Don't care how you how? You holding up? 18 00:01:01.200 --> 00:01:04.640 Pretty good. It's a challenging. It's the schools up here 19 00:01:04.680 --> 00:01:08.319 were up so long for like COVID, that the kids, 20 00:01:08.359 --> 00:01:12.359 I guess are just so far behind on like social 21 00:01:12.400 --> 00:01:16.480 structure and class etiquette. And I was talking with all 22 00:01:16.480 --> 00:01:19.000 the teachers today, not all of them, but several of 23 00:01:19.000 --> 00:01:22.599 them at lunch and they were like, they said, it's 24 00:01:22.719 --> 00:01:26.200 just it's just a different ballgame, full different animal of 25 00:01:26.200 --> 00:01:28.680 the kids now that two years, especially at this age, 26 00:01:28.879 --> 00:01:31.519 I was in fifth grade the day because I roam 27 00:01:31.879 --> 00:01:33.799 and I was in the fifth grade class, and so 28 00:01:33.840 --> 00:01:37.840 those kids missed, you know, like first second grade, like 29 00:01:37.920 --> 00:01:40.680 they just were at home, like learning over zoom and zoom. Like, 30 00:01:40.719 --> 00:01:42.400 you know, trying to keep a six or seven year 31 00:01:42.400 --> 00:01:45.560 old focus on a zoom call for seven hours a day. 32 00:01:45.560 --> 00:01:51.879 Whatever it was, I guess didn't really bad classroom decorum 33 00:01:51.959 --> 00:01:52.879 and such. 34 00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:56.480 No, no, trying to keep three guys in their forties 35 00:01:56.519 --> 00:01:59.719 and fifties focused on a zoom callege. 36 00:02:01.400 --> 00:02:04.959 Yeah, says our producer. Right, well, you know, I really 37 00:02:04.959 --> 00:02:07.439 feel like I really feel like I probably got out 38 00:02:07.439 --> 00:02:09.199 of teaching at a really good time, and I think 39 00:02:09.280 --> 00:02:13.159 today's teachers I haven't taught since before finding Bigfoot. Of course, 40 00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:15.759 my last year in the classroom was twenty ten. I 41 00:02:15.800 --> 00:02:19.080 believe you teach every day, Cliff, I do. It's different. 42 00:02:19.120 --> 00:02:21.280 It's different though I don't. I don't wrangle a group 43 00:02:21.319 --> 00:02:23.080 of thirty of them or twenty five or thirty of 44 00:02:23.159 --> 00:02:25.960 them every single day. And it's just a different gig now. 45 00:02:26.439 --> 00:02:28.960 Especially with COVID taking a break, you know, out of 46 00:02:29.000 --> 00:02:30.400 their education for a couple of. 47 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:32.639 Years, and I don't know. 48 00:02:32.719 --> 00:02:35.599 I mean, being an elementary school teacher for so long, 49 00:02:36.360 --> 00:02:38.800 I've got some pretty strong opinions about the way things go. 50 00:02:38.879 --> 00:02:42.360 And I think generally speaking, you know that we don't 51 00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:45.560 have such a terrible education system here in the United States, 52 00:02:45.560 --> 00:02:47.759 because I see the blood, sweat, and tears that these 53 00:02:47.800 --> 00:02:49.960 teachers pour into the classroom every single day. But I 54 00:02:50.000 --> 00:02:53.439 do see that teachers in the school system in general 55 00:02:53.560 --> 00:02:58.280 is very easy to throw rocks at for politicians and 56 00:02:58.319 --> 00:03:00.159 other people who are looking for a nice scape go, 57 00:03:00.240 --> 00:03:03.039 but they don't understand what goes on in the trenches 58 00:03:04.080 --> 00:03:08.879 and in the staggering challenges that teachers have to deal with. 59 00:03:09.240 --> 00:03:12.639 You know, twenty five or thirty people children coming to 60 00:03:12.680 --> 00:03:17.240 you from a variety of backgrounds and socioeconomic conditions and 61 00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:19.479 language abilities and everything like that, and you have them 62 00:03:19.479 --> 00:03:22.199 in one class and you have to perform miracles every 63 00:03:22.199 --> 00:03:25.120 single day with them, and somehow it all kind of 64 00:03:25.120 --> 00:03:28.560 works out more or less, you know, trying to address 65 00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:31.800 every single student's need. And so I'm kind of happy 66 00:03:31.800 --> 00:03:35.039 that you're in the classroom, you know, because another thing 67 00:03:35.039 --> 00:03:36.599 that you and I can share together is just like 68 00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:39.800 being veterans of that war zone, you know, and really 69 00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:40.960 it's a war of love of anything. 