We 41 00:02:24.439 --> 00:02:26.879 have surpassed the five hundred episode Mark, and I have 42 00:02:26.960 --> 00:02:29.039 to be honest with you, none of that would be 43 00:02:29.080 --> 00:02:32.280 possible without you. Guys. I could create all the episodes 44 00:02:32.280 --> 00:02:34.159 in the world, but if there's nobody to listen to them, 45 00:02:34.439 --> 00:02:37.000 it doesn't make a bit of difference. So I cannot 46 00:02:37.000 --> 00:02:39.080 thank you enough for everything you have done for me 47 00:02:39.280 --> 00:02:42.840 from my family and you continue to do for this show. 48 00:02:43.159 --> 00:02:45.800 You show up week after week, you download the episodes, 49 00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:48.560 you hit that subscribe button, You keep this train on 50 00:02:48.639 --> 00:02:51.039 its tracks, and I am so looking forward to the 51 00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:54.199 next five hundred episodes. So, without further ado, let's get 52 00:02:54.240 --> 00:02:56.120 into this live. All this is left for you to 53 00:02:56.159 --> 00:03:19.879 do is sit back, relax, and enjoy the show.

You can do it too, Yeah, let me 58 00:03:34.759 --> 00:03:37.159 see if I can do it. No, my heart looks. 59 00:03:37.159 --> 00:03:38.759 Your heart looks like a punkin honey. 60 00:03:38.960 --> 00:03:42.000 Yeah, my heart is cold and dead. That's probably a 61 00:03:42.159 --> 00:03:45.680 heart circle. Yes, I'm very heartless that it's like a 62 00:03:45.719 --> 00:03:49.080 red circle around my heart. Wayne, what's up man, what's going. 63 00:03:48.919 --> 00:03:52.400 On Hey doing buddy. I am looking forward to this, 64 00:03:52.560 --> 00:03:56.879 happy to be talking about your five hundred.

Congratulations. 66 00:03:58.840 --> 00:04:01.319 I would pat myself on the I should go ahead 67 00:04:01.319 --> 00:04:03.360 and do that. Tiffany, what's going on with you? 68 00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:06.599 Not much, I can copy what Wayne is. Happy to 69 00:04:06.599 --> 00:04:10.080 be here and happy to be celebrating with you. You 70 00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:12.479 are where I began, so that's an honor. 71 00:04:12.960 --> 00:04:15.479 It is so funny to me that we're talking about 72 00:04:15.479 --> 00:04:19.639 the five hundredth episode of Sasquatch Odyssey on that Bigfoot podcast. 73 00:04:19.759 --> 00:04:21.720 I never thought this show would happen. It's one of 74 00:04:21.720 --> 00:04:23.879 the many amazing things that have come out of doing 75 00:04:23.879 --> 00:04:27.040 the Sasquatch Odyssey podcast. I think I posted the five 76 00:04:27.160 --> 00:04:31.519 hundred and third episode that will drop tomorrow on the show. 77 00:04:31.600 --> 00:04:33.800 Five hundred happened while I was actually traveling. I was 78 00:04:33.839 --> 00:04:36.680 out of town. I was out west doing some things 79 00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:40.639 in undisclosed areas with undisclosed people. It was just one 80 00:04:40.639 --> 00:04:42.920 of those things that when I did the episode, I 81 00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:45.480 was like, man, it just happened so fast. It seems 82 00:04:45.480 --> 00:04:46.920 like yesterday I started the show. 83 00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:52.839 He was shooting a porn y'all, that's what he was doing. 84 00:04:53.040 --> 00:04:59.560 Yes, Yes, undisclosed location with undisclosed people doing undisclosed things 85 00:04:59.600 --> 00:05:01.680 that we I cannot talk about, at least for a 86 00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:04.560 couple of months. We'll talk about it when it comes out. 87 00:05:04.839 --> 00:05:07.199 I want to take a second to say hello to everybody. 