Brian, you've been so busy. I mean, you're like, you're just
super duper. You're it's it's I just I don't know how you keep up
with it. It is definitely a full time job, man, But it
is the best thing I've ever done. I love it, you know,
you know, and I've talked about that so many times, about how how
much I enjoy what I get to do every day. So if you do
what you love, it's not work. So you know what we're gonna do
today, Brian we're gonna we're gonna chat about everything that you're doing. Uh
So the audience some some already know who you are, so may not know
who you are. So we may have some new members out there and they
may learn something new about you that they didn't know before. So briefly,
I guess before let's before you get into the podcast thing and and your channel
on your network. Um, you know a little bit about you. You
know, how'd you get into this? What you know, what'd you do
prior to this? Can you share that with the audience. Sure, it
seems weird talking about it because I feel like everybody already knows. But I'll
pretend like I'm talking to that one person who's never heard this. Before I
started out, you know, I was in law enforcement for sixteen years.
I have a cop background, so you know, I didn't really get into
the cryptid thing until after I got out of law enforcement. You know,
I went into law enforcement, and we got out of that in twenty sixteen.
So I really I was always interested in the subject of CRYPTI. It's
big Foot in particular. You know, I had some experiences back in the
in my childhood that I think maybe attributable to Sasquatch or Bigfoot. But I
really didn't talk about it when I was a cop because that's not something you
go to work every day and talk about, right, you know, I
was prosecuting. I did DUY for a couple of years. You know,
I arrested like the most drunk drivers in the history of the state of Georgia
for one year. It was like three hundred and something drunks that I took
off the streets to Georgia. So you know, when you're doing those those
lawyers dig into your background, right, I mean, that's kind of what
they do. They want to find some dirt on you to discredit you in
court, and when you're testifying that many times, with that many DUI cases,
I didn't want to be the guy known around the precinct as the one
who talked about ghosts and big foot and UFOs, right, right, So
I kind of suppressed that, honestly, and didn't really talk about it much
until after I got out of the law enforcement gig in twenty sixteen. And
you know, really in twenty twenty, twenty twenty one is when I really
started buckling down and doing some research and really taking a look at when we
bought forty acres of property here in rural North Carolina and started having some weird
encounters and weird things going on here. So that's sort of when it really
started for me, and I started going into talking to people and trying to
document some encounters and things like that in the southeast. And that's that's kind
of where the when the show started. Super cool so that the name of
the let's start with the name of the Highlet's start you have because you've got
more than just one podcast, but I'll let you share that with you.
But how do you pick the name? I mean, obviously it's a subject,
but you know, did you go through other other ideas or you know,
absolutely, I mean that's one of the things I think any podcaster goes
through. What am I going to call my show? And I've talked about
this a couple of times of the show. Because of the name of the
podcast, you know, the first thing I did was think, I want
this to be a journey for people. I'm going on a journey. I'm
going on this journey for myself to find these answers. And what's a synonym
for journey? Right? I don't want to call it sasquats Journey. I
want to call it something else, a little bit cooler. So what's a
journey? Well, I looked at the word odyssey, right, and I'm
sure you probably went through this. I know I've done it with Doug when
we were trying to come up with a name for Weird Encounters on the already
on that work. We spent hours, literally hours going back and forth in
text messages and phone calls with me and him and Alex and Blaine, just
trying to come up with a name for that show. So I kind of
did the same thing on and I started taking a look at googling. You
know what's out there? Is there something in the zeitgeist already? Is the
name used? And I did all that stuff and the only thing I found
that was called Sasquatch Odyssey was this movie I think it's called Sasquatch Odyssey The
Hunt for Bigfoot or something like that back in the nineties. And it's a
great documentary, by the way, exactly I've watched. I just had Henry
Franzoni, who's the drum If you guys have watched that, he's the drummer
in there. He's out in the middle of the woods playing the drums.