70 00:03:40.960 --> 00:03:41.120 You know. 71 00:03:41.159 --> 00:03:44.879 We support these students and children everything we can do 72 00:03:45.479 --> 00:03:48.680 to help them succeed and help them become better thems, 73 00:03:49.000 --> 00:03:51.520 you know, better people, true to themselves. 74 00:03:51.599 --> 00:03:54.360 You know. Yeah, it's kind of tough to keep that 75 00:03:54.520 --> 00:03:57.360 line of trying to be firm and make them do 76 00:03:57.479 --> 00:04:00.599 stuff and still be like not alienated and all that, 77 00:04:00.919 --> 00:04:02.960 because the kids there are so sense. They're like they 78 00:04:03.520 --> 00:04:05.199 you know, they got like I need my space and 79 00:04:05.199 --> 00:04:07.400 I can just walk out of a classroom, you know 80 00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:08.960 and go walk around for ten minutes. 81 00:04:09.599 --> 00:04:10.000 Yeah. 82 00:04:10.080 --> 00:04:11.879 Yeah, that that that that'd be kind of tough. But 83 00:04:11.960 --> 00:04:15.479 you know that that therein lies an opportunity for trust. 84 00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:15.759 You know. 85 00:04:15.960 --> 00:04:20.079 I have often said, I, if you want to to 86 00:04:20.160 --> 00:04:22.600 be trustworthy, you have you have to take a chance 87 00:04:22.639 --> 00:04:24.519 and trust, you know. And and and of course that 88 00:04:24.600 --> 00:04:26.279 also teaches them when they screw up, when they go 89 00:04:26.279 --> 00:04:28.040 fool around and do stuff that they shouldn't be doing. 90 00:04:28.759 --> 00:04:30.639 Then you say, okay, well here's a consequence for that. 91 00:04:31.040 --> 00:04:33.279 You know, our trust goes two ways here, and there's 92 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:37.040 consequences to, you know, not so much disobeying. You know, 93 00:04:37.120 --> 00:04:39.959 it's never that kind of teacher. But you know, we 94 00:04:40.040 --> 00:04:42.319 had an agreement. We hadn't We had a written unwritten 95 00:04:42.360 --> 00:04:44.360 contract here, and you violated it. So now there's a 96 00:04:44.360 --> 00:04:46.480 consequence to it. And if that ain't life, man, I 97 00:04:46.480 --> 00:04:48.600 don't know what is, because that's the way everything works. 98 00:04:48.800 --> 00:04:51.079 Yeah, yeah, they're I love them. They're they're great, you know, 99 00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:52.519 they're they're they're fun. 100 00:04:53.319 --> 00:04:57.839 The challenges presented to teachers and professional educators, I don't 101 00:04:57.839 --> 00:05:00.199 want to just know with the teachers, because that's only one, 102 00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:02.480 you know, one person on the team there. You know, 103 00:05:02.560 --> 00:05:05.800 professional educators like yourself, you know, going into the classrooms 104 00:05:05.800 --> 00:05:08.279 and doing this and being done in the trenches. I 105 00:05:08.319 --> 00:05:11.600 can't sing praises high enough, and I think unless you've 106 00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:15.000 been there and seen it, you're unlikely to sing praises 107 00:05:15.519 --> 00:05:18.439 in that same sort of way. But I encourage every 108 00:05:18.560 --> 00:05:22.120 parent who has a student in public school to go volunteer, 109 00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:25.600 go see what it's really like, and you know, pay 110 00:05:25.600 --> 00:05:26.000 some dues. 111 00:05:26.000 --> 00:05:30.399 I guess in some ways, especially parents need to get 112 00:05:30.439 --> 00:05:31.920 in there and see what's going on. I know a 113 00:05:31.920 --> 00:05:33.600 lot of them are too busy and jobs and this 114 00:05:33.680 --> 00:05:35.519 and that. But they can take a day off once 115 00:05:35.560 --> 00:05:37.439 in a while and get in there at least once 116 00:05:37.480 --> 00:05:40.120 a year, you know, get in there with your kid 117 00:05:40.199 --> 00:05:41.759 and see what's shaken. 