --> 00:04:20.160
went quiet, and it was pitch black. It's pitch black

69
00:04:20.199 --> 00:04:22.720
on this road. It's nothing, but it's in the forest

70
00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:31.639
that connects to other roads. And when he kicked the

71
00:04:31.680 --> 00:04:40.279
amphire out, we heard footsteps straight in front of us.

72
00:04:40.720 --> 00:04:43.439
There was a creek running lateral in front of the car,

73
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:46.360
and then the road runs parallel to the creek, and

74
00:04:46.360 --> 00:04:51.600
then the woods behind it, and we heard footsteps coming

75
00:04:51.759 --> 00:04:55.240
and I got I got out of the car anyway. I

76
00:04:55.240 --> 00:04:57.639
got out of the car, walked around the car, opened

77
00:04:57.680 --> 00:04:59.920
up the door. While he's sat in the driver's seating,

78
00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:02.720
I was reaching underneath the dash to hook the damp

79
00:05:02.800 --> 00:05:06.399
wire back in. And that's when we heard the tree break.

80
00:05:06.959 --> 00:05:09.720
It must have been like I don't even know, man,

81
00:05:10.199 --> 00:05:13.959
it sounded like a shotgun going off, that's how big

82
00:05:14.040 --> 00:05:18.160
the tree was that it broke. Me and him looked

83
00:05:18.199 --> 00:05:21.040
at each other and we screamed to the top of

84
00:05:21.079 --> 00:05:25.600
our lungs. And a pitch black and I couldn't get

85
00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:27.959
around the car fast enough, so I dove through the

86
00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:31.839
tee top and I told him start the car, go go,

87
00:05:32.079 --> 00:05:34.759
And by the time he pulled out of where we

88
00:05:34.759 --> 00:05:36.839
were back then and turned the left to go back

89
00:05:36.879 --> 00:05:40.600
to where I live. He turned the headlights on and

90
00:05:40.639 --> 00:05:42.439
I tried to get him to turn around, but he

91
00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:44.519
was crying. He wanted to go back to New York

92
00:05:46.319 --> 00:05:48.959
and a lot of crazy stuff's happened on this road.

93
00:05:51.879 --> 00:05:53.959
I just I really don't want to give the location,

94
00:05:54.160 --> 00:05:58.399
and unless I take somebody there to show him, give

95
00:05:58.480 --> 00:06:01.399
him an adventure at and old, So I'd like to

96
00:06:01.680 --> 00:06:07.600
get the story out well. Anyway, after we got done

97
00:06:07.639 --> 00:06:12.079
screaming to the top of our lungs, this thing was,

98
00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:14.920
at least it felt like it was like ten foot

99
00:06:14.959 --> 00:06:21.639
away from us, and it growled a low growl, and

100
00:06:22.279 --> 00:06:27.920
it was so deep, and it rumbled, and all the

101
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:33.680
hair on our body stood up. I've never ever been

102
00:06:33.720 --> 00:06:36.680
that scared in my Lif'm fifty years old now, I've

103
00:06:36.920 --> 00:06:42.600
never ever experienced something like that. If you want to

104
00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:45.399
give me a call, you can. My name's David Hicky.

105
00:06:47.279 --> 00:06:52.560
Hey, Jeremiah dre Brandenberg. I was turned on to this

106
00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:56.560
place by someone who didn't care about them, but told

107
00:06:56.600 --> 00:07:00.199
me where they were, that they were there and so

108
00:07:00.480 --> 00:07:04.600
we went and sure enough, the first four hikes we

109
00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:07.240
went in there hiking, I have evidence from four different

110
00:07:07.279 --> 00:07:10.360
times and plus a lot more because we've been in

111
00:07:10.399 --> 00:07:13.000
there like thirty times an hour more over the last

112
00:07:13.040 --> 00:07:16.959
year and a half. I got video, I got pictures.

113
00:07:17.079 --> 00:07:21.360
I seen them. The craziest stuff you ever saw in

114
00:07:21.399 --> 00:07:25.959
your life, and it's really amazing what's in there, and

115
00:07:26.680 --> 00:07:28.360
I like to share it with you guys. It's on

116
00:07:28.439 --> 00:07:31.120
my Facebook. All the pictures are all real, but I'm

117
00:07:31.160 --> 00:07:33.680
willing to tell you about each one of them. Give

118
00:07:33.720 --> 00:07:34.639
me hit me up.

119
00:07:34.759 --> 00:07:35.160
Thank you.

120
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:38.279
Hi.

121
00:07:38.639 --> 00:07:44.120
My name is Shanda. I won't give out my full name,

122
00:07:44.319 --> 00:07:46.839
but I'm originally from Utah and I just wanted to

123
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:50.519
share this experience. When I heard the howl back in

124
00:07:50.560 --> 00:07:56.759
twenty thirteen, twenty fourteen, I heard a lot of stories

125
00:07:56.839 --> 00:08:02.240
and I noticed that when I heard like a big

126
00:08:02.360 --> 00:08:06.720
howl and all the dogs are barking, and even my

127
00:08:06.839 --> 00:08:12.560
neighbors dogs are barking. I never thought anything of it,

128
00:08:12.680 --> 00:08:16.600
but I would go inside after I smoke a cigarettes.

129
00:08:16.639 --> 00:08:23.040
I used to smoke cigarettes and my grandmother would ask

130
00:08:23.120 --> 00:08:25.519
me what happened because it was just me and my

131
00:08:25.639 --> 00:08:30.560
grandmother at the place in a remote area within Monument Valley,

132
00:08:30.680 --> 00:08:38.279
Utah and Slash, Arizona. And she would always question me

133
00:08:39.080 --> 00:08:43.039
when I go in the in the room, like I

134
00:08:43.200 --> 00:08:47.600
told her what I heard. She said, yeah, that's in

135
00:08:47.600 --> 00:08:54.279
a Napaja way, that's the boogeyman. There's a word for it.

136
00:08:55.440 --> 00:08:58.440
I can't remember the word of it.

137
00:09:00.639 --> 00:09:01.080
Right now.

138
00:09:01.120 --> 00:09:07.399
On this society, we're losing that, you know, in Navajoa way,

139
00:09:07.559 --> 00:09:09.279
we're losing our language.

140
00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:09.600
Right.

141
00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:16.399
So with that being said, she would always warm me

142
00:09:16.600 --> 00:09:22.320
that stay inside because I describe what was, you know,

143
00:09:23.320 --> 00:09:30.960
what I heard. And then slowly gradually I noticed that

144
00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:35.279
the dogs would just be quiet. But yeah, yeah, they barked,

145
00:09:36.000 --> 00:09:41.519
but there's a point where it got quiet, right, And

146
00:09:42.159 --> 00:09:45.879
to me it's not normal because they would always bark

147
00:09:45.960 --> 00:09:54.279
when the kyotos where we lived at the time. Kyotes, yeah, foxes, yeah, dogs.

148
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:59.720
I know the tone of each voice. But I noticed

149
00:09:59.759 --> 00:10:07.720
that at the time it was quiet and that and

150
00:10:08.360 --> 00:10:13.200
I noticed that there's there's a lot of things I

151
00:10:13.279 --> 00:10:17.159
must say. But if you want to reach out to me,

152

Been out here for many decades, but I grew up

158
00:10:44.480 --> 00:10:52.039
in western Iowa, fishing, hunting, camping everywhere Minnesota, way back

159
00:10:52.240 --> 00:10:58.559
up in northern Canada with Indians at Alaska, and all

160
00:10:58.600 --> 00:11:03.960
throughout California. Again, giant redwoods to ancient for us, I've

161
00:11:04.000 --> 00:11:07.759
seen it all. Never thought of Bigfoot as a kid.

162
00:11:07.840 --> 00:11:11.840
Of course, we saw some of the movies. But I'm

163
00:11:12.679 --> 00:11:17.879
recording this to you because in nineteen eighty seven, eighty eight,

164
00:11:18.039 --> 00:11:22.080
eighty nine, coworker and I who worked in San Francisco

165
00:11:22.120 --> 00:11:25.759
together were I was about twenty seven to twenty eight

166
00:11:25.799 --> 00:11:31.039
at the time, and we would leave our work site

167
00:11:31.320 --> 00:11:34.919
Friday early, like at noon, we'd cut out. We'd drive

168
00:11:35.039 --> 00:11:39.200
up to the Upper Cash Creek. Yeah, that name starting

169
00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:42.360
to ring a bell because it's close to Indian Valley Reservoir.

