00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:04.160
Greetings, fellow seekers of the unknown. It's Brian and I'm here today to

2
00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:08.119
share something truly extraordinary with all of
you. As you know, my journey

3
00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:12.000
to uncover the truth of all things
strange has taken me on a wild ride

4
00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:16.760
filled with incredible experiences and encounters with
the unseen, and today I want to

5
00:00:16.800 --> 00:00:20.480
share that journey with all of you
by introducing you to Hanger one Publishing.

6
00:00:20.879 --> 00:00:25.679
Hanger one Publishing is the premier destination
for books on all things strange and mysterious,

7
00:00:26.079 --> 00:00:30.160
from Bigfoot to cryptids, UFOs and
the paranormal. They cover it all,

8
00:00:30.519 --> 00:00:33.840
and let me tell you, the
books in their catalog are simply amazing.

9
00:00:34.200 --> 00:00:38.200
One book that I'm particularly excited about
is The Freeman Bigfoot Files by Michael

10
00:00:38.240 --> 00:00:42.159
Paul Freeman. This is no ordinary
book, my friends. This is an

11
00:00:42.200 --> 00:00:48.560
immersive experience unlike any other. With
Hanger One's proprietary immersive book technology, you

12
00:00:48.600 --> 00:00:52.840
can see and hear audio and video
in the printed books. You'll get exclusive

13
00:00:52.880 --> 00:00:57.479
access to the highest resolution, full
color premium print pages, over a hundred

14
00:00:57.479 --> 00:01:00.600
full color photos, and dozens of
exclusion of audio and video clips that have

15
00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:04.680
never been revealed until now. It's
a one of a kind experience that will

16
00:01:04.680 --> 00:01:08.599
take you deep into the world of
Bigfoot. Another book that I simply can't

17
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:14.560
recommend enough is The Bigfoot Influencers by
Tim Halleran. This book features candid,

18
00:01:14.599 --> 00:01:18.760
compelling conversations with the biggest names in
the Bigfoot community and it will give you

19
00:01:18.799 --> 00:01:22.239
a behind the scenes look at what
they really think about this mysterious creature.

20
00:01:22.680 --> 00:01:26.280
You'll hear from researchers, scientists and
investigators and get a glimpse into the inner

21
00:01:26.319 --> 00:01:30.400
workings of the bigfoot world. And
finally, for all of my fellow British

22
00:01:30.400 --> 00:01:36.040
Bigfoot enthusiasts, I want to mention
Beast of Britain by Andy McGrath. This

23
00:01:36.079 --> 00:01:40.079
book is a must read for anyone
interested in the cryptids of the British Isles.

24
00:01:40.319 --> 00:01:44.680
McGrath has spent over twenty five years
researching and obsessing about these unknown creatures,

25
00:01:45.000 --> 00:01:48.760
and in this book he shares his
findings and current research. It's a

26
00:01:48.840 --> 00:01:53.480
journey into the darkness where nobody ventures
into the woods anymore and where the many

27
00:01:53.560 --> 00:01:57.799
yet to be discovered Beasts of Britain
lie. So if you're ready to take

28
00:01:57.840 --> 00:02:00.319
your journey into the unknown to the
next level, then you need to check

29

to Sasquatchpots. Thank you so much for

34
00:02:52.960 --> 00:02:54.159
being with us for the show.
It is Friday. I hope you guys

35
00:02:54.159 --> 00:02:58.199
have a great week. We have
an amazing guest line for you. But

36
00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:00.520
before we get there, I want
to start by fighting you. If you've

37
00:03:00.520 --> 00:03:04.240
had an encounter and you'd like to
be on the show, shoot me an

38
00:03:04.240 --> 00:03:07.879
email and get me a Brian at
Paranimal World Productions dot com. Get head

39
00:03:07.879 --> 00:03:09.319
over to the website, check it
out, become a member there and help

40
00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:14.560
support the show. As I said, we've got a great guest lined up.

41
00:03:14.599 --> 00:03:16.639
I got to sit down with Henry
Franzoni and if you guys have seen

42
00:03:16.680 --> 00:03:22.000
Sasquatch Odyssey The Hunt for Bigfoot,
it was a documentary from back in nineteen

43
00:03:22.080 --> 00:03:24.439
ninety nine. Henry is the guy
who has a pretty big segment there and

44
00:03:24.479 --> 00:03:29.039
he's playing the drums, So if
you haven't seen that, I suggest you

45
00:03:29.120 --> 00:03:31.199
check that out and you'll get a
great idea for who Henry is. But

46
00:03:31.319 --> 00:03:36.520
he's here to share his personal experiences
with Bigfoot, and we also get into

47
00:03:36.560 --> 00:03:40.479
some of his very interesting theories on
Bigfoot and what he's discovered along the way

48
00:03:40.560 --> 00:03:45.120
in that journey to find those answers. He just completed a new book.

49
00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:47.280
He just sent me a copy of
it. I got it yesterday and I

50
00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:51.240
am certainly looking forward to getting into
the book. But for now, we've

51
00:03:51.280 --> 00:03:53.039
got Henry here, so I know
you guys are ready to get into it.

52
00:03:53.120 --> 00:03:55.280
Henry's on the line, he's ready
to go. So you got to

53
00:03:55.319 --> 00:04:16.879
sit back, relax and enjoy the
show. All right, books, don't

54
00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:19.839
welcome my guest to the show.
It is Henry Franzoni. Welcome to the

55
00:04:19.839 --> 00:04:24.560
show. Henry. Greetings, greetings, nice to be here. I am

56
00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:27.399
glad to have you. So let's
get right into it. Let's talk about

57
00:04:27.399 --> 00:04:30.360
this sasquatch thing first and foremost.
You've been doing this for a ton of

58
00:04:30.480 --> 00:04:34.439
years, but let's take everybody back
to the beginning and tell them what got

59
00:04:34.480 --> 00:04:40.759
you interested in the bigfoot subject.
In the first place. I went camping

60
00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:46.800
with my wife in the mountains in
Oregon, and I went to a place

61
00:04:46.000 --> 00:04:51.720
that the Indians said evil God of
the Woods lived there, at least that

62
00:04:51.959 --> 00:04:57.399
was the story that went with the
name. And we went up there and

63
00:04:57.519 --> 00:05:00.720
we ran into something that blew our
minds. And we didn't see a thing,

64
00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:05.720
but we smelled something and it really
smelled like Bigfoot or what you would

65
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:11.879
think. It smelled like a big
wet dog. So this happened one night

66
00:05:11.920 --> 00:05:16.600
in nineteen ninety three, and somehow
that was it. I went wandering around

67
00:05:16.680 --> 00:05:21.920
wondering what I ran into, and
met Peter Byrne, met Gray Crow,

68
00:05:23.120 --> 00:05:30.279
and then fell into the Bigfoot world. From then on, I had a

69
00:05:30.319 --> 00:05:33.319
lot of other Really, I had
a lot of strange encounters over the years,

70
00:05:33.600 --> 00:05:40.720
and my very first one turns out
to be literally five minutes after I

71
00:05:40.920 --> 00:05:45.800
looked for Bigfoot. But I wasn't
really looking for Bigfoot. I was trying

72
00:05:45.839 --> 00:05:49.160
to see what the Indians were referring
to as the evil God of the woods.

73
00:05:50.240 --> 00:05:55.360
So that's how I kind of came
in through an Indian connection. Boy,

74
00:05:55.399 --> 00:05:59.079
you know, it's a slippery slope. And after that I spent thirty

75
00:05:59.160 --> 00:06:03.319
years of my life wondering about it
so well, I definitely want to get

76
00:06:03.360 --> 00:06:06.680
into the Native American connection to this. But would you mind taking us back

77
00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:10.759
to that first time, in that
first experience. I know you said you

78
00:06:10.759 --> 00:06:13.839
didn't see anything, but would you
tell us tell me in the audience what

79
00:06:13.920 --> 00:06:16.399
happened during that incident? Well,
the very very first one, the very

80
00:06:16.480 --> 00:06:20.600
very first one. I know I
was hesitant because I've told it so many

81
00:06:20.639 --> 00:06:28.079
times, even at the time I
did interviews in newspapers. But basically I

82
00:06:28.199 --> 00:06:31.680
missed a turn to this place called
Scuocum Lake that's had about five thousand feet

83
00:06:31.720 --> 00:06:38.519
on a mountain named Thunder Mountain in
the Cascades in Oregon, and I went

84
00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:43.079
about a quarter mile paste it and
I went shit, and I turned around,

85
00:06:43.199 --> 00:06:46.319
came back, and as I came
back where had I had just been,

86
00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:54.120
now there was this really pungent smell
that smelled like a wet dog and

87
00:06:54.360 --> 00:07:00.879
was really pungent. And I stopped
a van. It was just jet inky

88
00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:04.480
darkness, and all the crickets stopped
right at the same time. And then

89
00:07:04.560 --> 00:07:09.040
my wife, who was sitting in
the passenger seat, said to me,

90
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:13.199
I'm really tired. I'm going to
take a nap, and instantly she fell

91
00:07:13.240 --> 00:07:17.639
asleep. It was weird how she
just fell asleep in like ten seconds.