Henry and I just had an episode. Are we recorded for an episode that's
coming up here in the next couple of weeks. So Sasquatch Odyssey and I
thought, okay, well, you know, it's a defunct website that's not
being used. I love the name. It resonated with me. I felt
very comfortable with it, so I was like, Okay, we're just gonna
go with that. And then when the other shows were born, you know,
Paranormal Odyssey was born, true Crime Odyssey was born, because everything really
is a journey, right, no matter where you were talking about Bigfoot,
whether you're talking about paranormal, where you're talking about true crime, whatever the
case might be. So it's kind of become the brand. It's those are
like the flagship shows for what eventually became the Paranormal World Productions Studio Slash Network,
So super cool and for for the audience, you know. So it's
a little easier for me to pick a name when we did it. When
we know we've got our our one podcast on on the Untold Radio network.
You know, it's and I just named it after the book because it's you
know, our podcast is kind of similar to the same scene ideas. So
but when we came out with this one, we didn't want it. I
didn't want to name it just the Bigfoot Influencers and confuse everyone. So Brian,
you know, very gracious for that. He and I kicked around a
bunch of ideas and Dana and we came out with Out of the Woods with
with the Bigfoot Influencers. So uh yeah, thanks again to you, Brian
for taking me on that odyssey, that journey with my name of this absolutely
and you know, the the nine hundred pound Guerrilla no pun intended this sort
of out of that was. There was also a podcast called Bigfoot Odyssey,
right Carry Arnold show, and it was months and months into the show actually
growing, and when it sort of got some traction, people started, you
know, posting Facebook groups and stuff and they were like, where are you
associated with Carrie's show? And I'm like, I don't know what that is,
so I it was a YouTube channel. Obviously it still exists, you
know, Carry unfortunately passed away, but the show continues. So there's the
Bigfoot Odyssey in the pair the Sasquatch Odyssey. They are mutually exclusive. They're
about the same thing, you know, and that's something that I met carry
a couple of times. We hung out at the Smoking a Mountain Bigfoot conference
last year, and we just never talked about it. We never even joked
about it. You know. It's just one of those things that we had
that mutual respect for each other and he stayed in his lane, I stayed
in my lane. You know. It was primarily That show is still primarily
a YouTube channel, and my show is we have a YouTube channel as well,
but it's more of an audio based podcast on the podcast apps. So
you know, people have asked me that, you know, if you ever
did you guys ever talk about that? No, we did. We always
talked about other things, you know, it was always Bigfoot. He was
a huge personality and just a super cool guy to hang out with, so
it just never came up, you know, right right, So, how
you know, if I'm if I'm listening to your show, you know,
what can I expect. We'll just start with we'll just focus on Sasquatch Odyssey
and then we can we can touch later on the other ones. But what
can I expect as a listener? The main thing the show was born out
of encounters That's what it's really all about. I wanted to give people a
space to come on and share their encounters with me. I sort of had
a conversation with Todd Prescott recently from the Sasquatch Archives, and Todd and I
we're talking about it, and you know, I never really thought of myself
as an archivist, but anybody who does podcast you really are. You're sort
of an archivist, and whatever genre that you choose to do your show on,
you're documenting things that are going to be there in perpetuity. When we
do these episodes and we put them out there on these podcast apps, unless
we take them down, They're going to be there a hundred years from now,
you know, potentially a thousand years from there, who knows. So
that's what it's really all about, is the encounters from the people who experience
them. The show is people coming on who have had encounters with what they
believe to be Sasquatch Bigfoot and then telling their stories in their own words.
We all learn as podcasters. You know, I probably talked a little bit
more in the beginning of the show than I should have. I asked too
many questions because I was excited and I was learning the ropes and figuring out
how to do it. But literally, I tell that every guest that comes
in the show, the show is about you. It's about your experience,
is about your encounter. I'm gonna stop talking. I'm gonna let you talk
and tell your story. So if you're into encounter stories, that's what it's
really all about. I try to turn my microphone off and just let the
person who experience that tell it in their own words. And course we have
just like you. You know, your book is about the influencers in Bigfoot,
you know, unlike some shows, their shows out there who don't necessarily
enjoy talking to researchers or like to talk to researchers. I think that's important.
