Part 2: Gentle Giant Reveals Herself to Sandi Russo in Davie County, North Carolina

Sandi Russo returns for Part 2 to share the moment that changed everything. After years of strange activity around her off-grid property in Davie County, North Carolina, she finally comes face-to-face with a towering female Bigfoot. What she describes is one of the most detailed visual encounters ever shared on Bigfoot Society, from the creature's expression and appearance to the unforgettable moment their eyes met across the field.


Sandi also shares new accounts of interactions between the Bigfoot family, her dogs, neighboring witnesses, unexplained gifts, and additional encounters that continue to unfold around her property. This conversation offers a rare look into a long-term relationship built over years of trust and observation, making it one of the most remarkable habituation accounts featured on the show.


If you've ever wondered what happens after the first strange knock in the woods, this episode takes you deeper than almost any eyewitness interview we've released.

00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:02.839
You're listening to Big for Society and I'm Jeremiah Byron.

2
00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:05.639
In this show, we go beyond the campfire stories to

3
00:00:05.679 --> 00:00:08.400
bring you first hand encounters from people who say they've

4
00:00:08.439 --> 00:00:12.759
seen something impossible. From backwoods trails and remote mountain haulers

5
00:00:12.800 --> 00:00:16.719
to 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 --> 00:00:21.320
These are the.

8
00:00:21.320 --> 00:00:24.800
Voices of the people who've lived it. To settle in,

9
00:00:24.879 --> 00:00:28.359
because today you'll hear another account that just might change

10
00:00:28.359 --> 00:00:31.239
the way you see the woods forever. So stay with us.

11
00:00:31.559 --> 00:00:34.280
Please keep Jeremiah in your prayers as he continues his

12
00:00:34.280 --> 00:00:38.679
fight against cancer. For more updates about his medical journey,

please go to the carring Bridge link in the show notes.

14
00:00:42.560 --> 00:00:45.320
Thank you, all right, Big for Society get the privilege

15
00:00:45.320 --> 00:00:49.079
of having Sandy Russo back on. You just heard from

16
00:00:49.119 --> 00:00:52.799
her yesterday and it's about the only episode that has

17
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:57.119
ever ended on a cliffhanger like that, so we've got

18
00:00:57.439 --> 00:01:01.439
there's definitely more of what Sandy has experience. We're going

19
00:01:01.520 --> 00:01:04.840
to get that in a minute. If you are just

20
00:01:04.920 --> 00:01:07.359
hearing Sandy for the first time, I would really recommend

21
00:01:07.400 --> 00:01:10.760
to go back and listen to the previous day's episode

22
00:01:10.799 --> 00:01:14.480
because it's about an hour and a half of the

23
00:01:14.519 --> 00:01:18.640
background that you need to know about what's going on. Also,

24
00:01:19.319 --> 00:01:23.519
Sandy has written her encounters in a book called My

25
00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:25.760
Journey with a big Foot named Kai, and we'll have

26
00:01:25.879 --> 00:01:28.719
the link to that in the show notes, so you

27
00:01:28.760 --> 00:01:31.359
can pick that up to read it for your shell

28
00:01:31.640 --> 00:01:34.640
for yourself. But welcome back to the show, Sandy, how.

29
00:01:34.480 --> 00:01:35.079
Are you today?

30
00:01:36.319 --> 00:01:36.680
Thank you?

31
00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:41.359
I'm doing great, awesome, And just for I think one

32
00:01:41.400 --> 00:01:44.519
more thing. This is taking place down in Davy County,

33
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:49.799
North Carolina, for a reminder, But Sandy, you were giving

34
00:01:49.840 --> 00:01:53.599
me a little summary of where we're headed next, and

35
00:01:54.239 --> 00:01:56.239
I was thinking to myself, I was like, oh, I

36
00:01:56.439 --> 00:01:59.120
was wondering if stuff like that was going to be

37
00:01:59.159 --> 00:02:02.079
part and so this is going to get extremely interesting.

38
00:02:02.680 --> 00:02:06.959
So you know, feel free to to take us right

39
00:02:07.000 --> 00:02:10.960
back into it, and you know, starting with with what

40
00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:13.960
was next on your list of events there.

41
00:02:16.159 --> 00:02:20.520
So I always wondered. I always here that you know,

42
00:02:20.599 --> 00:02:23.240
they eat people's animals or kill them or whatever, and

43
00:02:23.280 --> 00:02:25.840
I was always putting it out there, please don't hurt

44
00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:29.759
my animals, Please don't hurt my animals. But then we

45
00:02:29.800 --> 00:02:33.280
would hear knocks and stuff and the dogs would run

46
00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:36.159
towards it. So I was like, I wonder if they're friends,

47
00:02:38.919 --> 00:02:43.919
but I didn't know at that point. So when we

48
00:02:44.000 --> 00:02:47.159
first started getting there, we had a stray that was

49
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:52.080
here and we would feed him, and his bulls started

50
00:02:52.120 --> 00:02:57.639
disappearing and we couldn't find them. We'd go running around

51
00:02:57.639 --> 00:03:01.120
the property looking for a bowl and sometimes we'd find it.

52
00:03:01.400 --> 00:03:05.960
Sometimes we'd find it under the structure, and then one

53
00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:09.759
time it was totally gone and disappeared for two weeks,

54
00:03:10.319 --> 00:03:16.599
and then we found it in the neighborhood under somebody's mailbox.

55
00:03:17.599 --> 00:03:20.199
Now he didn't bring it there. I don't know how

56
00:03:20.240 --> 00:03:25.759
that got there. But what started happening was the dogs,

57
00:03:26.400 --> 00:03:30.039
because we ended up having three. After a while, would

58
00:03:30.120 --> 00:03:33.039
their bull would disappear, and then they would show up

59
00:03:33.360 --> 00:03:36.840
with a deer leg and this wouldn't This would be

60
00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:39.520
a hoof the bottom of the leg and then a

61
00:03:39.520 --> 00:03:41.120
little bit of the top of the leg would meat

62
00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:46.120
on it. And if we didn't know, we saw that

63
00:03:46.159 --> 00:03:48.280
we could look at their balls gone. It was like

64
00:03:48.360 --> 00:03:52.400
they were trading with the Bigfoot, like they would say, here,

65
00:03:52.520 --> 00:03:55.719
take my food, I want to have a deer leg.

66
00:03:57.039 --> 00:04:02.879
And this happened three or four times, and so I

67
00:04:02.919 --> 00:04:05.800
started putting it out there. I said, are you friends

68
00:04:05.879 --> 00:04:12.879
with my dogs? Because they seemed to be okay with

69
00:04:13.560 --> 00:04:17.040
them being around It was weird. And one day I

70
00:04:17.079 --> 00:04:21.120
walked into the cabin and my eyes blackened and I

71
00:04:22.040 --> 00:04:27.759
saw a vision of the juvenile Excuby Doo walking behind

72
00:04:27.759 --> 00:04:32.839
the house with Goldie in lead, and Goldie was looking

73
00:04:32.920 --> 00:04:36.600
back like are you coming? And she looked like a

74
00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:43.480
chihuaha next to him. And after I saw that, I

75
00:04:43.519 --> 00:04:51.360
was like, Okay, they're friends, no problem. So then one

76
00:04:51.439 --> 00:04:59.720
day we were sitting on the porch and we heard

77
00:04:59.759 --> 00:05:04.120
not in the woods, and when the dogs hear them,

78
00:05:04.480 --> 00:05:08.560
they go running towards them, and it's like they're going

79
00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:12.360
to meet a friend. Their tails are wagon, they're happy,

80
00:05:12.959 --> 00:05:16.800
and they look right towards them. So they have seen

81
00:05:16.839 --> 00:05:20.879
them many times, is what I'm guessing. But one day

82
00:05:20.920 --> 00:05:25.399
we were sitting on the porch and Sarah, the black one,

83
00:05:25.519 --> 00:05:31.439
comes back and she's got a leaf tucked into her collar.

