WEBVTT

1
00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:02.480
<v Speaker 1>There used to be this couple named Martha and CJ.

2
00:00:02.720 --> 00:00:05.400
<v Speaker 1>From here in Oklahoma, and a Native American couple that

3
00:00:05.440 --> 00:00:08.240
<v Speaker 1>we knew, and they had all kinds of stories. Man,

4
00:00:08.439 --> 00:00:10.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there is stuff going on all the time

5
00:00:10.759 --> 00:00:13.400
<v Speaker 1>where they live. There's still stuff that goes on there

6
00:00:14.080 --> 00:00:17.359
<v Speaker 1>in that community on a pretty regular basis. But these

7
00:00:17.399 --> 00:00:20.280
<v Speaker 1>people had activity going on their place all the time.

8
00:00:20.839 --> 00:00:24.359
<v Speaker 1>Martha had had activity in her life since she was

9
00:00:24.359 --> 00:00:27.120
<v Speaker 1>a little girl. And one of the stories that she

10
00:00:27.280 --> 00:00:32.359
<v Speaker 1>had from whenever she was younger was actually leading a

11
00:00:32.439 --> 00:00:37.320
<v Speaker 1>bigfoot into their house like holding on to its two fingers.

12
00:00:37.600 --> 00:00:40.479
<v Speaker 1>She's a little girl, mind you, and she's like walking

13
00:00:40.520 --> 00:00:43.520
<v Speaker 1>with this thing through her front door. She opens the

14
00:00:43.560 --> 00:00:46.560
<v Speaker 1>front door and walks in, and this bigfoot comes in

15
00:00:46.600 --> 00:00:48.799
<v Speaker 1>behind her and kind of like ducks its head underneath

16
00:00:48.840 --> 00:00:51.280
<v Speaker 1>the door, and all the men jump up, you know,

17
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:52.960
<v Speaker 1>and they're like trying to get it out of the

18
00:00:53.000 --> 00:00:54.960
<v Speaker 1>house and shoot it out of the house, and it

19
00:00:55.039 --> 00:00:56.119
<v Speaker 1>just looks at him and goes.

20
00:00:57.600 --> 00:00:59.479
<v Speaker 2>And turns around and ducks back onto the door and

21
00:00:59.560 --> 00:01:00.000
<v Speaker 2>walks off.

22
00:01:01.280 --> 00:01:11.840
<v Speaker 3>That is the crapiest story of the year. Yeah, I'm done.

23
00:01:40.359 --> 00:01:45.079
<v Speaker 1>This is Bigfoot Crossroads. My name's Matt and twenty twenty

24
00:01:45.079 --> 00:01:47.200
<v Speaker 1>four has left the building. Ladies and gentlemen, we are

25
00:01:47.319 --> 00:01:51.079
<v Speaker 1>kicking off twenty twenty five. Man, that just sounds weird

26
00:01:51.120 --> 00:01:54.040
<v Speaker 1>to say. I've got Bob and Steven with me from

27
00:01:54.280 --> 00:01:57.719
<v Speaker 1>the Fantabulous Bigfoot Club podcast. If you've listened to the show,

28
00:01:57.760 --> 00:02:03.359
<v Speaker 1>you've heard them before. If not, you're hearing them now. Guys,

29
00:02:03.599 --> 00:02:04.439
<v Speaker 1>thanks for joining me.

30
00:02:06.120 --> 00:02:07.640
<v Speaker 3>Hey Matt, what's going on? Mat?

<v Speaker 3>It was good? Good.

34
00:02:17.199 --> 00:02:19.560
<v Speaker 4>I mean, we didn't do much. We wrapped up the

35
00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:22.240
<v Speaker 4>season last Saturday, so.

36
00:02:22.400 --> 00:02:26.479
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, yeah, it was We watched The Yellowstone and then

37
00:02:26.560 --> 00:02:29.919
<v Speaker 5>I went to bed. Yeah yeah, yeah, we're all old

38
00:02:29.960 --> 00:02:35.520
<v Speaker 5>now mm hmm, yep, there we are. I was actually

39
00:02:35.800 --> 00:02:38.120
<v Speaker 5>woken up at midnight by the sound of my dog

40
00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:40.159
<v Speaker 5>barking at fireworks.

41
00:02:41.560 --> 00:02:45.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah yeah, yeah, oh yeah, you have a new dog now.

42
00:02:45.319 --> 00:02:46.199
<v Speaker 2>I do. I do?

43
00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:47.439
<v Speaker 3>So.

44
00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:47.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

45
00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:50.680
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to do kind of a year in wrap

46
00:02:50.759 --> 00:02:54.680
<v Speaker 1>up episode, a little question answer thing for the listeners

47
00:02:54.680 --> 00:02:58.000
<v Speaker 1>out there, had some people sending some questions, and uh,

48
00:02:58.759 --> 00:03:00.919
<v Speaker 1>before we get to that, there's actually a couple things

49
00:03:00.919 --> 00:03:04.479
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to talk to you guys. About the first

50
00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:06.639
<v Speaker 1>thing that comes to mind. It's been in the headlines

51
00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:11.919
<v Speaker 1>everywhere recently. Obviously, the bigfoot community has talked about it.

52
00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:17.120
<v Speaker 1>Two Portland men going out to hunt for sasquatch on

53
00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:22.400
<v Speaker 1>Christmas Eve unfortunately went missing. Their bodies were found a

54
00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:25.639
<v Speaker 1>few days later, and the story is they had died

55
00:03:25.680 --> 00:03:30.319
<v Speaker 1>from exposure to the elements. No names have been mentioned

56
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:33.280
<v Speaker 1>as far as I know of. Maybe names will eventually

57
00:03:33.280 --> 00:03:36.000
<v Speaker 1>come out, but as of right now, I haven't heard anybody.

58
00:03:36.000 --> 00:03:36.680
<v Speaker 2>I have asked a.

59
00:03:36.599 --> 00:03:39.759
<v Speaker 1>Couple of people if they have any idea who these

60
00:03:39.759 --> 00:03:43.840
<v Speaker 1>guys were. Nobody seems to know, so I guess it

61
00:03:43.919 --> 00:03:46.520
<v Speaker 1>might have just been a couple of randoms, you know,

62
00:03:46.599 --> 00:03:49.000
<v Speaker 1>and not people tied to any bigfoot groups or anything.

63
00:03:49.039 --> 00:03:51.960
<v Speaker 2>But a truly tragic event.

64
00:03:53.400 --> 00:03:55.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that would I did see that.

65
00:03:55.439 --> 00:03:58.520
<v Speaker 4>I think we had talked off air about that.

66
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:01.960
<v Speaker 3>That National Forest, it's called Gifford R.

67
00:04:02.120 --> 00:04:07.840
<v Speaker 1>Gifford Gifford Pinchot National Forest in Scamania County in Washington, so.

68
00:04:07.960 --> 00:04:11.080
<v Speaker 4>I know it's in Scaminia and it's also in Lewis

69
00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:15.319
<v Speaker 4>County as well. But the bfro's got at least fifty

70
00:04:15.319 --> 00:04:18.639
<v Speaker 4>three bigfoot side of reports in those counties.

71
00:04:19.040 --> 00:04:21.959
<v Speaker 1>That part of Washington is like one of the hottest

72
00:04:22.000 --> 00:04:25.279
<v Speaker 1>areas for Sasquatch ever. I mean that's where like Mount

73
00:04:25.279 --> 00:04:28.160
<v Speaker 1>Saint Helens is and everything, so it's like a really

74
00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:33.120
<v Speaker 1>popular place to go. It's hard for me to understand

75
00:04:33.480 --> 00:04:38.480
<v Speaker 1>how two guys out looking for Bigfoot could die from

76
00:04:38.480 --> 00:04:42.639
<v Speaker 1>exposure to the elements. Every time I've gone out for me,

77
00:04:42.959 --> 00:04:44.680
<v Speaker 1>it's like, okay, well you could have gotten back to

78
00:04:44.720 --> 00:04:46.920
<v Speaker 1>the vehicle, or you know, I've never even been in

79
00:04:46.920 --> 00:04:49.360
<v Speaker 1>an area that didn't have like a little bit of

80
00:04:49.360 --> 00:04:51.920
<v Speaker 1>cell phone service of some kind at least close by.

81
00:04:52.839 --> 00:04:56.639
<v Speaker 1>But Washington in the Pacific Northwest is an entirely different beast,

82
00:04:56.800 --> 00:05:01.319
<v Speaker 1>you know. And it's just really horrible this happened, especially

83
00:05:01.360 --> 00:05:05.319
<v Speaker 1>at Christmas time. Man, that's just the worst.

84
00:05:05.720 --> 00:05:08.240
<v Speaker 4>So when when you first heard this story, did you

85
00:05:08.279 --> 00:05:11.000
<v Speaker 4>did you immediately think it was like like Bigfoot that

86
00:05:11.040 --> 00:05:15.639
<v Speaker 4>did it? Or they just they just died of elements, Like.

87
00:05:15.720 --> 00:05:16.720
<v Speaker 2>I wasn't real sure.

88
00:05:16.800 --> 00:05:20.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm still not, you know, I don't want to turn

89
00:05:20.720 --> 00:05:24.160
<v Speaker 1>a story like this into content since people lost their lives,

90
00:05:25.399 --> 00:05:28.399
<v Speaker 1>right because we don't know the situation or the actual

91
00:05:28.439 --> 00:05:33.439
<v Speaker 1>scenario that took place. I really don't think that it

92
00:05:33.519 --> 00:05:38.600
<v Speaker 1>was anybody connected to any of the Bigfoot groups out

93
00:05:38.600 --> 00:05:43.519
<v Speaker 1>there firsthand, because I mean I know a lot of

94
00:05:43.560 --> 00:05:46.360
<v Speaker 1>those guys and I don't I just don't think they

95
00:05:46.399 --> 00:05:50.879
<v Speaker 1>would have caught got caught, you know, unprepared like this,

96
00:05:51.399 --> 00:05:54.800
<v Speaker 1>especially in an area like that. I think most people

97
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.160
<v Speaker 1>try to be as prepared as possible, but you know,

98
00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:01.160
<v Speaker 1>humans make mistakes, and it's just it just goes to

99
00:06:01.160 --> 00:06:05.040
<v Speaker 1>show you that regardless, you know, take the element of

100
00:06:05.079 --> 00:06:08.720
<v Speaker 1>bigfoot out of it, just the act of looking for

101
00:06:08.800 --> 00:06:12.399
<v Speaker 1>bigfoot is a dangerous hobby for anyone.

102
00:06:12.959 --> 00:06:13.600
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I was.

103
00:06:13.959 --> 00:06:15.800
<v Speaker 4>I did a little bit of research on this, and

104
00:06:16.360 --> 00:06:18.560
<v Speaker 4>there was a gentleman by the name of John Hopkins

105
00:06:18.759 --> 00:06:22.000
<v Speaker 4>and he was a Seattle resident, sixty nine years old.

106
00:06:22.199 --> 00:06:26.839
<v Speaker 4>He disappeared on November the twenty twenty two. And then

107
00:06:26.879 --> 00:06:31.399
<v Speaker 4>there was a gentleman by the name of Christopher Zick Wickets.

108
00:06:32.040 --> 00:06:37.680
<v Speaker 4>He disappeared in twenty thirteen. And then schemina County sheriff,

109
00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:42.240
<v Speaker 4>stated on an article that at least twelve other people

110
00:06:42.480 --> 00:06:45.639
<v Speaker 4>have been missing in that area as well.

111
00:06:45.920 --> 00:06:46.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

112
00:06:46.319 --> 00:06:50.199
<v Speaker 1>I talked to a buddy of mine out there, Todd

113
00:06:50.279 --> 00:06:53.199
<v Speaker 1>Hill with the Olympic Project, and he was talking about

114
00:06:53.240 --> 00:06:56.120
<v Speaker 1>Yet people go missing all the time out there. I mean,

115
00:06:56.160 --> 00:07:00.759
<v Speaker 1>it's a regular event unfortunately. But you know, again, the

116
00:07:00.839 --> 00:07:04.439
<v Speaker 1>terrain and everything, it's like completely different than it is

117
00:07:04.800 --> 00:07:09.639
<v Speaker 1>where we live. But it seems like the media did

118
00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:12.839
<v Speaker 1>what the media does, and since they were like out

119
00:07:12.839 --> 00:07:15.199
<v Speaker 1>looking for bigfoot at the time, that's what got pushed

120
00:07:15.199 --> 00:07:17.319
<v Speaker 1>in the headlines and everything, and they really used it

121
00:07:18.439 --> 00:07:21.879
<v Speaker 1>for the attention grab on the article. So I'm not

122
00:07:21.959 --> 00:07:24.319
<v Speaker 1>going to be surprised if we don't hear anything more

123
00:07:24.360 --> 00:07:28.199
<v Speaker 1>about this, or if we never get the names, because

124
00:07:28.240 --> 00:07:30.800
<v Speaker 1>I think the media has kind of gotten their goodie

125
00:07:30.839 --> 00:07:32.160
<v Speaker 1>out of it and they're done with it.

126
00:07:33.319 --> 00:07:33.560
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

127
00:07:34.439 --> 00:07:38.000
<v Speaker 1>A little follow up thing though, one of the search

128
00:07:38.079 --> 00:07:41.720
<v Speaker 1>and rescue teams that was involved in searching for these

129
00:07:41.759 --> 00:07:46.680
<v Speaker 1>men after they found the bodies, like the very next night,

130
00:07:46.879 --> 00:07:49.439
<v Speaker 1>their trailer got broken into and all their equipment stolen.

131
00:07:49.920 --> 00:07:50.519
<v Speaker 3>That's odd.

132
00:07:50.800 --> 00:07:53.720
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they made a post on the internet about it, asking,

133
00:07:53.800 --> 00:07:56.000
<v Speaker 1>you know, if anybody's got any information or whatever.

134
00:07:56.600 --> 00:08:02.000
<v Speaker 6>But it's just like, wow, jeez, maybe they saw something

135
00:08:02.000 --> 00:08:06.000
<v Speaker 6>they weren't supposed to. And it's just events like this

136
00:08:06.040 --> 00:08:10.680
<v Speaker 6>are so difficult to cover because you want to be

137
00:08:10.800 --> 00:08:14.319
<v Speaker 6>respectful to the family and friends and you know, the

138
00:08:14.399 --> 00:08:18.839
<v Speaker 6>men that lost their lives, and I know everybody wants information,

139
00:08:19.079 --> 00:08:21.680
<v Speaker 6>and you know, plenty of people are going to start

140
00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:22.680
<v Speaker 6>speculating us to.

141
00:08:22.639 --> 00:08:25.160
<v Speaker 1>What could have happened. Is there a cover up involved?

142
00:08:25.240 --> 00:08:27.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, did they find what they were looking for

143
00:08:27.279 --> 00:08:30.920
<v Speaker 1>and met their demise? But you know, we're probably just

144
00:08:30.959 --> 00:08:34.519
<v Speaker 1>not going to get the information. That's not anything that

145
00:08:34.600 --> 00:08:39.200
<v Speaker 1>anybody would ever come out with. So I hope that

146
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:42.000
<v Speaker 1>the Bigfoot world, you know, kind of lets these guys

147
00:08:42.399 --> 00:08:43.080
<v Speaker 1>rest in peace.

148
00:08:43.600 --> 00:08:44.279
<v Speaker 3>Absolutely.

149
00:08:44.879 --> 00:08:50.519
<v Speaker 1>And in other news, drones in New Jersey aka UFOs

150
00:08:50.519 --> 00:08:54.679
<v Speaker 1>in New Jersey aka government vehicles flying over New Jersey

151
00:08:54.720 --> 00:08:58.360
<v Speaker 1>and everywhere else in the United States. Another huge headline

152
00:08:58.399 --> 00:09:00.799
<v Speaker 1>at the end of this year or last year now

153
00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:05.759
<v Speaker 1>that you know, was just plastered everywhere and talking about

154
00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:10.399
<v Speaker 1>speculation running wild. It certainly took off with that, but

155
00:09:10.679 --> 00:09:14.799
<v Speaker 1>I was surprised to see none other than Matt Moneymaker

156
00:09:14.879 --> 00:09:18.960
<v Speaker 1>of the BFRO posting about it, and not only posting

157
00:09:19.000 --> 00:09:23.960
<v Speaker 1>about it, but publicly admitting that he has seen orbs

158
00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:26.279
<v Speaker 1>out in the woods while looking for Bigfoot, and so

159
00:09:26.360 --> 00:09:29.759
<v Speaker 1>have other BFRO members, and that it's like a common

160
00:09:29.799 --> 00:09:33.879
<v Speaker 1>thing apparently, even though he's never really talked about it

161
00:09:33.960 --> 00:09:35.320
<v Speaker 1>or admitted to it previously.

162
00:09:36.080 --> 00:09:38.720
<v Speaker 4>You know, I can honestly say because Stephen and I

163
00:09:38.840 --> 00:09:43.320
<v Speaker 4>we actually interviewed Carter Bischard and he's a former BFRO guy,

164
00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:48.159
<v Speaker 4>and he has he has said on our show that

165
00:09:48.360 --> 00:09:51.399
<v Speaker 4>anytime he ran into orbs, right, anything he ran into

166
00:09:51.519 --> 00:09:56.759
<v Speaker 4>orbs or anything supernatural ist, that the BFRORO would scrub

167
00:09:56.759 --> 00:09:58.679
<v Speaker 4>it off. So I thought, that's kind of odd.

168
00:09:59.240 --> 00:09:59.480
<v Speaker 3>Why.

169
00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:03.039
<v Speaker 4>I don't know, he just said that they just didn't

170
00:10:03.120 --> 00:10:05.639
<v Speaker 4>like any of the supernatural aspect of it.

171
00:10:05.960 --> 00:10:08.840
<v Speaker 1>But I mean, they build themselves and I'm not trying

172
00:10:08.879 --> 00:10:11.720
<v Speaker 1>to turn this into a bash the BFRO session, but

173
00:10:11.840 --> 00:10:15.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean they've build themselves as the only scientific organization

174
00:10:15.879 --> 00:10:18.360
<v Speaker 1>searching for Bigfoot. I mean, that's how they presented themselves

175
00:10:18.360 --> 00:10:21.240
<v Speaker 1>on their website for years. That's not very scientific to

176
00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:25.639
<v Speaker 1>scrub information out of the reports. I mean, yeah, I'm

177
00:10:25.639 --> 00:10:30.480
<v Speaker 1>not saying, you know, to make a connection between orbs

178
00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:33.759
<v Speaker 1>and Bigfoot, but if you're out looking for bigfoot and

179
00:10:33.799 --> 00:10:37.960
<v Speaker 1>you see orbs, that should be documented. I mean, if

180
00:10:37.960 --> 00:10:39.799
<v Speaker 1>you're out looking for bigfoot and you see a bear,

181
00:10:40.000 --> 00:10:43.039
<v Speaker 1>that should be documented. So I don't understand what the

182
00:10:43.080 --> 00:10:43.639
<v Speaker 1>problem is.

183
00:10:44.720 --> 00:10:46.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I don't like that one at all.

184
00:10:47.320 --> 00:10:49.759
<v Speaker 1>But we've been talking about orbs for a long time.

185
00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:53.360
<v Speaker 1>You know, you've seen a strange light anomaly while out

186
00:10:53.399 --> 00:10:58.120
<v Speaker 1>looking for Bigfoot. It's something that I talk to guests

187
00:10:58.159 --> 00:11:03.200
<v Speaker 1>about regularly on the show, and it's like, oh, wow,

188
00:11:03.240 --> 00:11:07.480
<v Speaker 1>so you're finally admitting to orbs existing. Cool, thanks for

189
00:11:07.919 --> 00:11:09.480
<v Speaker 1>catching up with the rest of the class.

190
00:11:10.600 --> 00:11:13.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, it's almost like it's like, you know, he's finally

191
00:11:13.440 --> 00:11:14.279
<v Speaker 4>given in or something.

192
00:11:14.320 --> 00:11:14.759
<v Speaker 3>I don't know.

193
00:11:14.840 --> 00:11:18.639
<v Speaker 4>It's just one of those things that get with the times,

194
00:11:18.679 --> 00:11:21.120
<v Speaker 4>and I guess he's finally doing it living now.

195
00:11:21.559 --> 00:11:24.600
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, let me read a little bit of what he wrote.

196
00:11:24.960 --> 00:11:29.080
<v Speaker 1>He says, BFRO people including myself have seen these new

197
00:11:29.159 --> 00:11:33.200
<v Speaker 1>Jersey drones several times over the years. We've seen these

198
00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:35.960
<v Speaker 1>things enough times and in enough places to notice a pattern.

199
00:11:36.840 --> 00:11:39.960
<v Speaker 1>The locations were always devoid of any humans except for us.

200
00:11:40.000 --> 00:11:43.399
<v Speaker 1>For miles in any direction, we could see these bright

201
00:11:43.519 --> 00:11:46.840
<v Speaker 1>crafts dropping in and out of remote mountain valleys, big

202
00:11:46.919 --> 00:11:50.279
<v Speaker 1>dark areas with no roads or mark trails. It seemed

203
00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:53.840
<v Speaker 1>these luminous objects, which bobbed around like big, lazy flying

204
00:11:53.879 --> 00:11:57.039
<v Speaker 1>bugs in the dark mountain valleys, were intentionally trying to

205
00:11:57.159 --> 00:12:00.600
<v Speaker 1>stay as far away from humans as possible, as if

206
00:12:00.639 --> 00:12:03.080
<v Speaker 1>they were trying to stay out of our view, just

207
00:12:03.159 --> 00:12:07.519
<v Speaker 1>like bigfoots prefer. Also, these drones are nothing new to us,

208
00:12:07.799 --> 00:12:11.200
<v Speaker 1>but the behavioral difference is striking. Now they are trying

209
00:12:11.240 --> 00:12:13.840
<v Speaker 1>to be seen. They were doing the opposite before.

210
00:12:14.720 --> 00:12:18.559
<v Speaker 4>Do you think he's just trying to stay relevant inside

211
00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:19.480
<v Speaker 4>the news or something.