I think that it's important to have a mixture. So in addition to
just Joe Schmo down the road or jan from across the street who had an
encounter when she was ten, in addition to that, I try to also
get people on the show who are doing the boots on the ground research that
are going out in the woods and trying to document the species or whatever their
motivation is, so you'll find a little bit of a mixture. It's regular
people like you and I who have had an experience. And it's also you
know, Cliff Brackman, or you know whomever, doctor Jeff Meldrum, Ron
moorehead whoever that you may or may not recognize, who is out there in
the woods doing the boots on the ground research. So it's encounter stories and
in addition to that, the maybe people who are somebody in the big Foot
community doing the research. And then I read a lot of stories I enjoy
doing. I like historical stories. I like people who have shared their stories
on blogs, because a lot of people won't come on and talk about their
stories on a podcast like yours are mine, and they'll just write their stories
out and those end up being archived in certain places. And I have some
great friends who have graciously allowed me access to a ton of stories, so
I'll pull from those on occasion and do maybe one story, you know,
one episode a week where it's just encounter stories that I read. And I've
also read a couple of books, audiobooks and things like that on the show
too, So it's all over the place, man. But the majority of
the show has been based around and continues to be all about encounter stories and
as you know, I love this. I mean, I've told you this,
but for the audiest I love the show. So it's it's one of
it's you know, right at the top every week, you know, when
when episodes come out. So when you get Brian, when you get have
witnesses, which is I'm sure it's a lot of work. We've had a
few witnesses, a few and it's a lot of work. And that's just
me scratching the surface. So how do you how do you get your witnesses
to you know, where do you find them? How can they reach out
to you? You know, how do you vet them? You know what?
You know, what's that process like? Well, in the beginning,
it was a lot tougher than it is today. I mean, when nobody
was listening to the show, nobody knew who I was. Nobody knew who
sasquatch and then or anything about Sasquatch Outsee, it was tough to get people
to trust you, number one, because it's a lot of there's a lot
of trust that's involved in this kind of stuff. Right for people to sit
down and sometimes I have been the only person that they have ever told their
story to, and that's a lot of responsibility if you really think about it,
there's a lot of traumatic experiences that happen. I think there's a lot
of PTSD that's involved. There's a there's a ton of things that go into
these kind of experiences that people have. And to earn their trus it's what
I consider it to be. I earn everybody's trust that comes on my show
that trusts me to be the curator of their story. Now they might have
been on ten of the podcast, I don't know. I don't really care.
At that point, when I'm in front of somebody and I'm documenting their
encounter, they're the only person that exists in my world. I completely one
dedicate myself to them and their story because that's really what it's all about,
and that's what I try to do with each and every person. So it's
changed over the last couple of years, but a lot of people came from
Facebook groups. You know, there are Facebook groups out there where people share
their encounter stories and I would literally go in every single one of them I
could get into that would allow me to post about the show and say,
hey, if you have a story and you want to tell your story,
come tell it. On my show. Now, with the popularity of the
show, it's grown exponentially. Thank goodness, I'm blessed to have the audience
that I have. Now, it's hard to keep up with the amount of
people that reach out and say, I want to share my story. So
then you get into the vetting thing, right. I was just we were
talking about Jeremiah from the Bigfoot Society before we went on. That's one of
the things Jeremiah reached out to me. He texted me a couple of days
ago and ask about vetting because he had had some issues with vetting people on
his show. We have really simple questions. I think Danny, our executive
producer, came up with like eight questions that we ask people. It's nothing
crazy, it's nothing out there, but it's eight general questions about their encounter
with their other witnesses. And then it kind of goes from there. And
we sort of designed those eight simple questions to really sort of weed out some
of the more out there kind of stuff. You know, they're sort of
designed to raise red flags if they're already and if there are any red flags,
then we follow up with those and we go a little deeper. And
I've talked about vetting a couple of times. Vetting is a very interesting word
when you're talking about cryptic and well, any encounter. Really, if you're
talking about an anecdote experience, it's very difficult to vet at all. And
I've argued with people about this. You know, people come on the show
and they tell some really outrageous stories. I've had tons of them. Some
of them made it on the air, some of them have it. But
when you're talking about an anecdotal experiences, as an interviewer and as the audience
who hears the story, our only job in that, in my opinion,
is to put it out there for me as the host of the show and
the person who's doing the interview. I simply put it out there for people
to digest. I say it all the time. Take what you want,
and leave the rest. That's all. That's all I can offer for the
audience and for the audience member. You just got to listen to the story
and decide whether you believe it or not. Maybe you believe pieces of it,
maybe you don't believe any of it. Was it entertaining? I mean,
if you listen to a forty five minute story that you don't believe at
all. Were you entertained by it? You know, that's really what it
comes down to. So the vetting of that is really really difficult. But
we do ask those questions up front. We try to weed those things out.