84
00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:36.800
Now it wasn't actually tucked into the collar, it was

85
00:05:37.879 --> 00:05:41.720
pressed around the clip, which I did send you a

86
00:05:41.759 --> 00:05:46.360
picture of that, Jeremiah. It was the cutest thing. She

87
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:50.519
looked like a little princess and it made us laugh.

88
00:05:50.639 --> 00:05:55.399
And so I think it was just a high from them.

89
00:05:55.920 --> 00:06:01.120
We're still here because I'm always asking them for signs,

90
00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:08.759
you know, of them being around, and sometimes they're good

91
00:06:09.399 --> 00:06:13.839
and sometimes they're not because they have a sense of humor.

92
00:06:15.319 --> 00:06:19.399
But in the winter, one time, I was going into

93
00:06:19.480 --> 00:06:23.720
the bathroom and I could see because we have this

94
00:06:23.759 --> 00:06:28.480
little slot it's a no's no door, so when you're

95
00:06:28.519 --> 00:06:31.519
sitting you can actually look out the window. And I'm

96
00:06:31.519 --> 00:06:36.879
looking out the window and I see a furry tree.

97
00:06:37.120 --> 00:06:41.600
It was gray, and I was like, huh, I don't

98
00:06:41.639 --> 00:06:46.000
remember a tree that big being there. And I'm like what.

99
00:06:46.439 --> 00:06:51.160
So two seconds later, there's a big whack behind me

100
00:06:53.160 --> 00:06:58.879
and I was like, Okay, I guess you're fine. Scared me,

101
00:06:58.920 --> 00:07:03.720
I was in the right place. And then the next sign,

102
00:07:03.720 --> 00:07:07.800
and then I in the spring, because we don't hear

103
00:07:07.879 --> 00:07:10.240
from them as much as we did in the first year.

104
00:07:10.560 --> 00:07:14.279
I mean, we had so much activity here. I mean

105
00:07:14.439 --> 00:07:17.560
every day for a month they sat with us at night,

106
00:07:19.120 --> 00:07:23.319
But so we don't really sit out anymore in the

107
00:07:23.319 --> 00:07:27.720
middle of our yard. So I said to Steve, you know,

108
00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:30.319
I've been asking them. I don't know what's going on.

109
00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:34.480
I hope they're okay. And I get up in the

110
00:07:34.519 --> 00:07:37.759
morning and I go to feed the chickens and there

111
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:40.279
is next to a log. We had had a big

112
00:07:40.360 --> 00:07:43.399
log that we had we were drying out next to

113
00:07:43.439 --> 00:07:46.639
the chicken coop, and right next to that was a

114
00:07:46.680 --> 00:07:52.959
big pile up pop not it looked like human, but

115
00:07:53.040 --> 00:07:58.720
it was bigger. And the pile was bigger than cows.

116
00:07:58.920 --> 00:08:05.160
I swear, huge, huge, plot And I was like, why

117
00:08:05.240 --> 00:08:08.560
why would they do that? He goes, weren't you asking

118
00:08:08.639 --> 00:08:15.480
for a sign? He starts not that, But I was like, okay,

119
00:08:16.680 --> 00:08:19.800
now that was a nice, good job, thanks for the sign.

120
00:08:23.279 --> 00:08:27.800
But there was also there is a when I was

121
00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:30.360
writing my book, I was going to the library a

122
00:08:30.360 --> 00:08:34.480
lot because I love Offgrad and I was I'd write

123
00:08:34.480 --> 00:08:37.960
my book in you know, like journal form in my phone,

124
00:08:38.759 --> 00:08:42.080
and then I go to the library and type it out.

125
00:08:43.679 --> 00:08:46.399
And I was there one did and an elder gentleman

126
00:08:46.519 --> 00:08:49.440
asked me if I could help him. So I had

127
00:08:49.759 --> 00:08:53.120
my book up and I went to his computer to

128
00:08:53.159 --> 00:08:55.279
help him. He sat in mind, we started reading my book,

129
00:08:55.799 --> 00:08:59.799
didn't say anything, so I helped him. Then we're getting

130
00:08:59.840 --> 00:09:04.440
ready to leave and I we went outside and he

131
00:09:04.759 --> 00:09:08.799
leans into me and he says, they're on my property too.

132
00:09:10.759 --> 00:09:14.639
I said what. He goes, I had bigfoot too, I said,

133
00:09:14.679 --> 00:09:19.480
you do, and he starts describing the ones that he

134
00:09:19.559 --> 00:09:24.080
has on his property, which were the same as what

135
00:09:24.120 --> 00:09:31.360
I have. I was like, oh my goodness. So he

136
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:33.440
he said there was a black one, but I had

137
00:09:33.679 --> 00:09:38.159
never seen a black one. Well, I mean, sometimes they

138
00:09:38.279 --> 00:09:41.320
just tell me in my mind what colors they are

139
00:09:41.399 --> 00:09:44.360
or whatever, or I see visions of them. So I

140
00:09:44.440 --> 00:09:49.080
knew Oda Allie was was up around, and I knew

141
00:09:49.120 --> 00:09:54.279
Kai was gray. I knew his son was gray, but

142
00:09:54.399 --> 00:09:56.960
I didn't really know the colors of the other ones.

143
00:09:58.960 --> 00:10:03.399
And the the man said that he had a gray,

144
00:10:03.600 --> 00:10:08.480
a black, and some brand ones too, and I was like, oh,

145
00:10:08.519 --> 00:10:12.240
that is so weird. And the female is his connection.

146
00:10:13.919 --> 00:10:16.399
She will actually bang on his door and he goes

147
00:10:16.440 --> 00:10:21.399
and puts food out for and I was like, oh

148
00:10:21.440 --> 00:10:24.960
my gosh, are you kidding me? And he's like as

149
00:10:24.960 --> 00:10:27.679
a crow flies, he's like two miles away from me.

150
00:10:29.440 --> 00:10:31.480
I was like, oh my goodness, I said, I wonder

151
00:10:31.480 --> 00:10:34.440
if said the same ones he goes. I think they

152
00:10:34.480 --> 00:10:39.799
are and he said that he believes they live near him.

153
00:10:40.639 --> 00:10:42.440
I said, I know, they don't live near me. There's

154
00:10:42.480 --> 00:10:48.879
no where, there's nowhere. And so but he we ended

155
00:10:48.960 --> 00:10:52.799
up becoming friends and he tells me things. On occasion,

156
00:10:53.000 --> 00:10:59.679
he actually saw them hunting and they made this little trap,

157
00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:03.279
so they have a little hole in the fence where

158
00:11:03.320 --> 00:11:06.480
the deer go through. And he said that he was

159
00:11:06.559 --> 00:11:09.600
driving down the road and he said that the deer

160
00:11:09.879 --> 00:11:14.000
walked into that space. He said, and then she rose

161
00:11:15.320 --> 00:11:20.320
and then she went limp, and he said that he

162
00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:28.799
was like he couldn't move, he was stuck where he was.

163
00:11:29.360 --> 00:11:32.639
He said it was like a couple of minutes before

164
00:11:32.639 --> 00:11:35.679
he came to be able to move again, and when

165
00:11:35.679 --> 00:11:39.279
he did, they were gone. And I said, that is

166
00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:43.320
so weird. So but the reason I tell you that

167
00:11:43.480 --> 00:11:47.000
is because it was a few months later that I

168
00:11:47.039 --> 00:11:51.720
had a dream and in my dream was a black

169
00:11:52.080 --> 00:11:56.799
sasquatch like introducing himself, I guess, but I knew his

170
00:11:56.879 --> 00:11:59.360
name was Blackie soon as I saw him. I knew it.

171
00:12:00.120 --> 00:12:02.200
I don't know how I knew it, but I knew it.