118 00:05:42.399 --> 00:05:46.240 Oh and also you know, there's really strong research that 119 00:05:46.879 --> 00:05:52.279 shows a direct correlation between parent involvement and student performance essentially, 120 00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:54.680 so even I mean I've said that to my parents 121 00:05:54.720 --> 00:05:57.040 all the time parent conferences or whatever. So yeah, seeving 122 00:05:57.040 --> 00:06:00.279 committed the classroom, do something involved with the school, show 123 00:06:00.360 --> 00:06:03.079 up because if you show up, that shows your student, 124 00:06:03.639 --> 00:06:07.360 your your child, that school is important and and you care. 125 00:06:07.439 --> 00:06:11.319 The family cares about it. So yeah, I think every 126 00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:15.120 parent should be involved to some degree. You know, you 127 00:06:15.120 --> 00:06:16.800 don't have to be in the classroom every week or 128 00:06:16.839 --> 00:06:18.439 something like that, but you know if you can come, 129 00:06:19.160 --> 00:06:21.639 you know, once a month or something even coming by 130 00:06:21.639 --> 00:06:24.600 the school, that that that actually literally will help your 131 00:06:24.639 --> 00:06:30.959 students perform better. Simple, the simplest things, man, the simplest 132 00:06:30.959 --> 00:06:34.360 things improve a student's likelihood of success. You know, in 133 00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:36.639 the school labyrinth that all of us are kind of 134 00:06:36.639 --> 00:06:39.399 put through. Anyway, we stop to hear you that you're 135 00:06:39.399 --> 00:06:40.319 digging your job. 136 00:06:40.920 --> 00:06:44.079 Yeah, yeah, it's it's rewarding. 137 00:06:44.199 --> 00:06:44.680 It really is. 138 00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:46.800 And you know, what and students out there. I'm sure 139 00:06:46.839 --> 00:06:48.759 we have a lot of young listeners as well. If 140 00:06:48.800 --> 00:06:52.800 you can navigate the labyrinth of education, you too can 141 00:06:52.839 --> 00:06:54.560 have a big Foot podcast with one of your best 142 00:06:54.560 --> 00:06:57.519 friends and earn beer money on it. 143 00:06:57.720 --> 00:06:59.439 Young people aren't earning beer money. 144 00:06:59.240 --> 00:07:01.759 Cliff now, because they're way better at social media than 145 00:07:01.759 --> 00:07:03.000 we are. They're probably earning a living. 146 00:07:07.560 --> 00:07:10.680 So I got some listener questions line. 147 00:07:10.480 --> 00:07:12.720 The Yeah it is that day. It's the Q and 148 00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:14.959 A Day, my favorite of the month as far as 149 00:07:14.959 --> 00:07:17.800 podcasting goes, where we get to get questions directly from 150 00:07:17.920 --> 00:07:21.759 our listeners and of course you guys listening out there. 151 00:07:21.759 --> 00:07:23.680 You can submit questions to us anything you want to know. 152 00:07:23.720 --> 00:07:26.000 It doesn't have to be Bigfoot related. Most questions seem 153 00:07:26.040 --> 00:07:27.759 to be, but it doesn't have to be. It's not 154 00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:30.720 like we're a one dimensional kind of people up here. 155 00:07:30.759 --> 00:07:33.399 You know, we're not one dimensional folks. We do other 156 00:07:33.480 --> 00:07:36.319 things in our life, have other interests as well, just Bigfoot. 157 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:38.399 It seems to be our favorite. So you can ask 158 00:07:38.480 --> 00:07:41.600 us questions. You can either write us or you can 159 00:07:42.160 --> 00:07:45.399 actually call us and leave a message, which is always 160 00:07:45.399 --> 00:07:47.879 a lot of fun. And Matt Prue will put the 161 00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:50.600 links to those kind of things down in the show notes, 162 00:07:50.639 --> 00:07:53.439 so feel free to check those out. Should we start 163 00:07:53.439 --> 00:07:55.199 with a call though, bobes, what do you think? 