212
00:12:19.639 --> 00:12:22.720
<v Speaker 1>I mean, it kind of sounds like he might try

213
00:12:22.759 --> 00:12:26.039
<v Speaker 1>to be cashing in on a hot topic, you know,

214
00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:31.799
<v Speaker 1>on Twitter, using hashtags and stuff. Yeah, he's making a

215
00:12:31.840 --> 00:12:35.759
<v Speaker 1>connection here to the New Jersey drones, claiming that the

216
00:12:35.759 --> 00:12:38.399
<v Speaker 1>New Jersey drones and the orbs that he has witnessed

217
00:12:38.440 --> 00:12:41.679
<v Speaker 1>himself out in the woods looking for Bigfoot are the

218
00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:42.279
<v Speaker 1>same thing.

219
00:12:42.519 --> 00:12:44.639
<v Speaker 2>Whenever. I don't think that's been established at all.

220
00:12:45.919 --> 00:12:49.639
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I mean since October the first, twenty twenty four,

221
00:12:49.720 --> 00:12:54.039
<v Speaker 4>there's like eight hundred thousand drones that are being registered

222
00:12:54.039 --> 00:12:57.000
<v Speaker 4>to the FAA in the like in the US.

223
00:12:57.039 --> 00:12:58.519
<v Speaker 3>I mean I have a drone. I don't. I don't

224
00:12:58.559 --> 00:13:00.679
<v Speaker 3>have it registered. I mean there's some many drones.

225
00:13:01.279 --> 00:13:04.240
<v Speaker 4>Right, It's hard, it's I mean, some people are probably

226
00:13:04.279 --> 00:13:07.519
<v Speaker 4>like reapport duplicate sightings or something.

227
00:13:08.000 --> 00:13:09.799
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that make it seem like it's so many. I

228
00:13:09.799 --> 00:13:10.720
<v Speaker 3>don't know. I'm just.

229
00:13:12.360 --> 00:13:15.600
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I know that the UFO world has jumped

230
00:13:15.600 --> 00:13:17.799
<v Speaker 1>on this thing, and I know that people think that

231
00:13:17.840 --> 00:13:21.000
<v Speaker 1>there's some grand conspiracy at work.

232
00:13:22.000 --> 00:13:23.480
<v Speaker 2>But I would ask.

233
00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:27.320
<v Speaker 1>Everyone to take pause for a second and just back

234
00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:31.519
<v Speaker 1>up a little bit. Like you're saying, there are hundreds

235
00:13:31.559 --> 00:13:35.720
<v Speaker 1>of thousands of people with drones out there. Anybody can

236
00:13:35.720 --> 00:13:39.200
<v Speaker 1>own a drone, it's not a big deal. Hardly anybody

237
00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:42.279
<v Speaker 1>actually registers their drones. So the numbers of people that

238
00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:46.799
<v Speaker 1>are registering the drones, that's the minority of drone owners.

239
00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:51.120
<v Speaker 1>So you take that into consideration. Then you take into

240
00:13:51.120 --> 00:13:55.759
<v Speaker 1>consideration it started right around the time that people start

241
00:13:55.759 --> 00:13:59.480
<v Speaker 1>putting up Christmas lights, and I know that there are

242
00:13:59.559 --> 00:14:04.679
<v Speaker 1>people hear that fly drones and take video and pictures

243
00:14:04.720 --> 00:14:07.759
<v Speaker 1>of buildings and Christmas lights and everything else all the time.

244
00:14:08.399 --> 00:14:13.080
<v Speaker 1>Then you've got helicopters doing light tours. You've got airplane.

245
00:14:13.120 --> 00:14:15.200
<v Speaker 1>My wife Leslie went up in an airplane to look

246
00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:18.600
<v Speaker 1>at Christmas lights last year, like a little private airplane.

247
00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:23.080
<v Speaker 1>So like there's lots of air traffic going on around

248
00:14:23.159 --> 00:14:27.399
<v Speaker 1>Christmas time especially, and whenever you have this stuff getting

249
00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:30.360
<v Speaker 1>sensationalized on the Internet by people just trying to use

250
00:14:30.360 --> 00:14:34.039
<v Speaker 1>it for content. People are gonna, you know, start reporting

251
00:14:34.080 --> 00:14:37.320
<v Speaker 1>every single light they see in the sky. Yeah, and

252
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:41.279
<v Speaker 1>I don't think that, like, I never saw anything that

253
00:14:41.360 --> 00:14:44.240
<v Speaker 1>I would consider anything other than just like a man

254
00:14:44.320 --> 00:14:49.000
<v Speaker 1>made drone, just like a regular you know, available to

255
00:14:49.159 --> 00:14:53.639
<v Speaker 1>consumer drone being flown around in the sky. I think

256
00:14:53.679 --> 00:14:55.759
<v Speaker 1>it got a lot of attention because of the Internet.

257
00:14:55.879 --> 00:14:57.840
<v Speaker 1>I think there was a lot of fake videos out

258
00:14:57.840 --> 00:15:01.679
<v Speaker 1>there that said, you know, like oh look and showing

259
00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:05.159
<v Speaker 1>some crazy CGI thing that they created and claiming that

260
00:15:05.200 --> 00:15:08.600
<v Speaker 1>they captured this footage over New Jersey, and people just

261
00:15:08.679 --> 00:15:10.519
<v Speaker 1>ran with it. They went crazy with it like they

262
00:15:10.559 --> 00:15:11.080
<v Speaker 1>always do.

263
00:15:12.679 --> 00:15:14.600
<v Speaker 4>You know what really bugged me is that when theyever

264
00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:17.879
<v Speaker 4>the the federal government is saying they don't know what

265
00:15:17.919 --> 00:15:18.240
<v Speaker 4>it is.

266
00:15:18.639 --> 00:15:21.360
<v Speaker 3>That's what really really bugged me the most. Yeah, they

267
00:15:21.480 --> 00:15:24.360
<v Speaker 3>know what it is, they do, they know where it's going.

268
00:15:25.519 --> 00:15:27.679
<v Speaker 1>But see I read like a couple of reports where

269
00:15:27.799 --> 00:15:31.480
<v Speaker 1>it was saying like the local police didn't ask the

270
00:15:31.519 --> 00:15:34.080
<v Speaker 1>federal government for help, So like they're not going to

271
00:15:34.120 --> 00:15:36.399
<v Speaker 1>get involved in something if they haven't been asked to

272
00:15:36.399 --> 00:15:38.519
<v Speaker 1>get involved in something, and they're not going to get

273
00:15:38.559 --> 00:15:41.879
<v Speaker 1>involved in something like, I mean drones, are they really

274
00:15:41.879 --> 00:15:44.519
<v Speaker 1>going to care? Like what are they going to do?

275
00:15:44.919 --> 00:15:48.240
<v Speaker 1>And then on top of that, if you do see

276
00:15:48.279 --> 00:15:51.759
<v Speaker 1>a strange drone up in the sky as a law

277
00:15:51.799 --> 00:15:55.639
<v Speaker 1>enforcement officer or a federal employee of some kind and

278
00:15:55.679 --> 00:15:57.759
<v Speaker 1>you want to go see that drone to see what

279
00:15:57.879 --> 00:16:00.559
<v Speaker 1>it is, you're going to send up another they're drone

280
00:16:00.559 --> 00:16:02.360
<v Speaker 1>to go look at it. You can't go chase it

281
00:16:02.399 --> 00:16:05.159
<v Speaker 1>around with a helicopter or anything. So now you're putting

282
00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:06.919
<v Speaker 1>another drone in this guy. And now that drone is

283
00:16:06.919 --> 00:16:11.039
<v Speaker 1>getting reported as some crazy UFO. I think it's a

284
00:16:11.039 --> 00:16:12.320
<v Speaker 1>lot of tel chasing man.

285
00:16:13.440 --> 00:16:13.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

286
00:16:13.679 --> 00:16:16.840
<v Speaker 4>And then the FAA they have, you know, there's rules

287
00:16:16.879 --> 00:16:20.080
<v Speaker 4>because they consider that like a like almost like a

288
00:16:20.080 --> 00:16:23.200
<v Speaker 4>commercial plane. You can't you can't shoot it down, you

289
00:16:23.240 --> 00:16:26.360
<v Speaker 4>can't right knock it down. So it's like only like

290
00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:31.000
<v Speaker 4>the the DOJ and the FBI, and I think there's

291
00:16:31.039 --> 00:16:35.039
<v Speaker 4>another government entity that can do something about it.

292
00:16:35.440 --> 00:16:37.440
<v Speaker 1>I think one of them crashed or something in New

293
00:16:37.519 --> 00:16:41.279
<v Speaker 1>Jersey and like you know, the fire department and police

294
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:43.840
<v Speaker 1>came out and Hasmat came out, and everybody was like, well,

295
00:16:44.039 --> 00:16:46.600
<v Speaker 1>why such a response if it's just a drunk Well,

296
00:16:46.600 --> 00:16:49.559
<v Speaker 1>because it's a drone because it is treated like an aircraft.

297
00:16:49.679 --> 00:16:52.519
<v Speaker 1>And that's what happens whenever an aircraft crashes, even though

298
00:16:52.559 --> 00:16:55.720
<v Speaker 1>it's something little. They don't know, like maybe it's a

299
00:16:55.840 --> 00:16:58.879
<v Speaker 1>terrorist that has some sort of chemical warfare attached to it.

300
00:16:58.919 --> 00:17:01.919
<v Speaker 1>Maybe the battery he's leaking, like who knows. You know

301
00:17:01.960 --> 00:17:03.159
<v Speaker 1>how regulations are.

302
00:17:04.079 --> 00:17:05.640
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, some of them are big too. Some of those

303
00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:07.000
<v Speaker 4>drones are big, some of them are small.

304
00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:10.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's another thing. I can go out right now

305
00:17:10.359 --> 00:17:12.559
<v Speaker 1>and buy a drone that has a seven foot wingspan,

306
00:17:13.359 --> 00:17:16.359
<v Speaker 1>like that's a normal thing to do. So it's not

307
00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:20.359
<v Speaker 1>crazy to think that people are flying these giant drones

308
00:17:20.440 --> 00:17:22.759
<v Speaker 1>that could be loaded with anything, because they can. They

309
00:17:22.799 --> 00:17:26.559
<v Speaker 1>literally can. There was a guy that I was talking

310
00:17:26.599 --> 00:17:29.240
<v Speaker 1>to for a while out on the West Coast that

311
00:17:29.519 --> 00:17:32.519
<v Speaker 1>we were actually going to partner with on a project

312
00:17:33.319 --> 00:17:35.759
<v Speaker 1>involving Bigfoot. And that's what this guy does is he

313
00:17:35.799 --> 00:17:39.359
<v Speaker 1>builds custom drones for people, and he built drones for

314
00:17:39.400 --> 00:17:42.720
<v Speaker 1>the United States government. He built drones for the police Department,

315
00:17:42.799 --> 00:17:47.440
<v Speaker 1>like giant drones, like twelve feet wide drones, not like

316
00:17:47.519 --> 00:17:51.160
<v Speaker 1>the little djis that you buy it Best Buy. So, like,

317
00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:53.240
<v Speaker 1>these things do exist and people own them and they

318
00:17:53.240 --> 00:17:53.920
<v Speaker 1>fly them around.

319
00:17:55.559 --> 00:17:56.039
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

320
00:17:56.279 --> 00:18:00.000
<v Speaker 1>I like I said, tell chasing people running wild with it,

321
00:18:00.039 --> 00:18:03.000
<v Speaker 1>And I know there's people listening to the show that

322
00:18:03.079 --> 00:18:05.200
<v Speaker 1>are going to be like, well I saw on TikTok

323
00:18:05.279 --> 00:18:07.559
<v Speaker 1>and it was an alien Like Okay, good for you, man.

324
00:18:07.680 --> 00:18:10.079
<v Speaker 1>I don't care. I'm just telling you my opinion on this.

325
00:18:10.599 --> 00:18:13.839
<v Speaker 1>Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe it's a huge alien invasion that

326
00:18:14.039 --> 00:18:16.640
<v Speaker 1>just for some reason is interested in New Jersey.

327
00:18:16.720 --> 00:18:17.119
<v Speaker 2>I don't know.

328
00:18:17.480 --> 00:18:20.519
<v Speaker 3>Jersey devil yep, Jersey Devil drone.

329
00:18:20.799 --> 00:18:23.960
<v Speaker 1>So on social media, I asked around a few places

330
00:18:23.960 --> 00:18:26.400
<v Speaker 1>for people to send in questions that they might like

331
00:18:26.440 --> 00:18:29.640
<v Speaker 1>to hear asked on a question and answer session, and

332
00:18:30.039 --> 00:18:32.359
<v Speaker 1>these are some of the ones I got.

333
00:18:33.480 --> 00:18:33.839
<v Speaker 2>First.

334
00:18:33.839 --> 00:18:37.319
<v Speaker 1>One is from Lauren, what is your most mind blowing

335
00:18:37.359 --> 00:18:41.319
<v Speaker 1>bigfoot experience that you personally had, also that you have

336
00:18:41.400 --> 00:18:45.759
<v Speaker 1>heard from someone else. The most mind blowing bigfoot experience

337
00:18:45.759 --> 00:18:50.440
<v Speaker 1>that I've personally had is probably going to be the

338
00:18:50.480 --> 00:18:53.279
<v Speaker 1>one where I didn't actually see a bigfoot. It's probably

339
00:18:53.279 --> 00:18:57.599
<v Speaker 1>going to be the one where I believe that a

340
00:18:57.640 --> 00:19:01.880
<v Speaker 1>bigfoot came in and checked the door handles on my

341
00:19:01.960 --> 00:19:05.079
<v Speaker 1>vehicle and tried to get into it, which sounds crazy,

342
00:19:05.160 --> 00:19:10.359
<v Speaker 1>but that's what happened camping. Woke up one of those

343
00:19:10.519 --> 00:19:13.480
<v Speaker 1>startled awakes where you suddenly wake up and you don't

344
00:19:13.480 --> 00:19:16.880
<v Speaker 1>know why you're awake. So I laid there listening, and

345
00:19:16.920 --> 00:19:19.880
<v Speaker 1>I could hear something walking just outside the tent wall,

346
00:19:21.240 --> 00:19:25.279
<v Speaker 1>very quietly. And then I heard something else walking in

347
00:19:25.359 --> 00:19:29.200
<v Speaker 1>front of the tent. My vehicle has parked a few

348
00:19:29.200 --> 00:19:33.000
<v Speaker 1>feet away from me. I can't see anything. It's the

349
00:19:33.039 --> 00:19:37.400
<v Speaker 1>middle of the night. And I heard something whispering to

350
00:19:37.440 --> 00:19:42.759
<v Speaker 1>something else. Couldn't tell what they were saying. Then I

351
00:19:42.839 --> 00:19:47.920
<v Speaker 1>heard the distinct sound of the door handle, like the

352
00:19:47.920 --> 00:19:50.920
<v Speaker 1>car handle snapping back down, like if you lift it

353
00:19:51.039 --> 00:19:52.799
<v Speaker 1>up on the handle and it slipped out of your

354
00:19:52.799 --> 00:19:56.680
<v Speaker 1>fingers and slammed back down from the spring. And at

355
00:19:56.680 --> 00:20:01.160
<v Speaker 1>that point I thought, somebody is trying to break into

356
00:20:01.160 --> 00:20:05.759
<v Speaker 1>the vehicles. They're still in our stuff. I had a

357
00:20:05.759 --> 00:20:10.720
<v Speaker 1>firearm with me. I grabbed it, put my feet in

358
00:20:10.759 --> 00:20:16.799
<v Speaker 1>my boots, grabbed my spotlight. Realized that the lanterns outside

359
00:20:17.039 --> 00:20:19.839
<v Speaker 1>the tent had been turned off. We had three of

360
00:20:19.880 --> 00:20:23.000
<v Speaker 1>them lit before we turned in, and all three of

361
00:20:23.039 --> 00:20:26.559
<v Speaker 1>them were off. I wasn't sure what time it was,

362
00:20:27.480 --> 00:20:31.519
<v Speaker 1>but typically those lanterns would have lasted around eight hours,

363
00:20:32.000 --> 00:20:35.240
<v Speaker 1>and I knew it hadn't been eight hours, and so

364
00:20:35.279 --> 00:20:37.160
<v Speaker 1>there was no way that all three of them had

365
00:20:37.160 --> 00:20:40.400
<v Speaker 1>already ran out of fuel. So that kind of freaked

366
00:20:40.400 --> 00:20:44.000
<v Speaker 1>me out. So I decided to try and wake up

367
00:20:44.599 --> 00:20:47.799
<v Speaker 1>the other guys that were with me. One of them

368
00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:52.119
<v Speaker 1>was like partially deaf in one ear and sound asleep,

369
00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:57.000
<v Speaker 1>didn't even hear me. The other guy heard me, so

370
00:20:57.079 --> 00:20:59.359
<v Speaker 1>he woke up and met me outside the tents. Because

371
00:20:59.680 --> 00:21:02.359
<v Speaker 1>I I thought about it for a while, and I

372
00:21:02.400 --> 00:21:04.119
<v Speaker 1>didn't want to just go busting out of the tent

373
00:21:04.200 --> 00:21:08.119
<v Speaker 1>with the gun because in my mind, there's people out

374
00:21:08.160 --> 00:21:11.480
<v Speaker 1>there and maybe they're armed, and I'm like, in a

375
00:21:11.559 --> 00:21:14.000
<v Speaker 1>national park, I'm not even supposed to have a firearm.

376
00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:16.119
<v Speaker 2>What am I going to do? Am I just going

377
00:21:16.200 --> 00:21:17.759
<v Speaker 2>to start shooting at them?

378
00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:20.799
<v Speaker 1>So I thought it was best just to yell at

379
00:21:20.799 --> 00:21:23.960
<v Speaker 1>my buddy and let these people.

380
00:21:23.720 --> 00:21:25.200
<v Speaker 2>Run off if that's what they wanted to do.

381
00:21:25.279 --> 00:21:29.799
<v Speaker 1>The problem was never heard, anybody run off, didn't hear anything.

382
00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:34.079
<v Speaker 1>Came out of the tent, shining the spotlight around nothing.

383
00:21:34.839 --> 00:21:38.920
<v Speaker 1>There's nothing anywhere, no movement, no sound. The park's empty.

384
00:21:40.400 --> 00:21:44.240
<v Speaker 1>Nothing in the vehicle is taken. The car doors were

385
00:21:44.279 --> 00:21:49.839
<v Speaker 1>actually unlocked, and my wallet and stuff was like laying

386
00:21:49.920 --> 00:21:53.640
<v Speaker 1>in the center console. There was like a walkie talking

387
00:21:53.720 --> 00:21:56.000
<v Speaker 1>and another spotlight I think, laying on the seat. Nothing

388
00:21:56.079 --> 00:22:00.279
<v Speaker 1>was taken, So yeah, that was kind of weird. Buddy

389
00:22:00.359 --> 00:22:04.400
<v Speaker 1>called the park ranger to report, you know, that we

390
00:22:04.440 --> 00:22:07.839
<v Speaker 1>had prowlers at our campsite, because I mean I heard

391
00:22:07.880 --> 00:22:10.680
<v Speaker 1>the footsteps and I heard the voices, and I heard

392
00:22:10.680 --> 00:22:15.559
<v Speaker 1>the door handle, so like, still, it's definitely somebody. It's

393
00:22:15.599 --> 00:22:17.920
<v Speaker 1>not an animal. It's not a raccoon getting into the

394
00:22:17.960 --> 00:22:24.440
<v Speaker 1>cooler or anything. And the other guy wakes up and

395
00:22:24.519 --> 00:22:27.000
<v Speaker 1>he's like, did you check for tracks? Well, no, I

396
00:22:27.000 --> 00:22:28.839
<v Speaker 1>didn't check for tracks. Why did I check for tracks?

397
00:22:29.440 --> 00:22:31.759
<v Speaker 1>So I shined the spotlight over by the side of

398
00:22:31.759 --> 00:22:34.480
<v Speaker 1>the tent where I first heard the footsteps, and you

399
00:22:34.519 --> 00:22:41.160
<v Speaker 1>could clearly see barefoot five toes impressions in the pea

400
00:22:41.200 --> 00:22:44.759
<v Speaker 1>gravel around the campsite next to the tent. The other

401
00:22:44.799 --> 00:22:48.559
<v Speaker 1>one coming in front of the tent, tracked them as

402
00:22:48.599 --> 00:22:54.680
<v Speaker 1>they left the campsite area. One of them actually stepped

403
00:22:54.839 --> 00:22:59.279
<v Speaker 1>between the two tents that we had out there and

404
00:22:59.559 --> 00:23:01.480
<v Speaker 1>this space. It's like I had a huge tint at

405
00:23:01.519 --> 00:23:05.119
<v Speaker 1>the time, it was like eight by twelve feet, and

406
00:23:05.160 --> 00:23:07.480
<v Speaker 1>then there was another little dome tent next to it,

407
00:23:08.519 --> 00:23:11.680
<v Speaker 1>probably about the way that we had them set up.

408
00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:13.839
<v Speaker 1>The tents were side by side, so there was maybe

409
00:23:15.079 --> 00:23:19.720
<v Speaker 1>a ten inch gap between them, and something that wasn't

410
00:23:19.759 --> 00:23:24.359
<v Speaker 1>wearing shoes and had a human shaped footprint stepped one

411
00:23:24.400 --> 00:23:27.680
<v Speaker 1>step in between the tents, and then the next step

412
00:23:27.720 --> 00:23:31.000
<v Speaker 1>was on the back side of the tent, so at

413
00:23:31.039 --> 00:23:37.279
<v Speaker 1>least an eight foot stride in total. Wow, couldn't find anything.

414
00:23:37.319 --> 00:23:41.400
<v Speaker 1>Man couldn't find anything. And all the lanterns still had

415
00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:44.319
<v Speaker 1>fuel in them and had been turned off. The knobs

416
00:23:44.359 --> 00:23:45.880
<v Speaker 1>had been turned to the off position.

417
00:23:47.839 --> 00:23:53.839
<v Speaker 3>Bad. That's creepy right now, dude, Yeah, I got did

418
00:23:53.880 --> 00:23:55.160
<v Speaker 3>you Did you smell anything?

419
00:23:56.119 --> 00:23:56.480
<v Speaker 2>Nothing?

420
00:23:58.119 --> 00:23:58.880
<v Speaker 3>Nothing?

421
00:23:58.920 --> 00:24:02.160
<v Speaker 4>So when the last you heard of it, it was

422
00:24:02.279 --> 00:24:04.640
<v Speaker 4>it was bestling with your door handle.