88 00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:09.879 It's been so long since I've done a live I 89 00:05:09.879 --> 00:05:11.600 don't even remember how to do it. But we've got 90 00:05:11.600 --> 00:05:14.120 about thirty people piling in here, so I want to 91 00:05:14.240 --> 00:05:16.759 say hello to everybody that's in the chat. Charlotte Jay 92 00:05:16.759 --> 00:05:22.639 first and foremost. Hello, my friend Ristol, Chris Blaylock. We've 93 00:05:22.680 --> 00:05:26.680 got sasquatch. Oh, that's me bff. Bigfoot research that is, 94 00:05:26.839 --> 00:05:30.199 I believe, if I'm not mistaken, that is my buddy 95 00:05:30.240 --> 00:05:34.759 from down south in Florida. Hello, my friend. Who else 96 00:05:34.800 --> 00:05:37.480 do we have in here? Let's see, let's see Jimmy 97 00:05:37.480 --> 00:05:39.639 t Oh, let's see. Let's see Jimmy T's I'm a 98 00:05:39.639 --> 00:05:41.920 poet and didn't know it. Who else we got in here? 99 00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:46.160 Matthew Maynard? Hello, sir, there is Paranormal World Productions, that 100 00:05:46.360 --> 00:05:50.319 is us. Who else did I see in here? I thought, Yeah, 101 00:05:50.360 --> 00:05:53.360 mister Tiffany, what's going on? My friend? I haven't seen 102 00:05:53.399 --> 00:05:56.759 you in a month of Sundays. Tyler, Paul, what's up, 103 00:05:57.000 --> 00:06:00.959 my friend? Say hello to Brian and Wayne and Tiffany. Tyler, 104 00:06:01.000 --> 00:06:04.040 say hello to Tiffany. Damn it, she's here. Little Matt. 105 00:06:04.079 --> 00:06:06.040 I'm not sure who you are as Big Matt in 106 00:06:06.040 --> 00:06:09.160 the house, I'm not sure who that is. Patty Troy says, hello. 107 00:06:10.079 --> 00:06:13.240 Five hundred is crazy. It does feel like you just started. 108 00:06:13.560 --> 00:06:15.519 Let me tell you, if you're the one producing those 109 00:06:15.519 --> 00:06:17.879 five hundred episodes, it definitely does not feel like you 110 00:06:18.000 --> 00:06:20.519 just started. But it is a labor of love. I 111 00:06:20.519 --> 00:06:23.240 love it very much. And I saw discovering Bigfoot in here. 112 00:06:23.279 --> 00:06:26.920 I believe, yes, that is Logan. Hello, my friend, thank 113 00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:31.160 you for the congratulations on the five hundred episodes of 114 00:06:31.199 --> 00:06:33.959 the podcast. It's probably more than five hundred, to be 115 00:06:34.000 --> 00:06:36.160 quite honest, at this point, because there are some that 116 00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:39.680 have been behind paywalls in the past and other things, 117 00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:41.920 so it's probably a little bit more than that, but 118 00:06:42.439 --> 00:06:45.319 the point still stands that it is quite the milestone. 119 00:06:45.360 --> 00:06:47.639 I actually started looking around today and I thought, I've 120 00:06:47.639 --> 00:06:49.879 talked about this in the past, about how many people, Hey, 121 00:06:49.879 --> 00:06:52.720 we got mythical legends in the house, stayed up late 122 00:06:52.759 --> 00:06:56.439 for this. That is our buddy from across the pond. 123 00:06:57.240 --> 00:07:00.000 Daniel is up way too fricking late. Does your dad? 124 00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:01.720 I know you're up. I'm going to send Kraig a 125 00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:03.319 text and tell him that you're still up. It's one 126 00:07:03.319 --> 00:07:06.879 o'clock in the morning over there. We won't tell no, 127 00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:09.439 we can't do it. I talked to him today. He 128 00:07:09.480 --> 00:07:11.759 was so excited about a couple of things that he 129 00:07:12.319 --> 00:07:13.680 called me about, and I got to see he and 130 00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:16.240 his dad today. I love those little phone calls we 131 00:07:16.279 --> 00:07:19.120 get every day. So yeah, I was looking at and 132 00:07:19.160 --> 00:07:22.399 I've talked about this before, like less than it's probably 133 00:07:22.480 --> 00:07:27.000 less than one percent of the world's population that actually 134 00:07:27.240 --> 00:07:30.480 does podcasting full time and makes a living doing it. 135 00:07:30.480 --> 00:07:33.959 It's a very small pond to be swimming in. I 136 00:07:34.319 --> 00:07:36.199 never in a million years thought that I would be 137 00:07:36.360 --> 00:07:38.560 at the point that I'm at. It's because of everybody 138 00:07:38.600 --> 00:07:41.360 