92
00:07:18.480 --> 00:07:23.519
And so I was sitting there and
then I had long hair at the time,

93
00:07:24.319 --> 00:07:29.040
and it stood out all the way
around my head like a huge like

94
00:07:29.279 --> 00:07:33.800
Albert Einstein thing, with the hair
sticking straight out everywhere, like a static

95
00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:41.720
electricity charge was taking over my hair, and I could feel all the hair

96
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:45.920
and my skin standing up and everything. It was static electricity, and that

97
00:07:45.959 --> 00:07:50.279
went away, and then the smell
went away and my van starter motor was

98
00:07:50.360 --> 00:07:56.519
blown, so I could never start
it again. It was stuck there and

99
00:07:56.600 --> 00:08:01.759
we had to camp out in the
van overnight because it couldn't move. So

100
00:08:01.920 --> 00:08:07.600
something physical had happened that I couldn't
ignore, which was the starter motor burned

101
00:08:07.680 --> 00:08:11.079
up the rest of it. Whenever
I told anybody at the time, they

102
00:08:11.079 --> 00:08:16.439
were like, oh, you know, that's you're insane, or what drugs

103
00:08:16.439 --> 00:08:22.519
were you on? You know.
One form of perceptual failure or another was

104
00:08:22.920 --> 00:08:28.439
how people thought this was, and
usually it was impossible, so therefore I

105
00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:33.240
was the one at fault. So
after a while I didn't talk about it

106
00:08:33.360 --> 00:08:37.200
much. But that was just the
very first moment that I ran into it,

107
00:08:37.240 --> 00:08:41.159
and I said, well, I
think this is what people call Bigfoot

108
00:08:41.200 --> 00:08:46.000
because of the smell, and the
crickets seemed to know what it was,

109
00:08:46.080 --> 00:08:50.600
and the crickets started up when the
smell left. So the whole thing was

110
00:08:50.679 --> 00:08:54.399
really, really strange. And I
said, jeez, if that's what Bigfoot

111
00:08:54.519 --> 00:08:56.559
is, you know, maybe he
is the evil god of the woods for

112
00:08:56.679 --> 00:09:01.799
all I know. I realized that
I was dealing with something way beyond my

113
00:09:01.960 --> 00:09:07.879
understanding immediately, so I became part
of the board of advisors of Peter Byrne's

114
00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:15.440
Bigfoot research project. We went out
and investigated four hundred and eighty five sighting

115
00:09:15.480 --> 00:09:20.480
reports in Oregon and Washington. Peter
wanted to look for something he called geo

116
00:09:20.480 --> 00:09:26.399
time patterns, and that meant we
built a database and then we looked for

117
00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:30.639
patterns. We looked to see if
there was any pattern in the data.

118
00:09:30.960 --> 00:09:33.639
There was there four hundred and eighty
five sighting reports. You know, let's

119
00:09:33.639 --> 00:09:39.759
just say there really weren't any patterns
that were too visible at that point.

120
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:43.200
Later, when I had a lot
more data, I was able to figure

121
00:09:43.240 --> 00:09:46.440
out some patterns. But yeah,
that's what got me started back then,

122
00:09:46.840 --> 00:09:52.440
is I fell into it in nineteen
ninety three. There were already a handful

123
00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:58.960
of people really into it, John
Green and Peter Byrne and Grovercrantz and Reneeda

124
00:09:58.039 --> 00:10:05.759
Hindon, and I saw the big
problem of that moment was to somehow get

125
00:10:05.759 --> 00:10:13.679
those four to collaborate and share their
data, because each of them had valuable

126
00:10:13.759 --> 00:10:20.240
information that they would not share with
anybody else. I came to understand what

127
00:10:20.360 --> 00:10:24.120
I had done by building a database
for Peter Byrne in large part was because

128
00:10:24.240 --> 00:10:30.159
John Green then would not share his
database, and Peter Byrne really wanted a

129
00:10:30.240 --> 00:10:35.759
database like John greenhad. And when
I read Apes among Us, that's the

130
00:10:35.799 --> 00:10:39.240
first thing I thought was. I
read Apes among Us John Green's book,

131
00:10:39.240 --> 00:10:43.159
and I said, Wow, I'm
gonna make a database and start analyzing exciting

132
00:10:43.200 --> 00:10:46.559
reports. You know, that was
like a no brainer. Look, of

133
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:50.840
course I was going to do that. And then one thing led to another,

134
00:10:50.120 --> 00:10:54.639
and by nineteen ninety eight, John
Green and I were having a meal

135
00:10:54.759 --> 00:11:00.279
together in Vancouver and he looked at
me and he said, the one thing

136
00:11:00.360 --> 00:11:05.759
this world doesn't need is another Bigfoot
researcher. And I said, what he

137
00:11:05.840 --> 00:11:11.639
said, you're to blame for bringing
all these Bigfoot researchers and minting them by

138
00:11:11.639 --> 00:11:15.679
the thousands by bringing Bigfoot to the
Internet. And I said, well,

139
00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:20.559
you know you created me because you
wrote apes amongst us And I said,

140
00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:22.240
god, I have to make a
database and take it to the web.

141
00:11:22.440 --> 00:11:28.200
Wow, you know, like have
to do that. So I just thought

142
00:11:28.200 --> 00:11:33.720
it was funny thinking back on it
now, because I understand now, look

143
00:11:33.759 --> 00:11:37.480
what's happened. Yes, you can
look around and see the results today.

144
00:11:37.600 --> 00:11:45.759
There's definitely some issues with Bigfoot the
community, the online community in particular.

145
00:11:45.879 --> 00:11:48.120
I've talked about it at nauseum on
the show before. It can be a

146
00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:52.360
very toxic environment. I think it
does some good. I think there's some

147
00:11:52.399 --> 00:11:54.639
good parts of it. I think
there's some bad parts of it. Like

148
00:11:54.759 --> 00:11:58.320
everything else, I try to take
what I like and leave the rest.

149
00:11:58.440 --> 00:12:01.600
Basically, let's talk a little bit
of about the first couple of things that

150
00:12:01.639 --> 00:12:03.720
happened that you were involved in on
the internet. Let's talk a little bit

151
00:12:03.759 --> 00:12:07.960
about the IVBC. Tell people who
may not be familiar with that what that

152
00:12:09.200 --> 00:12:11.960
is and what was your involvement in
that. I created it. I created

153
00:12:13.000 --> 00:12:18.639
the very first Bigfoot discussion group online
that had people like Matt Moneymaker and Cliff

154
00:12:18.679 --> 00:12:24.600
Barrickman were members, and Ron Moorehead
and John Green, very same people were

155
00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:30.320
talking about and yes, we used
to aren't doing much like you all do

156
00:12:30.519 --> 00:12:37.360
today in the very very first one. And I was the administrator and person

157
00:12:37.519 --> 00:12:41.200
that said. I was a computer
dec that said, hey, man the

158
00:12:41.240 --> 00:12:46.559
web, look at these mailing lists, look at these automated mailing list things

159
00:12:46.639 --> 00:12:50.879
we can do. Hey, check
this out, Let's do this. And

160
00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:56.639
so I'm actually it all sprang ahead
of my head. The whole idea of

161
00:12:56.240 --> 00:13:03.240
putting a Bigfoot website together and creating
a club around it and say hey,

162
00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:07.720
let's seek the mystery, and then
putting all kinds of recordings and stories and

163
00:13:07.919 --> 00:13:13.000
photos on that website and having a
discussion group. And so if I had

164
00:13:13.039 --> 00:13:18.840
a penny for every website that exists
today, I would be rich. Unfortunately

165
00:13:18.879 --> 00:13:22.440
I do not. And that was
the best idea I ever came up with.

166
00:13:22.519 --> 00:13:26.039
But I didn't know that that just
showing people how to do it and

167
00:13:26.120 --> 00:13:33.200
going, look, you can proclaim
yourself a Bigfoot expert on the web,

168
00:13:33.799 --> 00:13:37.879
create an organization and you know,
figure out a position on the Patterson film

169
00:13:37.960 --> 00:13:41.480
of course, so that people know
where you stand and away you go.

170
00:13:41.720 --> 00:13:46.320
There you are. So I kind
of created the template for everyone to follow,

171
00:13:46.720 --> 00:13:50.799
and I have mixed feelings about that. Okay, you know I can

172
00:13:50.879 --> 00:13:54.600
understand it. Go into those feelings. Let's talk about some of those feelings.

173
00:13:54.600 --> 00:13:58.559
What's the good, the bad,
and the other. Well, you

174
00:13:58.600 --> 00:14:03.759
know, I see it like I
encourage it to be like sports where people

175
00:14:03.399 --> 00:14:07.960
treat some people. I mean I
can't really, you know, I don't

176
00:14:07.960 --> 00:14:13.120
like saying bad stuff about others.
Much like you. I ignore everybody all

177
00:14:13.200 --> 00:14:18.440
the time and pay no attention to
anything whatsoever online or even in books or

178
00:14:18.480 --> 00:14:22.240
anything. I just live in my
own world with Bigfoot. That's what has

179
00:14:22.320 --> 00:14:28.360
driven me to over the years,
is you know, just complete divorce from

180
00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:31.919
it. But on the one hand, it's like sports teams, everybody or

181
00:14:31.960 --> 00:14:37.360
not everybody. I shouldn't speak so
generally. There are camps, there are

182
00:14:37.360 --> 00:14:45.879
schools of thought. People aren't really
interested in being reasonable. They're both have

183
00:14:46.720 --> 00:14:52.039
frameworks of rationalization, they're not actually
rational, and they don't want to be

184
00:14:52.120 --> 00:14:58.759
reasonable with each other. They each
have their checklists, and they each have

185
00:14:58.879 --> 00:15:03.600
their sports team, and they already
know what they think, and they basically

186
00:15:03.639 --> 00:15:09.919
expect you to confirm what they already
know or think or whatever, and that

187
00:15:09.039 --> 00:15:13.279
whole environment. I feel like,
oh my god, you know I had

188
00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:16.039
something to do with that. So
I kind of feel pretty crappy about that

189
00:15:16.159 --> 00:15:22.159
because it's really descended into a sort
of a parody of itself. I mean,