423
00:24:04.480 --> 00:24:07.839
<v Speaker 1>Right, Yeah, it was like, So I woke up and

424
00:24:07.880 --> 00:24:10.319
<v Speaker 1>I knew that something must have woken me up, or

425
00:24:10.319 --> 00:24:13.079
<v Speaker 1>at least that's what I thought, you know, And so

426
00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:17.680
<v Speaker 1>like I laid there just like listening intently, and I

427
00:24:17.759 --> 00:24:20.640
<v Speaker 1>heard the footsteps right next to my tent. Well, now

428
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:23.680
<v Speaker 1>keep in mind, we were expecting people from out of

429
00:24:23.680 --> 00:24:25.960
<v Speaker 1>town to arrive in the middle of the night, and

430
00:24:26.000 --> 00:24:27.880
<v Speaker 1>that's why we had the lanterns on so they could

431
00:24:27.880 --> 00:24:29.759
<v Speaker 1>see where we were camped at and everything and have

432
00:24:29.920 --> 00:24:32.400
<v Speaker 1>light to come in and set up their tent or whatever.

433
00:24:33.000 --> 00:24:35.960
<v Speaker 1>So I thought it was them trying to be quiet

434
00:24:36.480 --> 00:24:39.440
<v Speaker 1>at first, and then I heard the other one walking

435
00:24:39.519 --> 00:24:43.000
<v Speaker 1>in front of the tent, and then I heard the whispering.

436
00:24:44.480 --> 00:24:47.039
<v Speaker 1>So I just like kind of sat there and you know,

437
00:24:47.119 --> 00:24:49.119
<v Speaker 1>because I couldn't tell who it was. And then I

438
00:24:49.160 --> 00:24:51.400
<v Speaker 1>heard the car door handle and I was like, well, now,

439
00:24:51.440 --> 00:24:54.440
<v Speaker 1>hold on a second. And that was right around the

440
00:24:54.480 --> 00:24:57.599
<v Speaker 1>time that I noticed that the lanterns were off, and

441
00:24:57.640 --> 00:25:02.440
<v Speaker 1>so my mind just started, you know, lanterns off, door handle, whispering,

442
00:25:03.519 --> 00:25:07.400
<v Speaker 1>somebody's trying to steal our stuff. And so then it

443
00:25:07.480 --> 00:25:09.480
<v Speaker 1>was like, you know, the process of like, okay, well

444
00:25:09.519 --> 00:25:12.680
<v Speaker 1>what do you do about it? And uh, instead of

445
00:25:12.720 --> 00:25:15.720
<v Speaker 1>going out guns blazing, I decided to I popped the

446
00:25:15.759 --> 00:25:18.400
<v Speaker 1>spotlight on a couple of times, you know, just a

447
00:25:18.480 --> 00:25:23.200
<v Speaker 1>flash it and like listen, nothing yelled for the other guy.

448
00:25:24.079 --> 00:25:26.240
<v Speaker 1>And uh that's whenever we came out of the tents

449
00:25:26.240 --> 00:25:26.759
<v Speaker 1>and everything.

450
00:25:28.319 --> 00:25:35.160
<v Speaker 4>So the vehicles are in gravel, right yeah, yeah, okay, right,

451
00:25:35.160 --> 00:25:35.880
<v Speaker 4>next to the vehicle.

452
00:25:36.279 --> 00:25:37.359
<v Speaker 3>Is there grass.

453
00:25:37.880 --> 00:25:40.440
<v Speaker 1>So the way that it is is there's like a

454
00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:46.480
<v Speaker 1>paved asphalt road that kind of has like a branch

455
00:25:46.519 --> 00:25:48.160
<v Speaker 1>of it that curves off and it's like a half

456
00:25:48.200 --> 00:25:52.559
<v Speaker 1>circle drive. And then there's these boulders that like sit

457
00:25:52.680 --> 00:25:54.599
<v Speaker 1>at the edge of the road, so you can't drive

458
00:25:54.640 --> 00:25:59.559
<v Speaker 1>a vehicle into the campsite. And my vehicles parked on

459
00:25:59.599 --> 00:26:02.559
<v Speaker 1>the sit side of those boulders right next to my tent.

460
00:26:03.160 --> 00:26:05.960
<v Speaker 1>And then the entire campsite itself is that pea gravel,

461
00:26:06.279 --> 00:26:08.839
<v Speaker 1>so there's no grass or anything. There's just like the

462
00:26:08.880 --> 00:26:13.079
<v Speaker 1>pea gravel, a boulder and the asphalt road and woods.

463
00:26:14.160 --> 00:26:16.359
<v Speaker 4>You know, I am so amazed at something because I

464
00:26:16.400 --> 00:26:18.839
<v Speaker 4>hear so many stories from your from your end and

465
00:26:18.880 --> 00:26:23.359
<v Speaker 4>then from other people how these these creatures are. They're

466
00:26:23.400 --> 00:26:26.880
<v Speaker 4>heard walking around and then all of a sudden they're gone, yeah,

467
00:26:27.400 --> 00:26:32.039
<v Speaker 4>without a sound, and and like stuff, you know, even

468
00:26:32.119 --> 00:26:35.279
<v Speaker 4>like a like an armadillo or raccoon just walking through

469
00:26:35.319 --> 00:26:39.559
<v Speaker 4>the woods that makes a loud a loud sound. Yeah,

470
00:26:39.880 --> 00:26:41.960
<v Speaker 4>And for them to be this size and then walk away,

471
00:26:42.000 --> 00:26:45.119
<v Speaker 4>even if it's a person, they're walking off in the woods.

472
00:26:45.240 --> 00:26:49.680
<v Speaker 1>So there's like two of them and there was no

473
00:26:49.799 --> 00:26:52.880
<v Speaker 1>running off sound. There is no like feet hitting the

474
00:26:52.880 --> 00:26:56.480
<v Speaker 1>pavement running. There was no crashing through the woods, none

475
00:26:56.480 --> 00:27:00.519
<v Speaker 1>of that. And whenever we tracked them, like it went

476
00:27:00.759 --> 00:27:03.640
<v Speaker 1>between the tents and out the back, while the other

477
00:27:03.680 --> 00:27:06.559
<v Speaker 1>one went the opposite direction and like kind of went

478
00:27:06.920 --> 00:27:10.200
<v Speaker 1>with the road away from the tent. So they went

479
00:27:10.240 --> 00:27:13.599
<v Speaker 1>in two different directions. And the one that went like,

480
00:27:13.759 --> 00:27:15.640
<v Speaker 1>I mean, why didn't I hear it step between the

481
00:27:15.680 --> 00:27:19.200
<v Speaker 1>tents and go into the woods behind the tent? Yeah,

482
00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:21.640
<v Speaker 1>And like it we could see where it stepped between

483
00:27:21.640 --> 00:27:24.279
<v Speaker 1>the tents, and then we could see where its other

484
00:27:24.359 --> 00:27:27.079
<v Speaker 1>foot landed behind the tents, and then the next foot

485
00:27:27.160 --> 00:27:30.880
<v Speaker 1>was in the trees gone, And I mean this is

486
00:27:30.920 --> 00:27:33.720
<v Speaker 1>like on pea gravel, So like we could see the

487
00:27:33.759 --> 00:27:36.000
<v Speaker 1>impression of the foot and you could count the toes

488
00:27:36.039 --> 00:27:37.680
<v Speaker 1>and see the outline of the foot and everything, but

489
00:27:37.720 --> 00:27:41.880
<v Speaker 1>there was like no way to cast this stuff. Yeah,

490
00:27:42.039 --> 00:27:46.279
<v Speaker 1>and they weren't like exceptionally huge tracks. I think the

491
00:27:46.400 --> 00:27:49.680
<v Speaker 1>largest one was probably around twelve or thirteen inches and

492
00:27:49.759 --> 00:27:51.359
<v Speaker 1>the other one was like an inch or two smaller

493
00:27:51.400 --> 00:27:54.599
<v Speaker 1>than that one. The other guy had already called the

494
00:27:54.640 --> 00:27:58.839
<v Speaker 1>park rangers office before I saw the tracks on the ground.

495
00:27:59.799 --> 00:28:03.480
<v Speaker 1>So the ranger showed up and we had to file

496
00:28:03.519 --> 00:28:06.039
<v Speaker 1>a report and everything, and the three of us are

497
00:28:06.039 --> 00:28:08.279
<v Speaker 1>like sitting in my tent waiting for the ranger to

498
00:28:08.319 --> 00:28:12.599
<v Speaker 1>get there, and I'm telling them exactly what happened before

499
00:28:12.680 --> 00:28:16.480
<v Speaker 1>they woke up, and we're talking about the tracks and everything,

500
00:28:16.920 --> 00:28:18.799
<v Speaker 1>and I look at him, I said, I don't think

501
00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:22.119
<v Speaker 1>we should tell the ranger about the tracks. And at

502
00:28:22.119 --> 00:28:26.359
<v Speaker 1>that moment, the ranger turns on his flashlight. He's standing

503
00:28:26.440 --> 00:28:30.240
<v Speaker 1>right there looking at us. He had walked in from

504
00:28:30.319 --> 00:28:33.160
<v Speaker 1>the opening of the park, like where the campsite is,

505
00:28:33.200 --> 00:28:36.799
<v Speaker 1>because it's like separate, separated into different like campground areas,

506
00:28:37.480 --> 00:28:39.799
<v Speaker 1>and the road that leads into where we were at.

507
00:28:40.240 --> 00:28:42.799
<v Speaker 1>He had parked at the entrance and walked in in

508
00:28:42.880 --> 00:28:47.079
<v Speaker 1>the dark. And this guy, this park ranger, it was

509
00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:51.720
<v Speaker 1>kind of weird because this park is known for bigfoot sightings,

510
00:28:52.000 --> 00:28:54.759
<v Speaker 1>like tourists have bigfoot sidings there each year and stuff.

511
00:28:55.599 --> 00:29:01.200
<v Speaker 1>And this guy got transferred from the Pacific Northwest as

512
00:29:01.240 --> 00:29:04.759
<v Speaker 1>a park ranger to come work in a park in Oklahoma,

513
00:29:05.160 --> 00:29:07.359
<v Speaker 1>and we just always thought that was kind of strange.

514
00:29:08.200 --> 00:29:10.640
<v Speaker 1>And he was the guy that worked the graveyard shift

515
00:29:10.720 --> 00:29:12.359
<v Speaker 1>by himself, in this park.

516
00:29:14.319 --> 00:29:16.119
<v Speaker 4>I guess he wanted the element of surprise.

517
00:29:17.039 --> 00:29:17.519
<v Speaker 2>I guess so.

518
00:29:17.839 --> 00:29:21.480
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, we didn't hear him walk up, so it

519
00:29:21.559 --> 00:29:23.680
<v Speaker 1>is possible that a person can walk up without making

520
00:29:23.720 --> 00:29:27.400
<v Speaker 1>any noise. But yeah, so he was standing there. We

521
00:29:27.519 --> 00:29:31.240
<v Speaker 1>told him what happened, and you know, he was like, well,

522
00:29:32.400 --> 00:29:35.240
<v Speaker 1>there's nobody else in this park. I just walked in

523
00:29:35.279 --> 00:29:38.640
<v Speaker 1>on the only road that comes in here. Didn't see anybody,

524
00:29:38.680 --> 00:29:41.799
<v Speaker 1>didn't hear anybody. He's like, did you see any flashlights

525
00:29:41.880 --> 00:29:42.279
<v Speaker 1>or anything?

526
00:29:42.279 --> 00:29:42.920
<v Speaker 2>It was like nope.

527
00:29:44.000 --> 00:29:47.319
<v Speaker 1>And he was like, well, they didn't pass me, So

528
00:29:47.400 --> 00:29:50.119
<v Speaker 1>the only other way that they could come in is

529
00:29:50.160 --> 00:29:53.519
<v Speaker 1>to walk seven miles through the woods. I was just like, well,

530
00:29:53.799 --> 00:29:54.720
<v Speaker 1>I don't know what to tell you.

531
00:29:54.720 --> 00:29:54.920
<v Speaker 3>Man.

532
00:29:56.000 --> 00:30:00.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that's what all of that is.

533
00:30:01.000 --> 00:30:06.359
<v Speaker 1>One thing, But turning off the lanterns, man, what what

534
00:30:06.559 --> 00:30:10.960
<v Speaker 1>is that? What is turning like? How is that even

535
00:30:11.000 --> 00:30:13.000
<v Speaker 1>a thing? How is that even possible?

536
00:30:13.920 --> 00:30:16.160
<v Speaker 4>That sounds like they're veterans, that's what. It sounds like.

537
00:30:16.400 --> 00:30:18.400
<v Speaker 4>They've done it before, They've.

538
00:30:17.920 --> 00:30:21.440
<v Speaker 5>Come across the lanterns before, and or one of them

539
00:30:21.559 --> 00:30:23.759
<v Speaker 5>was like messing with them. You know, they were like

540
00:30:24.000 --> 00:30:26.559
<v Speaker 5>they figured it out, and oh do that one to this.

541
00:30:26.920 --> 00:30:29.799
<v Speaker 2>Oh I was out, dude. I was out after that happened.

542
00:30:30.200 --> 00:30:33.240
<v Speaker 1>You know, this was in my prime, you know, my

543
00:30:33.359 --> 00:30:37.640
<v Speaker 1>peak bigfoot field days, and at that point I was like, nope,

544
00:30:37.839 --> 00:30:39.359
<v Speaker 1>I'm not doing this.

545
00:30:40.039 --> 00:30:42.920
<v Speaker 2>That does that's oh dude.

546
00:30:43.000 --> 00:30:46.200
<v Speaker 1>I didn't go back into the woods. I left after

547
00:30:46.240 --> 00:30:48.079
<v Speaker 1>that trip and went home and did not go back

548
00:30:48.079 --> 00:30:50.720
<v Speaker 1>into the woods for a long time because I just

549
00:30:50.799 --> 00:30:52.720
<v Speaker 1>I couldn't wrap my head around it. I mean, eventually

550
00:30:52.759 --> 00:30:56.000
<v Speaker 1>we got to the part where we were like, okay, well,

551
00:30:56.119 --> 00:30:59.400
<v Speaker 1>you know they do hang around this park. They see

552
00:30:59.480 --> 00:31:03.319
<v Speaker 1>people can maybe they've just observed people turning those little

553
00:31:03.359 --> 00:31:06.000
<v Speaker 1>knobs to turn off the lanterns, and they've seen it

554
00:31:06.039 --> 00:31:08.200
<v Speaker 1>happen so many times that one of them figured out

555
00:31:08.599 --> 00:31:09.119
<v Speaker 1>to do that.

556
00:31:10.519 --> 00:31:12.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean I wouldn't be surprised. I mean, they

557
00:31:13.079 --> 00:31:13.960
<v Speaker 3>watch a lot of people.

558
00:31:15.119 --> 00:31:21.319
<v Speaker 1>Or there was two people that went barefoot and didn't

559
00:31:21.400 --> 00:31:25.799
<v Speaker 1>use flashlights and hiked seven miles through the woods to

560
00:31:25.839 --> 00:31:29.599
<v Speaker 1>snoop around our campsite and turn off our lanterns, and

561
00:31:29.640 --> 00:31:33.839
<v Speaker 1>then ran off back into the woods in different directions

562
00:31:33.880 --> 00:31:36.799
<v Speaker 1>without making any noise and without using flashlights.

563
00:31:37.359 --> 00:31:39.319
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's possible, possible.

564
00:31:40.680 --> 00:31:44.599
<v Speaker 1>The story that stands out that I've heard from someone

565
00:31:44.599 --> 00:31:50.319
<v Speaker 1>else is definitely well, Bob, you were the first guy

566
00:31:50.359 --> 00:31:52.319
<v Speaker 1>I talked to about this, the old man at the

567
00:31:52.319 --> 00:31:54.599
<v Speaker 1>hospital that told me he had shot one when he

568
00:31:54.640 --> 00:31:55.119
<v Speaker 1>was a kid.

569
00:31:56.440 --> 00:31:59.400
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and you didn't get his name, and we always

570
00:31:59.400 --> 00:32:00.039
<v Speaker 4>think about that.

571
00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:02.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, didn't get any of his information.

572
00:32:03.599 --> 00:32:05.799
<v Speaker 1>Forgot that I had a podcast where I talked to

573
00:32:05.799 --> 00:32:10.000
<v Speaker 1>people about their bigfoot experiences. I mean, it just never

574
00:32:10.039 --> 00:32:13.519
<v Speaker 1>even crossed my mind. It was a really like emotional

575
00:32:13.519 --> 00:32:16.279
<v Speaker 1>moment for him and me. I mean, obviously for him

576
00:32:16.319 --> 00:32:18.440
<v Speaker 1>he had tears well up in his eyes and everything.

577
00:32:18.519 --> 00:32:22.960
<v Speaker 1>But it was just a random chance encounter where we

578
00:32:22.960 --> 00:32:26.720
<v Speaker 1>were crossing paths in a hospital waiting room and I

579
00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:28.240
<v Speaker 1>happened to be wearing a big foot shirt.

580
00:32:29.680 --> 00:32:32.880
<v Speaker 4>That always gets me too, because that you you wearing

581
00:32:32.920 --> 00:32:39.400
<v Speaker 4>that shirt prompted that exchange, that emotional exchange between you both,

582
00:32:39.480 --> 00:32:42.400
<v Speaker 4>and I thought that was that was great.

583
00:32:43.160 --> 00:32:47.680
<v Speaker 1>And I'm not a bigfoot shirt guy. Okay, I love bigfoot.

584
00:32:47.920 --> 00:32:50.440
<v Speaker 1>I have a podcast, but I don't wear a lot

585
00:32:50.519 --> 00:32:51.880
<v Speaker 1>of bigfoot shirts.

586
00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:52.119
<v Speaker 2>You know.

587
00:32:52.640 --> 00:32:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and I that one. It's kind of a weird deal.

588
00:32:58.200 --> 00:33:01.960
<v Speaker 1>You know, my wife's parents gave it to me. Her

589
00:33:02.000 --> 00:33:05.599
<v Speaker 1>father passed away and that's whenever I started wearing the shirt,

590
00:33:05.960 --> 00:33:08.400
<v Speaker 1>you know, I felt bad because I didn't wear it before.

591
00:33:08.480 --> 00:33:11.039
<v Speaker 1>And it's just kind of like a connection, you know,

592
00:33:11.160 --> 00:33:13.480
<v Speaker 1>like an emotional connection to him and everything, and.

593
00:33:13.720 --> 00:33:16.839
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I wear it as a lucky shirt.

594
00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:18.799
<v Speaker 1>And you know, that day I was going in for

595
00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:20.920
<v Speaker 1>some tests and I wanted to wear my lucky shirt

596
00:33:20.920 --> 00:33:23.799
<v Speaker 1>and that's why I had it on. What about you guys,

597
00:33:23.799 --> 00:33:27.759
<v Speaker 1>what's your what's the biggest Bigfoot experience that stands on

598
00:33:27.839 --> 00:33:28.400
<v Speaker 1>in your minds?

599
00:33:30.079 --> 00:33:32.920
<v Speaker 4>I had to be one when we were together. Yeah right,

600
00:33:33.319 --> 00:33:36.079
<v Speaker 4>I was gonna say big Sandy, Big Sandy. Yeah I was.

601
00:33:36.160 --> 00:33:40.000
<v Speaker 4>We were out with Luke and Billy Simmons, Tim Clay

602
00:33:40.240 --> 00:33:42.599
<v Speaker 4>and it was another paranormal group that was there. We

603
00:33:43.000 --> 00:33:47.400
<v Speaker 4>were originally there to do paranormal because it was a

604
00:33:47.440 --> 00:33:51.039
<v Speaker 4>Civil Wars cemetery and so there was a lot of

605
00:33:51.880 --> 00:33:56.119
<v Speaker 4>history of getting EVPs and stuff like that and orbs there.

606
00:33:56.559 --> 00:34:02.079
<v Speaker 4>So we accompanied this paranormal group there and there was

607
00:34:02.119 --> 00:34:05.480
<v Speaker 4>also Bigfoot sightings in that area as well, and so

608
00:34:05.599 --> 00:34:07.599
<v Speaker 4>as soon as they were done with their with their

609
00:34:08.199 --> 00:34:11.760
<v Speaker 4>their paranormal session, we we did a couple of yells

610
00:34:11.840 --> 00:34:15.519
<v Speaker 4>and we did a couple of tree docks and we

611
00:34:15.559 --> 00:34:18.320
<v Speaker 4>got responses like immediately and it was like your first

612
00:34:18.320 --> 00:34:20.599
<v Speaker 4>time out right, See, well it was my first time,

613
00:34:22.800 --> 00:34:29.039
<v Speaker 4>I guess getting an actual callback. Yeah, and then other stuff,

614
00:34:29.679 --> 00:34:32.920
<v Speaker 4>little stuff that you've always mentioned, and they were just

615
00:34:33.000 --> 00:34:35.119
<v Speaker 4>coming in left and right, and it was it was

616
00:34:35.199 --> 00:34:37.199
<v Speaker 4>a perfect storm because like we we had did a

617
00:34:37.199 --> 00:34:39.519
<v Speaker 4>couple of tree docks, Matt, and then I did a

618
00:34:39.639 --> 00:34:42.960
<v Speaker 4>yell because I'm I'm famous for my yell, and so

619
00:34:43.639 --> 00:34:46.400
<v Speaker 4>I did a yell and within maybe two minutes, we

620
00:34:46.440 --> 00:34:49.280
<v Speaker 4>got a yell like maybe at like three hundred yards

621
00:34:49.320 --> 00:34:51.840
<v Speaker 4>to our right, and then we got another yell maybe

622
00:34:51.920 --> 00:34:54.440
<v Speaker 4>to our left, and it was like there were they

623
00:34:54.440 --> 00:34:56.960
<v Speaker 4>were coming to our area to see what what was

624
00:34:57.000 --> 00:34:57.519
<v Speaker 4>going on.

625
00:34:58.280 --> 00:34:58.760
<v Speaker 3>And then.