who's in the chat right now, everybody who's listening, and 139 00:07:41.439 --> 00:07:44.000 we'll watch this at some point in time on YouTube 140 00:07:44.040 --> 00:07:46.800 and or listen to it on the podcast. It is 141 00:07:46.839 --> 00:07:49.319 one of those things that we couldn't do it without you. 142 00:07:49.439 --> 00:07:53.319 It's cliche to say that, but as podcasters, if you 143 00:07:53.319 --> 00:07:56.560 don't have anybody listening. You're talking to yourself, right, You're 144 00:07:56.600 --> 00:07:59.399 just doing a podcast for one basically, And that's what 145 00:07:59.439 --> 00:08:00.959 it was like when I started the show. There was 146 00:08:01.040 --> 00:08:03.920 nobody listening, and I just kept at it. I kept 147 00:08:03.920 --> 00:08:06.800 putting the episodes out because I really did enjoy doing it, 148 00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:08.600 and I still enjoy doing it to this day. I 149 00:08:08.600 --> 00:08:10.959 definitely want to get into some of that stuff later on. 150 00:08:11.000 --> 00:08:12.360 I want to talk a little bit about some of 151 00:08:12.399 --> 00:08:14.879 the relationships and some of the things that have come 152 00:08:14.920 --> 00:08:16.439 out of the show. But I want to get into 153 00:08:16.480 --> 00:08:18.800 some of the moments of the show for you guys, 154 00:08:18.839 --> 00:08:21.879 for me, and for the folks that are in the 155 00:08:21.920 --> 00:08:24.600 audience and in the chat right now. This is a 156 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:27.120 call in show. I hope people call in. That's definitely 157 00:08:27.120 --> 00:08:28.879 something we're going to do later on is open up 158 00:08:28.920 --> 00:08:31.360 the phone lines, and there's nothing worse than doing a 159 00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:34.720 live show and nobody call in. Hopefully there'll be at 160 00:08:34.799 --> 00:08:36.639 least a couple of you guys that are willing to 161 00:08:36.679 --> 00:08:38.679 call in and talk about what you like about the show, 162 00:08:38.720 --> 00:08:40.559 what you don't like. We'll talk about anything. We make 163 00:08:40.559 --> 00:08:42.559 no qualms about it here on that Bigfoot Podcast. It's 164 00:08:42.600 --> 00:08:46.039 not all love and smiles here. We talk about some 165 00:08:46.120 --> 00:08:47.759 of the things that people don't like about the show 166 00:08:47.799 --> 00:08:50.320 as well. Let me start and go around the horn 167 00:08:50.399 --> 00:08:52.879 with you, guys. Let me start with ladies first. Here, 168 00:08:53.519 --> 00:08:55.440 start with Tiffany and talk about some of the things 169 00:08:55.480 --> 00:08:57.919 that you've enjoyed about Sasquatch Out to See. We were 170 00:08:57.919 --> 00:08:59.919 talking about it before we went live, and honestly, I 171 00:09:00.039 --> 00:09:02.799 would have never met you or Wayne had it not 172 00:09:02.840 --> 00:09:05.320 been for the show, because that's where we met. Ultimately 173 00:09:05.799 --> 00:09:08.519 was you guys were guests on the podcast, and we've 174 00:09:08.519 --> 00:09:12.039 become not only friends but family outside of those appearances 175 00:09:12.080 --> 00:09:14.919 on a Bigfoot podcast. Talk a little bit about what 176 00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:18.360 got you interested in Sasquatch Outisy first, How did you 177 00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:21.240 discover the show? Tiffany, and talk about some of the 178 00:09:21.840 --> 00:09:24.360 experiences obviously from coming on and some of the things 179 00:09:24.360 --> 00:09:25.960 that you've enjoyed the most about the show Over the 180 00:09:26.039 --> 00:09:27.039 last few years. 181 00:09:27.440 --> 00:09:31.399 I scrolled through podcasts. Y'all listen to music until I'm 182 00:09:31.480 --> 00:09:33.919 just like, hey, listen to so many songs on podcasts 183 00:09:33.919 --> 00:09:35.840 when you're work, and you're just like, I don't want 184 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:38.480 to hear the shit anymore. So then you start listening 185 00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:41.720 to podcasts, you watch our episode. I've always had a 186 00:09:41.720 --> 00:09:44.720 fascination with it. I thought it was drawn to yours 187 00:09:44.960 --> 00:09:48.360 based off your logo. Really doesn't the logo, so I 188 00:09:48.399 --> 00:09:51.039 started listening to it and I never stopped. 