190
00:15:22.159 --> 00:15:26.360
it was always those elements were always
there people, but they become so

191
00:15:26.519 --> 00:15:33.000
mean and so well, let's just
say, from my perspective, all the

192
00:15:33.080 --> 00:15:39.200
different people insides have a different piece
of the puzzle, and I think that

193
00:15:39.320 --> 00:15:45.919
I could show them how if they
understood how each of them is missing pieces,

194
00:15:46.120 --> 00:15:50.120
they could see how it all fits
together, because it all does fit

195
00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:52.200
together for me. I mean,
honestly, now I have, like,

196
00:15:52.279 --> 00:15:58.360
at least I think I got a
beat on now, which is thirty years

197
00:15:58.399 --> 00:16:00.679
of thinking about it. You know, everybody's got to beat this, Like,

198
00:16:00.679 --> 00:16:04.399
hey, you got a theory,
throw that theory on the campfire and

199
00:16:04.480 --> 00:16:07.960
let's have a marshmallow roast, you
know. I mean, really, it's

200
00:16:08.000 --> 00:16:12.399
not like I'm hung up on it, but I do think that the dialogues

201
00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:18.080
it was crappy thirty year. It
was crappy in the beginning, but it's

202
00:16:18.120 --> 00:16:22.440
gotten worse, you know, it's
gotten more to me, it seems that

203
00:16:22.480 --> 00:16:26.840
way. The little that I pay
attention to it, I see really hardened

204
00:16:26.879 --> 00:16:33.559
positions. And another thing that I
sort of started was people should be scientific

205
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:37.840
in their approach and science is good, and let's use the scientific method.

206
00:16:38.320 --> 00:16:45.159
Then I became a scientist for real. And now I'm retired after a thirty

207
00:16:45.240 --> 00:16:48.840
year career as a scientist for real, and I see the big footers and

208
00:16:49.399 --> 00:16:55.360
other than a couple of people,
I see wannabes. I see a lot

209
00:16:55.559 --> 00:17:03.519
of hand waving and cries of must
be scientific with people that have no understanding

210
00:17:03.559 --> 00:17:07.000
of what being scientific is like.
I don't see a lot of science.

211
00:17:07.039 --> 00:17:10.599
I see a lot of talk about
science, but I don't see any actual

212
00:17:10.839 --> 00:17:17.200
science, not much, let's say
so, I'm surprised nothing's really advanced for

213
00:17:17.240 --> 00:17:21.200
the community, you know. I
feel that I made a lot more progress

214
00:17:21.240 --> 00:17:26.960
on my own than the rest of
humanity did just flogging each other online.

215
00:17:26.319 --> 00:17:29.799
Well, let's talk a little bit
about that. That's something that's been sort

216
00:17:29.839 --> 00:17:33.599
of a theme on this show over
the last year and a half or so.

217
00:17:33.839 --> 00:17:37.640
I've talked about the proverbial ball being
on the five yard line in Bigfoot

218
00:17:37.680 --> 00:17:41.599
research, and I think the Patterson
Gimblin film probably put us there, and

219
00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:45.200
along the way there may have been
a little bit of inches of movement here

220
00:17:45.200 --> 00:17:49.519
and there, but in general,
we're still stuck on the five yard line.

221
00:17:49.559 --> 00:17:52.720
And as far as I'm concerned with
the research, I know you've got

222
00:17:52.759 --> 00:17:56.480
some theories you're you're definitely not in
the flesh and blood camp. I certainly

223
00:17:56.519 --> 00:18:00.720
want to get into and talk a
little bit about that. But that's something

224
00:18:00.759 --> 00:18:04.079
that it sort of happened for me
over the last year or so is I

225
00:18:04.200 --> 00:18:08.279
started opening up my mind and thinking
in other ways and looking at this from

226
00:18:08.400 --> 00:18:12.440
different angles. Because we've been doing
the same thing for fifty plus years.

227
00:18:12.720 --> 00:18:15.440
If we're still on the five yard
line, we're not doing something right.

228
00:18:17.119 --> 00:18:21.160
Going out and beating on trees and
screaming in the woods has only taken us

229
00:18:21.240 --> 00:18:26.359
so far in this research that we're
doing to find these answers right, So

230
00:18:26.160 --> 00:18:30.319
let's start there. I think I'm
pretty confident I know where the majority of

231
00:18:30.359 --> 00:18:36.279
your basis for this lies. But
let's talk about the Native American connection.

232
00:18:37.000 --> 00:18:41.599
I doubt it. Actually, Well, let's start at the Native American connection

233
00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:45.160
and talk a little bit about that
basis for you and the knowledge and the

234
00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:51.400
experience that you have talking to the
Native Americans about Sasquatch in general. Well,

235
00:18:51.559 --> 00:18:53.680
where to begin, Where to end? Where to begin? The thing

236
00:18:53.720 --> 00:18:59.759
about Native Americans is, boy,
you can't generalize. That's the first.

237
00:19:00.680 --> 00:19:04.519
Generalizing what Native Americans think is a
good way to get in real trouble right

238
00:19:04.559 --> 00:19:10.759
away. If you take my joke
is, if you have ten Indians and

239
00:19:10.799 --> 00:19:15.680
you put them in a room,
you'll get eleven opinions, because that's how

240
00:19:15.720 --> 00:19:22.000
it is. There's individuality that must
be taken into account when you're talking about

241
00:19:22.039 --> 00:19:26.799
these groups. Everybody's as human individual
and within all the tribes there's a full

242
00:19:26.920 --> 00:19:33.400
range of opinions about everything, ongoing
discussions that have gone on forever and ever,

243
00:19:33.079 --> 00:19:37.839
you know whatever. There's a lot
going on. So the basic thing

244
00:19:37.039 --> 00:19:44.640
is that if I could really stretch
it and kind of generalize across the tribes

245
00:19:44.720 --> 00:19:52.200
I'm familiar with. There are spirits
such as ancestors. There are spirits such

246
00:19:52.200 --> 00:19:59.519
as the ellip kilicum, which is
the click attack words for the people before.

247
00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:07.160
Stay tuned for more Sasquatch Odyssey right
back after these messages. The people

248
00:20:07.200 --> 00:20:12.920
before also are referred to as the
animal people. They're referred to as a

249
00:20:14.000 --> 00:20:18.359
lot of different things, a lot
of different names. Ancestors comes up a

250
00:20:18.359 --> 00:20:25.440
lot. The thing is is that
the tribes, this geometry of space time

251
00:20:25.920 --> 00:20:30.359
where we all live together, this
place we live is run by a tribe

252
00:20:30.440 --> 00:20:33.720
of Indians that are spirit Indians,
you could call them, but really they're

253
00:20:33.720 --> 00:20:41.920
just a very advanced form of the
people before. The people before exist around

254
00:20:41.039 --> 00:20:47.759
us and are the guardians of the
geometry of space time. So when you

255
00:20:48.440 --> 00:20:53.400
get past the flesh and blood level
and you get to the level of consciousness

256
00:20:53.400 --> 00:21:00.680
that underlies flesh and blood, you
see there's physics involved. Tier. There's

257
00:21:00.759 --> 00:21:06.920
a lot of existing, fewer physics
that actually explains what's going on. So

258
00:21:07.640 --> 00:21:11.000
the thing is is that you're going
to see that the tribes field look well,

259
00:21:11.119 --> 00:21:17.759
for example, one time I saw, well, there's an experience I

260
00:21:17.839 --> 00:21:22.839
had where a bunch of tribal members
referred to Bigfoot as him and the big

261
00:21:22.880 --> 00:21:27.559
man and him, and we often
would just use the term him. When

262
00:21:27.559 --> 00:21:33.640
I was in India country wouldn't identify
pass that and we knew who we were

263
00:21:33.680 --> 00:21:40.640
talking about. But that person is
thought of as like our elder brother Indian

264
00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:45.720
person. They look like Big Harry
gorillas, right, But no, to

265
00:21:45.079 --> 00:21:53.680
tribes. That is a elder brother
person, a spirit person helper that most

266
00:21:53.720 --> 00:22:00.640
tribes would tell you protect the tribes
and are the elder brothers of the tribes

267
00:22:00.720 --> 00:22:07.599
helping guide them and protect them.
And so I mean I'm speaking now generally

268
00:22:07.119 --> 00:22:11.319
when I say most tribes, because
really it's specific people within those tribes that

269
00:22:11.799 --> 00:22:17.519
may think that way, and there
may not be more than a handful in

270
00:22:17.559 --> 00:22:21.359
each tribe that think that way.
You don't really see that this knowledge is

271
00:22:21.400 --> 00:22:26.039
really shared widely or anything like that. But it's an entire different view of

272
00:22:26.079 --> 00:22:30.720
the world where everything is alive in
the first place, because remember, in

273
00:22:30.839 --> 00:22:37.519
tribal thought, rocks are alive,
everything has a spirit, plants are alive,

274
00:22:37.759 --> 00:22:41.920
and Bigfoot is just another spirit,
but it's a special spirit and it's

275
00:22:41.960 --> 00:22:48.839
one that's in charge of this geometry
of space time, like a giant tribal

276
00:22:48.880 --> 00:22:55.400
council sitting up there in the sky
running the show. So that's kind of

277
00:22:55.400 --> 00:22:59.680
where Indians think Bigfit's at. That's
not really where white man thinks it's at.