626
00:35:00.159 --> 00:35:02.920
<v Speaker 4>We were facing the woods and there was a road

627
00:35:02.960 --> 00:35:05.320
<v Speaker 4>behind us, probably like I don't know, like thirty forty

628
00:35:05.360 --> 00:35:08.079
<v Speaker 4>yards and there was no lights out there, There was

629
00:35:08.119 --> 00:35:10.880
<v Speaker 4>no power lines, there was nothing. And to our left

630
00:35:11.159 --> 00:35:15.679
<v Speaker 4>was a creek that a small creek tributary that went

631
00:35:16.280 --> 00:35:18.159
<v Speaker 4>to the road and went under the road. It was

632
00:35:18.199 --> 00:35:22.639
<v Speaker 4>like a little bitty bridge maybe like thirty yards down

633
00:35:22.760 --> 00:35:27.000
<v Speaker 4>down the road. And as we were hearing these tree knocks,

634
00:35:28.360 --> 00:35:30.360
<v Speaker 4>one of us, I think it was Billy Simmons had

635
00:35:30.360 --> 00:35:33.000
<v Speaker 4>a light and he was flashed it towards the creek

636
00:35:33.559 --> 00:35:35.679
<v Speaker 4>to our left, and then we had eye shine about

637
00:35:35.679 --> 00:35:39.519
<v Speaker 4>eight feet off the ground and we all said eye

638
00:35:39.519 --> 00:35:42.440
<v Speaker 4>shine and it was like it was like red red eyes,

639
00:35:42.519 --> 00:35:45.960
<v Speaker 4>right yeah. And so as we noticed it, then we

640
00:35:46.039 --> 00:35:49.199
<v Speaker 4>got pelted by rocks from across the street and you

641
00:35:49.239 --> 00:35:51.719
<v Speaker 4>could hear it because it was hitting all these rocks

642
00:35:51.760 --> 00:35:54.760
<v Speaker 4>were hitting these tree canopy leaves and it was going

643
00:35:54.760 --> 00:35:57.599
<v Speaker 4>through the trees and you were hearing. And then we

644
00:35:57.679 --> 00:36:00.440
<v Speaker 4>hit the round but thud and I we go. We

645
00:36:00.519 --> 00:36:03.920
<v Speaker 4>got rocks behind us. As soon as we turned to

646
00:36:04.760 --> 00:36:07.360
<v Speaker 4>like the behind us where the rocks were coming from,

647
00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:11.559
<v Speaker 4>Matt the ice shines were gone. Yeah, they were gone.

648
00:36:12.199 --> 00:36:15.039
<v Speaker 4>And then there was maybe within thirty seconds, it was

649
00:36:15.079 --> 00:36:19.000
<v Speaker 4>a truck hauling hauling down the road and it was

650
00:36:19.039 --> 00:36:21.679
<v Speaker 4>heading toward you can hear it.

651
00:36:21.679 --> 00:36:23.840
<v Speaker 5>It's one of those old trucks that was the head

652
00:36:23.880 --> 00:36:27.320
<v Speaker 5>that like you can hear it. And my first thought

653
00:36:27.440 --> 00:36:30.000
<v Speaker 5>was like, man, this is gonna scare whatever we're getting,

654
00:36:30.440 --> 00:36:30.840
<v Speaker 5>it's going to.

655
00:36:30.840 --> 00:36:32.719
<v Speaker 3>Scare it away. Yeah, this sucks.

656
00:36:32.880 --> 00:36:34.840
<v Speaker 5>This this is oh well, like it was, it was

657
00:36:35.480 --> 00:36:39.440
<v Speaker 5>well lasted, and then it passed us, and then it happened.

658
00:36:39.159 --> 00:36:42.199
<v Speaker 4>As soon as it got to that that part, Matt,

659
00:36:42.239 --> 00:36:46.239
<v Speaker 4>where the with the where the creek met the road

660
00:36:46.360 --> 00:36:49.559
<v Speaker 4>the road, it slammed on the brakes right before it

661
00:36:49.800 --> 00:36:52.280
<v Speaker 4>hit the creek, and we all ran to the road

662
00:36:52.559 --> 00:36:54.400
<v Speaker 4>to see because we couldn't see from that.

663
00:36:54.480 --> 00:36:58.079
<v Speaker 3>We could just see like the tail lights.

664
00:36:58.119 --> 00:37:01.280
<v Speaker 4>And then it backed up little bit and then hauled

665
00:37:01.360 --> 00:37:05.000
<v Speaker 4>ass and then continue to hall Ass and then within

666
00:37:05.119 --> 00:37:10.039
<v Speaker 4>maybe like four or five minutes, one of the constable

667
00:37:10.199 --> 00:37:13.480
<v Speaker 4>or local sheriff was driving by and he stopped and

668
00:37:13.559 --> 00:37:14.639
<v Speaker 4>asked us, Hey, what do y'all do?

669
00:37:14.679 --> 00:37:17.440
<v Speaker 3>And you know, and we're like, hey, none of your business.

670
00:37:20.599 --> 00:37:23.079
<v Speaker 4>So that was probably the because I told Steve and

671
00:37:23.159 --> 00:37:26.800
<v Speaker 4>I said, Man, I go, it's like, Matt, it's taking

672
00:37:26.840 --> 00:37:29.719
<v Speaker 4>me months, like in certain counties to get some kind

673
00:37:29.760 --> 00:37:32.840
<v Speaker 4>of reaction, like some kind of like tree knocks or

674
00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:36.119
<v Speaker 4>yells or eyeshine, it's taking me months to get it.

675
00:37:36.159 --> 00:37:39.199
<v Speaker 4>And I took Steven out despite that second or third time,

676
00:37:39.280 --> 00:37:42.159
<v Speaker 4>and he gets all three, all three at the same

677
00:37:42.199 --> 00:37:44.480
<v Speaker 4>I go, Man, you better be lucky because we don't

678
00:37:44.480 --> 00:37:47.800
<v Speaker 4>normally get that. Yeah, So I thought it was interesting,

679
00:37:47.880 --> 00:37:50.559
<v Speaker 4>and uh, it's one of those one of those deals.

680
00:37:52.079 --> 00:37:54.960
<v Speaker 5>And then after that, Uh, I guess you could say

681
00:37:55.000 --> 00:37:57.559
<v Speaker 5>I was marked because we went to Concho. I guess

682
00:37:57.559 --> 00:37:59.679
<v Speaker 5>after that, and then you did a yell there and

683
00:37:59.719 --> 00:38:02.719
<v Speaker 5>then we got a callback yeah on that one called

684
00:38:02.719 --> 00:38:05.760
<v Speaker 5>sweet A again. But the people that were with were

685
00:38:05.880 --> 00:38:08.119
<v Speaker 5>very terrified and we had to leave. Yeah.

686
00:38:08.920 --> 00:38:11.960
<v Speaker 3>I guarantee you if we stayed right there, we would

687
00:38:12.000 --> 00:38:14.480
<v Speaker 3>have got more. Yes, yeah, we'd have got we'd have

688
00:38:14.519 --> 00:38:15.000
<v Speaker 3>more stuff.

689
00:38:15.039 --> 00:38:16.760
<v Speaker 4>And I guess you could kind of say, Matt, that

690
00:38:16.960 --> 00:38:19.480
<v Speaker 4>Steven's my lucky charm whenever we got.

691
00:38:21.199 --> 00:38:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Let me ask you something about that, because I just

692
00:38:24.000 --> 00:38:25.840
<v Speaker 1>talked about this recently on here.

693
00:38:26.719 --> 00:38:29.639
<v Speaker 2>Bigfoot calls used to not be a thing.

694
00:38:31.800 --> 00:38:36.039
<v Speaker 1>Like people didn't think that it was possible to elicit

695
00:38:36.119 --> 00:38:38.880
<v Speaker 1>a response from doing vocalizations and everything.

696
00:38:39.320 --> 00:38:40.719
<v Speaker 2>Why were you doing calls?

697
00:38:40.880 --> 00:38:40.960
<v Speaker 3>Like?

698
00:38:41.000 --> 00:38:42.119
<v Speaker 2>Where did you learn about that?

699
00:38:44.199 --> 00:38:47.760
<v Speaker 4>Uh? I think I got it from from Luke. Luke

700
00:38:47.840 --> 00:38:50.800
<v Speaker 4>Gross he was he was really good at doing calls,

701
00:38:50.960 --> 00:38:55.519
<v Speaker 4>and he you know, he kind of kind of thought

702
00:38:55.599 --> 00:38:59.639
<v Speaker 4>that it almost I almost equate it to like paranormal

703
00:38:59.679 --> 00:39:04.360
<v Speaker 4>stuff whenever you you kind of prompt a ghost or

704
00:39:04.719 --> 00:39:08.960
<v Speaker 4>entity to to respond to you. And so he kind

705
00:39:08.960 --> 00:39:10.960
<v Speaker 4>of he kind of felt like it was he kind

706
00:39:10.960 --> 00:39:14.719
<v Speaker 4>of felt like the the bigfoot in I think Lamar County,

707
00:39:14.719 --> 00:39:18.719
<v Speaker 4>in Delta County, Hopkins County, and Texas was they were

708
00:39:18.800 --> 00:39:23.000
<v Speaker 4>very aggressive for some reason, and he felt by doing

709
00:39:23.039 --> 00:39:26.840
<v Speaker 4>a call that it would it would invoke something to

710
00:39:26.880 --> 00:39:28.760
<v Speaker 4>come check out what was in the area.

711
00:39:28.960 --> 00:39:31.920
<v Speaker 3>So that's that's where I got it from.

712
00:39:31.559 --> 00:39:34.519
<v Speaker 4>Because he said that these bigfoots in these areas were

713
00:39:34.639 --> 00:39:35.559
<v Speaker 4>very very aggressive.

714
00:39:36.159 --> 00:39:37.840
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, he would rent of the cage. Yeah.

715
00:39:37.960 --> 00:39:43.719
<v Speaker 1>You know, like I just remember, you know, call blasting. Uh,

716
00:39:44.239 --> 00:39:48.960
<v Speaker 1>the BFRO was doing that specifically with the Ohio Howe recording,

717
00:39:49.679 --> 00:39:53.000
<v Speaker 1>but people weren't really doing calls until later on. And

718
00:39:53.039 --> 00:39:56.119
<v Speaker 1>now it's like become so normal, you know, It's like

719
00:39:56.679 --> 00:39:58.400
<v Speaker 1>going out there and doing wood knocks now.

720
00:39:59.599 --> 00:40:03.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I thought that was just the normal thing to do. Yeah.

721
00:40:03.159 --> 00:40:04.880
<v Speaker 5>I never really thought of like where where did we

722
00:40:04.920 --> 00:40:06.880
<v Speaker 5>get this from? I just know that you got it

723
00:40:06.920 --> 00:40:09.440
<v Speaker 5>from Luke because Luke started doing it. I think when

724
00:40:09.440 --> 00:40:12.719
<v Speaker 5>we were there, Luke was the one that started the hell.

725
00:40:12.960 --> 00:40:14.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, and then you did your.

726
00:40:14.320 --> 00:40:15.880
<v Speaker 5>The tree knock and you got like the I remember

727
00:40:15.880 --> 00:40:18.400
<v Speaker 5>you picking up a big stick, yeah, and then you

728
00:40:18.440 --> 00:40:20.000
<v Speaker 5>like you slammed it three times, and I think the

729
00:40:20.000 --> 00:40:21.840
<v Speaker 5>third time it broke, Well, I had I had a

730
00:40:21.840 --> 00:40:24.519
<v Speaker 5>baton with me too. I don't think you used a baton.

731
00:40:24.719 --> 00:40:26.960
<v Speaker 5>I think he used a stick. And because I remember

732
00:40:27.000 --> 00:40:28.679
<v Speaker 5>you breaking it, you're like, oh, and then Luke goes

733
00:40:28.719 --> 00:40:33.519
<v Speaker 5>that nice one, Bob, So uh yeah, I.

734
00:40:33.440 --> 00:40:35.920
<v Speaker 3>Think that's what the whole thing. I think you got

735
00:40:35.920 --> 00:40:36.360
<v Speaker 3>it from Luke.

736
00:40:37.480 --> 00:40:41.719
<v Speaker 1>I just really think that bigfoot calls originated, like doing

737
00:40:41.800 --> 00:40:43.400
<v Speaker 1>calls out in the field like that. I think they

738
00:40:43.440 --> 00:40:44.719
<v Speaker 1>originated here in the South.

739
00:40:45.480 --> 00:40:46.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

740
00:40:46.239 --> 00:40:48.800
<v Speaker 4>I don't think I ever like in the early years whenever,

741
00:40:49.039 --> 00:40:51.440
<v Speaker 4>because you and I got started with bigfoot almost at

742
00:40:51.559 --> 00:40:54.840
<v Speaker 4>the exact same time, right, yeah, late late late nineties,

743
00:40:54.960 --> 00:40:57.480
<v Speaker 4>early two thousands, and that at that time I was

744
00:40:57.519 --> 00:41:01.800
<v Speaker 4>I was communicating with Eric Altman in the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society,

745
00:41:02.239 --> 00:41:04.159
<v Speaker 4>and I was sharing what I was doing with them,

746
00:41:04.199 --> 00:41:06.199
<v Speaker 4>and they were sharing what they were doing, and they

747
00:41:06.280 --> 00:41:09.159
<v Speaker 4>never said anything about bigfoot calls or tree n OCKX

748
00:41:09.239 --> 00:41:12.800
<v Speaker 4>or anything like that. They were talking about like I think, uh,

749
00:41:14.039 --> 00:41:18.280
<v Speaker 4>like uh, wood wood they were finding like woodstacks of

750
00:41:18.440 --> 00:41:23.360
<v Speaker 4>just like piles of wood or or just like some

751
00:41:23.480 --> 00:41:27.840
<v Speaker 4>kind of picture graphs or something like that. So but

752
00:41:28.599 --> 00:41:30.519
<v Speaker 4>I you know, I think you're right on that though.

753
00:41:31.440 --> 00:41:36.920
<v Speaker 1>So Jeremiah asked. Jeremiah of Bigfoot Society Podcast wants to

754
00:41:36.960 --> 00:41:39.039
<v Speaker 1>know what are the top three interviews you've done on

755
00:41:39.079 --> 00:41:44.360
<v Speaker 1>your show that you hope to be remembered for. I

756
00:41:44.400 --> 00:41:45.880
<v Speaker 1>hope I haven't done them yet.

757
00:41:46.920 --> 00:41:48.800
<v Speaker 4>That's awesome. That's actually a good answer.

758
00:41:51.440 --> 00:41:53.920
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there's there's like some that definitely stand out,

759
00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:57.719
<v Speaker 1>you know, that I've enjoyed personally. Uh, there's some that

760
00:41:57.760 --> 00:42:01.320
<v Speaker 1>I've done that I feel are really that I hope

761
00:42:01.360 --> 00:42:05.400
<v Speaker 1>people got everything out of it that they could on

762
00:42:05.480 --> 00:42:09.800
<v Speaker 1>both sides for the guest and the listener. But yeah, man,

763
00:42:10.000 --> 00:42:12.599
<v Speaker 1>I'm not done, you know. I hope my best is

764
00:42:12.679 --> 00:42:14.440
<v Speaker 1>yet to come. So that's kind of what I'm going

765
00:42:14.440 --> 00:42:14.880
<v Speaker 1>with on that.

766
00:42:16.039 --> 00:42:18.880
<v Speaker 3>Can I can I say which ones I like the most? Sure?

767
00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:21.840
<v Speaker 4>The ones that stand out to me. This is a

768
00:42:21.920 --> 00:42:24.719
<v Speaker 4>recent one that you did of the gentleman that was

769
00:42:25.119 --> 00:42:27.840
<v Speaker 4>he was military and he was taking he was taking

770
00:42:27.880 --> 00:42:31.719
<v Speaker 4>his buddy out. This was in the Pacific Northwest and

771
00:42:31.760 --> 00:42:35.039
<v Speaker 4>he got shadowed out by by two Bigfoot, know three

772
00:42:35.159 --> 00:42:39.199
<v Speaker 4>three Bigfoot and so to me and he was going

773
00:42:39.239 --> 00:42:41.679
<v Speaker 4>over some of the some of the things he's done,

774
00:42:42.519 --> 00:42:45.280
<v Speaker 4>some of the you know, he's he's done some deeds,

775
00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:47.840
<v Speaker 4>and you know, he's been in some pretty rough spatch

776
00:42:47.960 --> 00:42:51.599
<v Speaker 4>you know, patches and places in the world, and so

777
00:42:51.719 --> 00:42:54.679
<v Speaker 4>he's seen lots of stuff and this thing really really

778
00:42:54.719 --> 00:42:58.679
<v Speaker 4>scared him. And for him to be this scared and

779
00:42:58.760 --> 00:43:00.960
<v Speaker 4>to get shadowed out up an area and him not

780
00:43:01.079 --> 00:43:03.800
<v Speaker 4>want to go back out to go hunting again, man,

781
00:43:03.840 --> 00:43:09.000
<v Speaker 4>that really really set it's it's you know, it's stuck.

782
00:43:09.079 --> 00:43:10.840
<v Speaker 4>It's it's it's stuck with me pretty good.

783
00:43:11.039 --> 00:43:17.360
<v Speaker 1>So something else about him in particular is that, you know,

784
00:43:17.480 --> 00:43:21.079
<v Speaker 1>sometimes we'll vet guests that come on our shows, you know,

785
00:43:21.280 --> 00:43:23.039
<v Speaker 1>we'll have a phone call with them and talk to

786
00:43:23.079 --> 00:43:26.280
<v Speaker 1>them and everything. He vetted me, he wanted to tell

787
00:43:26.320 --> 00:43:30.039
<v Speaker 1>it to me and see who I was and fill

788
00:43:30.079 --> 00:43:32.000
<v Speaker 1>me out before he came on the show to talk

789
00:43:32.039 --> 00:43:34.440
<v Speaker 1>about it, because he didn't want to talk about it.

790
00:43:34.679 --> 00:43:39.199
<v Speaker 1>He was actually a guest on the Sailor Sasquatch YouTube channel.

791
00:43:40.239 --> 00:43:46.119
<v Speaker 1>They they found him and his wife, yeah, and they

792
00:43:46.400 --> 00:43:49.880
<v Speaker 1>kind of set up the introduction between us or whatever.

793
00:43:51.239 --> 00:43:54.519
<v Speaker 1>And that's the only reason he did the show was

794
00:43:54.639 --> 00:43:56.679
<v Speaker 1>just because he had met them and knew that they

795
00:43:56.679 --> 00:43:59.199
<v Speaker 1>were good people and they were vouching for me and everything.

796
00:43:59.280 --> 00:44:01.239
<v Speaker 1>And that's the only and he had even talked to me,

797
00:44:02.320 --> 00:44:07.320
<v Speaker 1>and yeah, he he doesn't want to really be put

798
00:44:07.360 --> 00:44:10.760
<v Speaker 1>out there or anything. You know, he's not interested in

799
00:44:10.760 --> 00:44:14.519
<v Speaker 1>any sort of notoriety or fame or anything with his story.

800
00:44:14.880 --> 00:44:18.199
<v Speaker 1>And another thing that stood out about that particular part

801
00:44:18.239 --> 00:44:23.280
<v Speaker 1>of it, if you were to talk to me long

802
00:44:23.360 --> 00:44:26.079
<v Speaker 1>enough about bigfoot research and things that I believe I

803
00:44:26.199 --> 00:44:31.239
<v Speaker 1>know about these things, I would talk about how I

804
00:44:31.280 --> 00:44:35.480
<v Speaker 1>think that they oftentime travel in threes and will use

805
00:44:35.719 --> 00:44:41.719
<v Speaker 1>triangulation in hunting and with people. And he brought that

806
00:44:41.840 --> 00:44:44.239
<v Speaker 1>up and that's not like something that's just you're not

807
00:44:44.280 --> 00:44:47.519
<v Speaker 1>going to get that from watching Expedition Bigfoot, you know.

808
00:44:47.800 --> 00:44:53.079
<v Speaker 4>Right, Yeah, and you could you could actually hear you know,

809
00:44:53.159 --> 00:44:55.760
<v Speaker 4>his tone whenever he was talking about it. There's certain

810
00:44:56.280 --> 00:44:58.679
<v Speaker 4>parts of his story that he would stop, you know,

811
00:44:59.599 --> 00:45:04.519
<v Speaker 4>and and pause, and you can that's that's whenever whenever

812
00:45:04.559 --> 00:45:07.880
<v Speaker 4>you talk to someone who actually seen a bigfoot, that's

813
00:45:07.880 --> 00:45:10.239
<v Speaker 4>when you can tell, Okay, this is real. This guy

814
00:45:10.280 --> 00:45:13.159
<v Speaker 4>didn't make it up. You know he doesn't. There's no

815
00:45:13.320 --> 00:45:15.760
<v Speaker 4>there's no gain to it. And you know he tells

816
00:45:15.800 --> 00:45:19.039
<v Speaker 4>the story because you know, you were a good source.

817
00:45:19.079 --> 00:45:22.119
<v Speaker 3>And I think he's not telling that story again, right.

818
00:45:22.440 --> 00:45:23.400
<v Speaker 2>No, I don't think so.

819
00:45:23.519 --> 00:45:25.639
<v Speaker 1>I mean he said he wasn't going to, but I

820
00:45:25.679 --> 00:45:27.880
<v Speaker 1>mean he can obviously change his mind in the future.

821
00:45:27.920 --> 00:45:32.239
<v Speaker 1>But yeah, I felt very honored and privileged for him

822
00:45:32.280 --> 00:45:34.000
<v Speaker 1>to come on the show and share a story with me.

823
00:45:36.119 --> 00:45:37.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that was a good one.

824
00:45:37.400 --> 00:45:41.199
<v Speaker 4>One of the other ones that that that always it's

825
00:45:41.239 --> 00:45:44.159
<v Speaker 4>the last seed memory, was the one in Mexico.

826
00:45:44.880 --> 00:45:48.079
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, that one, that one.

827
00:45:48.119 --> 00:45:49.639
<v Speaker 4>I think I listened to that one like three or

828
00:45:49.639 --> 00:45:54.679
<v Speaker 4>four times, and just her story in Mexico.

829
00:45:55.960 --> 00:45:59.840
<v Speaker 3>So so Steve and I were just intrigued with that one.

830
00:46:00.559 --> 00:46:01.280
<v Speaker 2>Why is that.

831
00:46:02.920 --> 00:46:07.039
<v Speaker 4>Just because you know, you you hear more in Mexico

832
00:46:07.360 --> 00:46:11.880
<v Speaker 4>about bigfoots, but you never I've never heard of a story. Yeah,

833
00:46:12.039 --> 00:46:14.960
<v Speaker 4>to hear that story, to have some kind of you know,

834
00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:19.519
<v Speaker 4>you know, validation for it. It just to me, this

835
00:46:20.079 --> 00:46:22.639
<v Speaker 4>is what has been waiting for for a story like

836
00:46:22.639 --> 00:46:23.239
<v Speaker 4>in Mexico.

