Join host Jeremiah Byron from Bigfoot Society as we sit down with Mary Ann Ziebell, BFRO investigator, expedition leader, and founder of the Ozark Mountain Bigfoot Conference, for one of the most action-packed conversations ever recorded. Maryanne shares her first-night Missouri Bigfoot encounter, where a massive, upright, hair-covered figure stepped from behind a tree only 25 yards away, changing her life forever.
She dives into wild activity from Missouri, Arkansas, and Oklahoma—including tree knocks, tracking evidence, thermal hits, campsite stalkings, orbs, UAP encounters, and close-range sightings reported during BFRO and private expeditions. From the Ozarks to Land Between the Lakes, Maryanne breaks down what investigators really experience in the field and how her team teaches casting, tracking, and tech skills to new researchers.
If you’re fascinated by Bigfoot in the Ozarks, Midwest cryptid hotspots, real BFRO investigations, or boots-on-the-ground fieldwork, this episode delivers nonstop insight and unforgettable witness stories.

• Mary Ann’s first Bigfoot sighting in south-central Missouri