278
00:23:00.039 --> 00:23:03.440
And really speaking, you know,
the massive white men don't think that

279
00:23:03.480 --> 00:23:08.759
way, so you know, it
gets pretty weird. It certainly does concentrate

280
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:12.359
on what you think. You've had
thirty years to take a look at this,

281
00:23:12.440 --> 00:23:15.640
and you said you have a pretty
good grasp of it. Where are

282
00:23:15.720 --> 00:23:22.279
you on Bigfoot as far as the
balance between flesh theory. Yeah, let's

283
00:23:22.519 --> 00:23:26.039
talk a little bit about your theory. So a biologist looks out there and

284
00:23:26.079 --> 00:23:29.440
he sees flesh and blood. He
sees predator and prey. He sees the

285
00:23:29.480 --> 00:23:33.960
gnashing of teeth, he sees a
blood bath, he sees you know,

286
00:23:33.000 --> 00:23:40.640
if he's fancy, he sees evolution, he sees adaptation, he sees how

287
00:23:41.559 --> 00:23:48.279
there is assemblages of creatures and symbiosis, and how energy is transferred through food,

288
00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:55.000
through the ecological biosphere. And you
know, biologists though, that's flesh

289
00:23:55.039 --> 00:23:59.720
and blood. Flesh and blood guys
have a framework. Their framework is usually

290
00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:06.119
Carl Nasi's taxonomy and DNA some mixture
thereof. In other words, they go,

291
00:24:06.240 --> 00:24:11.640
well, for it to be scientifically
valid, we must connect it to

292
00:24:11.839 --> 00:24:15.680
the tree of light, because then
we know where it fits in the tree

293
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:21.559
of life, and therefore we are
scientifically valid, or at least connecting to

294
00:24:21.599 --> 00:24:26.480
an existing scientifically valid framework, which
is the goal of what pretty much all

295
00:24:26.519 --> 00:24:32.680
of the scientifically inclined the Bigfoot researchers
in some way. I mean, I've

296
00:24:32.720 --> 00:24:37.319
seen them argue about it for thirty
years. So there's other frameworks and science

297
00:24:37.400 --> 00:24:42.480
that are very valid, for example, general relativity. This scene as also

298
00:24:42.559 --> 00:24:48.720
a valid description of our existence,
because what we're trying to do here is

299
00:24:48.759 --> 00:24:55.240
say what is existence? If you
want to prove Bigfoot exists, you have

300
00:24:55.319 --> 00:25:03.640
to define what existence is. So
is existence finding a place in Carl Linnaeus's

301
00:25:03.799 --> 00:25:07.480
taxonomy and saying, Okay, it
exists. I found where it belongs.

302
00:25:08.279 --> 00:25:12.880
Is it a place where you examine
DNA and you go, I found where

303
00:25:12.880 --> 00:25:18.200
this DNA fits into the tree of
life. I see the connections between it

304
00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:22.880
and everything else. You know,
these are ways of showing its flesh and

305
00:25:22.880 --> 00:25:29.359
blood ballot. Let us say,
but we also know that physics involves another

306
00:25:29.480 --> 00:25:33.119
way of looking at existence. Where
a physicist looks out there, he doesn't

307
00:25:33.160 --> 00:25:38.759
see flesh and blood. He sees
ninety nine percent empty space and one percent

308
00:25:40.200 --> 00:25:45.759
something he doesn't understand, and he
goes, what is here? Is what's

309
00:25:45.839 --> 00:25:51.640
here? What's going on? And
physics keeps advancing and they give novel prizes

310
00:25:51.759 --> 00:25:56.599
for things like the local reality is
false, because they have now proven that

311
00:25:56.920 --> 00:26:03.279
nothing exists till you look at it, and they've done actual experiments to prove

312
00:26:03.400 --> 00:26:08.559
that theory that nothing does exist though
you look at it. So how do

313
00:26:08.680 --> 00:26:14.519
you square that with the flesh and
blood thing? Okay, you've got to

314
00:26:14.519 --> 00:26:18.000
square the two of them together somehow
if you want to be scientifically valid in

315
00:26:18.079 --> 00:26:25.759
more than one framework or context,
and there's certainly both valid contexts. So

316
00:26:25.839 --> 00:26:32.319
the way I have approached it is
to modify general relativity by actually multiplying both

317
00:26:32.359 --> 00:26:36.799
sides by one over Kappa. But
that's another story. But the thing is,

318
00:26:37.440 --> 00:26:44.359
general relativity is to a physicist a
thing that explains the relationship between the

319
00:26:44.400 --> 00:26:48.839
curvature of space time and the distribution
of matter, energy, and momentum.

320
00:26:49.480 --> 00:26:53.759
And so the two sides of the
equation. One side of the equation is

321
00:26:53.799 --> 00:27:00.680
just a geometry of space time.
The other side is the n and gravity,

322
00:27:00.839 --> 00:27:07.839
gravity and the energy. And what
I'm showing is that by modifying general

323
00:27:07.920 --> 00:27:17.759
relativity you can begin to explain how
consciousness underlies the flesh and blood level of

324
00:27:17.839 --> 00:27:26.359
reality. There's actually another level underneath
flesh and blood that's physical that physics explains,

325
00:27:26.440 --> 00:27:30.240
and it has to do with the
connection between consciousness and with the physical

326
00:27:30.279 --> 00:27:37.200
world around us. In other words, flesh and blood involves creatures with souls,

327
00:27:37.839 --> 00:27:41.720
and so you actually have to understand
the physics of how your soul and

328
00:27:41.759 --> 00:27:48.119
your body are connected to each other
for you to understand how the soul and

329
00:27:48.240 --> 00:27:52.000
body of Bigfoot's connected together. Because
you know, it's something like you,

330
00:27:52.160 --> 00:27:56.359
it looks like you. It doesn't
have a soul like you, it probably

331
00:27:56.440 --> 00:28:00.079
does. Have you ever looked in
the eyes of one least seems like they

332
00:28:00.119 --> 00:28:07.039
have a soul when you do.
So I don't believe in any paranormal anything.

333
00:28:07.359 --> 00:28:14.799
I believe that there is a physics
revolution that is beginning now that will

334
00:28:14.920 --> 00:28:25.119
unfold through modified general relativity that will
enable us all to understand how Bigfoot does

335
00:28:25.160 --> 00:28:32.039
things like turn invisible and be telepathic
and move through solid matter and teleport and

336
00:28:32.119 --> 00:28:36.160
disappear and walk through snow without leaving
footprints, et cetera, et cetera.

337
00:28:36.599 --> 00:28:41.240
So I'm not like any other research
here at this point in time. I'm

338
00:28:41.279 --> 00:28:45.279
actually a hard science guy who sees
how the weird stuff works. At least

339
00:28:45.359 --> 00:28:49.400
I'm going to propose a theory about
it, you know. So that's you

340
00:28:49.440 --> 00:28:52.880
know, that's that's really that's why
I was saying, I doubt you really

341
00:28:53.000 --> 00:28:56.559
knew what I was thinking of advance, you know. But that's where I've

342
00:28:56.559 --> 00:29:00.799
come to after thirty years, is
I've been trying to mix saw these things

343
00:29:00.799 --> 00:29:07.160
together, including explaining Indian lore,
and I found that the modified general relativity

344
00:29:07.759 --> 00:29:14.599
really gives me the science to understand
a lot of the Indian wisdom that I've

345
00:29:14.720 --> 00:29:19.640
learned from my adventures in helping out
the tribes for the last thirty years as

346
00:29:19.680 --> 00:29:25.400
a scientist. So I think that
it brings it all together, is what

347
00:29:25.440 --> 00:29:29.160
I'm trying to say. So did
you start there? Did you start in

348
00:29:29.200 --> 00:29:32.359
the flesh and Blood camp? Did
you start out thinking these things were flesh

349
00:29:32.440 --> 00:29:34.680
and blood? And was it some
of the experiences that you had over the

350
00:29:34.759 --> 00:29:38.160
years. I know you've had some
pretty strange experiences. Can you think of

351
00:29:38.200 --> 00:29:41.799
a couple that maybe you could share
with us that would demonstrate some of these

352
00:29:41.799 --> 00:29:45.799
abilities that you've witnessed personally that you've
seen that these things can do. Sure,

353
00:29:47.319 --> 00:29:51.200
No, you know, from day
one I was right in the middle

354
00:29:51.319 --> 00:29:55.799
because I smelled something and that story
I told you that really smelled like a

355
00:29:55.880 --> 00:29:59.799
live animal is smelled like a wet
dog. And we all know where to

356
00:29:59.799 --> 00:30:03.279
wear dog smells like, you know, but it smelled like a really pungent

357
00:30:03.359 --> 00:30:06.880
wet dog. So I was like, man, that's a living creature,

358
00:30:07.200 --> 00:30:11.319
you know, like it had the
smell of white whatever that is. Yet

359
00:30:11.640 --> 00:30:15.720
I didn't see anything, so it
sat my starter motor. So I was

360
00:30:15.799 --> 00:30:18.720
like, wait a minute, is
it flush and blood or is it?

361
00:30:19.039 --> 00:30:25.039
Like what the hell is going on? Okay, it's a really good problem

362
00:30:25.079 --> 00:30:29.519
how to merge those two sides,
because from the very first experience I was

363
00:30:29.559 --> 00:30:32.960
torn in half. I was like, huh, how does how does that

364
00:30:33.079 --> 00:30:37.880
work? How does that possibly reconcile? You know, like really blown starter

365
00:30:37.960 --> 00:30:42.599
motor and stinky smell and crickets and
the whole thing was just too weird for

366
00:30:42.640 --> 00:30:49.079
words. So I was borderline,
let us say, because like everybody else,

367
00:30:49.680 --> 00:30:56.480
well, I actually became a biologist
for real government biologist, a supervising

368
00:30:56.599 --> 00:31:03.200
government biologist in fact, so believe
me, I could stay, I could

369
00:31:03.279 --> 00:31:07.759
color between the lines, and I
could stay as flesh and blood as anybody

370
00:31:08.000 --> 00:31:11.720
ever. But in my heart I
was always like, no, it's weirder

371
00:31:11.720 --> 00:31:15.359
than that, far weirder than that. I know, I don't understand I

372
00:31:15.359 --> 00:31:21.680
always withheld judgment because I said,
I just have had enough experience as to

373
00:31:21.799 --> 00:31:26.079
know I have no idea what's going
on. It was over my head.