837
00:46:24.039 --> 00:46:28.920
<v Speaker 1>To me, it's just crazy because like, okay, so two

838
00:46:28.960 --> 00:46:34.320
<v Speaker 1>girls going on vacation in Mexico, you know, just being free,

839
00:46:34.440 --> 00:46:36.400
<v Speaker 1>living life. You don't expect to come home with a

840
00:46:36.400 --> 00:46:37.119
<v Speaker 1>bigfoot story.

841
00:46:38.119 --> 00:46:40.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, a little alone from Mexico.

842
00:46:40.599 --> 00:46:42.480
<v Speaker 1>I mean, to me, that was crazy I had never

843
00:46:42.559 --> 00:46:45.320
<v Speaker 1>talked to anybody with a bigfoot sighting in Mexico.

844
00:46:46.760 --> 00:46:48.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, same here.

845
00:46:48.400 --> 00:46:54.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I didn't think, like, forested land is not something

846
00:46:54.239 --> 00:46:58.679
<v Speaker 1>that comes to mind whenever I think of Mexico. I know,

847
00:46:58.760 --> 00:47:02.159
<v Speaker 1>they definitely, especially in some of the coastal regions, have

848
00:47:02.320 --> 00:47:05.119
<v Speaker 1>like jungle and stuff like that, but it wasn't anything.

849
00:47:05.199 --> 00:47:07.400
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, I just never thought about it.

850
00:47:07.440 --> 00:47:07.639
<v Speaker 2>Really.

851
00:47:07.719 --> 00:47:12.280
<v Speaker 1>I never even connected bigfoot to Mexico. And so whenever

852
00:47:12.320 --> 00:47:16.360
<v Speaker 1>she told me, I was like what. And she wanted

853
00:47:16.400 --> 00:47:20.239
<v Speaker 1>to be pretty private about the location, but she told

854
00:47:20.280 --> 00:47:23.039
<v Speaker 1>me the location off air and everything, and you know,

855
00:47:23.199 --> 00:47:26.639
<v Speaker 1>I google earthed it and it's just like, wow, this

856
00:47:26.719 --> 00:47:31.000
<v Speaker 1>looks like you know, any place in like.

857
00:47:30.960 --> 00:47:32.719
<v Speaker 2>The Pacific Northwest. It was crazy.

858
00:47:32.880 --> 00:47:35.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, not quite the same elevation, but just like the terrain.

859
00:47:36.159 --> 00:47:40.039
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there's no people, it's just all forest land.

860
00:47:41.880 --> 00:47:44.079
<v Speaker 4>Do you think and I'm just asking a question here,

861
00:47:44.119 --> 00:47:46.360
<v Speaker 4>do you think this Bigfoot was on vacation?

862
00:47:47.239 --> 00:47:50.079
<v Speaker 1>I mean maybe so, you know, maybe he was down

863
00:47:50.119 --> 00:47:52.679
<v Speaker 1>there sipping some margeritas, having some authentic coco.

864
00:47:53.159 --> 00:47:56.679
<v Speaker 3>Sorry, this is the same signing where they were jamming.

865
00:47:56.719 --> 00:47:57.639
<v Speaker 3>That's in you right.

866
00:47:57.960 --> 00:48:01.199
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, so maybe the big wasn't treated by the music.

867
00:48:01.360 --> 00:48:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it could have been a combination of things.

868
00:48:03.760 --> 00:48:06.519
<v Speaker 1>So it was just like another classic roadside siding. You know,

869
00:48:06.920 --> 00:48:10.119
<v Speaker 1>if you do this long enough, bigfoot are typically seen

870
00:48:11.320 --> 00:48:13.119
<v Speaker 1>whenever you have a roadside signing like that or a

871
00:48:13.239 --> 00:48:14.639
<v Speaker 1>road crossing, it's usually at.

872
00:48:14.480 --> 00:48:16.800
<v Speaker 2>A curve in the road or where the road.

873
00:48:16.639 --> 00:48:19.559
<v Speaker 1>Like goes down between two hills or something where it

874
00:48:19.639 --> 00:48:24.000
<v Speaker 1>seems like possibly their senses are obscured for a minute.

875
00:48:24.800 --> 00:48:27.920
<v Speaker 1>And this was that exact scenario. I mean they were

876
00:48:27.960 --> 00:48:31.480
<v Speaker 1>coming around like this sharp curve and this thing was

877
00:48:31.519 --> 00:48:34.280
<v Speaker 1>just standing there, yeah, doing the same thing. I've talked

878
00:48:34.280 --> 00:48:37.519
<v Speaker 1>to witnesses in the Pacific Northwest on the show that

879
00:48:37.639 --> 00:48:41.039
<v Speaker 1>like had the same exact siding in an entirely different location,

880
00:48:41.199 --> 00:48:43.159
<v Speaker 1>but the same behavior everything.

881
00:48:44.719 --> 00:48:49.239
<v Speaker 4>I've interviewed somebody from Australia that had that same that

882
00:48:49.320 --> 00:48:53.639
<v Speaker 4>same stuff with Yawiy's so, but this this bigfoot took a.

883
00:48:53.599 --> 00:48:55.119
<v Speaker 3>Swing at the car. Yep.

884
00:48:55.519 --> 00:48:56.679
<v Speaker 2>So that's crazy.

885
00:48:56.960 --> 00:48:58.360
<v Speaker 3>That was that was interesting.

886
00:48:59.239 --> 00:49:01.800
<v Speaker 4>The third one I want to say that it's just

887
00:49:02.000 --> 00:49:03.760
<v Speaker 4>it's stuck in my mind. It was the one I

888
00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:05.719
<v Speaker 4>can't you know, forgive me if I don't remember the

889
00:49:05.800 --> 00:49:08.480
<v Speaker 4>number or the person's name, but it was the one

890
00:49:08.519 --> 00:49:12.639
<v Speaker 4>about the lady that saw a bigfoot, a younger bigfoot

891
00:49:12.679 --> 00:49:16.119
<v Speaker 4>in the creek bed. It was like a broken limb,

892
00:49:16.440 --> 00:49:19.079
<v Speaker 4>broken leg, or it had a compound fracture. It was

893
00:49:19.119 --> 00:49:23.800
<v Speaker 4>bleeding or something something. And uh, because I've never heard

894
00:49:23.800 --> 00:49:27.800
<v Speaker 4>of a story of her bigfoot, her bigfoot.

895
00:49:29.280 --> 00:49:35.360
<v Speaker 2>That's not it, Go ahead say it, just as.

896
00:49:35.239 --> 00:49:37.840
<v Speaker 4>The one where where the bigfoot jumped over the lady

897
00:49:38.519 --> 00:49:39.320
<v Speaker 4>and we called.

898
00:49:39.119 --> 00:49:40.119
<v Speaker 3>It a tea bag.

899
00:49:41.039 --> 00:49:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Yes, yeah, yeah, she definitely knew it was a mal.

900
00:49:47.000 --> 00:49:48.039
<v Speaker 3>I was building up to it.

901
00:49:48.119 --> 00:49:55.239
<v Speaker 5>Math Yeah, He's like, no, that's not it.

902
00:49:53.760 --> 00:49:57.199
<v Speaker 3>And he's gone, okay, sorry, But that.

903
00:49:57.119 --> 00:50:01.480
<v Speaker 1>Was another another classic bigfoot thing we hear. You have

904
00:50:01.599 --> 00:50:04.639
<v Speaker 1>to look at the psychological and social aspects to the

905
00:50:04.679 --> 00:50:09.480
<v Speaker 1>stories whenever it comes to the witnesses. And at the time,

906
00:50:09.639 --> 00:50:13.960
<v Speaker 1>she had like a toddler and her husband was like

907
00:50:14.079 --> 00:50:16.119
<v Speaker 1>going to work and they were living out of like

908
00:50:16.159 --> 00:50:20.119
<v Speaker 1>a small RV. They were trying to make ends meet,

909
00:50:20.440 --> 00:50:24.239
<v Speaker 1>and she was in a situation that was very high

910
00:50:24.320 --> 00:50:30.480
<v Speaker 1>stress and high emotion whenever that took place, Like, I

911
00:50:30.519 --> 00:50:33.960
<v Speaker 1>don't want to go into details or anything, but there

912
00:50:33.960 --> 00:50:37.679
<v Speaker 1>were some aspects to that story which ring true. With

913
00:50:37.800 --> 00:50:41.679
<v Speaker 1>other stories that we've heard over the years where bigfoot

914
00:50:41.719 --> 00:50:45.880
<v Speaker 1>sightings happen in situations where there's a person who is

915
00:50:45.960 --> 00:50:50.159
<v Speaker 1>in a vulnerable emotional state and upset at the time.

916
00:50:51.840 --> 00:50:53.360
<v Speaker 2>Kind of odd, kind of odd.

917
00:50:55.000 --> 00:50:59.079
<v Speaker 1>Jeremiah also asked, and I appreciate Jeremiah for asking this,

918
00:51:00.159 --> 00:51:02.920
<v Speaker 1>have you ever heard the mushroom Hunter bigfoot sound? It

919
00:51:03.000 --> 00:51:05.599
<v Speaker 1>sure is a haunting piece of audio. What are your

920
00:51:05.639 --> 00:51:12.039
<v Speaker 1>thoughts on its origins? Well, I'm so glad you asked. So,

921
00:51:12.119 --> 00:51:15.480
<v Speaker 1>there's this piece of video out there called the mushroom

922
00:51:15.559 --> 00:51:18.880
<v Speaker 1>Hunter video where this guy is out hunting mushrooms in

923
00:51:18.920 --> 00:51:20.920
<v Speaker 1>the woods and he hears.

924
00:51:20.639 --> 00:51:23.199
<v Speaker 3>This horrible scream, roar.

925
00:51:23.079 --> 00:51:27.559
<v Speaker 1>Howl sound, and I mean it's terrifying. And this piece

926
00:51:27.719 --> 00:51:31.000
<v Speaker 1>of video went viral. It's been featured on a couple

927
00:51:31.039 --> 00:51:35.440
<v Speaker 1>different television shows. It's racked up millions of views on

928
00:51:35.480 --> 00:51:38.760
<v Speaker 1>the Internet. And it is a hoax. And the reason

929
00:51:38.800 --> 00:51:41.480
<v Speaker 1>I know that it's a hoax is because I created

930
00:51:41.480 --> 00:51:44.800
<v Speaker 1>the audio on my computer myself. I don't mean I

931
00:51:44.880 --> 00:51:48.679
<v Speaker 1>duplicated it. I mean I created that audio back in

932
00:51:48.719 --> 00:51:53.599
<v Speaker 1>the early two thousands because I wanted something to be

933
00:51:53.679 --> 00:51:56.679
<v Speaker 1>able to put on the Internet for whenever people said

934
00:51:56.679 --> 00:51:58.920
<v Speaker 1>that they heard Bigfoot. I was like, okay, well compare

935
00:51:58.920 --> 00:52:01.039
<v Speaker 1>it to this, because this is something that I had

936
00:52:01.039 --> 00:52:03.519
<v Speaker 1>heard something similar to this and wasn't able to record

937
00:52:03.559 --> 00:52:05.840
<v Speaker 1>it at the time down in Texas, so I tried

938
00:52:05.880 --> 00:52:08.480
<v Speaker 1>to recreate it at home, and then I put it

939
00:52:08.519 --> 00:52:11.880
<v Speaker 1>on the Internet for other people to hear. Stan Courtney

940
00:52:11.880 --> 00:52:16.119
<v Speaker 1>posted on his website and apparently at some point in

941
00:52:16.159 --> 00:52:20.840
<v Speaker 1>time someone on the internet grabbed it and since then

942
00:52:21.320 --> 00:52:25.480
<v Speaker 1>it gets used for nefarious purposes over and over and over,

943
00:52:26.440 --> 00:52:29.480
<v Speaker 1>several times a year. I feel like I'm running around

944
00:52:29.559 --> 00:52:33.519
<v Speaker 1>doing damage control about this piece of audio. It pops

945
00:52:33.599 --> 00:52:37.159
<v Speaker 1>up all the time. There's even a person who made

946
00:52:37.159 --> 00:52:41.920
<v Speaker 1>a YouTube video completely unrelated to Bigfoot. It's like the

947
00:52:42.000 --> 00:52:49.079
<v Speaker 1>whole claymation style, like the old sindbad movies, you know,

948
00:52:49.199 --> 00:52:52.880
<v Speaker 1>like the claymation monsters. It's two dinosaurs fighting, you know,

949
00:52:52.960 --> 00:52:55.559
<v Speaker 1>some old piece of film footage that was like made

950
00:52:55.639 --> 00:52:58.360
<v Speaker 1>in the nineteen fifties, and they put that sound on

951
00:52:58.400 --> 00:53:03.719
<v Speaker 1>there as the audio for the dinosaurs fighting. Yeah, it

952
00:53:03.800 --> 00:53:05.760
<v Speaker 1>doesn't even make sense. I mean, it's just like, you know,

953
00:53:05.960 --> 00:53:10.000
<v Speaker 1>I don't really care about that, But just this past

954
00:53:10.039 --> 00:53:12.199
<v Speaker 1>month I saw it pop up on a TikTok video

955
00:53:12.719 --> 00:53:15.559
<v Speaker 1>where somebody was using it on their TikTok video saying

956
00:53:15.559 --> 00:53:18.719
<v Speaker 1>that it was something that they had recorded. There's a

957
00:53:18.800 --> 00:53:21.480
<v Speaker 1>video of a bunch of little dogs I believe they're

958
00:53:21.519 --> 00:53:23.920
<v Speaker 1>Frenchies or something, or pugs or something that go running

959
00:53:23.960 --> 00:53:26.599
<v Speaker 1>towards the woods because they hear this crazy roard. That's

960
00:53:26.639 --> 00:53:29.480
<v Speaker 1>the sound like that video. Like it's gone viral too.

961
00:53:30.159 --> 00:53:31.639
<v Speaker 1>It gets used all the time.

962
00:53:33.320 --> 00:53:37.719
<v Speaker 4>So I can actually say you who make you famous? Yeah?

963
00:53:38.159 --> 00:53:41.800
<v Speaker 1>I never got viral off of that. I never went

964
00:53:41.920 --> 00:53:45.480
<v Speaker 1>viral from making that sound. I think right now there's

965
00:53:45.480 --> 00:53:48.199
<v Speaker 1>a clip of it actually on like History Channel's official

966
00:53:48.280 --> 00:53:48.920
<v Speaker 1>YouTube page.

967
00:53:49.920 --> 00:53:52.159
<v Speaker 3>Wow, they need to pay you, dude.

968
00:53:52.280 --> 00:53:53.800
<v Speaker 2>Yep, they're not gonna do that.

969
00:53:54.920 --> 00:53:57.920
<v Speaker 1>Jody Foster Chisholm, she was a guest on the show,

970
00:53:58.039 --> 00:54:00.079
<v Speaker 1>really enjoyed talking to her. She wants to know the

971
00:54:00.119 --> 00:54:03.519
<v Speaker 1>most common area slash place in Oklahoma for Bigfoot sightings

972
00:54:04.039 --> 00:54:08.159
<v Speaker 1>in the year twenty twenty four. Well, now that gets tricky,

973
00:54:08.199 --> 00:54:08.599
<v Speaker 1>doesn't it.

974
00:54:09.039 --> 00:54:10.159
<v Speaker 3>Which area? There's a lot of area?

975
00:54:10.280 --> 00:54:15.480
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, twenty twenty four, there is definitely some activity around

976
00:54:15.559 --> 00:54:17.920
<v Speaker 1>the Fort Gibson Lake area.

977
00:54:18.599 --> 00:54:20.760
<v Speaker 2>I believe I was not.

978
00:54:20.800 --> 00:54:24.320
<v Speaker 1>Involved in any of those investigations obviously, but I did

979
00:54:24.360 --> 00:54:26.360
<v Speaker 1>hear a few things.

980
00:54:27.239 --> 00:54:27.679
<v Speaker 2>Obviously.

981
00:54:27.719 --> 00:54:32.760
<v Speaker 1>You have southeastern Oklahoma, you know, the typical area. It's

982
00:54:32.840 --> 00:54:37.000
<v Speaker 1>always high in bigfoot activity every year, let alone twenty

983
00:54:37.000 --> 00:54:41.960
<v Speaker 1>twenty four, and there's still bigfoot stuff going around. And

984
00:54:42.400 --> 00:54:45.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, kind of the south central area of Oklahoma,

985
00:54:46.679 --> 00:54:51.400
<v Speaker 1>out past Oklahoma City and everything. It stays pretty constant

986
00:54:51.920 --> 00:54:53.199
<v Speaker 1>out in that area as well.

987
00:54:55.440 --> 00:54:56.159
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I hear.

988
00:54:56.079 --> 00:55:00.559
<v Speaker 1>Things all the time, the lot in area, yep, lots

989
00:55:00.599 --> 00:55:05.840
<v Speaker 1>of stuff around Mount Scott. There's some projects in the

990
00:55:05.840 --> 00:55:08.360
<v Speaker 1>work that I can't discuss because they don't involve me

991
00:55:08.480 --> 00:55:11.840
<v Speaker 1>or anything, so I don't want to, you know, do

992
00:55:11.920 --> 00:55:14.599
<v Speaker 1>any of that. But yeah, there's there's stuff coming out

993
00:55:15.280 --> 00:55:20.639
<v Speaker 1>in the future about Oklahoma that might enlighten a lot

994
00:55:20.639 --> 00:55:22.679
<v Speaker 1>of people on some of the activity going on here.

995
00:55:23.920 --> 00:55:26.119
<v Speaker 4>People don't know that there's a lot of activity in

996
00:55:26.119 --> 00:55:29.800
<v Speaker 4>that state, and I would I would put your state

997
00:55:29.880 --> 00:55:32.440
<v Speaker 4>up against any other state because there's probably a lot

998
00:55:32.480 --> 00:55:35.880
<v Speaker 4>of them that don't get reported because there's so much

999
00:55:35.920 --> 00:55:38.119
<v Speaker 4>activity at activity in that whole state.

1000
00:55:39.199 --> 00:55:43.559
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there's stuff going on. A guy that's supposed

1001
00:55:43.559 --> 00:55:45.440
<v Speaker 1>to come on and do a show with me in

1002
00:55:45.480 --> 00:55:50.239
<v Speaker 1>the near future told me some stories that are going

1003
00:55:50.320 --> 00:55:55.599
<v Speaker 1>to be a major deal. Yeah, I've already I've already

1004
00:55:55.599 --> 00:55:58.199
<v Speaker 1>asked him if I can, you know, pass his information

1005
00:55:58.280 --> 00:56:03.760
<v Speaker 1>along to some researchers. I know, yeah, so again, hopefully

1006
00:56:04.000 --> 00:56:05.599
<v Speaker 1>I'll be able to get him on here, he said,

1007
00:56:05.559 --> 00:56:07.159
<v Speaker 1>he wud come on. I've talked to him on the phone,

1008
00:56:07.360 --> 00:56:10.599
<v Speaker 1>you know, I know what he's experienced and everything, and

1009
00:56:11.599 --> 00:56:13.400
<v Speaker 1>I'm definitely excited about.

1010
00:56:13.159 --> 00:56:13.679
<v Speaker 2>Having him on.

1011
00:56:14.440 --> 00:56:18.239
<v Speaker 1>It's some crazy stuff and it's an area that I

1012
00:56:18.320 --> 00:56:20.719
<v Speaker 1>know very well. I know some other people that know

1013
00:56:20.760 --> 00:56:23.559
<v Speaker 1>this area very well. If this kind of stuff's going

1014
00:56:23.599 --> 00:56:29.519
<v Speaker 1>on there, man, oh man, how's that exciting? Yeah? Yeah,

1015
00:56:30.039 --> 00:56:34.639
<v Speaker 1>subscribe and follow the podcast to hear about it. James Barker,

1016
00:56:35.199 --> 00:56:37.920
<v Speaker 1>here's a fun one. Hypothetically you stumble on a Sasquatch

1017
00:56:37.960 --> 00:56:41.920
<v Speaker 1>body miles in the woods, freshly dead. What is your plan,

1018
00:56:42.719 --> 00:56:43.280
<v Speaker 1>Steven go.

1019
00:56:43.719 --> 00:56:46.880
<v Speaker 5>First of all, I would because if I'm coming across

1020
00:56:46.880 --> 00:56:50.280
<v Speaker 5>a dead body, bigfoot body, especially a bigfoot body, I would.

1021
00:56:50.119 --> 00:56:51.760
<v Speaker 3>Check the area to see if there's any other bigfoot

1022
00:56:51.800 --> 00:56:52.199
<v Speaker 3>watching me.

1023
00:56:53.079 --> 00:56:57.519
<v Speaker 5>They're probably going to be Yeah, and I'm gonna say

1024
00:56:57.519 --> 00:57:00.079
<v Speaker 5>it out loud, like, hey, I didn't do it.

1025
00:57:00.119 --> 00:57:00.559
<v Speaker 3>Wasn't that me?

1026
00:57:01.280 --> 00:57:05.039
<v Speaker 5>I came, I came across this, and then I would

1027
00:57:05.079 --> 00:57:09.239
<v Speaker 5>call Bigfoot Club and Bigfoot cross Roads and be like, hey, man,

1028
00:57:09.280 --> 00:57:12.280
<v Speaker 5>I asked someone, Well, first of all, anywhere, if I'm

1029
00:57:12.280 --> 00:57:16.519
<v Speaker 5>gonna be out in the woods, Robert's gonna be with me. Yeah,

1030
00:57:16.679 --> 00:57:19.400
<v Speaker 5>I'm sorry, that's just how it is. If I'm by

1031
00:57:19.480 --> 00:57:23.280
<v Speaker 5>myself in the woods, something's wrong. Yeah, Uh so Robert's

1032
00:57:23.280 --> 00:57:25.559
<v Speaker 5>gonna be with me. So we're probably gonna call you, Matt,

1033
00:57:25.960 --> 00:57:28.159
<v Speaker 5>first of all. And then also we're gonna we're gonna

1034
00:57:28.159 --> 00:57:34.320
<v Speaker 5>take video too, yeah, of the area, pictures, all that stuff,

1035
00:57:34.760 --> 00:57:38.480
<v Speaker 5>and uh yeah at this point, like you don't, don't,

1036
00:57:38.480 --> 00:57:40.559
<v Speaker 5>I don't even I'm afraid to call the authorities on.