170
00:11:43.279 --> 00:11:45.919
And I've heard a few episodes or at least one

171
00:11:46.639 --> 00:11:54.360
about Indian Valley and it all made sense. Again. I've

172
00:11:54.360 --> 00:11:58.720
been around, Okay, I camped my whole life, and we

173
00:11:58.759 --> 00:12:01.679
would even float down this cash creek for three day

174
00:12:01.759 --> 00:12:05.519
float trips, and you wouldn't see anyone, very remote, two

175
00:12:05.639 --> 00:12:11.279
million year old ancient canyon. So we were there with

176
00:12:11.320 --> 00:12:14.320
our guns always in fishing poles. We would catch trout,

177
00:12:14.399 --> 00:12:18.360
small mouth bass, catfish, and just have a good old time.

178
00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:22.480
So middle of the night two or three am, which

179
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:26.799
seems to be the witching hour for these things, we

180
00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:34.039
heard massive loud tree knocks. In hindsight, there were tree

181
00:12:34.080 --> 00:12:37.120
knocks that sounded like trees just smashing into each other.

182
00:12:37.799 --> 00:12:40.519
We jolted up out of our sleeping bags, looked at

183
00:12:40.519 --> 00:12:42.960
each other and naturally said, what the heck was that?

184
00:12:44.039 --> 00:12:49.279
Shortly thereafter, we heard the most blood curdling scream shrill.

185
00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:53.799
It was not a wounded animal. This thing had lungs

186
00:12:53.879 --> 00:12:58.480
and it was loud and scary. It wasn't that close.

187
00:12:58.759 --> 00:13:01.399
We have no idea. We stayed in our sleeping bag

188
00:13:02.519 --> 00:13:05.960
because we didn't think bigfoot sasquatch. We didn't know what

189
00:13:06.039 --> 00:13:11.000
to think. All these years later, I know what I

190
00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:14.960
heard and what I heard again, the tree knocks. Nothing

191
00:13:15.080 --> 00:13:21.080
knocks trees. Bears don't do it. Deers don't slam their

192
00:13:21.080 --> 00:13:25.559
ear antlers against a tree. At two am, this tree

193
00:13:25.639 --> 00:13:31.320
knock is what was undeniable, but that scream never heard

194
00:13:31.360 --> 00:13:36.480
anything before or since. Again, this is Upper Cash Creek,

195
00:13:37.159 --> 00:13:41.720
not far from Indian Valley Reservoir, so there's been other

196
00:13:42.159 --> 00:13:47.159
incidences up there. So funny you travel all over the

197
00:13:47.240 --> 00:13:51.440
place and you see nothing, you hear nothing, and then

198
00:13:51.480 --> 00:13:54.679
you go a two hour drive from your work and

199
00:13:54.759 --> 00:13:58.639
you run into this pretty crazy any rate, if you can,

200
00:14:00.399 --> 00:14:03.519
you know, share this, maybe other people have had heard

201
00:14:03.600 --> 00:14:08.159
things up in that area. Again, it was late nineteen eighties,

202
00:14:09.000 --> 00:14:14.360
So this is Pat from Novato, California. I grew up

203
00:14:14.360 --> 00:14:17.759
in Carol, Iowa, so hopefully that gives me a little

204
00:14:17.759 --> 00:14:22.120
credibility with a fellow Hawkeye. Thanks so much, Jeremiah. Love

205
00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:26.480
what you are doing. Love what you're doing. If I

206
00:14:26.559 --> 00:14:29.639
share this story with my family, they're gonna laugh at me,

207
00:14:30.840 --> 00:14:33.639
but I think I will because now it's all comes

208
00:14:33.720 --> 00:14:36.279
back loud and clear. Thank you, brother.

209
00:14:38.879 --> 00:14:42.240
I'll start with the first one because I have four.

210
00:14:43.440 --> 00:14:47.559
I was about eight years old. This was in Midway, Tennessee,

211
00:14:47.720 --> 00:14:52.120
in a cemetery, a very old cemetery that's not even

212
00:14:52.279 --> 00:14:56.639
used anymore, and I was looking at gravestones and I

213
00:14:56.679 --> 00:15:01.759
saw this little at that time. You know, I was eight,

214
00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:08.600
a little i'll just call it a man, but it

215
00:15:08.720 --> 00:15:12.399
had long hair hanging off of it and it was

216
00:15:12.480 --> 00:15:15.240
eating something, excuse me.

217
00:15:15.639 --> 00:15:16.039
And.

218
00:15:17.679 --> 00:15:21.519
So I walked up to it and was like, what, hey,

219
00:15:21.559 --> 00:15:24.679
what are you eating? And it didn't say anything. It

220
00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:28.440
just kept eating off the ground who was on all fours?

221
00:15:30.360 --> 00:15:32.440
And I kept talking to it, what are you eating?

222
00:15:32.559 --> 00:15:35.000
Can I have some? You know, a little eight year

223
00:15:35.039 --> 00:15:39.840
old kid, And it never said a thing, never made

224
00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:43.519
a sound, and all the time, and I'm sure there

225
00:15:43.559 --> 00:15:48.000
were full grown ones around somewhere, but I just saw

226
00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:49.960
that little one. And when I went back to the house.

227
00:15:51.039 --> 00:15:55.799
We were at a relative's house in Tennessee, and I

228
00:15:55.879 --> 00:15:58.519
went back and I was talking about it, and my

229
00:15:58.639 --> 00:16:01.720
dad looked at me, like, what are you talking about?

230
00:16:01.919 --> 00:16:05.399
And his cousin, who was sitting across the table, said, oh, yeah,

231
00:16:05.480 --> 00:16:09.879
it's a hairy man. Hairy man. What's a hairy man?

232
00:16:10.519 --> 00:16:12.639
He goes, We see him all the time. And he

233
00:16:12.720 --> 00:16:14.879
got up and left. He went back to see if

234
00:16:14.919 --> 00:16:18.000
it was still there. Of course it wasn't. But that

235
00:16:18.159 --> 00:16:25.120
was my first encounter with a bigfoot. And I see,

236
00:16:25.159 --> 00:16:27.559
I still have some time left, so I'll go into

237
00:16:27.799 --> 00:16:32.320
the next time I saw one it Actually it was

238
00:16:32.399 --> 00:16:35.759
just a couple of years later, and this was in Indiana,

239
00:16:38.399 --> 00:16:42.559
down by a river. A neighbor and I used to

240
00:16:42.639 --> 00:16:46.120
ride our horses back there, and we were on our

241
00:16:46.120 --> 00:16:51.840
horses again and they just stopped. They wouldn't go any farther, refused,

242
00:16:53.000 --> 00:16:55.080
and I looked at my friend and I was like,

243
00:16:55.200 --> 00:16:58.440
what is going on? And of course you can smell them.

244
00:16:58.519 --> 00:17:04.000
They smell so bad, and he goes, oh, no, it's back.

245
00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:09.240
And I was like, what, what's back? And he said,

246
00:17:09.359 --> 00:17:14.839
you know, a big hairy thing. The DNR is tracking it,

247
00:17:14.920 --> 00:17:19.160
so I have to go tell mister who he lived

248
00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:21.240
on their property. He goes, I have to go tell

249
00:17:21.279 --> 00:17:25.119
mister it's back so he can call DNR. Well, I said,

250
00:17:25.240 --> 00:17:27.960
I want to see it. So I got off my horse.

251
00:17:28.039 --> 00:17:32.200
My friend was holding my horse, and I went back

252
00:17:32.240 --> 00:17:37.920
there and there was this huge and I mean huge thing.

253
00:17:38.759 --> 00:17:42.839
At They had a it was a like a fishing camp,

254
00:17:43.359 --> 00:17:46.839
and they had a sink rigged up that pulled water

255
00:17:46.920 --> 00:17:50.039
from the river where they could clean fish. Had a

256
00:17:50.039 --> 00:17:53.079
little counter buy it, you know, and it was standing

257
00:17:53.119 --> 00:17:56.880
there looking through the dishes that were in the sink

258
00:17:57.000 --> 00:17:58.759
trying I guess it was trying to find something to

259
00:17:58.799 --> 00:18:02.359
eat or something. I don't know, and I do. I

260
00:18:02.440 --> 00:18:05.839
walked right up to it. I was standing like face

261
00:18:05.920 --> 00:18:07.799
to face. Well, I went face to face. It was

262
00:18:07.880 --> 00:18:14.519
much bigger than me, long brown hair, brown blondish mixed.

263
00:18:15.480 --> 00:18:21.039
And I looked at it, and I know it was like, hey, hey,

264
00:18:21.079 --> 00:18:23.200
what's going on. I didn't know what it was. It

265
00:18:23.240 --> 00:18:31.000
was nine, and it turned and looked at me, and I,

266
00:18:31.200 --> 00:18:33.880
of course, being nine, I didn't know at the time.

267
00:18:34.240 --> 00:18:36.759
You never show your teeth to a primate. And I

268
00:18:36.759 --> 00:18:39.039
looked at it and smiled, stuck my hand out and

269
00:18:39.079 --> 00:18:43.319
I said, hey, my name's you know, blah blah, and

270
00:18:43.359 --> 00:18:47.119
I smiled, showed my teeth, and that thing was gone

271
00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:50.160
in the blink of an eye. I couldn't find it.