374
00:31:26.440 --> 00:31:32.359
It was far too bizarre, and
it got really, really weird. But

375
00:31:32.519 --> 00:31:37.880
yeah, the early days were really
a mess. One that I could tell

376
00:31:37.880 --> 00:31:41.119
you about that really was a turning
point for me was around nineteen ninety five,

377
00:31:42.440 --> 00:31:47.119
we ran a phone number that was
one eight hundred Bigfoot in Oregon and

378
00:31:47.200 --> 00:31:51.920
Washington, and the idea was,
hey, it's like a nine one one

379
00:31:51.960 --> 00:31:55.640
call and you had a big foot
sighting call, us call one eight hundred

380
00:31:55.680 --> 00:31:59.640
Bigfoot. So we released this number
for five years and we most have got

381
00:32:00.240 --> 00:32:04.240
calls. I mean it drove you
crazy, literally ninety nine hundred calls.

382
00:32:04.319 --> 00:32:08.480
So you know, it was really
no good. But the goal was we

383
00:32:08.519 --> 00:32:15.319
needed a report that happened within twenty
four hours, because we had been collecting

384
00:32:15.400 --> 00:32:20.200
reports for five years and we never
got anything that happened within twenty four hours.

385
00:32:20.200 --> 00:32:23.559
Everything happened two years ago, ten
years ago, last month, six

386
00:32:23.599 --> 00:32:30.240
months ago. People did not come
forward till later. And so one day

387
00:32:30.720 --> 00:32:34.799
we got this twenty four hour report
and it was from the downs right next

388
00:32:34.799 --> 00:32:38.559
door to hood River where our office
was, and I called up Peter and

389
00:32:38.920 --> 00:32:43.440
Todd and all these guys and I
said, hey, we got a fresh

390
00:32:43.519 --> 00:32:49.680
report. And it was seven big
feet walked down this valley and over the

391
00:32:49.920 --> 00:32:53.799
ridge at the end of a box
canyon out of the valley, and three

392
00:32:53.880 --> 00:32:59.839
people had called to report this,
and so it was like, Wow,

393
00:33:00.119 --> 00:33:02.960
something must have happened, because I
was sitting there by the phone and rang

394
00:33:04.039 --> 00:33:06.759
over and over and I was like, hey, wow, you know,

395
00:33:06.920 --> 00:33:09.680
big time action here. So we
raced over there. It was a Sunday

396
00:33:10.480 --> 00:33:15.920
and we got there. There were
three groups of people in this valley,

397
00:33:15.920 --> 00:33:17.640
one on the left, one on
the right, one in the middle,

398
00:33:19.240 --> 00:33:23.640
and they were all separately doing things
like tobogganing and sledding and shit. So

399
00:33:24.279 --> 00:33:31.400
we interviewed everybody. Everybody said seven
big feet walked down the valley and over

400
00:33:31.440 --> 00:33:36.160
the hill and we all saw them. And these groups did not know each

401
00:33:36.160 --> 00:33:38.319
other, at least they claimed not
to know each other. Okay, so

402
00:33:38.920 --> 00:33:44.599
then we actually Todd and Peter the
big trackers got down on their hands and

403
00:33:44.680 --> 00:33:50.240
knees and they went looking for tracks
through that entire valley and they found rabbit

404
00:33:50.319 --> 00:33:53.759
tracks, and they found mouse tracks, and they found every other kind of

405
00:33:53.799 --> 00:33:58.680
track you can imagine in that snow, but they did not find a big

406
00:33:58.720 --> 00:34:05.680
footure. So after spending literally six
hours on their knees, they just said,

407
00:34:05.880 --> 00:34:08.760
no, everybody's yanking our chain.
This is blowney and we all went

408
00:34:08.800 --> 00:34:12.360
back to the office and they went
home and I went home. That was

409
00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:17.239
that, and it went down in
the files as that was a mistake.

410
00:34:17.400 --> 00:34:22.480
They were all mistaken. That's what
Peter and Todd decided that they were all

411
00:34:22.519 --> 00:34:28.440
mistaken. There were no big feet. I was the one weirdo that was

412
00:34:28.480 --> 00:34:31.960
like, nah, something else was
going on. Those people were shook up,

413
00:34:32.039 --> 00:34:36.119
and they weren't lying. I believe
them, you know, like I

414
00:34:36.239 --> 00:34:40.199
believed the twenty witnesses, right.
I was like, wait a minute,

415
00:34:40.599 --> 00:34:45.440
those twenty people have no reason to
make this up, you know, Like,

416
00:34:45.920 --> 00:34:50.360
why didn't it leave tracks? That
was my problem. Everybody else was

417
00:34:50.480 --> 00:34:53.679
like, oh, the witnesses,
you know, their credibility, Their credibility

418
00:34:53.679 --> 00:34:59.039
of the witnesses was in question.
But I was like, nah, why

419
00:34:59.039 --> 00:35:04.599
didn't they leave That's the question.
So that's the sort of thing that led

420
00:35:04.679 --> 00:35:12.199
me to make physics kind of questions
more prominent in my own research, because

421
00:35:12.239 --> 00:35:15.760
I said, there's got to be
physics that explains that. That's got to

422
00:35:15.800 --> 00:35:20.679
work somehow, that's got to be
what happens later in life. I found

423
00:35:20.719 --> 00:35:24.800
other people that had witnessed the same
thing. Some of my tribal friends had

424
00:35:24.840 --> 00:35:30.280
told me about Bigfoot walking through the
snow leaving no tracks. So, just

425
00:35:30.320 --> 00:35:35.840
because they were like three or four
really trusted friends of mine, I said,

426
00:35:35.920 --> 00:35:39.800
you know, that's really what happened
that day back in ninety five,

427
00:35:39.960 --> 00:35:44.280
and I knew there was something to
it. I knew they could walk through

428
00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:47.599
snow without leaving tracks, but I
still didn't understand how they could do that.

429
00:35:49.719 --> 00:35:52.639
So that's why I went off in
my direction. I said, well,

430
00:35:52.320 --> 00:35:55.159
I'll have to figure out the physics
of how they do that. You

431
00:35:55.239 --> 00:35:59.840
mentioned some other things that have come
up on the show before. I've had

432
00:36:00.039 --> 00:36:04.559
Hard Bouchard on. He's written Sasquatch
Evidence of an Enigma, and he has

433
00:36:04.679 --> 00:36:07.880
interviewed tons of people who have had
really strange encounters. One that comes to

434
00:36:07.880 --> 00:36:12.840
mind about a gentleman who claimed to
be in a cabin and the hand of

435
00:36:12.840 --> 00:36:15.800
a sasquatch comes through the wall,
touches him on the forehead, knocks him

436
00:36:15.880 --> 00:36:20.519
unconscious. And he wakes up like
six or eight hours later. The cloaking

437
00:36:20.519 --> 00:36:22.880
thing is always something that comes up
in the community. A matter of fact,

438
00:36:23.000 --> 00:36:25.880
I'm a guest on a show tonight, and when I was talking to

439
00:36:25.920 --> 00:36:29.360
the host of that show the other
day in preparation for that, he was

440
00:36:29.360 --> 00:36:31.320
showing me a video that a lady
shared with him. I think her name

441
00:36:31.360 --> 00:36:36.400
is Barbara. Shoot, She's got
all these videos of what she claims to

442
00:36:36.440 --> 00:36:39.280
be cloaking bigfoot. I mean,
I could see something that looks very much

443
00:36:39.280 --> 00:36:44.920
like the Predator movies from the nineties
and early two thousands, when it's in

444
00:36:44.920 --> 00:36:49.880
that cloaking state. Have you yourself
witnessed any of that kind of stuff,

445
00:36:49.920 --> 00:36:54.000
cloaking, disappearing, or being able
to walk through or travel through walls.

446
00:36:54.079 --> 00:36:59.000
I mean, is that something that
you've experienced? Yeah, what's many times?

447
00:36:59.079 --> 00:37:04.199
I'm five, ten times? Yeah, I've lost count, you know,

448
00:37:04.320 --> 00:37:07.840
like I've had I've had a big
foot if you would call. I

449
00:37:07.920 --> 00:37:13.800
prefer to refer to them as the
elliptylicum. The people before stand next to

450
00:37:13.800 --> 00:37:20.519
me completely invisible and laugh and laugh
at me. I've had them invisibly.

451
00:37:20.679 --> 00:37:27.360
While I was driving my van,
come into my van and on the inside

452
00:37:27.480 --> 00:37:31.760
ear that's facing the console in the
middle of the truck. Someone comes right

453
00:37:31.800 --> 00:37:36.000
up to my ear goes like that, like, hey, you know,

454
00:37:36.159 --> 00:37:43.360
like and I'm talking about closed windows
moving on a highway. I've had.

455
00:37:43.679 --> 00:37:49.280
I've had so many whack ball experiences
that you know, my credibility will be

456
00:37:49.360 --> 00:37:53.079
called into question if I tell them
all back to back. But yeah,

457
00:37:53.239 --> 00:38:00.440
as my dear friend Bobby Bigay,
who has passed, told me, they

458
00:38:00.519 --> 00:38:06.639
have an agreement with the Creator to
remain invisible on this plane of existence.