1037
00:57:40.599 --> 00:57:44.639
<v Speaker 3>That, yuse Uh I think we would, we would just

1038
00:57:44.639 --> 00:57:46.480
<v Speaker 3>call you, Matt. What would you do?

1039
00:57:46.920 --> 00:57:49.840
<v Speaker 1>I mean, I think the best course of action is

1040
00:57:49.960 --> 00:57:53.440
<v Speaker 1>to uh take as much video as possible.

1041
00:57:54.400 --> 00:57:54.800
<v Speaker 3>Mm hmm.

1042
00:57:55.480 --> 00:57:59.519
<v Speaker 1>Obviously safety as a concern. We're assuming that in this

1043
00:57:59.599 --> 00:58:03.519
<v Speaker 1>situation you're not surrounded by other Bigfoot trying to retrieve

1044
00:58:03.559 --> 00:58:06.760
<v Speaker 1>the body and haul it off or get you away

1045
00:58:06.800 --> 00:58:10.960
<v Speaker 1>from it. So in that scenario, take as much video

1046
00:58:10.960 --> 00:58:15.880
<v Speaker 1>as possible. And then if you have any sort of

1047
00:58:15.960 --> 00:58:21.760
<v Speaker 1>device that can cut. I'm taking fingers with me toes

1048
00:58:21.800 --> 00:58:24.199
<v Speaker 1>whatever I can get. I'm not going to try to

1049
00:58:24.239 --> 00:58:26.639
<v Speaker 1>haul out an entire body, and I'm not going to

1050
00:58:26.719 --> 00:58:29.119
<v Speaker 1>try to chance that the body will still be there

1051
00:58:29.159 --> 00:58:32.239
<v Speaker 1>the next time anybody comes back. So I'm going to

1052
00:58:32.280 --> 00:58:35.000
<v Speaker 1>be cutting off something that I can take back with me,

1053
00:58:35.480 --> 00:58:37.639
<v Speaker 1>and I'm going to video me cutting it off. I'm

1054
00:58:37.639 --> 00:58:40.719
<v Speaker 1>going to be videoing the entire time. After I'm done

1055
00:58:40.760 --> 00:58:43.760
<v Speaker 1>with the video, and after I've done all that, I'm

1056
00:58:43.800 --> 00:58:47.639
<v Speaker 1>on the phone. I'm calling people that I trust and

1057
00:58:47.679 --> 00:58:50.199
<v Speaker 1>telling them what I just found, where I found it at,

1058
00:58:50.199 --> 00:58:53.599
<v Speaker 1>and everything else. And then I'm uploading all that stuff

1059
00:58:54.079 --> 00:58:58.360
<v Speaker 1>onto the Internet as quickly as possible, and once it's

1060
00:58:58.400 --> 00:59:02.039
<v Speaker 1>in cyberspace, it should be spread around fast enough that

1061
00:59:02.079 --> 00:59:03.559
<v Speaker 1>they can't make it disappear.

1062
00:59:04.199 --> 00:59:05.920
<v Speaker 5>I feel like you would take a finger and be like, well,

1063
00:59:05.960 --> 00:59:08.440
<v Speaker 5>that's that's probably from something else, and they would try

1064
00:59:08.480 --> 00:59:09.679
<v Speaker 5>to like discredit it.

1065
00:59:09.920 --> 00:59:12.039
<v Speaker 3>Oh, no, there's a video of me cutting the finger.

1066
00:59:12.400 --> 00:59:15.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, there's video. There's you know, it's on the internet.

1067
00:59:15.280 --> 00:59:18.360
<v Speaker 1>It's on YouTube. Everybody's got a copy of it. Nobody

1068
00:59:18.360 --> 00:59:20.840
<v Speaker 1>says you have to deal with the United States. We

1069
00:59:21.000 --> 00:59:23.639
<v Speaker 1>have the internet now, so you can like reach out

1070
00:59:23.679 --> 00:59:26.719
<v Speaker 1>to whoever you want to, like, think about people that

1071
00:59:26.920 --> 00:59:28.400
<v Speaker 1>want to cash in on it, that have a lot

1072
00:59:28.440 --> 00:59:30.119
<v Speaker 1>of money, that's who you want to call.

1073
00:59:31.400 --> 00:59:33.519
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think I think if it were me, like

1074
00:59:33.559 --> 00:59:36.280
<v Speaker 4>the old Robert, would probably do the same thing you

1075
00:59:36.280 --> 00:59:39.400
<v Speaker 4>guys are doing. You know, take pick, take video, take

1076
00:59:39.760 --> 00:59:43.320
<v Speaker 4>take a body part, take something. I would call like

1077
00:59:43.719 --> 00:59:47.519
<v Speaker 4>a school or a university and say, hey, this is

1078
00:59:47.519 --> 00:59:53.119
<v Speaker 4>what I have. Come cash in on this, and you know,

1079
00:59:53.320 --> 00:59:55.800
<v Speaker 4>just put my name on it. I don't care. Just

1080
00:59:55.840 --> 00:59:58.280
<v Speaker 4>put my name on it, because just just having your

1081
00:59:58.360 --> 01:00:00.000
<v Speaker 4>name attached to it, you're you're going to be like

1082
01:00:00.039 --> 01:00:05.159
<v Speaker 4>can ikon after that. But the Robert, now, if I

1083
01:00:05.239 --> 01:00:07.280
<v Speaker 4>just if i'd I find a dead body, now, I'd

1084
01:00:07.360 --> 01:00:11.239
<v Speaker 4>believe I wouldn't even because if there's a dead body,

1085
01:00:11.280 --> 01:00:14.320
<v Speaker 4>there's probably gonna be more, you know, more other bigfoot

1086
01:00:14.360 --> 01:00:17.199
<v Speaker 4>in the area. So I'm I'm high telling on it.

1087
01:00:17.199 --> 01:00:18.920
<v Speaker 4>I'm gonna do the same thing you're doing. I will say, hey,

1088
01:00:18.920 --> 01:00:21.760
<v Speaker 4>I had nothing to do with it. Yeah, that's what

1089
01:00:21.800 --> 01:00:22.079
<v Speaker 4>I mean.

1090
01:00:22.119 --> 01:00:25.920
<v Speaker 5>Because I feel like they understand, they understand, and you

1091
01:00:26.320 --> 01:00:30.000
<v Speaker 5>Matt like and they see you cutting, they're gonna be like,

1092
01:00:30.000 --> 01:00:36.119
<v Speaker 5>oh no, absolutely not so that's just me though, I

1093
01:00:36.119 --> 01:00:36.480
<v Speaker 5>don't know.

1094
01:00:36.840 --> 01:00:38.280
<v Speaker 3>You know, old Robert would have done that.

1095
01:00:38.400 --> 01:00:42.039
<v Speaker 1>I said, yeah, in a hypothetical situation where you're not

1096
01:00:43.239 --> 01:00:44.480
<v Speaker 1>surrounded by Bigfoot.

1097
01:00:45.320 --> 01:00:48.719
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, you're right, he did say that. Okay, all right,

1098
01:00:48.760 --> 01:00:53.519
<v Speaker 3>Well then hypothetically you're you're your It makes you think

1099
01:00:53.679 --> 01:00:54.440
<v Speaker 3>it's a good question.

1100
01:00:54.599 --> 01:00:56.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I mean, I'll just say this I have in

1101
01:00:56.840 --> 01:01:01.239
<v Speaker 1>the past. I no longer feel this way. I let

1102
01:01:01.239 --> 01:01:03.920
<v Speaker 1>me add this disclaimer before I go forward. I no

1103
01:01:04.039 --> 01:01:06.679
<v Speaker 1>longer feel this way. I would no longer be involved

1104
01:01:06.679 --> 01:01:09.400
<v Speaker 1>in any of this. But at one point in time,

1105
01:01:10.840 --> 01:01:13.119
<v Speaker 1>maybe a couple points in time, I was part of

1106
01:01:14.239 --> 01:01:18.920
<v Speaker 1>groups of people that were actually working out this real

1107
01:01:19.159 --> 01:01:22.639
<v Speaker 1>life scenario, this actual plan of what we were going

1108
01:01:22.679 --> 01:01:25.800
<v Speaker 1>to do in the event that we were able to

1109
01:01:26.280 --> 01:01:31.039
<v Speaker 1>get a body. I know that people, you know, I

1110
01:01:31.119 --> 01:01:33.559
<v Speaker 1>talk about it on this show. I know you guys

1111
01:01:33.599 --> 01:01:37.400
<v Speaker 1>talk about it the cover up. You know big brother

1112
01:01:37.559 --> 01:01:40.960
<v Speaker 1>is watching. Can you even get away with something like that?

1113
01:01:41.119 --> 01:01:42.880
<v Speaker 1>And I will tell you that there are ways to

1114
01:01:42.920 --> 01:01:48.119
<v Speaker 1>get around that. There are absolutely if a body was

1115
01:01:48.159 --> 01:01:51.480
<v Speaker 1>to ever turn up in the right situation with the

1116
01:01:51.599 --> 01:01:55.480
<v Speaker 1>right people, they would get it out and word would

1117
01:01:55.480 --> 01:02:00.920
<v Speaker 1>get out to the world. It would not be covered up. Joey,

1118
01:02:01.119 --> 01:02:03.960
<v Speaker 1>another guy that was a guest on the show, wants

1119
01:02:04.000 --> 01:02:05.559
<v Speaker 1>to know can bigfoot swim?

1120
01:02:07.960 --> 01:02:12.559
<v Speaker 4>Yes, I was gonna say, I personally have not got

1121
01:02:13.239 --> 01:02:17.079
<v Speaker 4>the story of the bigfoot swimming, but I've read it

1122
01:02:17.119 --> 01:02:20.760
<v Speaker 4>in John Benner Nichols North American Grade eight The Sasquats,

1123
01:02:20.800 --> 01:02:25.119
<v Speaker 4>released in nineteen ninety eight. There's many stories of bigfoot

1124
01:02:25.159 --> 01:02:29.679
<v Speaker 4>swimming from Vancouver. I'm into the mainland, so I'll just

1125
01:02:29.719 --> 01:02:31.599
<v Speaker 4>say that I would.

1126
01:02:31.360 --> 01:02:34.800
<v Speaker 5>Say it comes natural to them. I would think it's

1127
01:02:34.840 --> 01:02:40.199
<v Speaker 5>like it's like dogs, you know, I just know. I

1128
01:02:40.239 --> 01:02:43.639
<v Speaker 5>think I that's my opinion on it. I'm pretty sure

1129
01:02:44.079 --> 01:02:45.920
<v Speaker 5>I could be wrong about that and there could be bigfoot.

1130
01:02:45.920 --> 01:02:47.599
<v Speaker 3>So they were like, no, I don't swim.

1131
01:02:48.639 --> 01:02:51.800
<v Speaker 1>I think it's like a situation where I don't know

1132
01:02:51.800 --> 01:02:55.800
<v Speaker 1>if they would like to swim, but I definitely think

1133
01:02:55.840 --> 01:02:56.920
<v Speaker 1>that they do swim.

1134
01:02:58.280 --> 01:02:58.440
<v Speaker 2>There.

1135
01:02:58.880 --> 01:03:02.559
<v Speaker 1>There is one area where the only way I could

1136
01:03:02.599 --> 01:03:05.159
<v Speaker 1>figure out how they got there was they had to

1137
01:03:05.440 --> 01:03:07.800
<v Speaker 1>cross the cove of a lake one way or another.

1138
01:03:08.320 --> 01:03:12.119
<v Speaker 1>Now I don't know the deepest part of that cove

1139
01:03:12.280 --> 01:03:16.360
<v Speaker 1>in particular. You know, possibly they waded across and never

1140
01:03:16.400 --> 01:03:19.800
<v Speaker 1>had to actually swim, but they definitely had to cross

1141
01:03:19.840 --> 01:03:23.599
<v Speaker 1>a large area of water to get from one area

1142
01:03:23.800 --> 01:03:27.039
<v Speaker 1>to the area where we were at. There was also

1143
01:03:28.079 --> 01:03:31.639
<v Speaker 1>a guest on this show early on The Hamilton Sisters

1144
01:03:32.760 --> 01:03:36.920
<v Speaker 1>where she saw a bigfoot come up while she was

1145
01:03:36.920 --> 01:03:39.639
<v Speaker 1>fishing out of a river, like poke its head up

1146
01:03:39.719 --> 01:03:43.800
<v Speaker 1>out of the water and scared her today Scar Yeah.

1147
01:03:43.920 --> 01:03:44.639
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1148
01:03:44.679 --> 01:03:48.760
<v Speaker 1>And then there's you know, I've heard other stories of

1149
01:03:48.840 --> 01:03:51.760
<v Speaker 1>like a guy fishing on a bridge and seeing a

1150
01:03:51.760 --> 01:03:54.880
<v Speaker 1>bigfoot swim underneath the bridge, right underneath him as he's

1151
01:03:54.920 --> 01:03:59.199
<v Speaker 1>like looking down in the water. So yeah, I would

1152
01:03:59.239 --> 01:04:02.480
<v Speaker 1>say they definitely can swim. And you know, like you're saying,

1153
01:04:02.519 --> 01:04:06.599
<v Speaker 1>there's there's quite a number of stories out there of

1154
01:04:06.639 --> 01:04:10.280
<v Speaker 1>them swimming. And like you're saying, Vancouver Island and other

1155
01:04:10.360 --> 01:04:14.079
<v Speaker 1>islands have bigfoot on them or you know, bigfoot sightings

1156
01:04:14.079 --> 01:04:15.800
<v Speaker 1>on them. They have to get to the island somehow.

1157
01:04:16.920 --> 01:04:17.199
<v Speaker 3>Yep.

1158
01:04:18.039 --> 01:04:22.159
<v Speaker 1>But the idea of like a bigfoot swimming beneath the surface,

1159
01:04:23.280 --> 01:04:26.519
<v Speaker 1>like that's terrifying. I don't know what it is, just

1160
01:04:26.559 --> 01:04:27.440
<v Speaker 1>really bothers me.

1161
01:04:28.360 --> 01:04:33.039
<v Speaker 5>Yep, because you can be swimming and then you know, yeah,

1162
01:04:33.079 --> 01:04:36.159
<v Speaker 5>and you come across one swimming at you or what

1163
01:04:36.320 --> 01:04:37.000
<v Speaker 5>because you you.

1164
01:04:36.960 --> 01:04:39.480
<v Speaker 4>Know, if you're researching in a lake area, you know,

1165
01:04:39.559 --> 01:04:41.920
<v Speaker 4>you're I would think your back is to the lake.

1166
01:04:43.000 --> 01:04:45.559
<v Speaker 4>You know, if you if you're doing bigfoot research close

1167
01:04:45.599 --> 01:04:47.079
<v Speaker 4>to a lake, if you're not't even thinking about the

1168
01:04:47.119 --> 01:04:49.719
<v Speaker 4>lakes of them, they can come upon you on the lake.

1169
01:04:49.760 --> 01:04:52.400
<v Speaker 3>That's scary. Yeah.

1170
01:04:52.599 --> 01:04:56.599
<v Speaker 1>Uncle Burr, Uncle Burr. So Uncle Burr is not an

1171
01:04:56.599 --> 01:05:01.400
<v Speaker 1>internet name. Uncle Burr is the nickname of my uncle.

1172
01:05:02.000 --> 01:05:06.159
<v Speaker 1>He actually supports me and follows the podcast and had

1173
01:05:06.199 --> 01:05:08.960
<v Speaker 1>a question, how long do they live?

1174
01:05:10.320 --> 01:05:11.039
<v Speaker 3>Good question?

1175
01:05:11.280 --> 01:05:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's a very good question. I think a lot

1176
01:05:14.000 --> 01:05:15.559
<v Speaker 1>of people would like to know the answer to that.

1177
01:05:16.119 --> 01:05:17.840
<v Speaker 1>And if we had the answer to that, then a

1178
01:05:17.880 --> 01:05:22.639
<v Speaker 1>lot of these questions would already be answered. Just going

1179
01:05:22.679 --> 01:05:28.519
<v Speaker 1>by humans and larger apes like gorillas and stuff. I

1180
01:05:28.559 --> 01:05:33.880
<v Speaker 1>would guess that in the wild these things could possibly

1181
01:05:34.000 --> 01:05:36.280
<v Speaker 1>live fifty to sixty years.

1182
01:05:37.480 --> 01:05:40.920
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I would think so, because they're eating very well,

1183
01:05:41.159 --> 01:05:47.199
<v Speaker 4>they're very eating, very healthy, and their body mass is

1184
01:05:47.239 --> 01:05:53.559
<v Speaker 4>probably you know, next level. Yeah, right, so they're probably

1185
01:05:53.639 --> 01:05:54.960
<v Speaker 4>living a long live.

1186
01:05:55.679 --> 01:06:03.039
<v Speaker 1>I think I think gorillas live fortys. I could be wrong,

1187
01:06:03.480 --> 01:06:05.760
<v Speaker 1>but I think that's close to rye. And then I

1188
01:06:05.800 --> 01:06:10.440
<v Speaker 1>try to take into consideration, like you know, humans in

1189
01:06:10.519 --> 01:06:13.639
<v Speaker 1>earlier generations that didn't have access to all the medical

1190
01:06:13.639 --> 01:06:16.079
<v Speaker 1>stuff that we've got now, like kind of what their

1191
01:06:16.079 --> 01:06:20.880
<v Speaker 1>potential life spans were. But then there's also things that

1192
01:06:20.920 --> 01:06:23.360
<v Speaker 1>you have to consider. We don't have any idea what

1193
01:06:23.480 --> 01:06:28.800
<v Speaker 1>kind of diseases bigfoot has, but I would guess that

1194
01:06:28.840 --> 01:06:31.880
<v Speaker 1>they don't have a lot compared to us because of

1195
01:06:31.960 --> 01:06:36.840
<v Speaker 1>just population sizes and things like that, and nature tends

1196
01:06:36.880 --> 01:06:40.840
<v Speaker 1>to like weed out that sort of thing, So I

1197
01:06:40.880 --> 01:06:43.320
<v Speaker 1>don't think they would have a lot of need for

1198
01:06:43.400 --> 01:06:48.039
<v Speaker 1>medical stuff like humans have. I think they're pretty robust

1199
01:06:48.119 --> 01:06:52.159
<v Speaker 1>and can survive pretty easily. So just going on the

1200
01:06:52.199 --> 01:06:55.000
<v Speaker 1>idea of like old age, yeah, I would say fifty

1201
01:06:55.000 --> 01:06:57.480
<v Speaker 1>to sixty years is a pretty decent guess at this point,

1202
01:06:57.719 --> 01:07:02.360
<v Speaker 1>assuming that we're talking about a flesh and blood biological creature,

1203
01:07:03.039 --> 01:07:05.599
<v Speaker 1>and if we're not, all bets are off out the door,

1204
01:07:05.880 --> 01:07:11.880
<v Speaker 1>out the dough Chelsea good friend. Chelsea says, do you

1205
01:07:11.920 --> 01:07:16.000
<v Speaker 1>think that bigfoot species are protected now without being declared

1206
01:07:16.039 --> 01:07:19.480
<v Speaker 1>by science government as a real life animal or would

1207
01:07:19.519 --> 01:07:23.920
<v Speaker 1>could they be better protected when known with laws set

1208
01:07:23.960 --> 01:07:28.159
<v Speaker 1>in place? What Chelsea is asking, I think, do they

1209
01:07:28.239 --> 01:07:32.800
<v Speaker 1>need our protection? And my opinion, no, they do not.

1210
01:07:33.239 --> 01:07:36.639
<v Speaker 1>I don't think they need to have laws or anything

1211
01:07:36.679 --> 01:07:40.639
<v Speaker 1>in place to protect these creatures because right now, nobody's

1212
01:07:40.679 --> 01:07:43.559
<v Speaker 1>even proven that they exist, So why would they need

1213
01:07:43.840 --> 01:07:45.199
<v Speaker 1>any protection from us?

1214
01:07:45.559 --> 01:07:45.960
<v Speaker 3>Bingo.

1215
01:07:46.239 --> 01:07:49.840
<v Speaker 4>I agree with your sentiment because they've been around a

1216
01:07:49.880 --> 01:07:51.639
<v Speaker 4>long time, probably a lot longer than we have than

1217
01:07:51.719 --> 01:07:53.280
<v Speaker 4>they haven't had any protections.

1218
01:07:53.280 --> 01:07:57.199
<v Speaker 1>Said, so, I do think that if they were proven

1219
01:07:57.239 --> 01:07:59.280
<v Speaker 1>to exist, that's when they would need the protection.

1220
01:08:00.239 --> 01:08:02.440
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I think you know the way I the way

1221
01:08:02.480 --> 01:08:05.880
<v Speaker 4>I see it, If you if you prove like say,

1222
01:08:05.880 --> 01:08:09.559
<v Speaker 4>for example, you prove it in Oklahoma, then you're gonna

1223
01:08:09.599 --> 01:08:12.079
<v Speaker 4>you're gonna need to know how how far they move,

1224
01:08:12.920 --> 01:08:15.760
<v Speaker 4>and then what area what areas are going to be protected.

1225
01:08:15.800 --> 01:08:18.399
<v Speaker 4>And once that happens, then you got to stop all

1226
01:08:18.600 --> 01:08:25.239
<v Speaker 4>like uh, you know, growth of industrial complexes and people's

1227
01:08:25.239 --> 01:08:29.199
<v Speaker 4>houses and you can't cut trees down. And so each

1228
01:08:29.239 --> 01:08:32.720
<v Speaker 4>state is probably going to have to do this like separately.

1229
01:08:33.000 --> 01:08:35.760
<v Speaker 3>Not, it wouldn't be like a national thing. You don't

1230
01:08:35.760 --> 01:08:36.439
<v Speaker 3>think it.

1231
01:08:36.439 --> 01:08:39.399
<v Speaker 1>Would be locked up in litigation for so long because

1232
01:08:39.600 --> 01:08:42.600
<v Speaker 1>what happens whenever you have like a bigfoot family living

1233
01:08:42.600 --> 01:08:47.520
<v Speaker 1>on somebody's private property. Yeah, and then the federal government

1234
01:08:47.520 --> 01:08:49.680
<v Speaker 1>comes in and says, Okay, well, you can't farm on

1235
01:08:49.760 --> 01:08:52.439
<v Speaker 1>your property anymore because bigfoot live here.