272
00:18:50.240 --> 00:18:54.039
I looked around, kept looking around, didn't see anything. It

273
00:18:54.079 --> 00:18:58.400
was just gone. But that was my second encounter, and

274
00:18:58.440 --> 00:19:02.400
I've running out of time on this one, so I'm

275
00:19:02.400 --> 00:19:04.880
going to sign off. Thank you very much for letting

276
00:19:04.920 --> 00:19:05.359
me share.

277
00:19:08.359 --> 00:19:12.839
Hi, Dearmiah, my name is Mary. My encounter happened in

278
00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:17.039
North Idaho. I was camping with my sists back in

279
00:19:17.079 --> 00:19:20.640
two thousand and eight. We went to our favorite spot

280
00:19:20.759 --> 00:19:25.880
every summer to camp. This area is called Bumblebee Meadow.

281
00:19:27.200 --> 00:19:31.359
My tent is a small two person dome tent. My

282
00:19:31.519 --> 00:19:35.880
sister camped across from the fire pit area across from me,

283
00:19:36.279 --> 00:19:39.079
and she was on the opposite side of that corner

284
00:19:39.119 --> 00:19:42.400
of the meadow. I decided to head to bed to

285
00:19:42.480 --> 00:19:46.559
my dome tent. I was almost asleep when I heard

286
00:19:46.599 --> 00:19:52.160
something massive, massive, moving fast through the brush. I could

287
00:19:52.160 --> 00:19:56.039
hear the leaves going just so fast near the head

288
00:19:56.079 --> 00:19:56.759
of my tent.

289
00:19:58.000 --> 00:20:02.200
It stopped. It was on two legs. It sounded like

290
00:20:03.119 --> 00:20:07.599
its breathing was really loud and guttural. It sort of

291
00:20:07.680 --> 00:20:10.680
sounded like a mixture of a growl and a breath,

292
00:20:11.720 --> 00:20:16.000
and it kept doing that. I was terrified. I begin

293
00:20:16.160 --> 00:20:20.720
to pray silently, over and over in the name of Jesus,

294
00:20:20.839 --> 00:20:26.000
leave me alone. I was frozen for I don't know

295
00:20:26.039 --> 00:20:30.880
how long, but it seemed like a long time. I

296
00:20:31.000 --> 00:20:35.079
finally heard it moving through the brush away from my tent.

297
00:20:36.400 --> 00:20:39.720
I was so scared, Deeremiah, I will never forget this.

298
00:20:41.240 --> 00:20:44.839
And I couldn't sleep that night, and I as soon

299
00:20:44.880 --> 00:20:49.000
as daylight hit, man, I was out of there, all right.

300
00:20:49.160 --> 00:20:54.160
Thanks Jeremiah, Hi Jeremiah.

301
00:20:54.200 --> 00:21:02.839
This is Dan from Shelby and Blacksburg area. We did

302
00:21:02.920 --> 00:21:06.799
the interview a couple of weeks ago. Anyway, I had

303
00:21:06.839 --> 00:21:13.039
forgotten to get into some of the specifics about Shelby.

304
00:21:15.160 --> 00:21:20.160
I guess the whole thing started a year, probably about

305
00:21:21.279 --> 00:21:25.200
March of last year, in twenty twenty five. My brother

306
00:21:25.319 --> 00:21:28.839
was struggling with some problems at the time, and he

307
00:21:28.920 --> 00:21:30.799
was always going out to the woods to clear his head.

308
00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:34.640
And he said, he's going to show me a dark

309
00:21:34.720 --> 00:21:40.880
spell cast over Shelby, and so we went out into

310
00:21:40.880 --> 00:21:43.039
the woods and he was showing me all these blockages

311
00:21:43.119 --> 00:21:47.920
in the waterways and trash in the woods and all

312
00:21:47.960 --> 00:21:50.960
this kind of stuff. And we were going around out

313
00:21:51.000 --> 00:21:53.799
the backside of my neighborhood up the train tracks into

314
00:21:53.880 --> 00:21:59.480
the woods in these utility access roads, and when we

315
00:21:59.480 --> 00:22:01.519
were out there, we didn't really see anything at first.

316
00:22:01.720 --> 00:22:04.759
And then we went over to a graveyard across town

317
00:22:04.799 --> 00:22:08.160
where he was trying to show me a tombstone with

318
00:22:08.279 --> 00:22:11.359
the name on it that said self. Because he would

319
00:22:11.359 --> 00:22:14.839
always find these weird, weird patterns and weird strange things.

320
00:22:14.880 --> 00:22:18.599
So there was a tombstone in a graveyard across town

321
00:22:18.640 --> 00:22:19.319
that said self.

322
00:22:19.400 --> 00:22:19.640
On it.

323
00:22:19.680 --> 00:22:24.559
I guess that was the last name of somebody. But

324
00:22:25.839 --> 00:22:29.960
when we were walking back, it was just kind of

325
00:22:30.000 --> 00:22:31.880
like a strange night because there was a lot of

326
00:22:31.920 --> 00:22:35.160
people out. It was like the start of spring, like

327
00:22:35.279 --> 00:22:38.839
end of winter started spring, and there was just strange

328
00:22:38.880 --> 00:22:41.440
people out. It was late at night, probably like around

329
00:22:42.039 --> 00:22:45.200
ten thirty eleven o'clock, and when we were walking back,

330
00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:50.319
we didn't take We initially went into a neighborhood through

331
00:22:51.319 --> 00:22:55.599
a utility access lane through the woods, and when we

332
00:22:55.599 --> 00:22:58.519
were walking back, we were going past that utility access

333
00:22:58.599 --> 00:23:03.680
lane over by the o YMCA, and about it sounded

334
00:23:03.720 --> 00:23:07.799
like about fifty coyotes started howling all at once, and

335
00:23:07.920 --> 00:23:12.200
my brother screamed out, shut up demons, and then they

336
00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:15.759
all kind of like faded into the distance about one

337
00:23:15.839 --> 00:23:19.319
hundred yards within a matter of like three seconds. And

338
00:23:19.359 --> 00:23:25.279
as they faded away, the chatter scattered, the yips and

339
00:23:25.400 --> 00:23:31.599
hows scattered into like like laughter and then a whispering chatter.

340
00:23:34.119 --> 00:23:38.279
And then we were walking back up the street after

341
00:23:38.319 --> 00:23:42.319
that happened, and then probably three minutes later, when we

342
00:23:42.359 --> 00:23:46.920
got to that backside of the track, the pavement trails

343
00:23:47.559 --> 00:23:51.440
on the back side of the Dover YMCA where the

344
00:23:51.480 --> 00:23:58.039
soccer field is. There was this animal or I say animal,

345
00:23:58.079 --> 00:24:00.000
I mean, you know, I can't really identify what it is,

346
00:24:00.319 --> 00:24:04.799
but it it was over in the woods and it

347
00:24:04.839 --> 00:24:10.640
was like kind of like whispering and groaning to itself,

348
00:24:10.680 --> 00:24:16.720
was like you you know, some kind of like unintelligible gibberish.

349
00:24:17.119 --> 00:24:17.640
And then.

350
00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:22.519
My brother was like, yeah, do.

351
00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:22.880
You hear that?

352
00:24:23.599 --> 00:24:25.640
And uh and I was like yeah, yeah, yeah, here,

353
00:24:25.920 --> 00:24:27.960
like what is it? And then and then it it

354
00:24:28.079 --> 00:24:31.640
kind of like it was like and then uh, you know,

355
00:24:31.680 --> 00:24:36.599
there was a couple of footsteps. It was like and

356
00:24:36.680 --> 00:24:40.400
I was and I uh, you know, I was like, yeah,

357
00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:44.680
I uh, I got a knife, tough guy or something,

358
00:24:44.680 --> 00:24:46.880
you know, something like that to try to scare it off.

359
00:24:46.920 --> 00:24:47.400
And it was like.

360
00:24:50.640 --> 00:24:54.640
And uh and uh it might have made that noise first.

361
00:24:54.680 --> 00:24:57.599
And then I said something. And I had a headlamp

362
00:24:57.640 --> 00:25:02.480
on and it was two dim to see anything, so

363
00:25:02.519 --> 00:25:05.200
we couldn't make out what it was, but you know,

364
00:25:05.240 --> 00:25:08.200
it sounded like it was probably one hundred and fifty

365
00:25:08.400 --> 00:25:12.759
to two hundred pounds and somewhere within the range of

366
00:25:12.839 --> 00:25:16.079
five to six feet tall, just from what I heard.