If there's just some red flag of maybe mental illness or you know,
maybe they're making up the story, obviously we don't follow through with the interview,
and we don't air it. If we do. I've set through our
long interviews that never made it on the show. You know, I give
that person my time, I allow them to tell their story, and if
I don't believe you, I'm not putting it on the show because that's not
being intellectually honest for me. If I believe that you've made up your story
and I can convince myself that you may not be being honest, I'm certainly
not going to put it out there for the audience. But ninety eight percent
of the people that I interview you hear it on the air, So the
vetting process is different. It's definitely difficult when you do this kind of show.
You know, if you're vetting an expert, or you're having somebody on
that has written a book or they they've put forward some huge piece of evidence
or something like that. Certainly you can vet those people. It's a little
bit more difficult when you're just having an anecdotal story relate on the show.
Yeah, So it was a long way answer to a short question. All
right, Well, it's something struck me when you said, and I wanted
to bring this up. I wasn't planning on asking you, but you said,
believe, and if you believe them, and sometimes whether that person actually
saw a real creature or had an experience, they may or may not have,
but it's what they believe they saw, right. Can you share a
little bit about your experience with that or how your thoughts are on that.
That is a very good point, and I'm glad you brought that up,
because I shouldn't have used the word believe, because I say it all the
time. My sort of one of my taglines on the show is I don't
have anybody on the show that I don't believe believe that they had the experience
that they share. And that's a very good point because I think a lot
of times it happens that maybe they have some sort of an ex experience and
they believe that what they're relaying is true. Now, could it be different
from what they really experienced? Sure? Could it be added to absolutely,
And some people could just be wholeheartedly, just whole cloth making up the entire
thing. I think for me, besides the belief thing, it's more about
mental stability. So that's where I try to go. If I believe that
somebody may be having some mental health issues or there may be some mental health
issues on board. That's where I've drawn the line in the past about not
airing a show, and I've talked about it a couple of times recently.
I don't think you and I've talked about it. But I interviewed a guy
about a month and a half ago who was sharing a story with me,
and it was fairly mundane, as mundane as it can be to be talking
about an eight or nine foot you know, Harry hamadid that's rumming around in
North America that's not supposed to exist. It started out there and then it
just sort of morphed into this weird experience that he said he had where he
had sex with a female sasquatch. Now, everybody I've said that too,
has the same reaction, and you know, I haven't aired that show because
frankly, I don't know what to do with it, because I don't know
how people are going to respond to that. Now, did he have that
experience? I have no idea. Does he believe that he had that experience?
I looked the guy in the eyes, and I do believe that he
believes that he had that experience. Whether he experienced it between his ears and
only in his mind, or he physically believes that he physically had that experience,
I don't know. But I'm very careful about the show because I do
approach this very seriously. I take the subject very seriously, and I want
to do that for every single guest that comes on the show. So and
I'm up in the air about airing that show because it fits the category of
it's out there, it's high strangeness, and most would say it's very woo
sort of experience that he relayed. But does it meet the standard of do
I believe that this guy believes that he had that experience? I do?
So where do you go with that? I don't know. Just just put
it up for the patrons to to say, yeah, that's a good idea.
I might I might do well to see what just with a with a
you know, a warning or something huge, a huge caveat yeah, a
huge, huge caveat here, and say, hey, you know it's just
a little out there, but it's a it's a tough road to home,
man, because I want to be intellectually honest, and I want to do
an entertaining show that people enjoy listening to, and I want to highlight encounters.