1236
01:08:53.920 --> 01:08:56.199
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, and then they get up and move and go

1237
01:08:56.279 --> 01:08:59.880
<v Speaker 4>to Oklahoma. Yeah, and leave Texas and go to Oklahoma

1238
01:08:59.880 --> 01:09:03.560
<v Speaker 4>and the laws change there, and so yeah, I agree

1239
01:09:03.600 --> 01:09:05.920
<v Speaker 4>with you on that one. That's gonna I think it's

1240
01:09:05.960 --> 01:09:09.119
<v Speaker 4>just better. I'll just leave them alone and leave them alone.

1241
01:09:09.840 --> 01:09:15.479
<v Speaker 1>But where's the fun in that? Yeah? Less rites in.

1242
01:09:16.479 --> 01:09:19.359
<v Speaker 1>Have you heard any reasonable theories on why these things

1243
01:09:19.359 --> 01:09:22.119
<v Speaker 1>will sometimes sway back and forth when standing in front

1244
01:09:22.159 --> 01:09:25.960
<v Speaker 1>of a witness. I'd love to hear the Native American

1245
01:09:26.119 --> 01:09:30.000
<v Speaker 1>perspective on this behavior. Well, unfortunately I cannot give you

1246
01:09:30.039 --> 01:09:33.960
<v Speaker 1>the Native American perspective on that behavior. But I can

1247
01:09:34.159 --> 01:09:40.880
<v Speaker 1>tell you that not saying that Bigfoot is related, but

1248
01:09:42.119 --> 01:09:47.399
<v Speaker 1>known primates such as chimpanzees and gorillas and orangutans will

1249
01:09:47.520 --> 01:09:51.359
<v Speaker 1>do the same exact thing. Typically when they're nervous or excited.

1250
01:09:51.920 --> 01:09:55.760
<v Speaker 1>It's kind of like a nervous tick. They start kind

1251
01:09:55.760 --> 01:09:58.359
<v Speaker 1>of shifting their weight side to side and swam back

1252
01:09:58.359 --> 01:10:04.000
<v Speaker 1>and forth freaking out. So it's kind of like a

1253
01:10:04.039 --> 01:10:10.039
<v Speaker 1>fear response. So if Bigfoot is a primate, the best

1254
01:10:10.079 --> 01:10:11.880
<v Speaker 1>guess would be that that's why they're doing it.

1255
01:10:12.359 --> 01:10:17.439
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I've had several stories of this happening. What do

1256
01:10:17.479 --> 01:10:21.720
<v Speaker 4>you think about the theory of the weight displacement on.

1257
01:10:21.760 --> 01:10:24.760
<v Speaker 1>That them just like counterbalancing their weight while they're standing

1258
01:10:24.800 --> 01:10:28.800
<v Speaker 1>on two legs. Yep, yeah, I mean that's definitely a

1259
01:10:28.840 --> 01:10:34.000
<v Speaker 1>possibility as well. People, you know, Bigfoot has always been

1260
01:10:34.159 --> 01:10:39.680
<v Speaker 1>believed to be a bipedal creature, which it very well

1261
01:10:39.720 --> 01:10:42.119
<v Speaker 1>could be. You know, we've got the parison film. If

1262
01:10:42.199 --> 01:10:45.560
<v Speaker 1>you believe Patty is a real Bigfoot, you clearly see

1263
01:10:45.600 --> 01:10:48.840
<v Speaker 1>her walking away on two legs. But a lot of

1264
01:10:48.880 --> 01:10:52.800
<v Speaker 1>animals stand up on two legs whenever they get frightened

1265
01:10:53.000 --> 01:10:57.000
<v Speaker 1>or they're trying to intimidate somebody. They try to appear

1266
01:10:57.039 --> 01:10:59.640
<v Speaker 1>as large as they are, but normally they're on four legs.

1267
01:11:00.399 --> 01:11:04.880
<v Speaker 1>And again, something that wasn't ever really a thing whenever

1268
01:11:04.920 --> 01:11:09.319
<v Speaker 1>I started this journey, but was kind of already established

1269
01:11:09.359 --> 01:11:11.800
<v Speaker 1>in the South and eventually caught on everywhere else, is

1270
01:11:11.880 --> 01:11:15.000
<v Speaker 1>the idea of Bigfoot being on all fours and using

1271
01:11:15.520 --> 01:11:18.840
<v Speaker 1>all fours for a lot of travel. I mean, it

1272
01:11:18.880 --> 01:11:20.840
<v Speaker 1>would make sense for a larger creature like that to

1273
01:11:20.880 --> 01:11:26.399
<v Speaker 1>be on all fours. So maybe even though we see

1274
01:11:26.439 --> 01:11:29.000
<v Speaker 1>them on two legs, and even though they're comfortable on

1275
01:11:29.000 --> 01:11:32.359
<v Speaker 1>two legs, maybe that's not their preferred choice. Maybe they're

1276
01:11:32.840 --> 01:11:36.760
<v Speaker 1>actually a quadrupedal thing, and so if they're standing up

1277
01:11:36.800 --> 01:11:40.279
<v Speaker 1>on two legs, maybe they have to shift that weight around.

1278
01:11:40.479 --> 01:11:42.680
<v Speaker 1>So maybe that's why they're walking back and forth like

1279
01:11:42.720 --> 01:11:48.680
<v Speaker 1>you're saying. Another thing that I've thought about is owls

1280
01:11:48.720 --> 01:11:52.119
<v Speaker 1>will move their heads around to use their eyesight and

1281
01:11:52.279 --> 01:11:55.479
<v Speaker 1>judge like distances and things like that, and kind of

1282
01:11:56.039 --> 01:11:58.119
<v Speaker 1>it has something to do with their nocturnal eyesight. And

1283
01:11:58.159 --> 01:12:00.680
<v Speaker 1>I've sometimes wondered if maybe big but are doing it

1284
01:12:00.720 --> 01:12:03.119
<v Speaker 1>for that reason. Maybe it aids them in their eyesight

1285
01:12:03.199 --> 01:12:05.560
<v Speaker 1>determining like how far away we are whatever.

1286
01:12:06.199 --> 01:12:09.039
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, because I've heard I've heard stories of them like

1287
01:12:09.119 --> 01:12:11.680
<v Speaker 4>their eyes sunken into their skull.

1288
01:12:12.039 --> 01:12:12.640
<v Speaker 3>Have you heard that.

1289
01:12:13.000 --> 01:12:18.159
<v Speaker 1>Well, the one I saw had a very pronounced browridge

1290
01:12:18.159 --> 01:12:21.880
<v Speaker 1>and very deep set eyes. I always thought that maybe

1291
01:12:21.920 --> 01:12:27.920
<v Speaker 1>that was an adaptation because of their nocturnal eyesight. If

1292
01:12:28.640 --> 01:12:30.720
<v Speaker 1>you wanted to be diurnal and be able to see

1293
01:12:30.760 --> 01:12:32.880
<v Speaker 1>during the day, it would help if you know, those

1294
01:12:32.880 --> 01:12:35.640
<v Speaker 1>eyes were set back and kind of shadowed and not

1295
01:12:35.840 --> 01:12:39.079
<v Speaker 1>just like out exposed to the light. But I don't

1296
01:12:39.119 --> 01:12:44.199
<v Speaker 1>know Supernatural Station podcast rights, Matt, what's the one bigfoot

1297
01:12:44.199 --> 01:12:46.960
<v Speaker 1>story that was told to you that tends to stand

1298
01:12:47.000 --> 01:12:49.359
<v Speaker 1>out more than the rest whenever you recall the stories

1299
01:12:49.399 --> 01:12:50.479
<v Speaker 1>you have heard over.

1300
01:12:50.319 --> 01:12:54.840
<v Speaker 2>The years, And uh, not.

1301
01:12:54.840 --> 01:12:56.359
<v Speaker 1>To cheapen the question, but I'm going to have to

1302
01:12:56.399 --> 01:12:58.920
<v Speaker 1>refer back to the old man at the hospital. That

1303
01:12:58.960 --> 01:13:02.319
<v Speaker 1>one just really hit hard with me, just really hit hard.

1304
01:13:02.720 --> 01:13:02.920
<v Speaker 3>Yep.

1305
01:13:03.279 --> 01:13:05.359
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, you mean, you hear a lot of stories about

1306
01:13:05.600 --> 01:13:09.239
<v Speaker 4>big was getting shot or hit by a train or

1307
01:13:09.279 --> 01:13:12.760
<v Speaker 4>eighteen wheeler, but very rarely do you run into someone

1308
01:13:12.800 --> 01:13:14.800
<v Speaker 4>that actually shot a bigfoot.

1309
01:13:14.359 --> 01:13:17.600
<v Speaker 1>Right, Yeah, and again, it wasn't like a guy trying

1310
01:13:17.600 --> 01:13:20.399
<v Speaker 1>to get on the podcast. He didn't know me, there

1311
01:13:20.479 --> 01:13:23.399
<v Speaker 1>was no reason for you know, this wasn't like a

1312
01:13:23.439 --> 01:13:26.199
<v Speaker 1>story that you make up on the spot. He had

1313
01:13:26.239 --> 01:13:30.279
<v Speaker 1>tears in his eyes, and yeah, it just I mean,

1314
01:13:30.319 --> 01:13:33.359
<v Speaker 1>it was that in person aspect of it. You know,

1315
01:13:33.439 --> 01:13:36.199
<v Speaker 1>that probably made it stand out so profoundly to me

1316
01:13:37.079 --> 01:13:39.640
<v Speaker 1>and just caught me off guard. But it was also

1317
01:13:39.640 --> 01:13:40.439
<v Speaker 1>a great story.

1318
01:13:40.960 --> 01:13:42.439
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1319
01:13:42.479 --> 01:13:45.479
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, that one's probably the one that stands out

1320
01:13:45.520 --> 01:13:48.199
<v Speaker 1>the most. But you know, there's lots of stories over

1321
01:13:48.239 --> 01:13:51.000
<v Speaker 1>the years that have kind of stood out, but that

1322
01:13:51.039 --> 01:13:53.159
<v Speaker 1>one is definitely up there.

1323
01:13:54.399 --> 01:13:58.960
<v Speaker 4>I forgot on that story. Try to like refresh my memory.

1324
01:13:59.319 --> 01:14:01.000
<v Speaker 4>Was that that in Oklahoma.

1325
01:14:01.199 --> 01:14:05.880
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it was just on the other side of Sand

1326
01:14:05.920 --> 01:14:08.600
<v Speaker 1>Springs And whenever I say the other side the west

1327
01:14:08.840 --> 01:14:11.560
<v Speaker 1>side of Sand Springs for people that aren't from here

1328
01:14:11.560 --> 01:14:15.359
<v Speaker 1>and know where I live, Yeah, yeah, it was in

1329
01:14:15.399 --> 01:14:18.399
<v Speaker 1>a small community on the other side out in the Boonies.

1330
01:14:19.640 --> 01:14:20.960
<v Speaker 3>That's a heavily wooded area.

1331
01:14:21.199 --> 01:14:24.640
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, an area that I have spent some time in

1332
01:14:24.680 --> 01:14:27.479
<v Speaker 1>that's pretty pretty rugged even now.

1333
01:14:27.960 --> 01:14:30.159
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, because when I was living in Tulsa, I was

1334
01:14:30.199 --> 01:14:32.920
<v Speaker 4>working for, you know, a company, and we would travel

1335
01:14:32.960 --> 01:14:35.479
<v Speaker 4>out to Sand Springs and the other side of Sand

1336
01:14:35.479 --> 01:14:38.640
<v Speaker 4>Springs and it was like we would drive for hours

1337
01:14:38.720 --> 01:14:39.000
<v Speaker 4>just to.

1338
01:14:38.960 --> 01:14:41.840
<v Speaker 3>Make it to a house. And it's pretty wide open

1339
01:14:41.880 --> 01:14:42.479
<v Speaker 3>in that area.

1340
01:14:42.600 --> 01:14:46.439
<v Speaker 1>So there used to be this couple named Martha and CJ.

1341
01:14:46.680 --> 01:14:49.319
<v Speaker 1>From here in Oklahoma and a Native American couple that

1342
01:14:49.359 --> 01:14:52.600
<v Speaker 1>we knew, and they had all kinds of stories.

1343
01:14:52.600 --> 01:14:52.840
<v Speaker 2>Man.

1344
01:14:53.079 --> 01:14:55.359
<v Speaker 1>I mean, there is stuff going on all the time

1345
01:14:55.399 --> 01:14:58.640
<v Speaker 1>where they live, and there's still stuff that goes on

1346
01:14:58.720 --> 01:15:03.720
<v Speaker 1>there in that community on a pretty regular basis. But

1347
01:15:03.920 --> 01:15:07.359
<v Speaker 1>these people had activity going on their place all the time,

1348
01:15:08.239 --> 01:15:13.239
<v Speaker 1>and Martha had had activity in her life since she

1349
01:15:13.359 --> 01:15:16.840
<v Speaker 1>was a little girl. And one of the stories that

1350
01:15:16.920 --> 01:15:23.920
<v Speaker 1>she had from whenever she was younger was actually leading

1351
01:15:24.000 --> 01:15:29.039
<v Speaker 1>a bigfoot into their house like holding onto its two fingers.

1352
01:15:30.000 --> 01:15:33.159
<v Speaker 1>She's a little girl, mind you, and she's like walking

1353
01:15:33.199 --> 01:15:37.720
<v Speaker 1>with this thing through her front door, and like she

1354
01:15:37.840 --> 01:15:40.960
<v Speaker 1>opens the front door and walks in, and this bigfoot

1355
01:15:41.000 --> 01:15:42.880
<v Speaker 1>comes in behind her and kind of like ducks its

1356
01:15:42.880 --> 01:15:46.319
<v Speaker 1>head underneath the door, and all the men jump up,

1357
01:15:46.359 --> 01:15:48.079
<v Speaker 1>you know, and they're like trying to get it out

1358
01:15:48.119 --> 01:15:49.680
<v Speaker 1>of the house and shoot it out of the house,

1359
01:15:50.239 --> 01:15:53.640
<v Speaker 1>and it just looks at me and goes and turns

1360
01:15:53.680 --> 01:15:55.680
<v Speaker 1>around and ducks back onto the door and walks off.

1361
01:15:56.800 --> 01:16:04.399
<v Speaker 3>That Yeah, yeah.

1362
01:16:04.079 --> 01:16:05.479
<v Speaker 2>That one always stood out, Timmy.

1363
01:16:08.479 --> 01:16:10.479
<v Speaker 1>Of course, that sounds like a crazy story to a

1364
01:16:10.520 --> 01:16:12.920
<v Speaker 1>lot of people, but I'm telling you, these are the

1365
01:16:13.000 --> 01:16:16.199
<v Speaker 1>type of stories that I quote unquote grew up with

1366
01:16:16.359 --> 01:16:19.600
<v Speaker 1>in Oklahoma in my Bigfoot journey, Like I heard these

1367
01:16:19.680 --> 01:16:22.199
<v Speaker 1>kind of stories all the time, and then would actually

1368
01:16:22.279 --> 01:16:24.279
<v Speaker 1>go to the places and meet the people and get

1369
01:16:24.279 --> 01:16:26.279
<v Speaker 1>to know them and become friends with them. At the

1370
01:16:26.359 --> 01:16:28.079
<v Speaker 1>end of the day, you're just left with not knowing

1371
01:16:28.079 --> 01:16:30.079
<v Speaker 1>what to think, and there's still people in this area

1372
01:16:30.680 --> 01:16:33.359
<v Speaker 1>that have experiences like these and tell these stories.

1373
01:16:34.279 --> 01:16:35.479
<v Speaker 2>What are you left with? Man?

1374
01:16:36.880 --> 01:16:39.880
<v Speaker 1>There was a situation Randy. I've talked about him on

1375
01:16:39.920 --> 01:16:42.720
<v Speaker 1>the show before. Bigfoot would come to his mom's house

1376
01:16:42.720 --> 01:16:46.520
<v Speaker 1>all the time, and they would just go out into

1377
01:16:46.560 --> 01:16:48.680
<v Speaker 1>the backyard with their lawn chairs and kind of set

1378
01:16:48.680 --> 01:16:50.479
<v Speaker 1>them up and sit back there and talk and wait

1379
01:16:50.479 --> 01:16:52.960
<v Speaker 1>for the Bigfoot to kind of come up and you know,

1380
01:16:53.439 --> 01:16:55.199
<v Speaker 1>check them out and everything and look at the Bigfoot.

1381
01:16:55.399 --> 01:16:57.399
<v Speaker 1>It was like a form of entertainment for them in

1382
01:16:57.439 --> 01:17:02.800
<v Speaker 1>the evenings and time. His mom's got this little shed

1383
01:17:02.840 --> 01:17:05.399
<v Speaker 1>on her property, this you know, kind of a storage barn,

1384
01:17:06.079 --> 01:17:08.520
<v Speaker 1>and you know, it's got the sheet metal walls and everything.

1385
01:17:09.399 --> 01:17:14.039
<v Speaker 1>And something got into the shed and stole like a

1386
01:17:14.079 --> 01:17:16.960
<v Speaker 1>bag of feet of some kind if I remember right.

1387
01:17:18.039 --> 01:17:19.920
<v Speaker 1>And I saw the pictures of the shed. This thing

1388
01:17:19.960 --> 01:17:22.199
<v Speaker 1>didn't go through the door or the window. It ripped

1389
01:17:22.239 --> 01:17:25.239
<v Speaker 1>a hole in the side of the shed and you

1390
01:17:25.239 --> 01:17:30.439
<v Speaker 1>could see like where something literally put a hole in

1391
01:17:30.560 --> 01:17:33.199
<v Speaker 1>sheet metal, and like it just looked like something with

1392
01:17:33.319 --> 01:17:35.880
<v Speaker 1>hands just grabbed it and ripped it open, and it

1393
01:17:35.920 --> 01:17:38.600
<v Speaker 1>had reached in there and felt around and grabbed the

1394
01:17:38.640 --> 01:17:40.319
<v Speaker 1>bag of feed and pulled it out through the hole

1395
01:17:40.680 --> 01:17:43.119
<v Speaker 1>and took off with it. And I mean I saw

1396
01:17:43.199 --> 01:17:46.960
<v Speaker 1>the shed you know, later on in person. So it's like,

1397
01:17:48.119 --> 01:17:49.760
<v Speaker 1>how do you not believe those stories?

1398
01:17:50.039 --> 01:17:50.479
<v Speaker 3>Yeah?

1399
01:17:50.359 --> 01:17:53.000
<v Speaker 1>Why would they make up something like that? What can

1400
01:17:53.039 --> 01:17:55.239
<v Speaker 1>tear through the side of a sheet metal shed?

1401
01:17:55.680 --> 01:17:56.560
<v Speaker 3>That?

1402
01:17:57.479 --> 01:17:57.840
<v Speaker 2>Yeah?

1403
01:17:57.880 --> 01:17:58.840
<v Speaker 3>What do you do?

1404
01:17:58.920 --> 01:18:01.520
<v Speaker 2>What do you do at the laughter is you know,

1405
01:18:01.560 --> 01:18:03.560
<v Speaker 2>that's something that gets reported every now and then, people

1406
01:18:03.600 --> 01:18:05.760
<v Speaker 2>hearing laughter like that out in the woods, Like.

1407
01:18:05.840 --> 01:18:07.880
<v Speaker 3>Is it a form of intimidation.

1408
01:18:07.479 --> 01:18:11.159
<v Speaker 5>Like like like I walked into your house?

1409
01:18:11.199 --> 01:18:11.760
<v Speaker 3>Haha?

1410
01:18:11.840 --> 01:18:16.560
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's a joke. Oh god, yeah, I'll leave.

1411
01:18:18.680 --> 01:18:20.640
<v Speaker 3>Because I want to, not because you're making me.

1412
01:18:20.800 --> 01:18:21.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah.

1413
01:18:21.279 --> 01:18:26.560
<v Speaker 1>And Martha, you know, Martha wasn't just like a regular person.

1414
01:18:27.600 --> 01:18:34.079
<v Speaker 1>She was considered, you know, gifted in a spiritual sense.

1415
01:18:35.520 --> 01:18:39.119
<v Speaker 1>Brandon of Tinfoil tells podcast that you may have heard

1416
01:18:39.199 --> 01:18:42.960
<v Speaker 1>on this show and heard me mentioned before. He says,

1417
01:18:42.960 --> 01:18:46.600
<v Speaker 1>if Bigfoot was proven to exist, what sort of ramifications

1418
01:18:46.600 --> 01:18:49.560
<v Speaker 1>do you think would happen from the discovery and how

1419
01:18:49.600 --> 01:18:51.000
<v Speaker 1>does it impact humanity?

1420
01:18:51.960 --> 01:18:52.800
<v Speaker 2>What do you think, Bob?

1421
01:18:53.399 --> 01:18:57.000
<v Speaker 4>Like I said before, I think that one would It

1422
01:18:57.039 --> 01:18:59.600
<v Speaker 4>would just it would change a lot of way what

1423
01:18:59.640 --> 01:19:05.560
<v Speaker 4>we think think Yeah about you know, the history of

1424
01:19:05.640 --> 01:19:09.720
<v Speaker 4>man and biblical stuff. I hate to say that, but

1425
01:19:10.079 --> 01:19:12.319
<v Speaker 4>it would. It would affect a lot of stuff, and

1426
01:19:12.920 --> 01:19:17.479
<v Speaker 4>it would cast a lot of doubt, uh in the world.

1427
01:19:17.800 --> 01:19:21.960
<v Speaker 4>I think maybe call some chaos. That's just me how

1428
01:19:22.039 --> 01:19:22.880
<v Speaker 4>I think about.

1429
01:19:22.680 --> 01:19:26.279
<v Speaker 3>It, Steven, Yeah, I would agree. I would.

1430
01:19:26.319 --> 01:19:30.479
<v Speaker 5>I would quote everything you've read and science books is

1431
01:19:30.520 --> 01:19:33.520
<v Speaker 5>about to change from science mm hmm.

1432
01:19:35.039 --> 01:19:35.239
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1433
01:19:35.279 --> 01:19:37.279
<v Speaker 5>I think I think it would. It would really really

1434
01:19:37.319 --> 01:19:44.640
<v Speaker 5>impact us as human beings. And I think, for some reason,

1435
01:19:44.680 --> 01:19:46.319
<v Speaker 5>I still think, I still think that there's going to

1436
01:19:46.359 --> 01:19:49.039
<v Speaker 5>be people that now it's fake, that's still gonna be

1437
01:19:49.119 --> 01:19:53.439
<v Speaker 5>people that they choose not to believe because they keep saying, oh,

1438
01:19:53.479 --> 01:19:54.319
<v Speaker 5>you know, big it's real.