172
00:12:03.279 --> 00:12:07.000
So he is with them, and he's a short haired

173
00:12:08.120 --> 00:12:10.960
The rest of them are have longer like Odially has

174
00:12:12.039 --> 00:12:15.360
like a medium hair. Kay's got long hair, and so

175
00:12:15.480 --> 00:12:22.639
does his son. So I have met four of them,

176
00:12:23.799 --> 00:12:28.240
but I know there's more because I've seen them. So

177
00:12:28.480 --> 00:12:32.000
but that is that is that, And now I would

178
00:12:32.159 --> 00:12:39.159
like to move on to my actual encounter. Sure, well,

179
00:12:39.240 --> 00:12:44.879
I was. We got up in the morning and is

180
00:12:45.000 --> 00:12:50.480
very quiet yard and there was no dogs, and I

181
00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:54.639
was like, where the hell are the dogs? So we're

182
00:12:54.639 --> 00:12:58.799
calling them. Usually they call him, they didn't, and we

183
00:12:58.799 --> 00:13:01.000
were drinking coffee, so I said, let's have our coffee

184
00:13:01.039 --> 00:13:04.440
and then we'll look. So Steve went up to the

185
00:13:04.440 --> 00:13:08.720
neighbors and their dogs were gone too, So I said, well,

186
00:13:08.799 --> 00:13:11.759
they're having a party in the field somewhere. I said,

187
00:13:11.799 --> 00:13:14.759
I'll take a ride down there. I will walk down there.

188
00:13:16.360 --> 00:13:20.360
So I'm yelling for Tucker because just as I was

189
00:13:20.399 --> 00:13:24.159
starting to leave, here comes Goldie and Sarah and I'm like,

190
00:13:24.240 --> 00:13:27.679
still the neighbors dogs are gone and Tucker's gone. So

191
00:13:27.720 --> 00:13:31.039
I'm walking down on me and Tucker. Tucker. I get

192
00:13:31.080 --> 00:13:34.320
down to the bottom of the road which leads into

193
00:13:34.360 --> 00:13:38.759
the field, and I looked to my right and there

194
00:13:38.840 --> 00:13:44.799
is the biggest black dog I have ever seen. It

195
00:13:45.039 --> 00:13:48.759
was As soon as I got down there, the energy

196
00:13:48.879 --> 00:13:53.919
changed and everything was in like slow motion, and all

197
00:13:53.919 --> 00:13:55.720
of a sudden, I felt like I had a drink

198
00:13:55.720 --> 00:14:01.919
in me. I was so relaxed, so easy, and I'm

199
00:14:02.000 --> 00:14:05.559
looking at this dog and it turns into like slow

200
00:14:05.759 --> 00:14:11.639
motion and for a quick minute, it was like I

201
00:14:11.720 --> 00:14:19.360
had telescope eyes. Did you ever see Twilight? Oh? Sure,

202
00:14:20.080 --> 00:14:22.480
there is a part where Bellow wakes up and everything

203
00:14:22.679 --> 00:14:28.519
is micro what do you call it magnified? That's what

204
00:14:28.559 --> 00:14:33.240
it looked like. I was looking. I could see follicle.

205
00:14:33.320 --> 00:14:36.480
So that's how close I got. And I'm looking at

206
00:14:36.519 --> 00:14:42.159
this dog and it's got the longest tail and it's

207
00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:44.480
I don't think I've ever seen a tail that long.

208
00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:48.360
But it was as big as a pony. It was huge,

209
00:14:49.759 --> 00:14:55.559
and it's galloping. It wasn't It wasn't like a regular dog.

210
00:14:57.480 --> 00:14:59.919
But I guess if I had to guess what kind

211
00:15:00.240 --> 00:15:03.720
a dog kind of looked like, would be the dog

212
00:15:03.879 --> 00:15:09.120
Daddy's dogs, the black ones. It is like a black

213
00:15:09.159 --> 00:15:17.600
shirt German shepherd. It was way bigger. And I'm looking

214
00:15:17.639 --> 00:15:20.120
at this dog and I was like, and I look

215
00:15:20.120 --> 00:15:25.360
away from the dog, and to my right there's brown

216
00:15:25.440 --> 00:15:29.639
cows is what I saw. And I'm like a little neighbor,

217
00:15:30.159 --> 00:15:32.320
the farmer descient at brown cows. He has black cows.

218
00:15:34.440 --> 00:15:37.039
But I was so interested in the dog. I turned

219
00:15:37.080 --> 00:15:41.240
from what I thought was the cows and I'm just

220
00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:47.440
watching him and he's just going galloping away, goes into

221
00:15:47.440 --> 00:15:51.120
the high grass and goes into the woods, and I

222
00:15:51.159 --> 00:15:57.399
was like, what is that. I'm yelling, stead, come see

223
00:15:57.440 --> 00:16:03.200
this dog. And I turn to where those brown calls

224
00:16:03.200 --> 00:16:13.039
are and I'm really looking at them, and slowly I

225
00:16:13.200 --> 00:16:22.080
notice that they're not cows. And there was two and

226
00:16:22.159 --> 00:16:27.039
they were both crouched. One was kind of sitting on

227
00:16:27.080 --> 00:16:31.360
the haunches kind of thing, and the other one was

228
00:16:31.519 --> 00:16:35.320
had her hands in front of her and she was

229
00:16:35.360 --> 00:16:40.679
just kind of leaning forward. And I was like, what

230
00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:45.399
am I looking at a cow? Is it a cot?

231
00:16:46.960 --> 00:16:49.559
And I really all of a sudden, the magnifying glass

232
00:16:49.559 --> 00:16:55.200
comes back and I zoom into her face.

233
00:16:57.360 --> 00:16:57.759
And this.

234
00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:05.519
Bigfoot has the most kindest eyes. She's got like a

235
00:17:05.519 --> 00:17:10.160
little button nose that was wide. She had a orange

236
00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:17.400
tuff of hair on her conical head, and her eyes

237
00:17:17.920 --> 00:17:21.960
were golden and I could see her eyelashes. This is

238
00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:26.759
how close I got in my eyes, and she had

239
00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:31.599
like smiley eyes, like she was just like you're seeing me,

240
00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:37.960
and I just kind of go down her face and

241
00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:43.079
she's smiling and she didn't move a muscle. She let

242
00:17:43.119 --> 00:17:47.519
me look and she had so much joy in her

243
00:17:47.559 --> 00:17:51.400
face that I finally saw her. Now, I did not

244
00:17:52.400 --> 00:17:55.680
besides seeing the color of the other one, I did

245
00:17:55.680 --> 00:18:00.440
not really see her because I was concentrating on who

246
00:18:00.480 --> 00:18:05.559
I know was oh Allie, and she was so beautiful.

247
00:18:07.240 --> 00:18:12.920
It was just the coolest moment of my life to

248
00:18:13.079 --> 00:18:17.920
actually see her, and the rest of her was like

249
00:18:18.079 --> 00:18:27.680
a burgundy chocolate, gorgeous color. And I turned away from

250
00:18:27.720 --> 00:18:32.799
them for just a second to see where ste was

251
00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:37.440
and I looked back and They're gone. It was just

252
00:18:38.920 --> 00:18:44.720
the coolest thing I'd ever experienced. And when I think back,

253
00:18:45.559 --> 00:18:49.200
I'd asked them to give me calming energies when I

254
00:18:49.240 --> 00:18:52.200
saw them, and to please show themselves in the field,

255
00:18:52.279 --> 00:18:57.079
and that's exactly what they did and I saw them. Now,

256
00:18:57.119 --> 00:18:59.400
what was she doing down there? I didn't know at

257
00:18:59.440 --> 00:19:04.480
that time. I didn't know actor because the next day

258
00:19:05.680 --> 00:19:11.640
I decided to go down there and see if I

259
00:19:11.640 --> 00:19:14.920
could find footprints or anything of signs that they were

260
00:19:14.920 --> 00:19:20.799
actually there and you have to go under a fence,

261
00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:24.319
under like a barberre fence, and then down a little hill.

262
00:19:25.119 --> 00:19:27.799
And when I got down there, the grass was over

263
00:19:27.880 --> 00:19:32.880
my head. It was tall and I could see her,

264
00:19:34.079 --> 00:19:38.680
so she was big. But there's a little book down there,

265
00:19:38.720 --> 00:19:43.440
and I was walking towards it because there's mud there,

266
00:19:43.480 --> 00:19:47.319
and I thought maybe i'll see some footprints, so I

267
00:19:47.440 --> 00:19:50.880
made it. I'm almost out of the grass and I

268
00:19:50.960 --> 00:19:55.640
hear running in the brook, and of course you're free.