164 00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:57.199 Oh, you know what, I was just gonna say, Prue, 165 00:07:58.399 --> 00:08:00.560 I'm not sure what's part of when in, But when 166 00:08:00.600 --> 00:08:02.920 I told that ghost story from Hawaii about the big 167 00:08:02.959 --> 00:08:06.600 party at a pipeline, I actually found some pictures from 168 00:08:07.199 --> 00:08:09.560 from the party. I was going to send them to post. 169 00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:12.519 Oh, let's do it. That reminds me. We got an 170 00:08:12.560 --> 00:08:15.800 email from a listener named Christian who wrote to say 171 00:08:15.839 --> 00:08:19.319 that he loved Bobo's North Shore ghost story and said 172 00:08:19.319 --> 00:08:21.759 that Volcom House in the early two thousands was an 173 00:08:21.839 --> 00:08:22.800 exclusive spot. 174 00:08:23.519 --> 00:08:27.000 Yeah, I was, Well, Bobo was an exclusive guest there 175 00:08:27.040 --> 00:08:28.360 you go see us. So somebody knew what kind of 176 00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:32.320 what you were talking about at the Vulcom House. Vulcm House, 177 00:08:32.360 --> 00:08:33.039 I don't know.

So I just 179 00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:35.960 sit back and listen. 180 00:08:36.399 --> 00:08:39.200 It's just a clothing company that had like has a 181 00:08:39.240 --> 00:08:41.519 diamond kind of shape logo. 182 00:08:42.279 --> 00:08:45.039 I just listened to your verbage cascade over my years 183 00:08:45.080 --> 00:08:47.519 and tickle my brain. I don't know what's going on. 184 00:08:47.639 --> 00:08:48.000 Hey, Matt. 185 00:08:48.039 --> 00:08:50.919 Did we get any other fun feedback from any of 186 00:08:50.919 --> 00:08:51.600 those episodes? 187 00:08:52.120 --> 00:08:54.159 Oh yeah, there was a message here from a listener 188 00:08:54.240 --> 00:08:56.159 named Brodie who says he's been a big fan for 189 00:08:56.200 --> 00:08:58.960 a long time and said that he loved the ghost 190 00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:01.879 Stories episode, thought it was a great idea, and said, 191 00:09:02.120 --> 00:09:04.159 I love hearing ghost stories from anyone, but from Bobo 192 00:09:04.200 --> 00:09:06.679 and Cliff is really such a treat. Can can we 193 00:09:06.720 --> 00:09:09.159 do this every year? And I think that should be 194 00:09:09.200 --> 00:09:09.519 the case. 195 00:09:09.559 --> 00:09:09.639 Now. 196 00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:11.080 I don't know if you guys will have any new 197 00:09:11.120 --> 00:09:13.320 ghost stories by next year, but I'm certain we could 198 00:09:13.320 --> 00:09:16.639 do ghost themed episodes. We've done ghost or spooky themed 199 00:09:16.679 --> 00:09:19.240 episodes for Halloween for the last couple of years, so 200 00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:21.279 we can keep that trend going for sure. 201 00:09:21.799 --> 00:09:24.720 Oh you know, speaking of spooky stuff, Bob, but you 202 00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:26.480 saw the picture I sent you of Greg and Dana 203 00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:30.200 Nwkirk coming to the museum. Yeah, Oh, what a pleasure 204 00:09:30.240 --> 00:09:32.960 it was to connect back with them again. By the way, Yeah, 205 00:09:33.200 --> 00:09:37.440 I miss those guys, really really really nice folks. Yeah, 206 00:09:36.480 --> 00:09:40.679 they came in with a couple of their friends and 207 00:09:40.720 --> 00:09:41.960 they were they were very, very. 208 00:09:41.840 --> 00:09:42.840 Impressed with the museum. 