459
00:38:07.320 --> 00:38:13.199
Actually, Bobby was the first fisherman
of Salilo village, so he was an

460
00:38:13.199 --> 00:38:17.800
elder, an elder of a Acumen
Nation subtribe. So yeah, I mean

461
00:38:19.000 --> 00:38:22.760
I could go into details. You
guys like the stories. Here's one.

462
00:38:22.239 --> 00:38:28.239
Early on, I had so many
weird things happened to me that I made

463
00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:31.760
up a law, which is,
the more you investigate Bigfoot, no matter

464
00:38:31.800 --> 00:38:37.400
who you are, it gets weirder
and weirder. At the beginning, you

465
00:38:37.480 --> 00:38:38.760
can just say, hey, I
saw a bigfoot cross in the road.

466
00:38:38.880 --> 00:38:44.000
Hey I knocked on a tree,
something knocked. But it just keeps getting

467
00:38:44.039 --> 00:38:46.199
weirder and weirder and weirder. The
deeper you get into it, and the

468
00:38:46.239 --> 00:38:50.840
further you go and you will have
more and more questions. You don't get

469
00:38:50.920 --> 00:38:55.440
answers, you get more questions a
very long time. And yeah, I've

470
00:38:55.480 --> 00:39:00.960
a s I'm cobbled together a theory
that I'm like Goodwin these days. But

471
00:39:00.360 --> 00:39:05.800
I mean, there's just this theory
right. The thing is, this kid

472
00:39:05.880 --> 00:39:09.840
disappears in Oregon at a rest stop
I can't remember Highway twenty six, I

473
00:39:09.880 --> 00:39:14.760
think it was. He walks off
into the woods and a big search party's

474
00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:17.079
for him. They can't find the
kid. The kid has three dogs with

475
00:39:17.159 --> 00:39:22.280
him and he's missing for three days. They have this huge search team put

476
00:39:22.320 --> 00:39:29.239
together. They get the pros mount
Hood Search and Rescue from around here at

477
00:39:29.239 --> 00:39:32.159
that time, just like nineteen ninety
five. Also, they assemble in a

478
00:39:32.239 --> 00:39:37.320
rest stop and the kid walks into
the rest stop and he's three years old

479
00:39:37.960 --> 00:39:42.480
and he walks out of the woods
right into the rest stop and they go,

480
00:39:42.599 --> 00:39:45.320
whoa, you know, where's the
kid been for three days? And

481
00:39:45.320 --> 00:39:50.679
he's fine and they go wow,
as dogs must have kept him warm,

482
00:39:50.760 --> 00:39:52.960
you know, the three dogs gathered
around him and they go wow, you

483
00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:55.159
know, and the kid goes,
yeah, yeah, the dogs kept me

484
00:39:55.199 --> 00:40:00.400
warm. But the big monster showed
me where the stream was, where the

485
00:40:00.440 --> 00:40:05.039
berries were to eat, and stay
tuned for more Sasquatch odyssey. Right back

486
00:40:05.079 --> 00:40:12.199
after these messages, and so all
the adults he says this on TV,

487
00:40:12.360 --> 00:40:15.199
and I see it on the Channel
six news, right, and I'm like,

488
00:40:15.320 --> 00:40:20.599
whoa, you know, wholl I
know what that means. And of

489
00:40:20.639 --> 00:40:22.320
course the news and all the adults
are like, oh, you know,

490
00:40:22.400 --> 00:40:28.400
little kids, the stories the little
kids tell. And I'm thinking to myself,

491
00:40:29.440 --> 00:40:34.400
Nah, there's something going on where
if a human babies and genuine need

492
00:40:35.039 --> 00:40:39.280
whoever, these creatures are actually have
like some compassion and they like to help

493
00:40:39.360 --> 00:40:44.960
out because they feel it's necessary.
So I'm thinking like that and going,

494
00:40:45.039 --> 00:40:50.480
wow, something's going on here,
you know. So I talked to the

495
00:40:50.480 --> 00:40:55.559
Cracker, the big time tracker who
ran Mount Hood Search and Rescue about his

496
00:40:55.719 --> 00:41:00.760
whole thing, because I want to
find out about what the kid said.

497
00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:02.639
Right, I'm trying to interview him, going, hey, hey, the

498
00:41:02.760 --> 00:41:06.360
kid, I want to know what
the kid said. I don't care what

499
00:41:06.400 --> 00:41:10.679
the adults said, forget it.
What was the kid saying? So he

500
00:41:10.719 --> 00:41:14.920
goes, well, no, I
got a story for you, he said.

501
00:41:14.960 --> 00:41:16.239
You know, I tracked him,
and sure enough, the kid and

502
00:41:16.280 --> 00:41:21.519
the three dogs. It was light
snow, like two inches of snow.

503
00:41:21.639 --> 00:41:24.239
So he said, there was like
a kid and three dogs, and then

504
00:41:24.400 --> 00:41:31.519
suddenly there were these really big footprints
alongside him, and they walked together for

505
00:41:31.639 --> 00:41:37.639
quite a while, and then the
big footprints turned into deer tracks and I

506
00:41:37.679 --> 00:41:42.880
said really, he said, yeah, like a shape shifter. I said

507
00:41:42.920 --> 00:41:45.519
really. He said, yeah.
Don't tell anybody I told you that,

508
00:41:46.239 --> 00:41:51.000
but that's what I actually saw.
And I said, okay, I won't

509
00:41:51.039 --> 00:41:55.280
tell you now. Of course he's
dead and I can speak candidly. But

510
00:41:55.960 --> 00:42:00.960
that's one of the really strange stories
where I investigated that at the time for

511
00:42:01.039 --> 00:42:06.840
the Bigfoot research project, and I
was like, whoa, what's really going

512
00:42:06.920 --> 00:42:13.880
on here is way weirder than anybody
imagines. And everyone else who investigated it

513
00:42:13.960 --> 00:42:15.840
was like, oh, yeah,
wow, the dogs saved the kid and

514
00:42:15.920 --> 00:42:21.000
everybody's good and we're all good and
you know, and I was like,

515
00:42:21.199 --> 00:42:27.719
no, this was really freaking weird. And I became convinced at that point

516
00:42:27.719 --> 00:42:30.639
that Bigfoot was a shape shifter.
I was like, well, other people

517
00:42:30.760 --> 00:42:34.800
might not know that, but I've
seen the hard facts now I'm like,

518
00:42:34.920 --> 00:42:38.559
no, Bigfoot's a shape shifter.
This guy had no reason to know swear

519
00:42:38.599 --> 00:42:43.719
me to secrecy and tell me the
story. So I was like, yeah,

520
00:42:43.760 --> 00:42:47.519
you know, there's a lot of
weird stuff like that. I met

521
00:42:47.559 --> 00:42:52.199
a really old rancher. Well.
I used to weekly. I helped set

522
00:42:52.280 --> 00:42:59.119
up the Western Bigfoot Society with Ray
Crow, and I financed a computer for

523
00:42:59.199 --> 00:43:06.199
him to do the track record his
newsletter. That was a Bigfoot news letter

524
00:43:06.280 --> 00:43:09.079
that was published through I don't know, five or six years back in the

525
00:43:09.199 --> 00:43:15.280
nineties. And I used to go
weekly to the Western Bigfoot Society meetings and

526
00:43:15.320 --> 00:43:20.840
I would meet the most amazing people
in the back of the room that had

527
00:43:20.880 --> 00:43:24.000
come to the meetings. But we're
like two of parade to get up in

528
00:43:24.039 --> 00:43:28.519
front of everybody and stuff. And
I would mill around and try to talk

529
00:43:28.559 --> 00:43:30.880
to the old ladies at the back
of the room, going why are you

530
00:43:30.960 --> 00:43:36.119
here? What's happening? So I
met this lady who ran a gift shop

531
00:43:36.159 --> 00:43:42.239
on the Oregon coast, and she
had a friend with back problems, really

532
00:43:42.360 --> 00:43:46.800
bad lower back problems, and was
going to need surgery. One night,

533
00:43:47.000 --> 00:43:52.079
her and her friend. Her friend
came over and she took her friend to

534
00:43:52.119 --> 00:43:59.679
meet her friends, and her friends
lived in the hill on the hill behind

535
00:43:59.719 --> 00:44:05.519
the IF shop on Highway six in
Oregon on the coast. They went up

536
00:44:05.559 --> 00:44:10.199
this hill and this woman was the
woman with the bad back, and her

537
00:44:10.280 --> 00:44:16.599
friend said, now don't look face
me and just relax. And so she

538
00:44:17.719 --> 00:44:22.719
faced her friend and she felt these
hands all over her back and all over

539
00:44:22.960 --> 00:44:27.719
up and down her back, rubbing
her back and legs. Her back pain

540
00:44:27.840 --> 00:44:31.199
went away, and so they had
healed her. Her friend said, now,

541
00:44:31.199 --> 00:44:35.760
don't tell anybody about this. But
she had come to the Western Bigfoot

542
00:44:35.800 --> 00:44:38.840
Society and thought maybe she would get
up and tell people about it. And

543
00:44:38.880 --> 00:44:40.719
I said, well, no,
I'm glad you told me, though,

544
00:44:42.039 --> 00:44:45.400
I said, you know, I
find that really interesting. I met another

545
00:44:45.519 --> 00:44:53.199
woman who thought a brand new Corvette
Stingray in nineteen sixty eight and was speeding

546
00:44:53.280 --> 00:44:59.679
up the Spirit Mountain Highway on Mount
Saint Helen's the first day she had this

547
00:44:59.800 --> 00:45:05.599
car, and she just took it
right off through a guard rail, off

548
00:45:05.639 --> 00:45:08.880
a cliff and down into a ravine, about one hundred feet down a ravine,

549
00:45:09.239 --> 00:45:15.320
and she remembers lying all mangled in
the car at the bottom of the

550
00:45:15.400 --> 00:45:20.639
ravine. For she has a memory
of it. But the next thing she

551
00:45:20.800 --> 00:45:25.159
remembers, R and her are backed
up on the road. She's next to

552
00:45:25.199 --> 00:45:29.800
the car on the road and the
cars on the road, and the police

553
00:45:29.880 --> 00:45:35.679
come and they take her away by
ambulance and her life is saved, and

554
00:45:35.760 --> 00:45:40.679
she reread its Bigfoot with saving her
life once again. What was illustrated was

555
00:45:40.760 --> 00:45:46.920
some kind of concern when a human
life is really in need of help.