269
00:19:55.680 --> 00:20:02.319
You see, like, what is that? And a million things

270
00:20:02.359 --> 00:20:06.519
go through your head. Now is it the dogs? Now?

271
00:20:06.599 --> 00:20:11.000
It sounds like a little kid running in there? And

272
00:20:11.039 --> 00:20:14.079
I was like, what is going on? And I'm like,

273
00:20:14.519 --> 00:20:17.160
do I just stand here? Because they're running towards me?

274
00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:23.039
And I'm like, do I say something? And then I

275
00:20:23.079 --> 00:20:24.599
thought about it, and I was like this could turn

276
00:20:24.680 --> 00:20:30.720
real ugly, and I said, hey, I'm out here. The

277
00:20:30.799 --> 00:20:36.799
brakes instantly went on. I stopped running, and I was like,

278
00:20:37.240 --> 00:20:40.200
I'm sorry. I didn't mean to scare you. I just

279
00:20:40.240 --> 00:20:44.039
wanted you to know I was here. So I got

280
00:20:44.079 --> 00:20:48.480
brave to stick my head into the brook. Because the

281
00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:53.000
brook has brush on both sides, so it's like a tunnel,

282
00:20:53.240 --> 00:20:57.160
so you can't see anybody in there unless you go

283
00:20:57.279 --> 00:21:01.359
to the cowpath and look down it. And I peeked

284
00:21:01.400 --> 00:21:05.880
in and I didn't see anything. So I was like, okay, well,

285
00:21:06.759 --> 00:21:09.960
I have a feeling that it's a small one, and

286
00:21:10.000 --> 00:21:11.920
I think I need to get out of here because

287
00:21:12.559 --> 00:21:14.720
who knows what's going to happen. So I'm backing down

288
00:21:14.759 --> 00:21:20.640
and I'm like, I'm leaving, You're okay, I'm okay backing

289
00:21:20.759 --> 00:21:24.400
up there, And when I got far enough, I turned

290
00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:28.880
around and walked out. Instantly, I knew this is where

291
00:21:29.079 --> 00:21:32.880
Oda Allie brings her baby to cool off because nobody

292
00:21:32.880 --> 00:21:37.079
can see you nick and play in there. And then

293
00:21:37.079 --> 00:21:39.599
I never went back down there again because I knew

294
00:21:39.759 --> 00:21:43.720
that's what she did and I didn't want to bother them.

295
00:21:43.920 --> 00:21:51.640
So that was the last time that I went down there.

296
00:21:51.680 --> 00:21:54.640
But I had Steve go down there and his head

297
00:21:54.720 --> 00:21:57.640
was just popping out of the grass and I saw

298
00:21:58.680 --> 00:22:03.599
from her elbows up she was squatting. So's she's pretty big.

299
00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:08.160
So but that is I think you've got it all now, Jeremia.

300
00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:09.839
That is incredible.

301
00:22:10.000 --> 00:22:14.519
How tall would you estimate that she is then, because

302
00:22:14.559 --> 00:22:17.279
you have like the height of the grass.

303
00:22:19.039 --> 00:22:26.640
Well, I Steve is six three, I think, and his

304
00:22:26.720 --> 00:22:28.880
head was just sticking out. So I don't know how

305
00:22:28.960 --> 00:22:33.400
tall a head is, okay, but then beyond I don't

306
00:22:33.440 --> 00:22:36.240
know how tall she is, but she's definitely over eight beat,

307
00:22:36.279 --> 00:22:36.599
I think.

308
00:22:36.759 --> 00:22:41.279
Okay, yeah, sure, Wow, that is incredible how you asked

309
00:22:41.279 --> 00:22:44.160
for those certain things and that's what they did that

310
00:22:44.160 --> 00:22:46.160
that's probably one of the coolest parts of that. But

311
00:22:46.279 --> 00:22:47.559
it's just fascinating.

312
00:22:48.160 --> 00:22:52.400
I was very lucky not to have batting counter. You know,

313
00:22:52.440 --> 00:22:55.559
I hear a lot of them on your store. But

314
00:22:55.680 --> 00:22:58.880
some of the things I hear, I realize that they're

315
00:22:58.960 --> 00:23:04.240
joking like this. Big foots have sense humors, and you know,

316
00:23:04.440 --> 00:23:07.079
people are afraid of it. But and that's why I

317
00:23:07.119 --> 00:23:09.640
feel the need to just comment in there. And I said,

318
00:23:09.960 --> 00:23:17.519
I just think they're joking with you, gotcha? But yeah,

319
00:23:18.400 --> 00:23:20.960
based so you're.

320
00:23:24.119 --> 00:23:26.240
I'm trying to how do I say this real quick?

321
00:23:26.319 --> 00:23:31.119
So you could tell definitely it was odal Ali female

322
00:23:31.279 --> 00:23:35.440
by the way that her head looked, or could you

323
00:23:35.480 --> 00:23:38.799
tell like muscle structure as well with the rest of

324
00:23:38.839 --> 00:23:41.000
the body. Could you tell anything like that?

325
00:23:43.599 --> 00:23:48.839
No, I wasn't really, It's funny. I wasn't trading on it.

326
00:23:48.839 --> 00:23:52.519
It just I was just basically seeing her face and

327
00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:56.359
her shoulders kind of but she's big, she was her

328
00:23:56.400 --> 00:24:02.240
shoulders were definitely like a football person there. She It

329
00:24:02.319 --> 00:24:04.880
was like she was getting ready to tackle. That's kind

330
00:24:04.880 --> 00:24:06.000
of the position she was.

331
00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:13.200
But cool, that's absolutely beautiful. Was I don't think you

332
00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:17.480
mentioned this, but was totally showing teeth at all?

333
00:24:20.079 --> 00:24:29.960
Uh? No, okay, nope, nope, he just kept it very friendly. Okay, Yeah,

334
00:24:30.000 --> 00:24:32.559
I didn't see anything I've seen Kay Steve that I

335
00:24:32.599 --> 00:24:33.519
have never seen her.

336
00:24:34.880 --> 00:24:38.319
And when was when did this happen? Again? This encounter?

337
00:24:40.759 --> 00:24:49.880
This happened I'm going to say in the fall last year.

338
00:24:50.119 --> 00:24:55.279
Fall five, I think, so yeah, okay, okay.

339
00:24:56.559 --> 00:25:00.160
Did you do you feel that this because this is

340
00:25:00.200 --> 00:25:05.119
a pretty big deal having this face to face. Oh

341
00:25:05.200 --> 00:25:07.759
and remind me how far away it was. You would

342
00:25:07.839 --> 00:25:09.640
estimate how far you guys.

343
00:25:09.359 --> 00:25:12.640
Were apart, fifty yards fifty yards?

344
00:25:12.680 --> 00:25:15.279
Okay, So, I mean this is a really big deal

345
00:25:15.559 --> 00:25:17.440
to have a face to face encounter like this. Did

346
00:25:17.480 --> 00:25:22.039
it affect the interactions between you and Steve and the

347
00:25:23.079 --> 00:25:26.559
Bigfoot family group after this? Did you notice anything different

348
00:25:26.839 --> 00:25:28.400
or no?

349
00:25:29.039 --> 00:25:35.200
Wowpe No, I mean since the first year, you know,

350
00:25:35.279 --> 00:25:37.599
and all that stuff. It was like maybe even two

351
00:25:37.640 --> 00:25:41.559
years of stuff that was just constantly joking with us

352
00:25:41.559 --> 00:25:45.519
and just doing silly stuff to us and aggravating Steve.

353
00:25:45.680 --> 00:25:49.000
They just kind of grew out of that, I think.

354
00:25:50.319 --> 00:25:53.200
And they still say high like you know, that was

355
00:25:54.519 --> 00:26:00.119
when they tuck that that leaf into her collar. That

356
00:26:00.160 --> 00:26:03.319
was kind of like a high kind of thing, you know,

357
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:08.400
So they let us know they're still around. They haven't.