367
00:25:16.680 --> 00:25:19.359
And then you know, with those strange noises, and then

368
00:25:19.400 --> 00:25:21.960
we kind of like walked on. There was a lot

369
00:25:22.039 --> 00:25:26.640
more strange stuff that was happening, but that was one

370
00:25:26.680 --> 00:25:29.839
of the main instances that I forgot to record on

371
00:25:29.880 --> 00:25:32.240
the initial interview.

372
00:25:33.920 --> 00:25:35.640
Thanks.

373
00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:41.039
Hey, Jerem I, this is Steve from Michigan. I just

374
00:25:41.079 --> 00:25:45.680
seen that you were looking for more encounters or more

375
00:25:46.359 --> 00:25:51.160
reports of Sasquatch. I've had three encounters here in Michigan,

376
00:25:52.200 --> 00:25:54.640
different parts of Michigan. My first one was up in

377
00:25:54.759 --> 00:25:59.839
central Michigan by the Ostable River, and my other two

378
00:25:59.839 --> 00:26:02.400
in counters were in southeastern Michigan.

379
00:26:02.200 --> 00:26:03.240
On the Raisin River.

380
00:26:05.119 --> 00:26:08.519
BE more than willing to talk to you about them. So, yeah,

381
00:26:08.640 --> 00:26:11.720
if you would like to touch base with me, I'm

382
00:26:11.759 --> 00:26:17.599
on Facebook. I don't receive emails right now. I'd have

383
00:26:17.680 --> 00:26:19.799
to I can check them every couple of weeks or

384
00:26:19.839 --> 00:26:22.000
every week or two because I don't have Wi Fi

385
00:26:22.039 --> 00:26:24.559
where I live right now. But I'd be more than

386
00:26:24.599 --> 00:26:27.960
willing to go more in depth into those encounters and

387
00:26:30.039 --> 00:26:31.880
be more than willing to talk to you about other stuff.

388
00:26:31.920 --> 00:26:34.319
I know you don't really do, like UFO or weird

389
00:26:34.400 --> 00:26:37.319
stuff like that, but yeah, I've had me and my

390
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:41.759
friend I have had a ton of strange experiences here

391
00:26:41.759 --> 00:26:47.240
in southeastern Michigan. So yeah, be more than welcome to

392
00:26:47.319 --> 00:26:51.920
talk with you, and if you need the encounters wherever,

393
00:26:52.079 --> 00:26:53.440
just get a hold of me or send me an

394
00:26:53.440 --> 00:26:56.440
email and i'll hopefully i'll eventually be able to check it.

395
00:26:56.920 --> 00:26:59.920
Thanks man, Hey, Jeremy.

396
00:27:00.119 --> 00:27:03.960
Yeah, this is Anita Allen from southwest Virginia checking in

397
00:27:04.880 --> 00:27:07.279
and an update from my area.

398
00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:07.519
Now.

399
00:27:07.559 --> 00:27:12.640
I haven't been back since early this year when they

400
00:27:12.680 --> 00:27:17.559
did the controlled burn that was absolutely necessary following the

401
00:27:17.599 --> 00:27:23.759
devastation of the spring storms. But when I was last

402
00:27:23.920 --> 00:27:27.160
up there, I was spending some time sitting on one

403
00:27:27.160 --> 00:27:31.160
of the rocks and I had some strange encounters. The

404
00:27:31.200 --> 00:27:38.079
first was a woman who at first I heard lots

405
00:27:38.079 --> 00:27:41.720
of ladies talking like a social group, and I wasn't

406
00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:43.680
sure what was going on. And I looked down the

407
00:27:43.720 --> 00:27:46.519
trail about a quarter mile and I saw a woman

408
00:27:46.599 --> 00:27:49.400
walking and I thought she was listening to a podcast,

409
00:27:50.200 --> 00:27:53.400
but when she got to me, it was her and

410
00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:58.480
her little docs and a what do you call it

411
00:27:59.039 --> 00:28:03.880
a radio in her backpack that she was playing. So

412
00:28:06.799 --> 00:28:13.039
I was surprised because normally dogs love me, but for

413
00:28:13.079 --> 00:28:18.200
some reason, this dog began acting panicky and he wouldn't

414
00:28:18.240 --> 00:28:20.480
come past the rock that I was sitting on, which

415
00:28:20.519 --> 00:28:23.200
was on the side of the trail. I had some

416
00:28:23.359 --> 00:28:27.000
crochet out because I find that when you sit quietly

417
00:28:27.640 --> 00:28:29.200
and you do something.

418
00:28:29.200 --> 00:28:30.079
They get interested.

419
00:28:31.599 --> 00:28:36.880
And she said, oh, he's just afraid of strangers, which

420
00:28:37.039 --> 00:28:41.359
again very strange. Dogs usually will drag their owners to me.

421
00:28:42.440 --> 00:28:45.240
And again he wasn't exactly looking at me. He was

422
00:28:45.240 --> 00:28:48.200
looking more up the trail, and I did look up

423
00:28:48.240 --> 00:28:50.400
the trail, but I didn't see anything right away, and

424
00:28:50.440 --> 00:28:53.359
I didn't want to be obvious, so I talked with

425
00:28:53.400 --> 00:28:55.400
her for a minute and talked to the dog for

426
00:28:55.440 --> 00:28:57.599
a minute, and she was able to get him to

427
00:28:57.799 --> 00:29:01.880
continue down the trail, And though he was reluctant, it

428
00:29:01.920 --> 00:29:05.079
didn't seem like his issue was passing me. It was

429
00:29:05.160 --> 00:29:08.599
more something ahead. But he calmed down, so I think

430
00:29:08.720 --> 00:29:12.400
something may have been ahead. I'm not sure, but I

431
00:29:12.440 --> 00:29:15.319
sat there for a while continuing what I was doing.

432
00:29:16.359 --> 00:29:21.279
I didn't hear anything with her that I would take

433
00:29:21.440 --> 00:29:25.839
as her radio playing. There was nothing that was multiple voices,

434
00:29:27.240 --> 00:29:32.079
so what was playing was just a newscast, so I

435
00:29:32.079 --> 00:29:35.480
don't know what it was. It sounded like several women

436
00:29:35.720 --> 00:29:38.079
down there. I expected a group of at least four

437
00:29:38.160 --> 00:29:44.400
walking up. So she passed, and I listened to her

438
00:29:44.480 --> 00:29:48.079
go up over the trail and around the way and

439
00:29:48.160 --> 00:29:52.799
out of earshot, and continued with my crochet, and then

440
00:29:53.200 --> 00:29:58.759
about again about a quarter mile ahead of me. This

441
00:29:58.799 --> 00:30:01.240
is over a whole lot of dead fall from the storms,

442
00:30:02.039 --> 00:30:07.039
and back towards the edge of the hill that I

443
00:30:07.119 --> 00:30:09.519
was sitting on where it starts to slope down towards

444
00:30:09.559 --> 00:30:13.440
some of the pasture lands. All of a sudden, I

445
00:30:13.480 --> 00:30:18.559
heard what I can only describe as either a goose

446
00:30:19.519 --> 00:30:23.559
like a Canadian goose, taking off out of water, or

447
00:30:23.640 --> 00:30:29.599
maybe a large jowl wet mouthed dog shaking its face.

448
00:30:30.480 --> 00:30:36.119
It was a very loud, wet, slappy sound, you know.

449
00:30:36.160 --> 00:30:40.839
And I don't know what could have made that noise,

450
00:30:40.960 --> 00:30:45.279
because there's no such place for a bird to be

451
00:30:45.359 --> 00:30:48.519
flapping wet wings in front of me, and there was

452
00:30:48.559 --> 00:30:53.279
certainly no dogs on the trail that fit that description.

453
00:30:55.599 --> 00:31:01.759
As you re, Mana, you interviewed me probably about I

454
00:31:01.759 --> 00:31:05.880
don't know, maybe ten months ago, maybe it was a year.

455
00:31:05.920 --> 00:31:08.319
I can't remember what episode it was. I saw a

456
00:31:08.319 --> 00:31:13.400
big foot about fifteen feet from me in Long Beach, Washington,

457
00:31:14.720 --> 00:31:20.480
staring in the window, you know, since then. Probably about

458
00:31:20.759 --> 00:31:23.039
two or three months ago, I was out fishing on

459
00:31:23.119 --> 00:31:28.039
a highway between Sticata and Detroit, they call it the

460
00:31:28.039 --> 00:31:29.359
Bigfoot Highway.

461
00:31:30.119 --> 00:31:30.440
And.

462
00:31:33.119 --> 00:31:39.440
A big boulder rolled down off the hill there and

463
00:31:39.519 --> 00:31:41.720
landed in the river right across from me where I

464
00:31:41.759 --> 00:31:46.759
was fishing. The boulder was rectank They're not rectangular square

465
00:31:46.759 --> 00:31:49.200
in shape, so I'm not sure how a boulder by

466
00:31:49.240 --> 00:31:53.039
itself that shape would start rolling at eight, you know,

467
00:31:53.200 --> 00:31:53.920
for any reason.