556
00:45:47.280 --> 00:45:51.960
And I thought that was really interesting. But like that, and that's not

557
00:45:52.079 --> 00:45:55.800
so what I would say. That's
not really a woo woo type story so

558
00:45:55.880 --> 00:46:00.480
much. Although it's pretty difficult to
imagine how they got the car from the

559
00:46:00.519 --> 00:46:04.559
bottom of the ravine up one hundred
feet back onto the road. I mean

560
00:46:04.599 --> 00:46:07.840
it took some serious strength, man, it took something. I would meet

561
00:46:07.960 --> 00:46:13.280
so many people when I did the
four hundred and eighty five sighting reports that

562
00:46:14.000 --> 00:46:20.000
would tell me the wackiest stories.
One family went camping and they found a

563
00:46:20.119 --> 00:46:22.800
track and they cast it and they
were all like, oh, man,

564
00:46:23.199 --> 00:46:27.400
wow, this is great. I
found a Bigfoot track. And they weren't

565
00:46:27.440 --> 00:46:30.960
even that into bigfoot, but once
they found this track, they were just

566
00:46:31.039 --> 00:46:34.960
thrilled and they were all about all
bigfoots around, so they of course,

567
00:46:35.519 --> 00:46:39.280
we're looking all around the campsite for
where Bigfoot might be in They got in

568
00:46:39.280 --> 00:46:47.599
their car to drive home, and
the car radio suddenly came on and something

569
00:46:49.199 --> 00:46:57.079
kept chanting, Chota Chota, Chota
choctwa, and the AM radio dial was

570
00:46:57.119 --> 00:47:01.559
set to the lowest possible frequency,
below five fifty on the AM radio,

571
00:47:02.320 --> 00:47:07.880
and they couldn't stop this chanting from
coming through the AM radio. And they

572
00:47:08.199 --> 00:47:14.360
were convinced that this had something to
do with Bigfoot because they had been getting

573
00:47:14.400 --> 00:47:19.239
these vibes to get out of the
area, and they've been filled with fear,

574
00:47:19.360 --> 00:47:22.679
and they thought, you know,
the old inexplicable fear thing you hear

575
00:47:22.719 --> 00:47:25.599
about so often. They were all
like, oh, we got to get

576
00:47:25.599 --> 00:47:30.119
out of here. And then this
thing was chanting. The radio was chanting,

577
00:47:30.199 --> 00:47:32.760
And I always thought, well,
that's a pretty strange one. But

578
00:47:34.000 --> 00:47:37.320
yeah, I'm like I said,
I've just got so many either my own

579
00:47:37.360 --> 00:47:46.480
experiences were trusted weird experiences that I
investigated myself where I said, something very

580
00:47:46.519 --> 00:47:52.000
strange occurred here. There's really an
endless list of them. Like I said,

581
00:47:52.079 --> 00:47:57.679
the more you get into it,
the more you see the anomalous things

582
00:47:57.760 --> 00:48:00.360
you see, what doesn't fit the
eight pattern. You go, oh,

583
00:48:00.440 --> 00:48:05.400
yeah, tracks. But then after
you look at enough tracks and you're cast

584
00:48:05.519 --> 00:48:10.679
enough tracks, you go, there's
a weight problem because they're either too deep

585
00:48:10.840 --> 00:48:15.360
or they're too shallow, or there's
too few. Yeah, there's never too

586
00:48:15.440 --> 00:48:17.960
many. Do You never know where
they stop and where they suck. A

587
00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:22.199
lot of times they'll be in the
middle of a soft sand bar with no

588
00:48:22.280 --> 00:48:27.519
other tracks around. So you start
to wonder about the tracks after you really

589
00:48:27.599 --> 00:48:32.440
study the details of the tracks.
And speaking of science, nobody has ever

590
00:48:32.480 --> 00:48:37.800
sat down and said, well,
if I have a two inch deep track

591
00:48:37.960 --> 00:48:44.440
in this substrate, what is the
compressibility of this substrate and therefore, how

592
00:48:44.519 --> 00:48:51.320
much does this creature weigh if it
can push this soil down two inches and

593
00:48:51.440 --> 00:48:55.199
compress it with a foot with that
much surface area, Because you know,

594
00:48:55.320 --> 00:49:00.000
it's a lot of weight. But
no one's ever even tried to calculate.

595
00:49:00.360 --> 00:49:07.519
Which is an area that I think
would lead to interesting discoveries scientifically, because

596
00:49:07.199 --> 00:49:14.239
all the tracks I've seen don't add
up like a normal animal. They disappear,

597
00:49:14.400 --> 00:49:16.199
they don't go anywhere Where do they
end? Where do they start?

598
00:49:16.559 --> 00:49:20.880
I mean, that's how it is
for me, and I've found a few

599
00:49:20.920 --> 00:49:23.039
real tracks out there, at least
I think they were. You know,

600
00:49:23.360 --> 00:49:28.440
once again, this is kind of
the thing about the science and Bigfoot.

601
00:49:28.480 --> 00:49:35.840
It's science or science ism, because
nobody's narrowed the problem space by doing actual

602
00:49:35.920 --> 00:49:40.480
experimental work and said, okay,
we can narrow the problem space here scientifically

603
00:49:40.519 --> 00:49:45.000
speaking, and at least do that. Now, this brings up the second

604
00:49:45.000 --> 00:49:50.760
problem, which is there's a location
problem. When all is said and done,

605
00:49:50.960 --> 00:49:54.760
everyone knows where the hotspots are when
you compare it to other discoveries of

606
00:49:54.760 --> 00:50:00.400
other species, like the coalescent,
the confirming example found thirty seven miles away

607
00:50:00.400 --> 00:50:06.400
in the Commoro silence fourteen years later. I think it was so from the

608
00:50:06.440 --> 00:50:10.800
first Patterson film till now, and
not that that's even a solid that's anecdotal

609
00:50:10.840 --> 00:50:16.880
evidence. Anyhow, there's been no
type specimen and no confirming type specimen with

610
00:50:16.960 --> 00:50:21.960
bigfoots, So you know there's got
to be a reason for that, right

611
00:50:22.519 --> 00:50:27.000
you know. That's the thing is
that people don't look at the next generation

612
00:50:27.079 --> 00:50:34.000
of bigfoot researchers will study all the
anomalies in the data in this generation's research,

613
00:50:34.199 --> 00:50:37.840
and they will understand a different level
of things. Is my prediction.

614
00:50:38.199 --> 00:50:43.400
Hopeful prediction. Yes, I think
you're definitely right there. We've mentioned it

615
00:50:43.440 --> 00:50:45.639
a couple of times. I would
be remiss if I didn't ask you.

616
00:50:45.719 --> 00:50:49.840
It is anecdotal, but it is
that thing that everybody always goes to.

617
00:50:50.000 --> 00:50:52.880
You mentioned it early on in the
interview. You got to pick a side

618
00:50:52.960 --> 00:50:57.360
one way or the other on the
PG film, And I'm honestly, I'm

619
00:50:57.360 --> 00:51:00.559
fifty fifty most days. There's some
days I'll look at it, and then

620
00:51:00.599 --> 00:51:01.920
there's some days I go back and
I'm like, God, you know that

621
00:51:01.960 --> 00:51:05.719
could be a guy in a suit, right, And I know there's a

622
00:51:05.760 --> 00:51:09.159
new AI image out there that I've
talked about with other people that are floating

623
00:51:09.199 --> 00:51:14.079
around where they filled in some of
the gaps and the picture whatever. I

624
00:51:14.079 --> 00:51:16.400
said all that to say, where
are you on the PG film's validity?

625
00:51:16.440 --> 00:51:20.199
Do you think that's a real creature
that we're seeing in that film? You

626
00:51:20.280 --> 00:51:25.159
probably don't realize. I published a
paper in nineteen ninety eight name Towards the

627
00:51:25.280 --> 00:51:31.159
Resolution of the Bigfoot Phenomenon, where
we spent five hundred thousand dollars to in

628
00:51:31.239 --> 00:51:37.760
fact investigate the Patterson film and higher
scientists to prove it was a hoax.