But I've said it before. You know, that's story versus a hunter
who comes on and says, yeah, I was standing in a tree stand
and this thing came up and snatched a deer from ten feet away and ran
off into the woods. Well, most people who are into this subject,
me included. Frankly, I'll just be honest. I'm more apt to say
that is a reasonable story versus somebody who says, you know, I saw
this thing walk off off of a spaceship, or it came and she came
into my tent and we had intercourse. You know, where do you draw
the line? Because I'm reading Matt Pruitt's book right now, The Phenomena,
and I'm about three chapters in. I've been a slow reader over the last
week or so. I haven't had a whole lot of free time to read,
but you know, it boils down in that book too, and it's
basically the same thing across the board with this phenomenon. We can all agree
that the phenomenon exists. It's just a matter of figuring out if it's a
real, live, living creature that exists in this world or does it only
exist in people's minds. That's really the only question we're talking about anybody who's
into this subject. I personally believe eighty percent of the time it's probably a
real, live creature that people are experiencing. But then there's that other twenty
percent that just keeps me scratching my head and I have to say, I
don't I don't know. But I said all that to say, vetting is
tough. It's really difficult to do when you're talking anecdotal stuff. And I
still get occasionally somebody will come on and say something that somebody doesn't agree with,
and I'll have a listener reach out and say, how do you not
vet these people? How can you? You know? It is what it
is. We do the best job we can, but at the end of
the day, as a listener, you just have to take what you want
and leave the rest and believe what you want to believe. Definitely, for
sure. So have you had a I'm sure you have, But can you
share a witness that you interviewed that's really moved you or shook you or it
just you know, just stuck with you for a long time. Yeah,
there was. There's been several obviously three hundred plus episodes into the show,
but I think one that stuck out that was very recent was a hunter that
was out in the woods with his dad. I think they were from Washington,
and I don't remember where they were hunting. I may have that wrong.
He may have had the experience in Washington that were somewhere else. I
don't know. They were out elk hunting and it was a really long interview.
I think he talked for like an hour and twenty minutes. I literally
I had people sending me emails and saying, that's the longest you've ever went
without saying a word on your show. I let him talk for like an
hour and fifteen minutes, And of course people gave me crap because I let
him talk too long and it should have speeded up whatever, But he it
was basically in a nutshell. He and his dad were out hunting elk and
he has this tree knock situation where this thing is tree knocking for this went
on for about thirty minutes and it culminated into him walking into a certain area
and this huge sasquatch steps out from behind a tree and basically confronts him.
Now, this guy's got a long gun. He's got a pretty big I
don't know if it was a three o eight or what he was caring to
take down an elk, but it was a pretty big gun. And he
said he felt like he might as well had a toothpick in his hand at
that because this thing was huge. And he took off running and left the
area. But it, besides him just being a really compelling witness and just
his story in general being very interesting to me, the thing that stuck out
to me I think the most about his story was I'd never heard anybody because
this is the thing he said to me. And I'm sure you've heard,
you've heard tree knocks. People have talked about having experiences with tree knocks.
I've heard something recently here on the property that I would consider like four power
knocks. So you hear that. It's a pretty common thing in the big
Foot community, in the Bigfoot experienced world. But the one thing I'd never
heard him say. I'd never heard anybody say this until he said it.
He said he felt like this thing was drawing him in. And I was
like really, and he's like yeah, because this one on for thirty minutes.
And he said this thing would tree knock and he would stop and listen
to it, and he would keep walking and he would stop again when it
would tree knock, and it would every time he would stop, it would
do another series of knocks. And he said, I really felt like it
was drawing me in to do something nefarious. To me, that's just the
feeling he had. Obviously it's subjective. He has no way to prove that,
but it is his experience. And I'd never heard anybody say that to
me. But he said, you know, it kept drawing me in closer
and closer and closer until boom, this thing stepped out from behind a tree.
He's ten fifteen yards away from it. So that was really compelling to
me because I guess because I've never really heard that, But when you have
those kind of experiences and your gut tells you something. And this guy,
he wasn't military, he wasn't law enforcement, but he had had a lot
of training and martial arts and weaponry and things like that, so he had
been around weapons and he had been trained, you know, with people in
those kind of situations. And I trusted his gut, and he really felt
like this thing was drawing him in, and I don't know, it just
really stuck out to me as a really compelling story. I remember listening to
that episode and him saying that he should have known better that, you know,
just from animal instincts, you know, hindsight. After it happened,
he said something to that nature said, yeah, I should have known that's
what was happening, but I didn't, you know. Yeah, he really
felt bad about it. And the other thing that if folks have listened to
that episode, he was really torn up because his dad was hunting in a
different area with him, and he went back to camp that night and he
didn't tell his dad what he had experienced, and that really shook him up,
and he didn't tell him until after that trip was over, and he
really up guilty for a long time, to the point where he said he
tried to bury himself in the bottom of a liquor bottle. This guy was
he fell off the wagon big time because of that experience, and I sort
of related to that. I can understand where that would really eat at you
because he was worried about his dad's safety. But he was so shaken by
what he saw and the stigma around it. You know, how do you
pull your dad aside at the campfire after a day of elk hunting and say,
Dad, I want you to be careful tomorrow because I encountered a nine
foot giant ape in the woods today while I was hunting. Like, how
do you say that to somebody? Didn't he say that he didn't like the
following days he didn't actually really go out and hunt. He said he faked.