468
00:31:56.599 --> 00:31:58.559
And then one time when I got out of my car,

469
00:31:58.680 --> 00:32:05.519
I heard a woo something like that funny noise just

470
00:32:05.559 --> 00:32:07.799
as I got out of the car. And then the

471
00:32:07.839 --> 00:32:14.160
third time, another boulder came rolling downhill a little farther

472
00:32:14.240 --> 00:32:18.839
down the river from me, maybe two hundred yards. So

473
00:32:21.279 --> 00:32:27.359
rocks and odd noises could be coincidence, may not be,

474
00:32:27.480 --> 00:32:31.039
who knows. That's the only thing that's changed.

475
00:32:33.000 --> 00:32:38.640
Lately. I have heard more stories though about Long Beach location.

476
00:32:38.839 --> 00:32:41.279
There's I guess there's a family up there that lives

477
00:32:41.920 --> 00:32:45.000
the stone's throw from that house I was at that

478
00:32:45.079 --> 00:32:51.000
have been communicating and having relationships with a Bigfoot family

479
00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:55.720
for more than I think twenty years, at least ten

480
00:32:55.799 --> 00:33:01.960
years on Louis Lake. That from another bigfoot reporter who

481
00:33:02.000 --> 00:33:06.960
interviewed me. Anyway, I hope you're well, thanks for doing

482
00:33:07.000 --> 00:33:12.519
your work, and yeah, maybe we'll talk again sometime.

483
00:33:15.440 --> 00:33:15.720
Hello.

484
00:33:15.960 --> 00:33:19.839
My name is Craig. I have twenty five years or

485
00:33:19.920 --> 00:33:28.079
more of time in the mountains since nineteen sixty. I

486
00:33:28.400 --> 00:33:32.519
have had numerous experiences that I know are Bigfoot, and

487
00:33:32.599 --> 00:33:36.599
I have seen Bigfoot twice, once in nineteen eighty two

488
00:33:37.279 --> 00:33:42.559
and once in twenty twenty one for sure, giant nine

489
00:33:42.599 --> 00:33:48.359
foot tall hairy man in Northeast Oregon in the Blue Mountains.

490
00:33:50.920 --> 00:33:54.000
I'll tell you my story. It takes a couple of hours.

491
00:33:54.039 --> 00:34:00.440
I've had a jillion experiences out in the woods, so

492
00:34:00.519 --> 00:34:03.559
I'll talk to you anyway. It's all I can think

493
00:34:03.599 --> 00:34:04.039
of now.

494
00:34:04.039 --> 00:34:04.400
Thanks.

495
00:34:04.759 --> 00:34:11.719
By the first time I've ever had a big foot

496
00:34:11.800 --> 00:34:13.440
encounter wasn't necessarily mine.

497
00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:15.719
It was a friend of mine and we were out

498
00:34:15.760 --> 00:34:19.039
on a fishing trip and we left him at the bridge. Well,

499
00:34:19.079 --> 00:34:23.679
we went down to set lines, and when we came

500
00:34:23.719 --> 00:34:27.360
back we found him sitting in a car, his own car,

501
00:34:28.320 --> 00:34:31.360
about a couple hundred yards up the roads from the

502
00:34:31.400 --> 00:34:35.639
bridge we left him at. The windows were all fogged up,

503
00:34:35.639 --> 00:34:36.840
so we can tell he's been in there for a

504
00:34:36.840 --> 00:34:39.840
little while. We get up to the car and this

505
00:34:39.880 --> 00:34:43.440
is a big guy, he's six to four Native American descent,

506
00:34:43.719 --> 00:34:49.320
you know. But he's in the backseat of his own

507
00:34:49.360 --> 00:34:53.440
car with all four doors locked, and it took us

508
00:34:53.440 --> 00:34:55.800
a minute to convince him to unlock the doors to

509
00:34:55.920 --> 00:35:01.360
let us in because he was just terrified. Apparently, while

510
00:35:01.360 --> 00:35:09.400
he was down there fishing something he said he wouldn't

511
00:35:09.400 --> 00:35:11.440
ever say exactly what it was, but the way he

512
00:35:11.480 --> 00:35:16.480
described it could only be a bigfoot something. He said,

513
00:35:16.519 --> 00:35:21.400
something ran across the creek at him. He said it

514
00:35:21.480 --> 00:35:23.960
looked like it was running on the water while the

515
00:35:24.000 --> 00:35:26.559
water was only a couple of feet deep, so it's

516
00:35:26.599 --> 00:35:29.519
something that knees or three foot high. You know, it

517
00:35:30.639 --> 00:35:34.320
probably would have been like it were just waiting. But

518
00:35:34.400 --> 00:35:37.519
he said it ran across the creek at him, straight

519
00:35:37.599 --> 00:35:39.840
at him, and then turned and went off into the

520
00:35:41.199 --> 00:35:45.159
little cane thicket there beside him and just scared him.

521
00:35:45.559 --> 00:35:47.480
Scared him back enough he left his fish and pole

522
00:35:47.519 --> 00:35:48.840
on the side of the bank and went and got

523
00:35:48.880 --> 00:35:50.559
in the back seat of his own car, locked the

524
00:35:50.599 --> 00:35:53.159
doors and set there until we got there, and he

525
00:35:53.159 --> 00:35:55.800
would not get out of the car and would not

526
00:35:55.920 --> 00:35:56.840
go back to the creek.

527
00:35:57.679 --> 00:36:01.920
Hi, Jeremiah, this is Kelly Jones. I've had a couple

528
00:36:02.119 --> 00:36:09.280
of encounters now, both of them have been with expedition groups.

529
00:36:10.559 --> 00:36:16.039
My first was in October of last year with Charlie.

530
00:36:15.800 --> 00:36:19.519
Raymond and the k B R O. We were in.

531
00:36:19.599 --> 00:36:25.159
A on some private land east in eastern Kentucky. And

532
00:36:26.960 --> 00:36:34.320
the first night we were we were visited, which was

533
00:36:34.360 --> 00:36:41.280
the very first, my very first encounter. I uh, I

534
00:36:41.440 --> 00:36:43.639
was I was trying to wake up about it was

535
00:36:43.679 --> 00:36:46.519
about we found out later about one thirty in the morning,

536
00:36:46.840 --> 00:36:50.480
and uh the uh.

537
00:36:52.000 --> 00:36:52.719
The dogs.

538
00:36:52.880 --> 00:36:55.280
The owner had some dogs on the property and they

539
00:36:55.280 --> 00:36:59.159
were going crazy, which was what what roused me in

540
00:36:59.199 --> 00:37:01.760
the first place. And as I was trying to wake up,

541
00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:06.440
I was hearing some noises that sounded like, uh, someone

542
00:37:06.519 --> 00:37:10.800
beating on the on a plastic or a rubber garbage can.

543
00:37:11.760 --> 00:37:16.519
And when I finally woke up, the dogs had quieted

544
00:37:16.559 --> 00:37:22.519
down and I could hear footsteps around my tent and

545
00:37:23.000 --> 00:37:26.000
no one we had all gone to bed, probably an

546
00:37:26.000 --> 00:37:31.679
hour prior, and uh so they come into the camp

547
00:37:31.679 --> 00:37:34.079
and were walking. We could I could hear clearly the

548
00:37:34.440 --> 00:37:41.000
crunching under the feet walking around on the property, and

549
00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:43.679
we found out the next day that they had also

550
00:37:44.280 --> 00:37:47.119
we were flipping up cooler lids for some of the

551
00:37:47.119 --> 00:37:52.639
folks behind me, and uh so that was the first night.

552
00:37:54.639 --> 00:37:58.679
The second night, well really it was. We had gone

553
00:37:58.719 --> 00:38:00.679
to bed later the second night because we were all

554
00:38:00.719 --> 00:38:06.079
out in different areas and most everybody got back by

555
00:38:06.119 --> 00:38:09.719
about twelve thirty or so, but we didn't start having

556
00:38:09.800 --> 00:38:12.119
an activity until about four.

557
00:38:13.119 --> 00:38:14.599
Some time after four in the morning.

558
00:38:16.360 --> 00:38:19.880
The dogs woke me up this time, and I had

559
00:38:19.920 --> 00:38:27.000
audio equipment running that night, and I could hear once

560
00:38:27.000 --> 00:38:32.159
the dogs quieted down, I could hear the steps again

561
00:38:32.559 --> 00:38:36.440
around the tent. And I actually have two recordings from

562
00:38:36.519 --> 00:38:40.679
that night. The first one because I saw my clock.

563
00:38:40.760 --> 00:38:42.880
It was probably about a quarter to five.

