Originally released as Episode 1148 of Bigfoot Society
What happens when a psychologist spends hundreds of hours searching for Sasquatch?
In this archived conversation, Dr. John Baranchok shares the encounters that convinced him something extraordinary is moving through the forests of North America. From unexplained rock-throwing incidents in the mountains of New Mexico to a terrifying nighttime encounter in Tennessee involving a possible bluff charge, glowing red eyes, and a massive footprint cast, this episode is packed with firsthand experiences from years of field research.
John also discusses the science of Bigfoot investigation, how researchers can prepare themselves for high-intensity encounters, the role of perception in the wilderness, reports of mindspeak and telepathy, and why experimental research may hold the key to understanding the phenomenon.
Locations discussed include New Mexico, Georgia, Tennessee, Kentucky, and the Appalachian Mountains.
If you've ever wondered what decades of field experience can teach us about Sasquatch, this is an episode you won't want to miss.