He faked like he was going out and didn't go out. Yeah,
his dad would go out and hunt in his area, and he would drive
to the area where he was saying he was going to hunt, and he
would set in the truck because he was afraid to go back in the woods.
That's just that's just compelling. How could shake someone up that way?
I mean, yeah, it's crazy, man, Yeah, yeah, it
is. That's super cool. So um, Brian, as we start winding
down, you know best way for the you know, we'll talk about a
little bit about your network and then then after that you can share how you
know folks can keep up with you. Sure well, the network is the
three big shows are the our flagship shows, Sasquatch Odyssey, Paranormal Odyssey,
and the True Crime Odyssey. Those are all anywhere you get your podcasts.
Anywhere you're listening to Tim and I right now, you can get those.
Just search those names and they'll pop up in your feed and you can hopefully
follow the shows and take a listen. I don't host the Paranormal Odyssey anymore.
It was sort of born out of all the really strange things that people
are experiencing while they're out in the woods outside of Sasquatch. So I started
that show to document more of the paranormal stuff. Dog man UFOs, alien
abductions, all the paranormal stuf of ghost stories, those kind of things.
So Wayne host that show now it is still up. I think he's one
hundred and twenty summite episodes of that show in so there's plenty of stuff for
you to listen to. True Crime Odyssey. Obviously, I was a cop
for sixteen years, so I do the true crime show and we've added a
couple of other shows to the network. We have The Basement Hangout with Chad
and Bob. They deal with all kinds of stuff, conspiracy theories, bigfoot,
aliens, you name it, they talk about it. And then the
Kentucky X Files with Tyler, Danny and Josh same thing. They cover all
things crypted, all things weird. So you can go to Paranormal World Productions
dot com and check out all the shows there. We've got blogs for the
shows. Anything and everything about the shows are there. You can check that
out. And then obviously anywhere you get your podcasts awesome. And then Brian
also has a show on the Untold Radio Network, Yes, Weird Encounters.
Let me not forget about the Untold Radio Network and Weird Encounters. Weird Encounters
is one of those things that covers everything. It's a gamut, you know.
If it's weird, crypted related, UFOs, dog Man, you name
it, we talk about it. And I read a lot of stories over
there as well, people like you know, the weird crypted stories, and
so I try to do at least a couple of episodes a month over there
where it's just me reading some really cool encounter stories. Awesome, and then
you're going to be out and about this, you know, you know up
in an upcoming months too. You know where are you going to be?
Yes, you can see me. I will be on stage at the Smokey
Mountain Bigfoot Conference on July twenty second up in Gatlinburg, Tennessee. If you've
never made it to that conference, it is huge, it is awesome.
They do a really good job. Cliff Berrickman is going to be there,
Matt Moneymaker's going to be there where, Nate Holland, Lorie Wade, Tony
Merkle, myself, Ryan Golembewski, RPG is going to be the MC this

Cliff Berkman, doctor Jeff Meldrum. And we just added Michael Freeman,
Paul Freeman's son, the Freeman File's Book. If you haven't check that out,
you got check that out. We're gonna be doing some really cool stuff
there. We're going to be showing some of the actual Freeman footage, the
non interlaced version of that footage at the conference, and they're working on something
really cool. Doug and Brandon and then are working on getting a link that
people can actually attend that virtually if you can't make it out to Idaho.
So I talked to Brandon today. They've had a little hiccup. They're trying
to get the link together, But as soon as they get that done,
I'm going to have him back on the show and we'll roll that out so
everybody who can't attend in person can actually get the link to the show.

few times about that. So Brian, my friend, this has been amazing.