358
00:26:08.440 --> 00:26:12.480
They've only smacked this house once and they did it

359
00:26:12.559 --> 00:26:17.599
near the piping, so it made a tiny noise. But

360
00:26:17.839 --> 00:26:20.000
the other one they used to smack a little more.

361
00:26:20.880 --> 00:26:23.640
But usually it was like I thank you, Like after

362
00:26:23.759 --> 00:26:28.200
I gave Scooby Doo those those crunchy treats, he came

363
00:26:28.279 --> 00:26:30.839
and smacked the house and then he dragged his nails

364
00:26:30.880 --> 00:26:34.559
down the back of the house. They don't reply to

365
00:26:34.720 --> 00:26:40.920
me like we do. You know. They do things, They

366
00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:47.200
do weird things, and they think that that's that's it,

367
00:26:47.359 --> 00:26:48.160
that's good.

368
00:26:50.079 --> 00:26:52.680
Do you think that does it?

369
00:26:53.160 --> 00:26:56.039
In your conversations with your neighbor that you met at

370
00:26:56.079 --> 00:26:59.799
the library that lives close to you, does it sound

371
00:26:59.880 --> 00:27:01.960
like he has had interactions with old.

372
00:27:01.920 --> 00:27:02.720
Lali as well.

373
00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:06.880
Oh, he definitely has Is that the female then.

374
00:27:08.279 --> 00:27:12.039
Yeah, okay, yeah, that is his friend, you know, like

375
00:27:12.119 --> 00:27:15.880
Kai's my friend, you know, and I went through Kai

376
00:27:15.960 --> 00:27:17.720
for a lot of things. Now I think I've got

377
00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:19.880
a little bit of a relationship with the old if

378
00:27:19.880 --> 00:27:25.160
she was the one that came. But I don't, I don't,

379
00:27:25.799 --> 00:27:28.960
I don't know. But she knocks on his door she

380
00:27:29.039 --> 00:27:32.640
wants food, and he'll go out and give it to her.

381
00:27:33.359 --> 00:27:36.799
But he's He's definitely had some weird things over there.

382
00:27:38.440 --> 00:27:42.519
Isn't it interesting? This isn't the case all the time.

383
00:27:42.559 --> 00:27:45.480
But I'm just thinking through all the conversations that I've had,

384
00:27:46.039 --> 00:27:52.160
and so often it seems like there's the one individual

385
00:27:52.240 --> 00:27:57.839
that has the interaction with the human and usually it's like,

386
00:27:58.079 --> 00:28:01.160
if let's say I'm a male, he and I'm having

387
00:28:01.279 --> 00:28:04.039
interaction with the bigfoot on my property or something like that,

388
00:28:04.079 --> 00:28:07.480
and it's extended, the one that's going back and forth

389
00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:10.279
would be a female, or if I was a female,

390
00:28:10.440 --> 00:28:11.960
the one would be a male. And I don't know

391
00:28:11.960 --> 00:28:15.039
if what that means, but there's a lot of the

392
00:28:15.079 --> 00:28:19.440
time it seems to be like the opposite sex would

393
00:28:19.519 --> 00:28:23.680
be the one that does the interactions with the human

394
00:28:24.160 --> 00:28:25.880
I don't know. I don't know what to think about it,

395
00:28:25.880 --> 00:28:26.759
to be honest.

396
00:28:27.799 --> 00:28:31.359
Yeah, I don't either. I have that myself, And I

397
00:28:31.400 --> 00:28:36.119
mean I have heard of people having relationships with There

398
00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:41.319
was a guy that was writing in to Nance and

399
00:28:42.319 --> 00:28:47.039
if you interactions with one one male and they were

400
00:28:47.079 --> 00:28:51.119
like buddies, right, you know. So, I mean there is

401
00:28:52.119 --> 00:28:55.680
situations where the males to reach out to the males,

402
00:28:55.720 --> 00:29:03.799
but they're usually weird situations of how it happens. Interesting maybe, yeah,

403
00:29:04.160 --> 00:29:11.200
But I don't know why he chose me and I

404
00:29:11.519 --> 00:29:13.920
And the only reason I can think of is because

405
00:29:14.000 --> 00:29:18.960
I am a sensitive and he I would be easier

406
00:29:20.039 --> 00:29:24.119
to talk to. But they say that Bigfoot will reach

407
00:29:24.160 --> 00:29:26.160
out to people that are going back to nature kind

408
00:29:26.200 --> 00:29:26.440
of thing.

409
00:29:27.400 --> 00:29:31.880
Oh okay, trying to have some connection with nature. Yeah,

410
00:29:31.880 --> 00:29:33.440
I mean that would make sense, right.

411
00:29:34.559 --> 00:29:39.839
Yeah, yeah, he You know. I made a small orchard

412
00:29:39.839 --> 00:29:42.000
and I have peach tree and then one year we

413
00:29:42.079 --> 00:29:46.559
had lots and lots of peaches on the tree and

414
00:29:47.119 --> 00:29:49.519
we were just picking them as we wanted to eat

415
00:29:49.559 --> 00:29:52.799
them because I had already canned tons of peaches and

416
00:29:52.839 --> 00:29:55.039
I was like, I don't need anymore, so I was

417
00:29:55.079 --> 00:29:58.759
giving them away and I just I was talking to

418
00:29:58.759 --> 00:30:03.359
something and said, well, just see bigfoot water. I said, so,

419
00:30:03.480 --> 00:30:06.119
I said out loud. One night before we went to bed,

420
00:30:06.720 --> 00:30:09.039
I said, hey, Kai, I said, we have a lovely

421
00:30:09.079 --> 00:30:12.400
peach tree. It's got lots of beautiful peaches on it

422
00:30:12.440 --> 00:30:15.079
and they're ready to eat. So it would give me

423
00:30:15.240 --> 00:30:20.359
great joy if you would pick all the top leave

424
00:30:20.400 --> 00:30:24.279
the bottom for us, Jeremiah. The next day that tree

425
00:30:24.359 --> 00:30:25.839
was picked clean off the top.

426
00:30:26.920 --> 00:30:27.799
Oh fascinating.

427
00:30:28.240 --> 00:30:33.799
Wow, they were okay, yeah, so but I I've offered

428
00:30:33.920 --> 00:30:38.920
like cucumbers. They don't want them. Of course, when when

429
00:30:38.920 --> 00:30:42.240
you're playing cucumbers you get so many of them, and

430
00:30:42.400 --> 00:30:44.759
I left them hanging around see if they take them,

431
00:30:44.759 --> 00:30:50.480
and they didn't want them. So and they don't seem

432
00:30:50.519 --> 00:30:54.000
to want candlope or a watermelon, though they did step

433
00:30:54.039 --> 00:30:58.400
on one of my watermelons and crack it like an egg. Oh,

434
00:30:58.440 --> 00:31:02.880
I bet they left it. They didn't. They didn't take it,

435
00:31:04.039 --> 00:31:08.599
so I'm guessing it was an accident, because they usually

436
00:31:08.759 --> 00:31:11.440
wait till we offer, and then I'll see, you can

437
00:31:11.480 --> 00:31:16.880
have these or you can have that. But I haven't

438
00:31:17.000 --> 00:31:20.039
found it's weird. I would think they would like more vegetables,

439
00:31:20.119 --> 00:31:20.440
how is.

440
00:31:20.440 --> 00:31:22.079
It that you knew that it was one of the

441
00:31:22.079 --> 00:31:24.279
bigfoot that stepped on the watermelon.

442
00:31:26.119 --> 00:31:30.119
Because it was cracked like an edge. It was There's

443
00:31:30.160 --> 00:31:32.319
no way that any of the animals right here could

444
00:31:32.400 --> 00:31:35.960
do that, And I knew I didn't do it.

445
00:31:36.279 --> 00:31:37.759
Right right there.