564
00:38:42.719 --> 00:38:46.840
In the morning, and one of them was standing close

565
00:38:46.880 --> 00:38:49.119
to my tent, close enough for me to catch recording

566
00:38:49.719 --> 00:38:55.559
of flatulence from one of them. At first I thought

567
00:38:55.599 --> 00:38:57.840
it was a grunt, but an analyst listened to it

568
00:38:57.840 --> 00:39:00.519
and said, no, that's one of the that's one of

569
00:39:00.559 --> 00:39:03.519
them farting near your tent. So I've actually got a

570
00:39:03.559 --> 00:39:07.440
recording of that. And also it was about ten minutes later.

571
00:39:09.400 --> 00:39:14.800
I've got a recording of a howl from one of them,

572
00:39:15.039 --> 00:39:19.239
and it was extremely loud, much louder than any of

573
00:39:19.239 --> 00:39:22.159
the dogs, so I know it was not It was

574
00:39:22.199 --> 00:39:26.199
not a dog. I've had several other people listen to

575
00:39:26.280 --> 00:39:32.159
it and confirm the same thing. So they were walking around.

576
00:39:32.239 --> 00:39:34.000
Of course I didn't I didn't leave the tent. I

577
00:39:34.079 --> 00:39:37.159
laid and listened for a while, and then they all

578
00:39:37.239 --> 00:39:42.960
left at that point. Later that same day, it was

579
00:39:42.960 --> 00:39:46.480
about two thirty in the afternoon, we were standing there.

580
00:39:46.480 --> 00:39:49.480
The couple that was in a tent behind me in

581
00:39:49.559 --> 00:39:52.920
the woods was packing up, was getting ready to pack

582
00:39:53.000 --> 00:39:57.079
up to leave, and the wife was standing at the

583
00:39:57.199 --> 00:39:57.840
end of her.

584
00:39:59.320 --> 00:39:59.639
Truck.

585
00:40:00.119 --> 00:40:04.000
It was next to my car, and she was faced

586
00:40:04.039 --> 00:40:07.840
away from the woods, kind of faced towards me, and

587
00:40:07.880 --> 00:40:10.000
I was at my I was charging something, so I

588
00:40:10.039 --> 00:40:11.480
was standing at the back of my car.

589
00:40:12.280 --> 00:40:15.559
And she all of a sudden, she exclaimed, she said owl.

590
00:40:17.679 --> 00:40:24.639
Well she uh. She yelled for her husband and he came.

591
00:40:24.760 --> 00:40:26.840
He was packing up at the tent, and he came

592
00:40:26.920 --> 00:40:31.039
running over, and another gentleman came running over, and she said,

593
00:40:31.039 --> 00:40:34.320
something hit me in my back. And when we when

594
00:40:34.360 --> 00:40:37.400
he looked at her back, she had a big red

595
00:40:37.400 --> 00:40:40.000
welt on her back and when they looked on the

596
00:40:40.039 --> 00:40:43.400
ground for anything, there was a big, big onion, like

597
00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:48.119
a normal sized Vdelia onion. Uh that something in the

598
00:40:48.159 --> 00:40:50.400
woods had thrown at her and hit her in the

599
00:40:50.440 --> 00:40:51.119
back with.

600
00:40:53.159 --> 00:40:54.360
So those two.

601
00:40:55.559 --> 00:40:57.800
So to continue my story, those two gentlemen went running

602
00:40:57.800 --> 00:41:02.800
off into the woods and they could hear two individuals

603
00:41:03.079 --> 00:41:07.239
running away from the camp site at that time. They

604
00:41:07.320 --> 00:41:09.119
never did get a visual, but they could They could

605
00:41:09.119 --> 00:41:13.760
hear them clearly running away, so they had been I guess,

606
00:41:13.760 --> 00:41:14.519
toying with us.

607
00:41:14.519 --> 00:41:17.000
We also had reports that.

608
00:41:17.039 --> 00:41:23.280
Same night of them scratching on the sides of Charlie's

609
00:41:24.119 --> 00:41:31.079
trailer and also urinating near one of the other tents nearby,

610
00:41:32.719 --> 00:41:36.480
so they were they were pretty active that night. I

611
00:41:36.519 --> 00:41:40.239
have a more recent encounter. I was with Sheila and

612
00:41:40.280 --> 00:41:44.960
Scott Granger that you're familiar with with squatch fitters, and

613
00:41:45.000 --> 00:41:50.920
we were we were in uh North Georgia in the

614
00:41:50.920 --> 00:41:54.719
Blue Ridge Mountains, camping and they took us to a

615
00:41:54.760 --> 00:41:58.880
site on top of a nearby mountain and we were

616
00:41:58.880 --> 00:42:10.079
able to capture at least one on a thermal. When

617
00:42:10.440 --> 00:42:12.679
Scott was leading the group, there were eight of us

618
00:42:14.000 --> 00:42:16.360
and as soon as we were trying to determine what

619
00:42:16.360 --> 00:42:18.159
we were going to do. We went around up we

620
00:42:18.199 --> 00:42:20.079
went on a service road that was up at the

621
00:42:20.079 --> 00:42:23.440
top of the mountain. When we went down that started

622
00:42:23.440 --> 00:42:25.679
to go down that service road. Just as soon as

623
00:42:25.719 --> 00:42:29.119
we had crossed the barrier to the service road, Scott

624
00:42:29.159 --> 00:42:33.119
stopped and right in front of us two was a

625
00:42:33.119 --> 00:42:36.159
set of eyes. So we all saw it on the

626
00:42:36.159 --> 00:42:41.159
thermal and it was it was crouched down, apparently just

627
00:42:41.239 --> 00:42:45.280
watching us at the time. It stood up and walked

628
00:42:45.280 --> 00:42:52.400
off at that point, and so Scott then turned down

629
00:42:52.400 --> 00:42:56.159
the road, and as soon as he did that, after

630
00:42:56.199 --> 00:42:59.880
a few steps, we started to see one tree peeking

631
00:43:00.840 --> 00:43:03.599
with two more sets of eyes. We're not sure if

632
00:43:03.639 --> 00:43:06.400
it was the same individual or not. It might have been,

633
00:43:07.840 --> 00:43:11.639
but it was. It kept moving it, you know, right

634
00:43:11.719 --> 00:43:14.920
to left. It would peek out from the right, and

635
00:43:14.960 --> 00:43:17.960
then we'd lose it and peek out from the left.

636
00:43:18.000 --> 00:43:19.039
And it was.

637
00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:23.559
There for quite a while, and then it moved and

638
00:43:23.639 --> 00:43:28.039
didn't walk away from us completely. It just walked to

639
00:43:29.079 --> 00:43:31.639
another set of trees a little further down the service

640
00:43:31.760 --> 00:43:38.719
road and started doing the same thing. And then Scott

641
00:43:38.800 --> 00:43:41.079
had seen it in his he had looked up from

642
00:43:41.360 --> 00:43:45.400
the camera and he could see it in his headlamp.

643
00:43:45.960 --> 00:43:48.519
He could see the actual creature walking away with its

644
00:43:48.559 --> 00:43:50.960
back to us. It went to the other tree. It

645
00:43:51.000 --> 00:43:54.199
did the same thing for a while, and then it

646
00:43:54.239 --> 00:43:57.880
walked across the road, and at that point most of us.

647
00:43:57.800 --> 00:44:00.880
Saw saw it walking across the road.

648
00:44:00.880 --> 00:44:04.760
We could see a full sized creature walking across the road.

649
00:44:05.480 --> 00:44:08.360
It walked to another set of trees and starts doing

650
00:44:08.400 --> 00:44:13.719
the same thing, and then I don't it did that

651
00:44:13.800 --> 00:44:17.960
a few times, peeked out between and around the tree,

652
00:44:18.840 --> 00:44:23.239
and then it must have been crouching down the entire

653
00:44:23.280 --> 00:44:26.119
time we've seen it previously, because then it stood up,

654
00:44:27.320 --> 00:44:30.360
and when it raised itself up, it was fully above

655
00:44:30.480 --> 00:44:34.599
kind of a fork in the trees. And when we

656
00:44:34.639 --> 00:44:37.760
measured the next day it was it was approximately nine

657
00:44:37.800 --> 00:44:41.480
feet eight and a half feet to nine feet where

658
00:44:41.519 --> 00:44:45.519
we saw the set of eyes. Scott walked further down

659
00:44:45.519 --> 00:44:50.199
the trail and he could he could clearly see it

660
00:44:50.320 --> 00:44:56.280
and it actually Scott stood there for some time and

661
00:44:56.639 --> 00:44:59.119
watched it as it blinked at him. It blinked at him,

662
00:44:59.599 --> 00:45:01.960
he said, it linked at him three times, and then

663
00:45:02.079 --> 00:45:05.199
he advised as he said you know, this thing's this

664
00:45:05.199 --> 00:45:10.079
thing's not moving away from us, and so.

665
00:45:11.559 --> 00:45:13.079
We may be able to we may just.