189 00:09:51.360 --> 00:09:52.519 So then it was your. 190 00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:56.039 Voice that I was listening to when I was working 191 00:09:56.080 --> 00:09:59.279 this awful, toxic job. But it got me through my workday. 192 00:10:00.039 --> 00:10:05.320 And then Zach had his encounter here, so our episode 193 00:10:05.399 --> 00:10:10.480 two twenty two was my genesis. I got to talk 194 00:10:10.519 --> 00:10:13.960 to you, and then it was days, weeks, and months progressed. 195 00:10:13.960 --> 00:10:16.480 We became closer and started talking about. 196 00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:18.879 What I could do to help ben here around you, 197 00:10:19.480 --> 00:10:21.240 And it's just one of those things that and the 198 00:10:21.279 --> 00:10:24.840 show has evolved over the years. When you first started, 199 00:10:25.000 --> 00:10:26.360 you say it all the time. I didn't like the 200 00:10:26.360 --> 00:10:30.240 way I sounded. The interviews have definitely gotten better. You're 201 00:10:30.320 --> 00:10:32.879 good at asking questions. It's what you did when you 202 00:10:32.919 --> 00:10:37.320 were caught, so it's like second nature. But overall, as 203 00:10:37.360 --> 00:10:39.639 the years have progressed, has just gotten better and better. 204 00:10:39.879 --> 00:10:40.600 In my opinion. 205 00:10:41.120 --> 00:10:43.000 Oh, I thank you so much for that. 206 00:10:43.759 --> 00:10:44.679 No, you welcome. 207 00:10:45.320 --> 00:10:47.279 Yeah, it's one of those things that I've said that 208 00:10:47.279 --> 00:10:49.120 I've made no qualms about it. In the beginning, the 209 00:10:49.279 --> 00:10:52.679 audio quality was not great. As with most podcasters, there 210 00:10:52.679 --> 00:10:54.639 are people that I helped behind the scenes with their show. 211 00:10:54.679 --> 00:10:56.919 Now I tell them little secrets that I wish somebody 212 00:10:56.960 --> 00:10:59.600 had told me when I first started the show, and 213 00:10:59.679 --> 00:11:02.120 it immediately helps them with their audio. That's one of 214 00:11:02.159 --> 00:11:04.879 the things that I've always struggled with. I guess I'm 215 00:11:04.879 --> 00:11:07.320 a little bit. I'm definitely a perfectionist when it comes 216 00:11:07.320 --> 00:11:11.919 to my work. I've always constantly tried to improve every 217 00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:15.000 aspect of the show. One of those was getting better equipment. 218 00:11:15.039 --> 00:11:17.600 One of those was working on the audio editing, then 219 00:11:17.639 --> 00:11:20.679 getting into the interviews with folks. I've tried to do 220 00:11:20.720 --> 00:11:23.159 a better job of asking the right questions at the 221 00:11:23.240 --> 00:11:26.480 right time, not talking as much, not repeating myself as much. 222 00:11:26.559 --> 00:11:28.799 There's plenty of people who email me because I repeat 223 00:11:28.840 --> 00:11:31.000 things over and over. But it's one of those things 224 00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:33.559 that we've talked about it before when and I've had 225 00:11:33.559 --> 00:11:35.440 these conversations off air, and I've even talked about it 226 00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:38.600 on the air. Every conversation is different because it's with 227 00:11:38.679 --> 00:11:41.559 a new person that I've never talked to before. So 228 00:11:41.559 --> 00:11:43.600 when I repeat things or talk about my past and 229 00:11:43.720 --> 00:11:46.360 law enforcement or whatever the case may be, the experiences 230 00:11:46.360 --> 00:11:48.679 i've had. It's because I'm talking to a new person 231 00:11:48.720 --> 00:11:51.519 that I've never had that conversation with. It gets lost 232 00:11:51.559 --> 00:11:55.200 in translation for me because I get so engrossed in 233 00:11:55.240 --> 00:11:57.840 the conversation. It's