629
00:51:37.960 --> 00:51:43.000
Or a guy in a gorilla suit. And Jeff Glickman and the Botech led

630
00:51:43.119 --> 00:51:47.199
up the whole scientific research thing,
and we went through the whole banana,

631
00:51:47.559 --> 00:51:53.519
and I got a copy of the
Patterson film from Patty Patterson. I paid

632
00:51:53.559 --> 00:52:02.639
her twenty thousand dollars to digitize the
only remaining first generation copy of the film

633
00:52:02.679 --> 00:52:09.199
from her safety deposit box. Took
it to Turner Network Studios digitizing facility,

634
00:52:09.280 --> 00:52:16.559
and New Jersey digitized the film that
an incredible resolution, stabilized it twenty years

635
00:52:16.599 --> 00:52:22.960
before the rest of you did all
this research into the different photoemulsion layers of

636
00:52:23.000 --> 00:52:28.239
red, green, and blue and
looked at the Patterson film and each one

637
00:52:28.280 --> 00:52:31.639
of those layers. I mean bottom
line is and this is where I think

638
00:52:31.679 --> 00:52:37.599
common sense has to take people by
the hand and show them that this left

639
00:52:37.599 --> 00:52:42.639
brain stuff is really getting carried away. Patterson film is really of a limited

640
00:52:42.800 --> 00:52:49.960
use because if you look at the
Bigfoot phenomenon as a logic problem, there's

641
00:52:50.519 --> 00:52:59.039
four possible origins for the bigfoot phenomenon, and that is the phenomenon is people

642
00:52:59.119 --> 00:53:01.480
keep saying they see the giant.
People find these tracks, they find hair

643
00:53:01.559 --> 00:53:05.760
samples, they heard these knocks,
right I mean, that's the big Foot

644
00:53:05.760 --> 00:53:12.079
phenomenon. It's all these stories and
some tracks and some samples. So there's

645
00:53:12.119 --> 00:53:15.360
four things that could possibly cause it. Right, you could have a misidentified

646
00:53:15.400 --> 00:53:22.119
animal like a bear. You could
have aped a guy in a gorilla suit.

647
00:53:22.039 --> 00:53:28.320
You could have a mass hallucination where
everybody just wants to believe in a

648
00:53:28.320 --> 00:53:34.079
Bigfoot. Or you could actually have
sightings of an uncataloged animal. That's number

649
00:53:34.119 --> 00:53:39.639
four. And so the Patterson film
eliminates two of those four possibilities. You

650
00:53:39.719 --> 00:53:43.519
know it isn't a guy in a
gorilla suit. That doesn't add up,

651
00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:46.519
and you know that it's not a
mass illuction. Wait, let me take

652
00:53:46.559 --> 00:53:51.679
that back. You know it's not
a mass illucination. It really gets down

653
00:53:51.719 --> 00:53:55.559
to it's either a hoax or an
uncataloged animal. And so the Patterson film

654
00:53:55.599 --> 00:54:00.639
forces you to narrow down the possibilities
to those two. That's what it's good

655
00:54:00.679 --> 00:54:06.079
for. Thanks to the Patterson film, we know it's either a hoax or

656
00:54:06.079 --> 00:54:09.280
it's a real animal. That's all
we know from the Patterson film. That's

657
00:54:09.320 --> 00:54:14.719
all we will ever know from the
Patterson film. That's where I say common

658
00:54:14.760 --> 00:54:19.760
sense has to take charge. Let
it go how about doing some other research,

659
00:54:19.800 --> 00:54:24.119
you guys, after sixty years of
poring over this thing, I blew

660
00:54:24.199 --> 00:54:28.400
five hundred grand on it. All
right, you know what happened in my

661
00:54:28.480 --> 00:54:34.079
Patterson film study. Everybody ignored it. They pretended like it was never done.

662
00:54:34.559 --> 00:54:37.599
They reinvented the wheel. Everybody went
out and did the same thing all

663
00:54:37.679 --> 00:54:44.760
over again, over and over and
over. All the conclusions we reached back

664
00:54:44.760 --> 00:54:51.280
in our nineteen ninety eight paper they
suddenly rediscovered over and over and over.

665
00:54:51.880 --> 00:54:57.000
It was completely ignored by everybody,
all the big foot researchers and all the

666
00:54:57.039 --> 00:55:02.400
real scientists. So I learned my
lesson with the Patterson film, which is

667
00:55:02.440 --> 00:55:07.199
that, yeah, okay, you
can learn something from the Patterson film,

668
00:55:07.239 --> 00:55:10.440
whether it's a hoax or a real
animal is basically you get down to those

669
00:55:10.480 --> 00:55:15.199
and then you've got to take it
from there and leave the Patterson film,

670
00:55:15.239 --> 00:55:17.599
because you're never going to figure out
from the Patterson film whether it's a hoax

671
00:55:17.679 --> 00:55:22.480
or a real animal. I mean, we've been trying for sixty years.

672
00:55:22.039 --> 00:55:25.760
Maybe we will figure it out one
day, but I don't think it's worth

673
00:55:25.880 --> 00:55:31.519
the return on investment. I can
speak to that, having invested so much

674
00:55:32.159 --> 00:55:37.079
so I'm like, no, it's
time to move on, find something else

675
00:55:37.119 --> 00:55:42.159
to study. One of the things
that we concluded at the very end of

676
00:55:42.159 --> 00:55:46.039
our paper was that one of the
best things you could do was to get

677
00:55:46.119 --> 00:55:52.039
all the Bigfoot artifacts that were floating
around out there, liked the Patterson film

678
00:55:52.079 --> 00:55:57.480
and get it under curation so that
future researchers would have access to the data

679
00:55:57.559 --> 00:56:00.480
and would have access to the We
did the second, the first copy of

680
00:56:00.519 --> 00:56:05.440
the Patterson film. The original's gone, but you can still get a copy

681
00:56:05.440 --> 00:56:09.039
of the first copy and preserve it
for future generations to study. Because we

682
00:56:09.159 --> 00:56:13.800
couldn't get to the end, we
couldn't prove it was a guy in a

683
00:56:13.800 --> 00:56:19.079
guerrilla suit, nor would we therefore
prove it was any flesh and blood thing

684
00:56:19.119 --> 00:56:22.760
either. Yeah, I totally have
to you know. In the end,

685
00:56:22.000 --> 00:56:25.000
through all those words, I'm in
the same place you were. Who knows,

686
00:56:25.760 --> 00:56:30.960
fifty fifty five hundred grand poorer fifty
fifty okay, Yeah, Well,

687
00:56:30.960 --> 00:56:35.639
I'm glad I didn't spend half a
million dollars to get to my fifty fifty.

688
00:56:35.760 --> 00:56:37.800
Yeah. Really, it's not worth
it. I hope I saved you

689
00:56:37.840 --> 00:56:42.760
the money. So I guess the
last word is this. Every time I

690
00:56:42.800 --> 00:56:45.320
do a show like this and it
goes outside of the flesh and blood camp,

691
00:56:45.360 --> 00:56:50.440
I'll always get emails. I get
people sending me messages saying that guy

692
00:56:50.519 --> 00:56:52.320
was full of shit. You know
that story is not true. I know

693
00:56:52.360 --> 00:56:55.159
you well enough to know that you
don't give a shit what other people think.

694
00:56:55.480 --> 00:57:00.559
So I'll give you the last word
on where you are. You've gotten

695
00:57:00.599 --> 00:57:05.920
to your hypothesis, on your theory
on this bigfoot thing. Is there anything

696
00:57:05.960 --> 00:57:08.079
that you would leave as far as
parting words? You stepped away from this

697
00:57:08.119 --> 00:57:12.960
for almost thirty years and here you
are back on the scene for all of

698
00:57:13.079 --> 00:57:15.320
us that are in this for you
know, a short just a blip on

699
00:57:15.360 --> 00:57:20.440
the map, basically compared to how
much time you've given the subject. Is

700
00:57:20.440 --> 00:57:25.079
there any advice for anybody that's listening
that is into this subject and they want

701
00:57:25.119 --> 00:57:30.159
to take it seriously and do some
research. Is there any last words for

702
00:57:30.199 --> 00:57:32.400
them that you would leave to them? As the generation coming up, it's

703
00:57:32.440 --> 00:57:37.079
going to be looking at all this
data that we've talked about, question everything.

704
00:57:37.480 --> 00:57:42.719
Why No, I'm just being an
asshole. My advice is follow your

705
00:57:42.760 --> 00:57:50.519
intuition and ignore all these assholes instead, think about Chewbacca. Yeah, that'll

706
00:57:50.559 --> 00:57:53.679
get you closer. Yeah, there
you go. That's my advice for the

707
00:57:53.760 --> 00:57:59.639
kids. You're right, I don't
really care anymore about other people's opinions.

708
00:58:00.000 --> 00:58:05.239
Tremendously. It's one of the most
fascinating subjects ever. I would have to

709
00:58:05.239 --> 00:58:13.800
say is it's really interesting, and
it really connects everything together. It's really

710
00:58:13.800 --> 00:58:19.159
amazing. It's one of the most
worthwhile subjects of study. That's what I

711
00:58:19.159 --> 00:58:22.480
would say. Well, there you
heard it, folks. Henry Franzoni,

712
00:58:22.559 --> 00:58:23.920
thanks so much for coming on the
show. I've had a blast talking to

713
00:58:23.960 --> 00:58:28.039
you, and I really appreciate you
sharing your stories and your perspectives. If

714
00:58:28.119 --> 00:58:31.239
yes, I'm happy too. I'm
glad. I'm glad you like stories.

715
00:58:31.320 --> 00:58:37.000
Yeah. Generally speaking, I am
about to I should pump my book one

716
00:58:37.119 --> 00:58:42.920
last sec I'm publishing a book called
Failing in a Cooler Way, How I

717
00:58:43.079 --> 00:58:46.480
Failed to Find Bigfoot. That's the
name of it. And it's an ironic

718
00:58:46.559 --> 00:58:51.239
title because I think I actually have
found it, you know, But that's

719
00:58:51.320 --> 00:58:57.280
for you to decide. They say
you don't want to go home, but

720
00:58:57.840 --> 00:59:20.440
jesting and no, I don't want
to fee the world out that inside Jesus

721
00:59:30.079 --> 00:59:37.159
trying this joy that chime everything calling
right back, Ride back with my joy