666
00:45:13.000 --> 00:45:15.119
Need to back off, which is what we did at

667
00:45:15.159 --> 00:45:19.000
that point, and then it disappeared off into the woods.

668
00:45:20.239 --> 00:45:21.440
But I'd be glad.

669
00:45:21.119 --> 00:45:26.440
To share more information if you feel like you want

670
00:45:26.440 --> 00:45:31.719
to pursue this. The The other thing I'll say is

671
00:45:31.719 --> 00:45:34.679
that there was a deer that was further down on

672
00:45:34.760 --> 00:45:37.880
the side of this service road, further down the trail.

673
00:45:38.440 --> 00:45:40.239
So we're not sure if it was staying there to

674
00:45:40.800 --> 00:45:45.519
protect its prey or if it was just curious enough

675
00:45:45.559 --> 00:45:47.079
to watch us that long, but it was there for

676
00:45:47.159 --> 00:45:47.800
quite a while.

677
00:45:52.719 --> 00:46:02.159
Okay, So my second big foot encounter was close to Astro, Missouri,

678
00:46:02.719 --> 00:46:04.199
just outside of Springfield.

679
00:46:05.039 --> 00:46:08.320
A friend of mine and I were out looking for

680
00:46:08.480 --> 00:46:13.679
something he had thrown into ditch and lost. Well, there

681
00:46:13.760 --> 00:46:17.679
was a big storm coming and we wound up pretty

682
00:46:17.760 --> 00:46:24.320
much driving through a tornado. Once the storm was gone,

683
00:46:25.320 --> 00:46:27.199
we came to a forking road and there was a

684
00:46:27.239 --> 00:46:30.199
limb laying across one side of the fork, and even

685
00:46:30.239 --> 00:46:33.840
though we weren't going that way, my friend stopped and

686
00:46:33.920 --> 00:46:37.119
went to pull the limb out of the way so

687
00:46:37.199 --> 00:46:40.440
the other road was clear. Well, he parked with his

688
00:46:40.559 --> 00:46:43.599
headlights pointing in the middle of the way between the

689
00:46:43.599 --> 00:46:47.519
two roads, and while he was out moving the tree,

690
00:46:47.599 --> 00:46:51.000
I look up in front of the truck and these

691
00:46:51.039 --> 00:47:00.519
two chestnut brown creatures are standing there looking directly. And

692
00:47:00.559 --> 00:47:03.920
it wasn't bears. It wasn't a bear.

693
00:47:04.000 --> 00:47:04.400
Space.

694
00:47:05.480 --> 00:47:07.760
Yeah, it looked like a big puts. Mean, there was

695
00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:12.480
a female and a young one, and the little one

696
00:47:13.079 --> 00:47:18.159
duck down under the bushes. Well, the big ones stood

697
00:47:18.159 --> 00:47:22.159
there looking at me. And about that time, my friend

698
00:47:22.440 --> 00:47:26.599
hits my window and tries to open my door, trying

699
00:47:26.639 --> 00:47:31.719
to get in my side of the truck, and he said,

700
00:47:31.719 --> 00:47:32.800
did you see that?

701
00:47:33.599 --> 00:47:34.159
Let me in?

702
00:47:34.480 --> 00:47:38.079
I said, we'll go around. So he runs around the

703
00:47:38.119 --> 00:47:40.679
truck and gets in the driver's side, which I don't

704
00:47:40.719 --> 00:47:42.239
know why I tried to get into my side he

705
00:47:42.719 --> 00:47:45.840
was driving. He runs around the truck and gets in

706
00:47:45.880 --> 00:47:47.559
his side of the truck and he's hollering at me.

707
00:47:47.599 --> 00:47:51.079
Locked the door, locked door. Did you see that? I said, yeah?

708
00:47:51.119 --> 00:47:53.079
He said, what was that? I said, well, what do

709
00:47:53.199 --> 00:47:56.559
you think it was? Well all hechab was what was that?

710
00:47:56.719 --> 00:47:59.440
What was that? And he never would I kept saying,

711
00:47:59.480 --> 00:48:01.519
I kept passing, what do you think it was because

712
00:48:01.519 --> 00:48:04.960
I didn't want to say it out loud either, And

713
00:48:06.880 --> 00:48:10.840
we finally backs up and we'd drive off, and both

714
00:48:10.880 --> 00:48:14.719
of us are just, I mean on edge, you know,

715
00:48:15.000 --> 00:48:17.960
just all bouncing out around the cabin the drug and

716
00:48:18.079 --> 00:48:20.440
just all excited and yelling and all earn what was that?

717
00:48:22.800 --> 00:48:25.639
Oh, this story is about Bigfoot or what I think

718
00:48:25.840 --> 00:48:27.800
or what I believed to be a big Foot encounter

719
00:48:27.920 --> 00:48:31.239
for myself. So back in twenty seventeen, I lived in

720
00:48:31.320 --> 00:48:33.599
a campsite. I did have a house, but that house

721
00:48:33.760 --> 00:48:37.000
was so haunted I refused to live there. After I

722
00:48:37.039 --> 00:48:39.239
had already paid six months, I was unable to get

723
00:48:39.239 --> 00:48:41.760
a refund, so I basically just stayed at the campsite

724
00:48:41.840 --> 00:48:47.559
to get some good rest. Anyway, So I had two tents.

725
00:48:47.639 --> 00:48:49.920
One tent was like for my cookie utensils and all

726
00:48:49.960 --> 00:48:53.039
of my clothing, and then the other tent was for

727
00:48:53.239 --> 00:48:56.000
just me sleeping with my blankets on the floor, you know,

728
00:48:56.079 --> 00:49:00.079
of course, and that's it. But this one night, I

729
00:49:00.159 --> 00:49:02.239
had worked so hard. I had two jobs, so I

730
00:49:02.360 --> 00:49:04.320
kind of just went to the morning job, went to

731
00:49:04.400 --> 00:49:06.400
the night job, and then just wanted to rack out

732
00:49:06.400 --> 00:49:09.719
as soon as I got wherever I was going to sleep, right. So,

733
00:49:10.760 --> 00:49:14.639
this particular night that it happened, I was super tired,

734
00:49:14.719 --> 00:49:16.079
and I did not want to sleep in the tent

735
00:49:16.159 --> 00:49:18.039
because there was a big spider that had gone into

736
00:49:18.079 --> 00:49:20.559
my blankets and it was you know, it just had

737
00:49:20.559 --> 00:49:22.639
a big butt, So I was afraid. I knew that

738
00:49:22.760 --> 00:49:24.800
was like a nasty spider. I didn't want to get bit.

739
00:49:25.159 --> 00:49:27.960
I ended up sleeping in the car. So as soon

740
00:49:28.000 --> 00:49:30.119
as I started getting ready to go to sleep, put

741
00:49:30.159 --> 00:49:33.400
my blankets and everything, I started samelling something and it

742
00:49:33.480 --> 00:49:36.480
smelled like trash. I don't know if anybody has ever

743
00:49:36.639 --> 00:49:40.000
smelled a raccoon when they passed by, and it kind

744
00:49:40.039 --> 00:49:43.760
of has that really nasty, trashy scent. So that's exactly

745
00:49:43.840 --> 00:49:45.719
what I thought it was a raccoon, because every now

746
00:49:45.719 --> 00:49:47.480
and then, you know, you'll see a raccoon out in

747
00:49:47.519 --> 00:49:50.400
the boonies, you know, anywhere, because if there's trash somewhere,

748
00:49:50.440 --> 00:49:51.920
there's food somewhere, they're gonna find it.

749
00:49:52.039 --> 00:49:54.559
Right, I thought it was a raccoon.

750
00:49:55.559 --> 00:49:58.480
I didn't hear any little footsteps or anything, you know,

751
00:49:58.559 --> 00:50:01.239
I just kept smelling it, so like, okay, fine, raccoon,

752
00:50:01.400 --> 00:50:04.559
it's okay. And then I started feeling the van shaking.

753
00:50:05.320 --> 00:50:08.039
And I had a little twenty twelve Master five, so

754
00:50:08.199 --> 00:50:09.719
you can kind of look that up and kind of

755
00:50:09.760 --> 00:50:11.559
see how big, and you know it was you just

756
00:50:11.639 --> 00:50:14.119
lay the seats down and you'd be really comfortable back there,

757
00:50:14.639 --> 00:50:18.880
or at least I was anyway, So I just smelled

758
00:50:18.880 --> 00:50:21.079
the SAMEO and I just kept smelling it just smelled

759
00:50:21.119 --> 00:50:22.639
like trash, and I kept getting whips of it, like

760
00:50:22.719 --> 00:50:25.599
it was super close to the van or like you know,

761
00:50:26.480 --> 00:50:30.559
usually the van kept like you know, in the winter,

762
00:50:30.920 --> 00:50:32.599
sometimes I would sleep out there and it would go

763
00:50:32.760 --> 00:50:35.480
like thirty two degrees sometimes eight degrees, or you know,

764
00:50:35.599 --> 00:50:37.760
it was got a little cold in Washington sometimes and

765
00:50:38.199 --> 00:50:40.920
you know, the heat stayed in the van as well

766
00:50:40.920 --> 00:50:42.920
as when it was hot at night. You know, in

767
00:50:42.960 --> 00:50:44.880
the summers it would stay cool.