446
00:31:39.240 --> 00:31:43.200
We lived so far away from people, you know that

447
00:31:43.240 --> 00:31:45.400
we are out of the way. You know, there's a

448
00:31:45.440 --> 00:31:48.480
neighborhood up on a hill over there, but you have

449
00:31:48.519 --> 00:31:50.759
to go come down a hill to get to us

450
00:31:51.319 --> 00:31:54.880
and then go up another hill, so nobody would just

451
00:31:54.880 --> 00:32:02.039
be wandering around here. Yeah. But like like I said before, Jeremiah,

452
00:32:02.039 --> 00:32:06.559
and there's just weird things that happened, And it's like

453
00:32:06.640 --> 00:32:08.880
me and Steve are in our own little world down here,

454
00:32:09.799 --> 00:32:14.440
and there's sometimes no explanation. But they had to have

455
00:32:14.559 --> 00:32:18.440
done it, because I don't know who else would right.

456
00:32:19.519 --> 00:32:23.319
Going back to your encounter for a minute, what are

457
00:32:23.400 --> 00:32:27.799
your thoughts about what you saw before you saw ode Lali?

458
00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:33.240
What did I think first? I thought it was a cows.

459
00:32:33.200 --> 00:32:36.920
Or sorry, you saw the It looked like a big dog.

460
00:32:36.960 --> 00:32:38.680
What do you think was going on there?

461
00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:45.200
You have no explanation except that was possibly it dog?

462
00:32:45.240 --> 00:32:46.160
Did you say dog man?

463
00:32:46.240 --> 00:32:51.519
Sorry? Yeah? It was too big. I've never ever seen

464
00:32:51.559 --> 00:32:53.920
that dog around here, and I've never seen a dog

465
00:32:54.000 --> 00:32:59.359
that big ever. So then it just opens more, you know,

466
00:32:59.440 --> 00:33:04.960
questions like are they friends? What she saying? Still? Because

467
00:33:06.240 --> 00:33:11.079
that thing was around, I have a lot of questions,

468
00:33:11.119 --> 00:33:13.599
but I have no answers.

469
00:33:13.839 --> 00:33:16.759
And man, I don't get a lot into dog Man.

470
00:33:16.799 --> 00:33:20.519
But I'll tell you, like I know of a few

471
00:33:21.519 --> 00:33:27.519
areas that I can't really get into, but there are

472
00:33:27.640 --> 00:33:32.079
areas where there are it's almost like there's a group

473
00:33:32.240 --> 00:33:35.839
of Bigfoot and then there's a dividing line and there's

474
00:33:35.880 --> 00:33:40.240
a group of dog Man, and it's like they can't

475
00:33:40.279 --> 00:33:44.359
cross into their areas, and it's very very interesting. So

476
00:33:44.400 --> 00:33:47.279
I don't know if that's something where you're experiencing that,

477
00:33:47.359 --> 00:33:49.400
And maybe you just haven't seen a lot of the

478
00:33:49.480 --> 00:33:54.839
dog man yet, which I think would probably be okay.

479
00:33:53.599 --> 00:33:56.920
Telling you that. I was trying to take pictures, and

480
00:33:56.960 --> 00:34:00.000
of course the Bigfoot are very do not want picture,

481
00:34:00.480 --> 00:34:04.440
they don't want them. But I had gotten the night

482
00:34:04.519 --> 00:34:09.320
vision goggless, and sometimes I was sitting out here and

483
00:34:09.360 --> 00:34:11.719
we'll just look because I want to see if I

484
00:34:11.719 --> 00:34:16.360
can see them. And one day I saw a dog

485
00:34:16.440 --> 00:34:21.159
face real tall up in the series kind of thing,

486
00:34:22.039 --> 00:34:25.719
and it was it was in night vision, of course,

487
00:34:26.639 --> 00:34:31.119
but it looked brown and with some tan in it.

488
00:34:32.360 --> 00:34:34.960
But then when I tried to take a picture the camera,

489
00:34:35.880 --> 00:34:40.199
the pictures came out black. So I don't know what

490
00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:46.960
that was and it could not be verified. But I

491
00:34:47.079 --> 00:34:51.280
kind of wonder if they you know, they go out

492
00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:53.480
of the territory for a while and these things come in,

493
00:34:55.440 --> 00:35:00.159
like they share, but they leave at certain seasons. I

494
00:35:00.199 --> 00:35:06.920
don't know, we just don't, but they have not. I mean,

495
00:35:06.960 --> 00:35:11.599
we had one scary night will we heard rolling and

496
00:35:12.079 --> 00:35:16.519
it sounded like some kind of dog, but it was

497
00:35:16.960 --> 00:35:22.440
deeper and we actually there name we were scared, and

498
00:35:22.599 --> 00:35:26.639
but that was the only time that we heard that.

499
00:35:27.840 --> 00:35:28.159
M hm.

500
00:35:29.440 --> 00:35:33.119
How has the spring been of this year? Did did

501
00:35:33.159 --> 00:35:35.239
any anything happen during the spring?

502
00:35:37.679 --> 00:35:41.880
Well that that lead thing just happened and knocking, But

503
00:35:42.039 --> 00:35:48.199
it's it's not you know, Steve had that popping noise

504
00:35:49.840 --> 00:35:53.280
and the same chatter was all around the same tongue. Mhm,

505
00:35:54.480 --> 00:36:00.000
But it's not it's not. Uh, they're not, They're not.

506
00:36:00.159 --> 00:36:02.920
It is messing with us like they used to. I mean,

507
00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:06.239
on occasion, our fan will go off or you know,

508
00:36:06.320 --> 00:36:08.400
and we, of course we always try to think of

509
00:36:09.519 --> 00:36:16.320
logical ways. Why sometimes there's not you know, like the

510
00:36:16.360 --> 00:36:21.519
whole house will go out and well, thank god the

511
00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:25.360
generator died, and then we're looking it's still fifty percent

512
00:36:25.400 --> 00:36:27.760
and I'm like, well, why do you go off? Wow,

513
00:36:27.880 --> 00:36:31.519
we don't know. Just you know, that kind of stuff

514
00:36:31.519 --> 00:36:37.880
still happens, but very minimal now, and we get signs

515
00:36:37.920 --> 00:36:40.119
of High's kind of thing is what I feel like

516
00:36:40.159 --> 00:36:44.679
it is. But it's not. It's not like it was.

517
00:36:46.159 --> 00:36:50.119
It's just like we we exist together, you know. And

518
00:36:50.159 --> 00:36:54.280
they were very gracious to let me see them, and

519
00:36:54.400 --> 00:36:59.480
I hope that they let them again. Absolutely I would

520
00:36:59.519 --> 00:37:03.199
love to see Kai. I mean in that vision, and

521
00:37:03.239 --> 00:37:07.599
he's gorgeous and he's got really long hair and he's

522
00:37:07.639 --> 00:37:11.519
just so beautiful and I would really like to see him.

523
00:37:12.039 --> 00:37:13.760
And of course I had my shot and I blew

524
00:37:13.800 --> 00:37:15.639
it right because.

525
00:37:18.960 --> 00:37:21.519
But you did get you did get to Seota Lali though,

526
00:37:21.639 --> 00:37:26.920
which is fantastic. But yeah, I get that that would

527
00:37:26.960 --> 00:37:29.760
be a thing where I'd be like, well, maybe maybe

528
00:37:29.800 --> 00:37:33.440
I can see Kai too, you know, so your area

529
00:37:34.280 --> 00:37:37.440
I'm thinking of our conversation, and so you've got your

530
00:37:37.480 --> 00:37:43.639
interactions the family with the young child that was saying

531
00:37:43.719 --> 00:37:46.079
monster into the woods, and then you've got this other

532
00:37:46.159 --> 00:37:50.000
gentleman who's having interactions a few miles away. Have you

533
00:37:50.679 --> 00:37:56.719
looked to see if this area in Davy County just

534
00:37:57.039 --> 00:38:00.440
there's a lot of people that are having interact or

535
00:38:00.440 --> 00:38:03.159
are those the only ones that you've heard of so

536
00:38:03.239 --> 00:38:04.039
far in your area?