209 00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:44.799 They had I guess a gig in town or something 210 00:09:44.799 --> 00:09:47.519 and they're on they do a tour now because they 211 00:09:47.519 --> 00:09:51.120 have a very very strong Patreon, you know, membership sort 212 00:09:51.159 --> 00:09:53.240 of thing that they do when they do like I 213 00:09:53.279 --> 00:09:54.559 don't know what they do because I'm not a member 214 00:09:54.600 --> 00:09:56.559 or anything, but I know they do like member meetings 215 00:09:56.639 --> 00:09:58.360 kind of like I do at the museum, and they 216 00:09:58.399 --> 00:10:00.960 do like they used to do, like Witchy Thing of 217 00:10:01.000 --> 00:10:02.960 the Month club or something like that. They've got a 218 00:10:02.960 --> 00:10:08.200 lot of really interesting and creative ways to please their patrons, 219 00:10:08.240 --> 00:10:10.720 you know. But they also do a podcast now, and 220 00:10:11.279 --> 00:10:12.600 what a pleasure it was. I think they had a 221 00:10:12.679 --> 00:10:16.120 very very successful gig and they're singing the praises of 222 00:10:16.159 --> 00:10:18.919 the museum. So Greg and Dana sure appreciate that. In fact, 223 00:10:18.919 --> 00:10:22.320 when Greg and Dana were at the museum, some customers 224 00:10:22.360 --> 00:10:25.039 came in. They're like pointing over to where we're standing, 225 00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:27.919 like and I'm thinking, of course, like, oh, they recognized me. 226 00:10:28.120 --> 00:10:29.960 Now they didn't recognize me. They recognized Greg and Dana. 227 00:10:29.960 --> 00:10:31.720 They didn't know who I was, which is awesome. And 228 00:10:31.759 --> 00:10:33.639 then they came over and they took pictures with Greg 229 00:10:33.639 --> 00:10:38.519 and Dana. That's hilarious, super funny, super funny because you know, 230 00:10:38.559 --> 00:10:40.639 at the museum. I'm kind of used to being recognized, 231 00:10:40.679 --> 00:10:43.000 and so probably the only place I am recognized nowadays, 232 00:10:43.000 --> 00:10:46.399 honestly because people know I own it or whatever. So 233 00:10:46.759 --> 00:10:49.440 I thought that was awesome, pulling the rug out of 234 00:10:49.639 --> 00:10:53.000 from underneath my what's left and my ego. Yeah, but 235 00:10:53.120 --> 00:10:54.759 what a pleasure it was to hang out with them. 236 00:10:55.080 --> 00:10:57.639 So and of course hats off to them. You know 237 00:10:57.639 --> 00:10:59.799 why they're so great too, to me at least, is 238 00:10:59.799 --> 00:11:03.600 that they're the only paranormal sort of folks that are 239 00:11:03.639 --> 00:11:06.639 out there and saying, you know what, you're just projecting 240 00:11:06.679 --> 00:11:09.159 that onto an experience is probably not paranormal at all, 241 00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:11.320 or they I've also seen them say well, there's a 242 00:11:11.320 --> 00:11:14.039 whole lot of mental illness in the paranormal community, you know, 243 00:11:14.080 --> 00:11:16.440 and stuff like that, like really kind of harsh critiques 244 00:11:16.480 --> 00:11:19.000 of the community that they're bathing in. And I've said 245 00:11:19.039 --> 00:11:21.120 similar things about the Bigfoot community and stuff. And of 246 00:11:21.159 --> 00:11:23.840 course I get a lot of like poop flick at 247 00:11:23.879 --> 00:11:26.200 me because of that, but I'm sure they do as well. 248 00:11:26.480 --> 00:11:29.799 But they're the ones out there who are full on 249 00:11:29.799 --> 00:11:32.240 one hundred and ten percent paranormal, but out there with 250 00:11:32.279 --> 00:11:35.080 a very very skeptical eye and saying that, you know what, 251 00:11:35.279 --> 00:11:37.440 so much of this paranormal stuff seems to be just 252 00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:41.919 psychology and projection, even though other real paranormal things happen. 253 00:11:42.360 --> 00:11:44.039 Yeah, we had them on the show, right, didn't we 254 00:11:44.039 --> 00:11:46.559 have them on like early on? Yeah? Yeah. 255 00:11:46.559 --> 00:11:47.960 They were great guests, of course, and they have their 256 00:11:48.000 --> 00:11:51.519 own podcast too. It might add a Haunted Objects podcast. 257 00:11:51.519 --> 00:11:54.960 Yeah, because that's the mobile museum that travel their traveling museums. 