the first time I'm having it with 234 00:11:57.840 --> 00:11:59.759 this person. I want to give them everything that i've 235 00:11:59.799 --> 00:12:02.720 hsibly can. If it's relevant, I'm going to talk about it. 236 00:12:02.720 --> 00:12:04.759 It gets a little redundant at times for people who 237 00:12:04.799 --> 00:12:07.320 listen to every episode, They're like, oh my god, here 238 00:12:07.360 --> 00:12:10.960 he goes again talking about Todd standing in Canada, or 239 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.240 he's talking about when he was a cop, or whatever 240 00:12:13.279 --> 00:12:15.679 the case may be. But if you look past that 241 00:12:16.320 --> 00:12:19.120 and just get into the meat and potatoes of the 242 00:12:19.200 --> 00:12:21.799 interaction with the person, that's what I've really tried to 243 00:12:21.879 --> 00:12:26.000 do more than anything is connect with people on a 244 00:12:26.039 --> 00:12:27.799 different level. I want to get into some of that 245 00:12:27.879 --> 00:12:29.559 later on and talk a little bit about some of 246 00:12:29.559 --> 00:12:33.840 those relationships and how that doesn't necessarily happen on every 247 00:12:33.879 --> 00:12:36.200 single podcast, because I've talked to so many people just 248 00:12:36.240 --> 00:12:38.639 over the last twelve months that have had so many 249 00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:40.799 negative experiences with other shows. We're not going to call 250 00:12:40.840 --> 00:12:42.799 anybody out. It's not going to be one of those 251 00:12:42.879 --> 00:12:44.519 kind of sessions, But I do want to talk about 252 00:12:44.519 --> 00:12:47.519 that because to me, it's important is the relationships that 253 00:12:47.519 --> 00:12:49.919 you build with the people that have come on the show. Wayne, 254 00:12:49.919 --> 00:12:52.360 What about you, man, How did you find Sasquatch Odyssey? 255 00:12:52.440 --> 00:12:54.679 Did I find you? Because I do remember calling you 256 00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:56.840 up or sending you an email and asking you to 257 00:12:56.840 --> 00:12:59.559 come on the show. Were you listening to the show? 258 00:12:59.600 --> 00:12:59.759 Then? 259 00:13:00.039 --> 00:13:01.840 How did you find the experience when you came on 260 00:13:01.879 --> 00:13:04.279 the show and we did your interview and then obviously 261 00:13:04.320 --> 00:13:05.399 what's happened afterwards. 262 00:13:05.399 --> 00:13:07.320 A lot of people don't know this, and I don't 263 00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:09.799 even know if you know all of this, Brian, because 264 00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:13.559 I've never really talked about it. Before I teamed up 265 00:13:13.559 --> 00:13:15.759 with you, I was doing my thing with Manimal Research. 266 00:13:15.840 --> 00:13:19.600 I did the YouTube channel. Right before I got with you, 267 00:13:19.879 --> 00:13:24.360 I started a podcast. It wasn't a YouTube one. It 268 00:13:24.440 --> 00:13:28.639 was with a guy who is not very popular with 269 00:13:28.720 --> 00:13:30.720 a lot of bigfoot people. That's one of the reasons 270 00:13:30.720 --> 00:13:32.960 I chose him to be my partner was he was 271 00:13:33.039 --> 00:13:34.519 very outspoken, he had it. 272 00:13:34.519 --> 00:13:35.200 Kind of a name. 273 00:13:35.320 --> 00:13:37.080 He rubbed people the wrong way. That's what I was 274 00:13:37.120 --> 00:13:40.720 looking for. He did not like you. We have talked 275 00:13:40.720 --> 00:13:43.679 about this. He did not think very highly of you 276 00:13:43.799 --> 00:13:46.080 at all. He told me a whole bunch of stuff, 277 00:13:46.679 --> 00:13:51.120 and I am guilty of listening, and I developed a 278 00:13:51.159 --> 00:13:54.759 not so great opinion of you based on what he 279 00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:57.919 was saying. Then I was given the opportunity to be 280 00:13:57.960 --> 00:14:01.159 in a movie called Bigfoot Versus Jettie, Battle of the Beasts. 281 00:14:01.600 --> 00:14:03.759 Doctor Jeff Meldrum's in there, Cliff right, man. A couple 282 00:14:03.799 --> 00:14:05.320 other people you may have heard of are in there. 