537
00:38:05.239 --> 00:38:10.760
No, I was actually listening to Pine Box Tales not yeah,

538
00:38:10.960 --> 00:38:13.239
quite a while ago. Actually, It's like when I first started,

539
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:19.239
and there was a group of kids that had a

540
00:38:19.280 --> 00:38:22.840
sleepover and they were out in the yard and something

541
00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:25.239
started messing with them, and they went out and there

542
00:38:25.280 --> 00:38:29.480
was a great sasquatch out there and they all ran

543
00:38:29.519 --> 00:38:31.320
into the house. I don't know if it chased them

544
00:38:31.400 --> 00:38:36.280
or whatever, but they when you know, I hear gray,

545
00:38:37.239 --> 00:38:40.639
I say, Okay, was that guy? Was that Scooby Doo?

546
00:38:42.119 --> 00:38:44.320
You know? Is that is that part of the family?

547
00:38:45.840 --> 00:38:48.760
So many questions that And that was right in Davy

548
00:38:48.800 --> 00:38:51.320
County too. I don't know how far she lives.

549
00:38:53.360 --> 00:38:56.159
Okay, so that's cool. So that's cool, So you definitely

550
00:38:56.159 --> 00:38:57.760
know it's the same county. That's awesome.

551
00:38:57.960 --> 00:39:02.760
Wow, Yeah, yep. Yeah. I'm always alert when I hear

552
00:39:02.800 --> 00:39:06.480
a story of, you know, somebody's experience in the same county.

553
00:39:07.559 --> 00:39:12.000
Absolutely I would be as well, what do you think

554
00:39:12.119 --> 00:39:19.360
the most important lesson you've learned interacting with this family

555
00:39:19.400 --> 00:39:20.440
over the years has been.

556
00:39:21.840 --> 00:39:28.000
God's got to be patients. They teach so much, I

557
00:39:28.039 --> 00:39:30.599
mean all throughout the whole thing. Me and See felt

558
00:39:30.599 --> 00:39:34.599
like it was a learning lesson. The whole thing. It

559
00:39:34.639 --> 00:39:38.880
was just, you know, they'd take our tools and they'd

560
00:39:38.920 --> 00:39:43.519
hide them, and we'd have to have patience because even

561
00:39:43.559 --> 00:39:45.400
if we needed and we had to go looking for it.

562
00:39:46.639 --> 00:39:50.480
And sometimes that we had a rape that was missing

563
00:39:50.519 --> 00:39:56.599
for weeks and it just showed up again. So I

564
00:39:56.599 --> 00:39:59.000
don't know what they needed it for, but I guess

565
00:39:59.039 --> 00:40:05.280
they borrowed it. So I think they borrow things and

566
00:40:05.320 --> 00:40:08.119
then they bring them back. But they do seem to

567
00:40:08.280 --> 00:40:12.960
like bowls in pans and that kind of stuff, you know,

568
00:40:13.000 --> 00:40:17.760
which I'm sure they get water with maybe. But I

569
00:40:18.320 --> 00:40:24.199
finally bought I gave the dogs my big rice pot

570
00:40:25.320 --> 00:40:27.960
because I didn't because I didn't know if the dogs

571
00:40:27.960 --> 00:40:30.760
were lifting it or if they were lifting it. I

572
00:40:30.760 --> 00:40:37.599
had no idea. But they seem to stop trading. Was

573
00:40:37.719 --> 00:40:43.320
just good. But I leave them, but I bought a

574
00:40:43.760 --> 00:40:47.679
case of the nixed nuts. They were on sale after Christmas,

575
00:40:47.719 --> 00:40:51.159
and I got them for a bucket piece and I

576
00:40:51.320 --> 00:40:54.039
just dumped them out behind the shed on a pile

577
00:40:54.079 --> 00:41:00.440
of wood, and they come and get them. And I

578
00:41:00.440 --> 00:41:02.599
don't know if the squirrels take them too, but there's

579
00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:04.639
no way they could get into some of them. Those

580
00:41:05.320 --> 00:41:10.320
Brazilian enough are super hard, but they seemed to come

581
00:41:10.360 --> 00:41:12.840
and scoop them up. I've got one more bag left,

582
00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:15.920
but I haven't given them pork brands in a while,

583
00:41:15.960 --> 00:41:17.480
so I was thinking about buying them a bag.

584
00:41:17.639 --> 00:41:18.159
I agree.

585
00:41:18.519 --> 00:41:20.920
The things that I hear, I mean I hear everything

586
00:41:21.000 --> 00:41:24.559
from like pork rinds things to a lot of like

587
00:41:24.639 --> 00:41:27.760
candy bars. I love candy bars here that all the time.

588
00:41:28.320 --> 00:41:30.679
Scott Carpenter would talk a lot about that a lot

589
00:41:30.880 --> 00:41:31.559
from Tennessee.

590
00:41:31.880 --> 00:41:34.199
Yeah, but.

591
00:41:36.239 --> 00:41:39.840
If you had, let's say, if there's people that are

592
00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:42.039
listening that, well, I know there's people that are listening

593
00:41:42.079 --> 00:41:48.199
and they have they're starting to have things happen similar

594
00:41:48.239 --> 00:41:52.639
to yours, where they might be noticing around things around

595
00:41:52.639 --> 00:41:56.960
their property or seeing things or even you know, experiencing

596
00:41:57.639 --> 00:42:03.079
things like you. Do you have any advice for people

597
00:42:03.079 --> 00:42:05.679
that are starting to get into situations like that.

598
00:42:07.199 --> 00:42:13.880
Yes, don't panic, and you're not crazy. This stuff happens

599
00:42:14.360 --> 00:42:20.159
and it's just welcome it. They will be so open

600
00:42:20.239 --> 00:42:24.480
with you and they will start being little jokesters. Don't

601
00:42:24.480 --> 00:42:31.239
be afraid of it. I mean, I'm not going to

602
00:42:31.239 --> 00:42:33.480
say that we weren't afraid at some points. If you

603
00:42:33.559 --> 00:42:39.000
listen to the stories, you'll know we were. And when

604
00:42:39.039 --> 00:42:41.079
we got a little nervous, we went in the house

605
00:42:41.960 --> 00:42:43.679
and then it was kind of like a reset for

606
00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:48.960
the next day. And if you're going to feed them,

607
00:42:49.519 --> 00:42:53.719
don't sustain them. Just think of it as a costco sample.

608
00:42:55.480 --> 00:42:59.599
When we first started leading things, I would take maybe

609
00:42:59.639 --> 00:43:03.639
twenty pork rinds and I'd stick them on the little

610
00:43:03.719 --> 00:43:07.800
nubby brand, you know, the branches, and I would just

611
00:43:07.880 --> 00:43:12.159
poke them in and then they would they'd all be gone.

612
00:43:12.239 --> 00:43:14.880
They'd go and try and but what I noticed is

613
00:43:14.920 --> 00:43:18.280
that after they accepted their little place where they get

614
00:43:18.320 --> 00:43:22.760
their things, nobody touches it. If they haven't been around

615
00:43:22.760 --> 00:43:26.760
in days, those little nubs will stay there, and you know,

616
00:43:26.800 --> 00:43:30.880
there's other little animals that have got to love them.

617
00:43:31.360 --> 00:43:34.800
Not even the bugs are on them, and that is

618
00:43:34.960 --> 00:43:42.360
a very wild thing. I think to find nothing else

619
00:43:42.400 --> 00:43:48.280
touches it, it'll stay. But I have given them when

620
00:43:48.280 --> 00:43:51.719
I cleaned out my pantry, I gave them dried fruits

621
00:43:51.760 --> 00:43:57.320
in almonds and they left the almonds for a long time.

622
00:43:58.519 --> 00:44:01.800
That was just kind of weird to me. But eventually

623
00:44:01.840 --> 00:44:05.119
they took them. They must have liked them. I had

624
00:44:05.159 --> 00:44:07.920
a whole nother case of all means for them, but

625
00:44:08.199 --> 00:44:11.519
I was going to wait until I thought maybe they

626
00:44:11.559 --> 00:44:15.800
would appreciate them, because I don't know. Maybe they they didn't,

627
00:44:17.119 --> 00:44:19.039
but if they were smart, they'd bring them and stick

628
00:44:19.079 --> 00:44:20.079
them in for winter.