258 00:11:55.039 --> 00:11:57.559 It's like Haunted Objects. Yeah. 259 00:11:57.720 --> 00:11:59.320 I'm encouraging them to make a brick and mortar. 260 00:11:59.440 --> 00:11:59.840 I hope they do. 261 00:12:00.519 --> 00:12:03.919 Now there road Dogs, Yeah, they are, they're they're they're warriors, 262 00:12:03.919 --> 00:12:06.240 man of what they do, traveling around doing this stuff. 263 00:12:06.559 --> 00:12:08.559 But they sold out. I mean there's a little theater 264 00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:10.279 over in albert I don't know how little it is. 265 00:12:10.440 --> 00:12:12.919 I've never been there, but they were they sold the 266 00:12:12.960 --> 00:12:15.879 place out like quite a bit in advance as well. 267 00:12:15.960 --> 00:12:19.039 So and uh they of course Melissa and I were 268 00:12:19.039 --> 00:12:21.080 invited to go down as their guests, but we we 269 00:12:21.120 --> 00:12:23.320 just couldn't get out our dogs. So Chie she's been 270 00:12:23.399 --> 00:12:26.840 kind of going through some medical stuff lately, and she 271 00:12:26.919 --> 00:12:29.240 had gone to the vet twice in one week, and 272 00:12:30.200 --> 00:12:32.679 you know, and one of one of which was the 273 00:12:32.759 --> 00:12:34.960 very same day, so we didn't want to like leave 274 00:12:35.000 --> 00:12:37.440 her and stress her out even more, so we decided 275 00:12:37.480 --> 00:12:39.840 to stay home. And unfortunate because I would have loved 276 00:12:39.840 --> 00:12:41.240 to see in greg A Dana's show and the thing 277 00:12:41.320 --> 00:12:43.720 they have going. I've heard great reports about it, though 278 00:12:43.720 --> 00:12:45.960 it's kind of like very feel good sort of positive 279 00:12:46.000 --> 00:12:50.799 thing centered around empowering their their their audience, I guess, 280 00:12:50.919 --> 00:12:52.559 you know, to do their own investigations. I wish I 281 00:12:52.559 --> 00:12:53.159 could have seen it. 282 00:12:53.639 --> 00:12:55.840 So she must be in bad shape with melissaus that. 283 00:12:56.720 --> 00:12:59.200 She's probably gonna have to have her thumb amputated, you know, 284 00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:01.879 her dew claw, the big infection, and there's a tumor 285 00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:03.519 in it and stuff they're seeing if it's cancer is 286 00:13:03.519 --> 00:13:05.679 there's things going on with soci. I've got that she's 287 00:13:05.679 --> 00:13:07.559 got some issues right now, and I'm of course we're 288 00:13:07.559 --> 00:13:10.159 devastated about it, but you know, so she's our everything, 289 00:13:10.240 --> 00:13:13.200 you know, so we're kind of like wading through the 290 00:13:13.320 --> 00:13:17.399 veterinarian pool at this moment. So, yeah, she goes under 291 00:13:17.399 --> 00:13:19.720 the knife this weekend on Sunday. 292 00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:20.200 We had it. 293 00:13:20.240 --> 00:13:21.840 We was scheduled for later in the month, but when 294 00:13:21.840 --> 00:13:23.519 the surgeon saw it, she she goes, you know, we 295 00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:25.279 need to do this sooner rather than later. Let's get 296 00:13:25.279 --> 00:13:27.960 this taken care of. So she's gonna go. We're gonna 297 00:13:27.960 --> 00:13:31.320 go cut off her dew claw, her thumb basically on Sunday, 298 00:13:32.080 --> 00:13:34.559 and god, I mean, her handwriting is terrible now, I 299 00:13:34.559 --> 00:13:36.279 can't imagine what it's going to be after she loses. 