1439
01:19:54.359 --> 01:19:55.760
<v Speaker 3>How come we haven't found a body. Well, now we

1440
01:19:55.840 --> 01:19:58.199
<v Speaker 3>got a living body. We see them all the time. Now,

1441
01:19:58.600 --> 01:20:01.880
<v Speaker 3>Oh no, it's just people. Unless suit it's going to

1442
01:20:01.920 --> 01:20:03.880
<v Speaker 3>be both. Unfortunately, that's what I think.

1443
01:20:05.159 --> 01:20:08.880
<v Speaker 1>I always thought that, like, there's no way that they

1444
01:20:08.880 --> 01:20:12.119
<v Speaker 1>don't know about these things already. And whenever I say hey,

1445
01:20:12.239 --> 01:20:16.000
<v Speaker 1>I mean the government and not just the United States,

1446
01:20:16.920 --> 01:20:19.159
<v Speaker 1>all over the world, because these things aren't just in

1447
01:20:19.239 --> 01:20:24.880
<v Speaker 1>North America. There's you know, Bigfoot everywhere. So then if

1448
01:20:24.920 --> 01:20:29.079
<v Speaker 1>they know that they're out there. Why do they keep

1449
01:20:29.079 --> 01:20:32.079
<v Speaker 1>them a secret or at least not admit that they

1450
01:20:32.119 --> 01:20:35.520
<v Speaker 1>know that they're out there. Chances are they've probably already

1451
01:20:35.600 --> 01:20:40.039
<v Speaker 1>studied them way more so than we've ever been able to.

1452
01:20:41.000 --> 01:20:43.520
<v Speaker 1>And I kind of think that the reason must be

1453
01:20:43.520 --> 01:20:46.159
<v Speaker 1>because they do know what they are, and they do

1454
01:20:46.279 --> 01:20:51.319
<v Speaker 1>know that it would cause a lot of problems if

1455
01:20:51.319 --> 01:20:56.920
<v Speaker 1>it was admitted to. It can't just be some undiscovered

1456
01:20:57.079 --> 01:21:00.560
<v Speaker 1>ape because of that very reason, in my opinion, if

1457
01:21:00.600 --> 01:21:04.720
<v Speaker 1>it was just like something like a gorilla, they would

1458
01:21:04.760 --> 01:21:06.960
<v Speaker 1>just be like, yeah, that's a North American ape. Here,

1459
01:21:07.039 --> 01:21:10.119
<v Speaker 1>it is in a zoo. Here, it is in a museum,

1460
01:21:10.560 --> 01:21:13.479
<v Speaker 1>you know, like and that's it. But they don't do

1461
01:21:13.520 --> 01:21:14.359
<v Speaker 1>that for some reason.

1462
01:21:15.159 --> 01:21:15.399
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1463
01:21:15.560 --> 01:21:21.640
<v Speaker 4>I recall listening to Sarah Bignall Yawi Central podcasts and

1464
01:21:21.079 --> 01:21:26.359
<v Speaker 4>she was interviewing a soldier from the Australian government and

1465
01:21:26.399 --> 01:21:28.600
<v Speaker 4>he was saying he told her he didn't have a

1466
01:21:28.720 --> 01:21:30.920
<v Speaker 4>proof of it, but he was telling her that they

1467
01:21:31.319 --> 01:21:34.920
<v Speaker 4>would hand out whenever they joined like the military, or

1468
01:21:34.920 --> 01:21:38.600
<v Speaker 4>they would go out and do excursions in like the bush,

1469
01:21:39.079 --> 01:21:42.560
<v Speaker 4>that they would hand out pamphlets of Yawi's about what

1470
01:21:42.600 --> 01:21:45.520
<v Speaker 4>they were, what they did, where were they in the

1471
01:21:45.600 --> 01:21:49.119
<v Speaker 4>area and so, but he was he was talking about that.

1472
01:21:49.199 --> 01:21:51.399
<v Speaker 4>So if the Australian government knows about it but doesn't

1473
01:21:51.399 --> 01:21:53.920
<v Speaker 4>want to tell the public, Yeah.

1474
01:21:53.239 --> 01:21:57.079
<v Speaker 1>I used to think, you know, comparing it to Okay,

1475
01:21:57.159 --> 01:22:00.039
<v Speaker 1>well if it's not flesh and blood versus if it

1476
01:22:00.119 --> 01:22:03.520
<v Speaker 1>is flesh and blood. And I think both sides have

1477
01:22:03.640 --> 01:22:07.199
<v Speaker 1>their own arguments as to why it would be a

1478
01:22:07.319 --> 01:22:10.319
<v Speaker 1>huge deal if it was ever acknowledged or admitted to.

1479
01:22:12.199 --> 01:22:14.399
<v Speaker 1>I think it would cause problems either way. You look

1480
01:22:14.439 --> 01:22:17.800
<v Speaker 1>at it like science could be proven wrong or science

1481
01:22:17.840 --> 01:22:20.880
<v Speaker 1>could be proven right. Either way, it would cause problems.

1482
01:22:22.560 --> 01:22:27.359
<v Speaker 1>Brandon also wrote, if sasquatch is a biological creature, what

1483
01:22:27.399 --> 01:22:30.199
<v Speaker 1>would the day to day life look like in your opinion?

1484
01:22:30.920 --> 01:22:35.760
<v Speaker 1>And how has it remained elusive with the expansion of humanity.

1485
01:22:37.119 --> 01:22:41.359
<v Speaker 1>Day to day life I think would be very similar

1486
01:22:41.399 --> 01:22:46.520
<v Speaker 1>to any human living off the land in the wild

1487
01:22:47.800 --> 01:22:50.600
<v Speaker 1>that was adapted to do so. I think they have

1488
01:22:50.960 --> 01:22:54.159
<v Speaker 1>families just like we do. I think they have small

1489
01:22:54.199 --> 01:22:58.159
<v Speaker 1>communities just like we do, and so I think the

1490
01:22:58.239 --> 01:23:01.239
<v Speaker 1>majority of their day would be looking after the young,

1491
01:23:02.039 --> 01:23:07.279
<v Speaker 1>looking after the elderly, and foraging for food, you know,

1492
01:23:08.119 --> 01:23:12.119
<v Speaker 1>just living their life the way that they've remained elusive

1493
01:23:12.920 --> 01:23:17.680
<v Speaker 1>is human ego. I think that we think we're way

1494
01:23:17.720 --> 01:23:21.960
<v Speaker 1>smarter than what we actually are. I don't believe humanity

1495
01:23:22.000 --> 01:23:24.800
<v Speaker 1>has expanded to the extent that most people think it has.

1496
01:23:25.439 --> 01:23:29.000
<v Speaker 1>I think the majority of space out there is just

1497
01:23:29.119 --> 01:23:32.880
<v Speaker 1>areas that we travel through or visit from time to time.

1498
01:23:33.960 --> 01:23:37.520
<v Speaker 1>And in those areas where we do have humanity actually

1499
01:23:37.560 --> 01:23:39.920
<v Speaker 1>living on a regular basis, I think a lot of

1500
01:23:39.960 --> 01:23:42.560
<v Speaker 1>those places already know these things exist, see them all

1501
01:23:42.600 --> 01:23:46.279
<v Speaker 1>the time, and just accept it and keep it to themselves.

1502
01:23:46.359 --> 01:23:51.960
<v Speaker 4>I do recall, and I have the privilege to speak

1503
01:23:52.000 --> 01:23:55.279
<v Speaker 4>to John Dennenegel before he passed, and I asked him

1504
01:23:55.279 --> 01:23:58.600
<v Speaker 4>this question. I asked him why have they been elusive?

1505
01:23:58.920 --> 01:24:01.119
<v Speaker 4>And you know, he thought for a minute and he

1506
01:24:01.199 --> 01:24:04.880
<v Speaker 4>told me. He goes, well, Robert, he goes, And I'm

1507
01:24:04.920 --> 01:24:07.199
<v Speaker 4>just I'm just paraphrasing here because I don't remember clary

1508
01:24:07.239 --> 01:24:10.279
<v Speaker 4>what he said, but he said that he goes, a

1509
01:24:10.399 --> 01:24:14.319
<v Speaker 4>deer has a cute eyesight and hearing and smell.

1510
01:24:15.039 --> 01:24:15.359
<v Speaker 3>He goes.

1511
01:24:15.479 --> 01:24:20.039
<v Speaker 4>Picture this as a deer with the brain. That's how

1512
01:24:20.079 --> 01:24:24.439
<v Speaker 4>they like stay elusive. They know you're coming before you

1513
01:24:24.520 --> 01:24:28.600
<v Speaker 4>know it, and they're out of the area. So That's

1514
01:24:28.600 --> 01:24:30.920
<v Speaker 4>what he told me, and I've I've taken that to

1515
01:24:31.000 --> 01:24:33.560
<v Speaker 4>heart and I've always kept it with me.

1516
01:24:34.000 --> 01:24:37.680
<v Speaker 1>So, I mean, think about this. We have no even

1517
01:24:37.840 --> 01:24:42.279
<v Speaker 1>way to estimate this number. How many active bigfooters are there,

1518
01:24:43.279 --> 01:24:48.479
<v Speaker 1>not just right now, but since the very beginning, in total,

1519
01:24:49.520 --> 01:24:55.159
<v Speaker 1>a lot thousands? Yeah, Okay, people that actually go out

1520
01:24:55.199 --> 01:24:58.279
<v Speaker 1>looking for this thing? How many bigfooters do you know

1521
01:25:01.039 --> 01:25:04.920
<v Speaker 1>or that you've ever even heard about? Who said you know?

1522
01:25:05.199 --> 01:25:09.800
<v Speaker 1>I went out there on a regular basis. I went

1523
01:25:09.840 --> 01:25:14.039
<v Speaker 1>out looking for evidence. I talked to witnesses, and I

1524
01:25:14.159 --> 01:25:18.600
<v Speaker 1>never found anything. I never found any evidence. I never

1525
01:25:18.640 --> 01:25:22.000
<v Speaker 1>found any tracks. I never found anything that would lead

1526
01:25:22.039 --> 01:25:25.319
<v Speaker 1>me to believe that these things actually exist. I don't

1527
01:25:25.319 --> 01:25:27.840
<v Speaker 1>think they are elusive. I just think that nobody ever

1528
01:25:27.920 --> 01:25:30.399
<v Speaker 1>looks for them, and the people that do look for

1529
01:25:30.439 --> 01:25:33.680
<v Speaker 1>them find evidence of them. Do I think that they're

1530
01:25:33.720 --> 01:25:35.720
<v Speaker 1>hard to photograph and hard to video and hard to.

1531
01:25:35.640 --> 01:25:36.520
<v Speaker 2>Get a view of.

1532
01:25:36.840 --> 01:25:40.720
<v Speaker 1>Yes, absolutely, But if you go out looking for these

1533
01:25:40.760 --> 01:25:45.399
<v Speaker 1>things and you actually put enough effort into it, you're

1534
01:25:45.479 --> 01:25:48.319
<v Speaker 1>going to find evidence of them being out there. You're

1535
01:25:48.359 --> 01:25:51.520
<v Speaker 1>going to hear their vocalizations, You're going to hear them

1536
01:25:51.560 --> 01:25:54.319
<v Speaker 1>walking around you, You're going to find their tracks. I

1537
01:25:54.359 --> 01:25:59.279
<v Speaker 1>don't know anybody worth their salt that hasn't. The majority

1538
01:25:59.279 --> 01:26:03.520
<v Speaker 1>of people that say these things don't exist are people

1539
01:26:03.520 --> 01:26:05.800
<v Speaker 1>that have never ever gone.

1540
01:26:05.520 --> 01:26:06.399
<v Speaker 2>Out and looked for them.

1541
01:26:07.079 --> 01:26:11.359
<v Speaker 1>I agree, Yep and Brandon's final question, and we'll end

1542
01:26:11.399 --> 01:26:14.359
<v Speaker 1>it with this one. If there was one thing you've

1543
01:26:14.439 --> 01:26:17.319
<v Speaker 1>learned over the years, what is the most important when

1544
01:26:17.319 --> 01:26:19.920
<v Speaker 1>it comes to looking for sasquatch? And if there was

1545
01:26:19.960 --> 01:26:23.640
<v Speaker 1>something you could change, what would you do differently. There's

1546
01:26:23.680 --> 01:26:27.359
<v Speaker 1>a lot of things that I would change and do

1547
01:26:27.439 --> 01:26:28.319
<v Speaker 1>differently if I could.

1548
01:26:31.640 --> 01:26:32.920
<v Speaker 2>And this is kind of.

1549
01:26:35.560 --> 01:26:39.199
<v Speaker 1>Kind of a contradictive thing, because one of the most

1550
01:26:39.239 --> 01:26:43.159
<v Speaker 1>important things, whenever I think it, looking for sasquatch is

1551
01:26:45.199 --> 01:26:51.640
<v Speaker 1>actually learning about the environment and allowing yourself to truly

1552
01:26:51.800 --> 01:26:57.560
<v Speaker 1>observe what's around you in your surroundings. And you can't

1553
01:26:57.600 --> 01:27:02.039
<v Speaker 1>do that if you're out there looking for bigfoot. If

1554
01:27:02.039 --> 01:27:05.680
<v Speaker 1>you're trying desperately to get a siding or record a

1555
01:27:05.800 --> 01:27:10.079
<v Speaker 1>vocal or get video or get a photo, and you're

1556
01:27:10.159 --> 01:27:14.199
<v Speaker 1>hauling all this equipment out there, it's probably not gonna happen.

1557
01:27:15.520 --> 01:27:19.439
<v Speaker 1>It's whenever you just go out there and become one

1558
01:27:19.479 --> 01:27:22.800
<v Speaker 1>with the environment. As cliche as it sounds, leave all

1559
01:27:22.840 --> 01:27:27.319
<v Speaker 1>that stuff behind you and just allow yourself to experience

1560
01:27:27.560 --> 01:27:33.039
<v Speaker 1>nature and what's going on. That's when you start noticing things. Unfortunately,

1561
01:27:34.159 --> 01:27:37.119
<v Speaker 1>the other aspect of that is you don't get that

1562
01:27:37.199 --> 01:27:38.239
<v Speaker 1>proof that you're looking for.

1563
01:27:38.319 --> 01:27:40.520
<v Speaker 2>You don't get to get the video, you know.

1564
01:27:40.960 --> 01:27:43.439
<v Speaker 1>And that's one of the things that I would change

1565
01:27:43.560 --> 01:27:47.600
<v Speaker 1>is documenting everything that I did, recording everything on video,

1566
01:27:48.720 --> 01:27:52.199
<v Speaker 1>taking photos of everything, so a lot of stuff wouldn't

1567
01:27:52.319 --> 01:27:53.279
<v Speaker 1>just be stories.

1568
01:27:53.840 --> 01:27:54.039
<v Speaker 2>You know.

1569
01:27:54.119 --> 01:27:57.560
<v Speaker 1>If I could go back specifically to that day whenever

1570
01:27:57.640 --> 01:27:59.520
<v Speaker 1>I first saw one for the first time through the

1571
01:27:59.600 --> 01:28:03.039
<v Speaker 1>night vision, man, it would have been nice to, you know,

1572
01:28:03.560 --> 01:28:06.840
<v Speaker 1>take video, even if it's through the night vision scope

1573
01:28:06.920 --> 01:28:10.439
<v Speaker 1>or something, do something, call attention to it, blast it

1574
01:28:10.479 --> 01:28:13.600
<v Speaker 1>with a spotlight. But you don't do that sort of thing,

1575
01:28:13.760 --> 01:28:16.920
<v Speaker 1>especially whenever you're like actually in a situation where one

1576
01:28:16.960 --> 01:28:20.079
<v Speaker 1>of these things is around. I don't care who you are,

1577
01:28:20.239 --> 01:28:24.720
<v Speaker 1>it's extremely difficult to get your mind anywhere. But in

1578
01:28:24.800 --> 01:28:29.600
<v Speaker 1>shock of what you're observing, it's everything goes right out

1579
01:28:29.640 --> 01:28:32.720
<v Speaker 1>the window as soon as the shit starts to go down,

1580
01:28:33.119 --> 01:28:33.319
<v Speaker 1>you know.

1581
01:28:33.920 --> 01:28:37.119
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, I would think that the things that I would

1582
01:28:37.119 --> 01:28:40.680
<v Speaker 4>have changed because when I first started with the TBRC.

1583
01:28:40.840 --> 01:28:42.720
<v Speaker 4>I thought this was the flesh and blood, and I

1584
01:28:42.880 --> 01:28:45.960
<v Speaker 4>just thought it was an ape and I just that's

1585
01:28:46.119 --> 01:28:49.960
<v Speaker 4>just what I thought. And I didn't I didn't learn

1586
01:28:49.960 --> 01:28:52.720
<v Speaker 4>where the water ways were. I didn't I didn't learn

1587
01:28:52.760 --> 01:28:55.560
<v Speaker 4>what game was in the area. I didn't learn what

1588
01:28:55.800 --> 01:28:58.880
<v Speaker 4>the game we're eating. Because if I would go back

1589
01:28:58.920 --> 01:29:01.079
<v Speaker 4>in time now, I would do all that. I'd find

1590
01:29:01.079 --> 01:29:05.479
<v Speaker 4>out what's in the area, what's moving, what's active, because

1591
01:29:05.640 --> 01:29:09.000
<v Speaker 4>you know, Bigfoot to follow the game, and they also

1592
01:29:09.039 --> 01:29:11.439
<v Speaker 4>follow the game. You also got to know what's in

1593
01:29:11.479 --> 01:29:12.880
<v Speaker 4>the you know, what else is in the area. Is

1594
01:29:12.880 --> 01:29:16.359
<v Speaker 4>there a farm? Is there a fish hatchery? Is there

1595
01:29:16.680 --> 01:29:20.880
<v Speaker 4>you know, a feed store? Is there a guy growing pigs?

1596
01:29:21.560 --> 01:29:26.840
<v Speaker 4>So I why right, Yeah, the electrical ride aways, gas rideaways.

1597
01:29:27.359 --> 01:29:30.119
<v Speaker 4>I didn't do all that stuff in the past, And

1598
01:29:30.720 --> 01:29:33.199
<v Speaker 4>you know now, I that's the first thing I look

1599
01:29:33.239 --> 01:29:36.119
<v Speaker 4>for whenever I see a siding report, especially here in Texas.

1600
01:29:36.439 --> 01:29:38.279
<v Speaker 4>I go, where's a gas right away, where's the electrical

1601
01:29:38.359 --> 01:29:42.079
<v Speaker 4>ride away, where's the waterways? Where's all this stuff? And

1602
01:29:42.760 --> 01:29:46.479
<v Speaker 4>I just wish, you know, you know, I don't. You know,

1603
01:29:46.520 --> 01:29:49.600
<v Speaker 4>we don't do a lot of Bigfoot research anymore. You know,

1604
01:29:50.720 --> 01:29:55.800
<v Speaker 4>we just don't. And I'm not gonna say so. We

1605
01:29:55.800 --> 01:29:58.479
<v Speaker 4>don't do a lot of that stuff anymore. But you know, Matt,

1606
01:29:58.600 --> 01:30:01.359
<v Speaker 4>you know, because like we kind of deserve what other

1607
01:30:01.399 --> 01:30:04.000
<v Speaker 4>people do, and we kind of like critique them, you know,

1608
01:30:04.039 --> 01:30:07.359
<v Speaker 4>from time to times, and we say, Okay, they're doing this.

1609
01:30:07.600 --> 01:30:11.520
<v Speaker 4>We did this back then, and you know, like like

1610
01:30:11.600 --> 01:30:15.520
<v Speaker 4>the stuff I know now, like uh, what's the name

1611
01:30:15.600 --> 01:30:19.840
<v Speaker 4>game camps or cam trackers. That's that's like a deterrent.

1612
01:30:19.880 --> 01:30:22.039
<v Speaker 4>I didn't know that back then. I just thought we

1613
01:30:22.159 --> 01:30:24.239
<v Speaker 4>put them up, we can catch a bigfoot. But no,

1614
01:30:24.439 --> 01:30:27.880
<v Speaker 4>they avoid them. I don't why. I don't know. It's

1615
01:30:27.920 --> 01:30:30.239
<v Speaker 4>like a like a deterrent now. So it's most of

1616
01:30:30.239 --> 01:30:33.319
<v Speaker 4>the stuff I know now. I wish I had known

1617
01:30:33.399 --> 01:30:36.880
<v Speaker 4>back then, you know. So I'll just go with that.

1618
01:30:37.399 --> 01:30:39.840
<v Speaker 1>I think another big aspect of it that I would

1619
01:30:39.880 --> 01:30:42.960
<v Speaker 1>change is I would quit. I would unplug from the Internet,

1620
01:30:43.079 --> 01:30:46.840
<v Speaker 1>you know, I would quit having all these outside sources

1621
01:30:46.880 --> 01:30:48.800
<v Speaker 1>telling me what is and what isn't.

1622
01:30:50.159 --> 01:30:50.479
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1623
01:30:51.640 --> 01:30:53.760
<v Speaker 1>I just think that a lot of people start off

1624
01:30:54.880 --> 01:30:59.039
<v Speaker 1>with a box because they've gone on the Internet and

1625
01:30:59.239 --> 01:31:03.079
<v Speaker 1>they've found a person or a group of people that,

1626
01:31:03.199 --> 01:31:08.800
<v Speaker 1>for whatever reason, they admire and they just start believing

1627
01:31:08.880 --> 01:31:12.399
<v Speaker 1>whatever this person says is true, and that becomes their

1628
01:31:12.399 --> 01:31:14.920
<v Speaker 1>belief system. And then they go out in the woods

1629
01:31:14.920 --> 01:31:18.239
<v Speaker 1>and they start looking for these things, and if it

1630
01:31:18.319 --> 01:31:22.840
<v Speaker 1>doesn't follow into line with what that person has taught them,

1631
01:31:23.399 --> 01:31:25.239
<v Speaker 1>then it must not be a bigfoot, it must not

1632
01:31:25.279 --> 01:31:27.800
<v Speaker 1>be true. And that's just the mindset that they have.

1633
01:31:28.640 --> 01:31:33.760
<v Speaker 1>And unfortunately that's not always the case. Most people in

1634
01:31:33.760 --> 01:31:37.720