768
00:50:45.880 --> 00:50:48.679
So anyway, I don't.

769
00:50:48.480 --> 00:50:50.320
Know how I was smelling it, and I know I

770
00:50:50.360 --> 00:50:52.239
didn't have trash in the van. You know, I just

771
00:50:52.360 --> 00:50:55.199
kind of figured something's out there and it just stinks,

772
00:50:55.239 --> 00:50:59.119
you know, that raccoon's right under the car or something. Anyway,

773
00:50:59.400 --> 00:51:02.320
but would shake it. So somebody was shaking the van

774
00:51:02.440 --> 00:51:05.000
or something was shaking the van. First it started like

775
00:51:05.119 --> 00:51:07.760
really slowly, like just barely, kind of rocky made as

776
00:51:07.760 --> 00:51:09.199
sleep is what it felt like. And then it just

777
00:51:09.519 --> 00:51:13.840
went really really fast right thereafter, and so I just screamed,

778
00:51:14.039 --> 00:51:16.079
leave me the f alone, or I'm gonna stab you,

779
00:51:16.400 --> 00:51:18.960
because I kind of thought maybe it's one of the

780
00:51:19.039 --> 00:51:21.679
other campers, you know, just running around, but I didn't

781
00:51:21.679 --> 00:51:27.239
hear any footsteps, right, So anyway, it stopped, and then

782
00:51:27.760 --> 00:51:29.760
you know, when I was told enough, it started again.

783
00:51:30.719 --> 00:51:32.840
So then I opened the van door and I look

784
00:51:32.920 --> 00:51:38.320
outside and there's nobody there, nothing there. There's not even animals, nothing, nothing,

785
00:51:38.639 --> 00:51:41.159
and it's super quiet. So I close the van, lock

786
00:51:41.199 --> 00:51:44.360
it up, go back to sleep, and then it started again,

787
00:51:44.440 --> 00:51:46.639
shake it really bad, and I was just like, chinaw,

788
00:51:46.719 --> 00:51:48.960
you know, let me go out there, let me see

789
00:51:49.000 --> 00:51:50.360
what the heck's going on. So I'm looking through all

790
00:51:50.360 --> 00:51:52.559
the windows. The windows were really dark tinted, but I

791
00:51:52.719 --> 00:51:54.400
was able to see out. I know, nobody was able

792
00:51:54.440 --> 00:51:56.760
to see in. And so as I was looking out

793
00:51:56.920 --> 00:51:59.599
like it just I mean, there was this face right

794
00:52:00.360 --> 00:52:02.719
up against the van, like it was looking straight.

795
00:52:02.519 --> 00:52:03.079
Back at me.

796
00:52:04.480 --> 00:52:06.199
And that's what I think was the Bigfoot.

797
00:52:06.599 --> 00:52:07.199
I really do.

798
00:52:08.280 --> 00:52:11.320
The weird thing is is that I didn't hear any foodstays,

799
00:52:11.320 --> 00:52:12.920
I didn't hear any leaves, do nothing. But as soon

800
00:52:12.960 --> 00:52:14.760
as I saw that base, I started honking the horn

801
00:52:15.079 --> 00:52:17.639
and I turned on the van and I just booked it.

802
00:52:18.039 --> 00:52:19.679
The next day I came back for all my stuff,

803
00:52:21.000 --> 00:52:23.639
and that's it. I never see that campsite again. I

804
00:52:23.719 --> 00:52:27.519
have a lot of stories about other campsites and the

805
00:52:27.639 --> 00:52:29.679
house that I lived in. I have pictures of things

806
00:52:29.760 --> 00:52:33.079
that happened to me there, and you know, demons and stu.

807
00:52:33.199 --> 00:52:36.440
I mean like real footage of different stuff that was crazy,

808
00:52:36.519 --> 00:52:38.960
that really happened. But I tried to upload all this

809
00:52:39.079 --> 00:52:41.400
to the Amazon KDP because I was going to write

810
00:52:41.400 --> 00:52:43.000
a book about all of it and put it all together,

811
00:52:43.079 --> 00:52:45.679
but it just wouldn't let me. So that's my story,

812
00:52:45.760 --> 00:52:47.639
and I hope you enjoyed it, but bye, have a

813
00:52:47.679 --> 00:52:48.000
good day.

814
00:52:48.239 --> 00:52:51.199
Have you ever heard all the accounts of bigfoot activity

815
00:52:51.320 --> 00:52:54.480
around Oakridge, Oregon, and you think to yourself, man, I

816
00:52:54.519 --> 00:52:57.360
would love to get out in those words and experience

817
00:52:57.400 --> 00:53:01.880
it for myself. Well guess what this year you can.

818
00:53:02.599 --> 00:53:05.519
If this is interesting to you, stay tuned because it's

819
00:53:05.599 --> 00:53:10.440
pretty cool. Sasquatch Summer Fest is coming up. July tenth

820
00:53:10.599 --> 00:53:13.719
through the eleventh, twenty twenty six. It's going to be

821
00:53:14.280 --> 00:53:18.760
even better than the previous years. You may know Jason

822
00:53:18.800 --> 00:53:23.719
Kenzie from his documentary series Searching for Sasquatch. Well, this

823
00:53:23.960 --> 00:53:27.760
year you can not only go to the festival, but

824
00:53:27.960 --> 00:53:35.679
you can also sign up for a track deep in

825
00:53:35.760 --> 00:53:39.960
the wild forest outside of Oakridge with Jason Kenzie to

826
00:53:40.239 --> 00:53:43.760
the Bigfoot spots to look for Bigfoot. There's only eight

827
00:53:43.800 --> 00:53:48.000
spots to sign up for this, and yes, this will

828
00:53:48.039 --> 00:53:51.719
also be filmed for the next chapter in his documentary series,

829
00:53:51.719 --> 00:53:54.440
which is Searching for Sasquatch. This is a once in

help with the costs there. Appreciate that, Priscilla. Before we

838
00:54:31.760 --> 00:54:34.199
wrap this episode, I want to say something directly to

839
00:54:34.280 --> 00:54:37.599
a very specific group of listeners. If you're in the military,

840
00:54:38.079 --> 00:54:41.360
any branch or forces, and if you've seen something that

841
00:54:41.480 --> 00:54:44.320
no one can explain, or if you're a National park

842
00:54:44.400 --> 00:54:47.559
ranger or forestryt worker who's been told to stay quiet,

843
00:54:48.360 --> 00:54:51.559
if you're a pilot who's seen something strange down on

844
00:54:51.639 --> 00:54:54.960
the ground, or if you're with the FBI a federal agency,

845
00:54:55.239 --> 00:54:58.360
or working intelligence and you stumbled upon something you're not

846
00:54:58.519 --> 00:55:01.679
allowed to talk about. And if you're a firefighter, paramedic,

847
00:55:01.880 --> 00:55:05.119
or search and rescue responder who's heard screams or found

848
00:55:05.159 --> 00:55:08.119
tracks that didn't make sense. If you're in the logging

849
00:55:08.199 --> 00:55:12.000
industry on a remote oil field, or a trucker with

850
00:55:12.159 --> 00:55:15.960
government contracts and you've had something happen that you've never

851
00:55:16.039 --> 00:55:19.880
told a soul. And if you're a biologist, a wildlife specialist,

852
00:55:20.119 --> 00:55:23.480
or a field researcher under contract who has found evidence

853
00:55:23.639 --> 00:55:27.239
you're not allowed to report. If you're a pastor, a missionary,

854
00:55:27.400 --> 00:55:30.519
or someone on a spiritual retreat and you saw something

855
00:55:30.599 --> 00:55:34.239
that shook your faith, or if you work in the shadows, CIA,

856
00:55:34.599 --> 00:55:37.920
NSA or anything with clearance and you've seen what the

857
00:55:38.000 --> 00:55:42.599
public hasn't, then I want to talk to you. Even

858
00:55:42.639 --> 00:55:47.679
if it's anonymous, you can reach me at Bigfoot Society

859
00:55:47.760 --> 00:55:50.719
at gmail dot com. The world needs to hear what

860
00:55:50.880 --> 00:55:54.719
you've been forced to carry alone. And you're not alone.

861
00:55:55.639 --> 00:56:00.639

us that the world is bigger and stranger than we think,

865
00:56:09.800 --> 00:56:12.000

00:56:12.079 --> 00:56:15.280
tree line. If you enjoyed this episode, please be sure