300 00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:41.559 So and keeping with the spooky theme, I'll pull one 301 00:13:41.559 --> 00:13:43.279 of the questions out of order because one of the 302 00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:45.120 questions was about that. But I will say too, we 303 00:13:45.600 --> 00:13:50.360 did that great Halloween release members only episode and people 304 00:13:50.480 --> 00:13:53.759 really really love that, which reminded me if you're thinking 305 00:13:53.759 --> 00:13:56.919 about becoming a member, dear listener, we now offer annual 306 00:13:56.960 --> 00:13:59.480 memberships and that's at ten percent off, so you're you're 307 00:13:59.519 --> 00:14:01.799 going to get like a pretty good discount. There a 308 00:14:01.879 --> 00:14:05.120 ten percent discount to do an annual membership. And then, 309 00:14:05.600 --> 00:14:08.559 like I said in the prelude to last week's episode, 310 00:14:08.600 --> 00:14:11.279 if you're an Apple user, make sure if you're about 311 00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:13.320 to become a member, that you sign up either through 312 00:14:13.360 --> 00:14:16.480 your web browser or your mobile browser, because now Apple 313 00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:19.320 is imposing a fee on anything that's signed up through 314 00:14:19.399 --> 00:14:22.279 the app and their app store, and we don't want 315 00:14:22.279 --> 00:14:23.840 you to have to pay that fee. It's a thirty 316 00:14:23.879 --> 00:14:26.919 percent fee. We don't get any of that. Patreon doesn't 317 00:14:26.919 --> 00:14:29.559 get any of that. Only Apple does, and so there's 318 00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:33.360 no need to give them additional money. So ten percent 319 00:14:33.399 --> 00:14:36.279 discount's now available for annual memberships. And if you're thinking 320 00:14:36.279 --> 00:14:38.720 about becoming a member and you're an Apple listener, just 321 00:14:38.759 --> 00:14:41.240 sign up at the link in the show notes using 322 00:14:41.320 --> 00:14:43.279 Safari or whatever your web browser is. 323 00:14:45.279 --> 00:14:48.679 Stay tuned for more Bigfoot and Beyond with Cliff and Bobo. 324 00:14:48.879 --> 00:14:50.679 We'll be right back after these messages. 325 00:14:57.000 --> 00:14:59.559 This question came in. We'll jump out of order here 326 00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:02.159 starting with the voicemail. Since we were talking about the 327 00:15:02.360 --> 00:15:05.039 Halloween episode. I really thought this was fun, and so 328 00:15:05.720 --> 00:15:07.000 we'll pop this one in first. 329 00:15:07.240 --> 00:15:09.120 Okay, I see my name in capitol letters here. I'll 330 00:15:09.120 --> 00:15:12.559 go ahead and read this one. Bobes all right, Jen Serrata, 331 00:15:12.759 --> 00:15:16.039 I think, says Cliff. I just listened to your Halloween episode. 332 00:15:16.080 --> 00:15:18.399 This has nothing to do with Bigfoot, But I too 333 00:15:18.440 --> 00:15:20.279 have seen a seven foot tall easter bunny when I 334 00:15:20.279 --> 00:15:22.919 was seven years old. I have told no one, not 335 00:15:23.000 --> 00:15:25.759 even my husband of twenty five years. Please tell me 336 00:15:25.799 --> 00:15:27.799 the bunny you saw was pink and white. 337 00:15:28.320 --> 00:15:30.399 I need to know I'm not alone. 338 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:33.360 I don't you know what. Honestly, it was dark, so 339 00:15:33.720 --> 00:15:36.559 everything in the dark is kind of like black and whitish, 340 00:15:36.960 --> 00:15:39.159 and actually my memory of it is also black and white. 341 00:15:39.159 --> 00:15:41.080 Now that I'm looking at it, I kind of got 342 00:15:41.120 --> 00:15:45.120 the impression it was yellowish, but that's probably from outside sources, 343 00:15:45.799 --> 00:15:47.960 because wasn't that a rabbit and Winnie the Pooh like 344 00:15:48.039 --> 00:15:51.519 yellowish and I kind of always associated that rabbit. I 345 00:15:51.519 --> 00:15:54.200 think there was a rabbit in that as Easter buddy, 346 00:15:54.240 --> 00:15:57.360 So I can't say for sure, Jen if it was 347 00:15:57.879 --> 00:16:00.480 pink and white. I remember it was quite large, and 348 00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:03.639 it was at least the size of the door. It's 349 00:16:03.879 --> 00:16:07.639 the door frame itself, you know. And I was younger 350 00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:09.600 than seven. I have to tell you that I was 351 00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:13.799 probably two or three or so. I've got and you 352 00:16:13.799 --> 