283 00:14:05.320 --> 00:14:07.960 So it's something I'm proud of. I posted on Facebook 284 00:14:08.000 --> 00:14:09.399 about it, and you and I were in a couple 285 00:14:09.399 --> 00:14:10.960 of the same groups and you saw it, and that's 286 00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:13.120 when you reached out to me. And I told this 287 00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:15.720 gentleman about it, and he said, I don't know about him, man, 288 00:14:16.559 --> 00:14:19.159 I might stay away from him. I don't know. So 289 00:14:20.159 --> 00:14:21.960 he and I had a falling out a little bit. 290 00:14:22.000 --> 00:14:25.279 I reached out to you, I went on, I recorded 291 00:14:25.320 --> 00:14:28.200 that first episode and I came away shaking my head, 292 00:14:28.600 --> 00:14:30.919 What the hell is he talking about? This is one 293 00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:33.399 of the coolest dudes I've ever freaking met in my 294 00:14:33.600 --> 00:14:37.600 entire life. That first interview, before I had ever spoken 295 00:14:37.600 --> 00:14:39.360 to him. Before, I had never talked to Brian in 296 00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:42.240 my life. I came away with him, asking if he 297 00:14:42.279 --> 00:14:45.039 could come to the squatch out that I was going 298 00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:47.759 to have in a few months. He said he wanted 299 00:14:47.759 --> 00:14:50.159 to come to it. He offered to help me with 300 00:14:50.320 --> 00:14:52.840 my podcast, he said in the audio needed work. He 301 00:14:52.879 --> 00:14:54.399 offered to help me with all of that. This was 302 00:14:54.440 --> 00:14:57.279 long before he offered me the opportunity to take over 303 00:14:57.320 --> 00:15:00.120 Paran on my odyssey. But he did all of that 304 00:15:00.200 --> 00:15:03.639 after knowing him for an hour, and I just thought, man, 305 00:15:04.559 --> 00:15:07.240 it's true that old saying you don't judge a book 306 00:15:07.279 --> 00:15:10.000 by its cover, don't listen to other people, make up 307 00:15:10.039 --> 00:15:14.399 your own mind about people. Because Brian, you were everything 308 00:15:14.440 --> 00:15:17.759 opposite of what this person told me. Everything is just 309 00:15:17.799 --> 00:15:19.399 blown up since that episode. 310 00:15:19.759 --> 00:15:22.159 I am glad that happened. I'm glad that you didn't 311 00:15:22.200 --> 00:15:23.720 listen to him. I'm glad you came on the show 312 00:15:23.720 --> 00:15:26.600 because I've done it to everybody. Does that right? You 313 00:15:26.600 --> 00:15:29.720 hear about Oh that person's a horrible person. I've heard 314 00:15:29.720 --> 00:15:32.240 it about people that I am good friends with in Bigfoot. 315 00:15:32.279 --> 00:15:34.279 I still hear it to this day. Some people have 316 00:15:34.399 --> 00:15:36.559 bad experiences with people, and I'm like, I just don't 317 00:15:36.600 --> 00:15:39.559 have that experience with these people. It is one of 318 00:15:39.600 --> 00:15:41.240 those things that we are all guilty of. I think 319 00:15:41.279 --> 00:15:43.720 we all, on occasion judge books by its cover, and 320 00:15:43.759 --> 00:15:45.320 I think we need to get past that. And I'm 321 00:15:45.360 --> 00:15:46.720 glad you did. Man, it was one of the best 322 00:15:46.759 --> 00:15:49.080 things that ever happened to me. You and Tiffany both 323 00:15:49.159 --> 00:15:52.639 are amazing additions to this family. And what you guys 324 00:15:52.679 --> 00:15:54.720 have done with paran on my odyssey, it has blown 325 00:15:54.759 --> 00:15:56.559 me away and blown me out of the water. I 326 00:15:56.639 --> 00:16:00.360 thank you both for forgiving me the opportunity to not 327 00:16:00.480 --> 00:16:02.720 being an asshole. I guess is the height word. I 328 00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:05.399 don't know. It's funny. I get that from people all 329 00:16:05.440 --> 00:16:08.120 the time. They listen to the podcast and they have 330 00:16:08.240 --> 00:16:11.120 this preconceived notion about who you are, what you are 331 00:16:11.159 --> 00:16:13.679 in