629
00:44:20.840 --> 00:44:25.800
Bring a bag exactly. Yeah, that's funny. It's it's a

630
00:44:27.079 --> 00:44:30.360
just a fascinating account of what you guys have learned

631
00:44:30.360 --> 00:44:34.639
over the years, what you're experiencing, what your neighbors are experiencing,

632
00:44:34.679 --> 00:44:37.599
and it's just the whole thing together is a really,

633
00:44:38.039 --> 00:44:43.360
really beautiful story. I hope that you're you're still able to,

634
00:44:44.039 --> 00:44:46.519
you know, have experiences in the future. It sounds like

635
00:44:46.559 --> 00:44:49.400
you're wanting those to happen, and maybe you'll have even

636
00:44:49.559 --> 00:44:54.280
your be even able to see kai, which would be fantastic.

637
00:44:54.360 --> 00:44:57.880
But I'm to build trust with.

638
00:44:57.840 --> 00:45:03.079
Them, absolutely, Yes, That is a great reminder because I

639
00:45:03.119 --> 00:45:07.039
think so many people, including myself, are like, oh, yeah,

640
00:45:07.159 --> 00:45:11.440
you know, if I go out on one weekend a year,

641
00:45:12.480 --> 00:45:14.679
because that's what I can do in an area, I'm

642
00:45:14.679 --> 00:45:17.840
going to have this. But no, it's like it a

643
00:45:17.880 --> 00:45:20.199
lot of the time. You have to take the time

644
00:45:20.360 --> 00:45:23.519
to build a relationship and have them get.

645
00:45:24.000 --> 00:45:25.199
Comfortable with you.

646
00:45:25.280 --> 00:45:28.159
And that's just what I'm getting from different conversations I've had.

647
00:45:28.239 --> 00:45:31.400
But you're absolutely right, it's not you have to put

648
00:45:31.400 --> 00:45:32.559
the time in for sure.

649
00:45:32.840 --> 00:45:35.360
Yep, that's for sure. I mean just going out in

650
00:45:35.400 --> 00:45:38.719
the woods, you could be getting one that's not very nice.

651
00:45:39.000 --> 00:45:40.000
Oh that's true.

652
00:45:40.599 --> 00:45:41.880
I didn't think of that before.

653
00:45:41.920 --> 00:45:43.480
You just get in the one that's like all right,

654
00:45:43.519 --> 00:45:48.079
let's go get them.

655
00:45:48.480 --> 00:45:50.840
Well, and they're not all good. And if you get

656
00:45:50.840 --> 00:45:53.440
a bunch ofs that are looking for trouble, which is

657
00:45:53.599 --> 00:45:57.559
usually what's out there when people are looking, go buy

658
00:45:57.599 --> 00:46:00.559
some land with you know, some woods around it and

659
00:46:00.960 --> 00:46:01.760
sit and wait.

660
00:46:02.559 --> 00:46:07.599
There you go, Yeah, some some woods. Bonus points if

661
00:46:07.639 --> 00:46:11.199
it's got some sort of some sort of water source.

662
00:46:10.960 --> 00:46:12.440
Or a really curvy.

663
00:46:13.719 --> 00:46:17.960
Creek that goes through it, that comes up the creek,

664
00:46:18.679 --> 00:46:24.280
the creek that curves comes up a ton in different accounts,

665
00:46:24.400 --> 00:46:27.280
but Sandy, I want to make sure that we were

666
00:46:27.320 --> 00:46:30.360
able to to it. Sounds like you were able to

667
00:46:30.400 --> 00:46:35.400
share everything that you had prepared for your your encounter

668
00:46:35.519 --> 00:46:36.480
so far. Is that correct?

669
00:46:37.599 --> 00:46:41.719
I think you've got everything and I'm still outs and journals,

670
00:46:42.119 --> 00:46:47.400
so more things happen. I'll give you a buzz a

671
00:46:47.840 --> 00:46:54.280
going off grid the Sandy and Steve TikTok and YouTube.

672
00:46:54.880 --> 00:46:56.800
But I will tell you that I don't put big

673
00:46:56.840 --> 00:47:01.159
put stuff on there. It's mostly about being okay.

674
00:47:01.760 --> 00:47:03.960
The minder is the bigfoot stuff is in the book

675
00:47:04.079 --> 00:47:06.079
that you have released and.

676
00:47:06.719 --> 00:47:09.880
Want all the tales. Definitely read the book. It's right,

677
00:47:10.039 --> 00:47:12.360
I mean, it's on all well, it's about four hours long.

678
00:47:12.400 --> 00:47:16.559
It's not long, but it's kind of cool. They put

679
00:47:16.559 --> 00:47:17.960
sound effects on it and love it.

680
00:47:18.079 --> 00:47:23.719
Oh, nice to check that out for sure. Wow, Amazon,

681
00:47:24.559 --> 00:47:25.159
good stuff.

682
00:47:25.199 --> 00:47:28.039
I'll have all those links in the show notes. Sandy,

683
00:47:28.119 --> 00:47:30.559
and thank you so much for spending some time with

684
00:47:30.599 --> 00:47:33.599
me over the last few days. It's been fun chatting

685
00:47:33.639 --> 00:47:36.920
with you, and I think I know my listeners will

686
00:47:37.000 --> 00:47:40.480
learn a ton from this. Habituation stories you can learn

687
00:47:40.519 --> 00:47:43.639
so much from, so thank you so much. I do

688
00:47:44.039 --> 00:47:46.559
really appreciate you hanging out with me today, Sandy.

689
00:47:47.440 --> 00:47:49.920
Sure, I love talking.

690
00:47:50.079 --> 00:47:52.360
Before we wrap this episode, I want to say something

691
00:47:52.400 --> 00:47:55.599
directly to a very specific group of listeners. If you're

692
00:47:55.639 --> 00:47:59.400
in the military, any branch or forces, and if you've

693
00:47:59.400 --> 00:48:02.280
seen something that no one can explain, or if you're

694
00:48:02.280 --> 00:48:05.559
a National park ranger or forestry worker who's been told

695
00:48:05.559 --> 00:48:08.559
to stay quiet, or if you're a pilot who's seen

696
00:48:08.639 --> 00:48:11.880
something strange down on the ground, or if you're with

697
00:48:11.920 --> 00:48:15.599
the FBI a federal agency, or working intelligence and you've

698
00:48:15.599 --> 00:48:18.719
stumbled upon something you're not allowed to talk about. And

699
00:48:18.800 --> 00:48:22.159
if you're a firefighter, paramedic, or search and rescue responder

700
00:48:22.239 --> 00:48:25.480
who's heard screams or found tracks that didn't make sense.

701
00:48:26.000 --> 00:48:29.840
If you're in the logging industry on a remote oil field,

702
00:48:30.000 --> 00:48:33.039
or a trucker with government contracts and you've had something

703
00:48:33.119 --> 00:48:36.519
happen that you've never told a soul. And if you're

704
00:48:36.519 --> 00:48:40.400
a biologist, a wildlife specialist, or a field researcher under

705
00:48:40.440 --> 00:48:43.800
contract who has found evidence you're not allowed to report.

706
00:48:44.360 --> 00:48:46.800
If you're a pastor, a missionary, or someone on a

707
00:48:46.840 --> 00:48:50.320
spiritual retreat and you saw something that shook your faith,

708
00:48:51.039 --> 00:48:54.119
or if you work in the shadows, CIA, NSA or

709
00:48:54.159 --> 00:48:57.519
anything with clearance and you've seen what the public hasn't,

710
00:48:58.880 --> 00:49:02.360
then I want to talk to you, even if it's anonymous.

711
00:49:04.119 --> 00:49:07.679
You can reach me at Bigfoot Society at gmail dot com.

712
00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:10.519
The world needs to hear what you've been forced to

713
00:49:10.559 --> 00:49:16.480
carry alone, and you're not alone. You've got the story,

714
00:49:16.880 --> 00:49:17.840
We've got the mic.

715
00:49:19.159 --> 00:49:19.960
See you in the woods.

00:49:20.519 --> 00:49:22.599

the truth is often hiding just beyond the tree line.