00:16:16.519 know how memories are from that, you know, that long ago, 353 00:16:16.559 --> 00:16:18.559 that stage in your life. They're all pretty wonky, they're 354 00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:21.639 all pretty psychedelic, you know. I don't know what color 355 00:16:21.639 --> 00:16:23.679 it was. I wish I had something for you. 356 00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:25.360 On that one, but but. 357 00:16:25.320 --> 00:16:28.000 It's nice to know that I'm not alone. So I 358 00:16:28.840 --> 00:16:31.679 suspect there wasn't a seven foot tall bipedal rabbit in 359 00:16:31.679 --> 00:16:33.519 my parents' house when I was at age. I suspect 360 00:16:33.559 --> 00:16:37.200 it's just some weird, trippy little kid thing, you know. 361 00:16:37.679 --> 00:16:39.679 The bunny Man, Bubble shut the Bundy Man. 362 00:16:40.120 --> 00:16:41.919 Now there you go. Yeah, yeah, to talk about the 363 00:16:42.080 --> 00:16:44.879 South Park episode that we were we were guests on, 364 00:16:44.960 --> 00:16:46.759 even though we didn't get to do the voices, they 365 00:16:47.000 --> 00:16:48.759 took our faces and put it on South Park. I 366 00:16:48.759 --> 00:16:50.000 assume everybody knows about that. 367 00:16:50.080 --> 00:16:52.879 But I love all the Bobo lines, like when the 368 00:16:52.919 --> 00:16:58.919 Bubo character says, Bobo thing scary, shut up for the 369 00:16:58.960 --> 00:17:02.000 money Baker guys like use the therm milivager and it 370 00:17:02.120 --> 00:17:05.839 shows that the Bobo character goes it got all orange e. 371 00:17:08.000 --> 00:17:09.759 All right for that's enough Bobo. 372 00:17:09.839 --> 00:17:11.200 Can you watch that and laugh? Now? 373 00:17:11.759 --> 00:17:14.599 Yeah, yeah, I get a little mad, but I think 374 00:17:14.759 --> 00:17:18.079 it's it's an epic episode. I mean, without without anything, 375 00:17:18.119 --> 00:17:19.880 without nothing to do with it, it's still It's just 376 00:17:20.079 --> 00:17:21.720 I love anything to do with Cartman, and that's a 377 00:17:21.799 --> 00:17:22.359 Cartman one. 378 00:17:22.480 --> 00:17:25.759 So they did watch the Bobo character. The Bobo character 379 00:17:25.799 --> 00:17:28.279 should have been more like, you know, like dude, what 380 00:17:28.680 --> 00:17:32.759 you know, like a charismatic and assertive and you know 381 00:17:33.279 --> 00:17:36.839 southern California. Yeah, I'm missing words here because I've been 382 00:17:36.920 --> 00:17:40.319 up since like three fifteen this morning. But you know, 383 00:17:40.519 --> 00:17:45.720 just that sort of like hyper assertive, real charismatic, not 384 00:17:45.839 --> 00:17:48.759 just southern California, but you know, like, come on, guys, 385 00:17:48.839 --> 00:17:51.200 let's go like taking charge of things, not just kind 386 00:17:51.200 --> 00:17:54.240 of a sheepish only ways, because that's totally not Bobo 387 00:17:54.319 --> 00:17:57.480 at all. So they missed that completely and. 388 00:17:57.440 --> 00:17:59.440 They made money. They can look great and ren they 389 00:17:59.480 --> 00:18:01.079 didn't talk Cliff was normal. 390 00:18:01.599 --> 00:18:03.519 Yeah, they didn't say one word and the whole thing. 391 00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:05.480 No, that was hilarious. 392 00:18:07.000 --> 00:18:09.559 She said she got off lucky. Some suggested it might 393 00:18:09.599 --> 00:18:11.559 be a critique itself. I don't know. 394 00:18:11.880 --> 00:18:14.480 Yeah, well so I need to Yeah, that's how they 395 00:18:14.480 --> 00:18:16.440 take it. It was more like they weren't They weren't 396 00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:20.440 letting her slide. It was kind of like an underhanded slide. 397 00:18:21.039 --> 00:18:24.400 I would say the primo version of Bobo on screen 398 00:18:24.680 --> 00:18:28.119 is the Sagot episode. Once again, I would encourage all 399 00:18:28.200 --> 00:18:30.440 listeners to go listen to that, or go back and 400 00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:33.559 listen to our recap of that in Memoriam of Bob Saggat. 401 00:18:33.599 --> 00:18:35.920