person. Then they meet me and they're like, man, 332 00:16:13.720 --> 00:16:15.720 I didn't expect you to be that way. What do 333 00:16:15.720 --> 00:16:18.200 you mean. I'm just a person. I am the person 334 00:16:18.200 --> 00:16:20.919 that you hear on the show at this show, my show. 335 00:16:21.159 --> 00:16:23.440 If I'm a guest on another podcast, which I do 336 00:16:23.559 --> 00:16:26.559 quite a few, I'm the same person all the time. 337 00:16:26.600 --> 00:16:28.080 It's just one of those things that I think it 338 00:16:28.360 --> 00:16:31.600 strikes people in different ways. But it happened to me 339 00:16:31.840 --> 00:16:34.240 the first time I met Bobo. The first thing Bobo 340 00:16:34.320 --> 00:16:38.639 said to me was, Man, your voice don't match what 341 00:16:38.759 --> 00:16:42.000 I was expecting. And I was like, what part doesn't match? 342 00:16:42.000 --> 00:16:46.480 He said, I expected you to be shorter. Okay, there's that. 343 00:16:47.120 --> 00:16:49.960 I guess I sound shorter. I'm not sure how you 344 00:16:50.080 --> 00:16:53.120 sound short or tall, but yeah, you just never know 345 00:16:53.159 --> 00:16:55.879 what to expect with people. I am so glad that 346 00:16:56.720 --> 00:16:58.879 you both came into my life, so many people. I 347 00:16:58.919 --> 00:17:00.440 was looking through today at it. I want to get 348 00:17:00.519 --> 00:17:03.039 sappy and go through and pull a bunch of stuff 349 00:17:03.080 --> 00:17:05.000 and play a bunch of clips and things that people 350 00:17:05.000 --> 00:17:07.599 have already heard from the show. But I got to 351 00:17:07.680 --> 00:17:09.880 looking back in the archives and I went back all 352 00:17:09.920 --> 00:17:11.839 the way to episode one of the show, and I 353 00:17:11.839 --> 00:17:15.039 started going through the episodes, and I'm thinking to myself, 354 00:17:15.599 --> 00:17:18.200 the people that I have connected with. I still talk 355 00:17:18.279 --> 00:17:20.920 to some of these people to this day. Occasionally I 356 00:17:20.960 --> 00:17:23.880 get text messages from people who were on episode seven 357 00:17:23.960 --> 00:17:27.279 and eight or nine of the show. It just blows 358 00:17:27.359 --> 00:17:30.839 me away that I still have those connections with people. 359 00:17:31.000 --> 00:17:32.759 I looked back and I had so many people on 360 00:17:32.960 --> 00:17:36.759 from locally. The first show was a roadside crossing from 361 00:17:36.839 --> 00:17:38.759 right here in North Carolina. I had kale On. He 362 00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:41.559 came on and talked about his roadside crossing that he 363 00:17:41.599 --> 00:17:43.839 had about three hours from here up at Meadock Mountain 364 00:17:43.839 --> 00:17:48.359 State Park. Then I got into episode three, Bigfoot Hunts 365 00:17:48.359 --> 00:17:51.880 with Coyotes. It's still one of my favorite episodes ever. 366 00:17:52.559 --> 00:17:56.759 I quote Dave often because I tell you what, he 367 00:17:56.880 --> 00:17:58.680 was one of the most out there people. He was 368 00:17:58.720 --> 00:18:00.400 one of the first people that I ever get interview 369 00:18:00.440 --> 00:18:04.559 that talked about possibly being affected by I guess would 370 00:18:04.559 --> 00:18:07.960 be the word or what he called zapped by infrasound. 371 00:18:08.680 --> 00:18:13.559 Dave told a story about bigfoot hunting with coyotes. That's 372 00:18:13.599 --> 00:18:16.519 why I named the episode Bigfoot Hunts with Coyotes. I've 373 00:18:16.559 --> 00:18:19.720 since seen that, although I thought it was complete bullshit 374 00:18:19.759 --> 00:18:22.160 at the time, I've talked to so many people who 375 00:18:22.200 --> 00:18:26.079 have had similar experiences with bigfoot having some sort of 376 00:18:26.119 --> 00:18:29.680 a symbiotic relationship with coyotes. Now I look back and 377 00:18:29.720 --> 00:18:31.799 think maybe Dave wasn't as crazy as I thought. 378 00:18:31.799 --> 00:18:32.240 He was. 379 00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:34.920 Right, there's so many things, And then I look at 380 00:18:35.640 --> 00:18:38.759 episode ten. I had doctor Jeff Meldrum on the show. 381 00:18:39.119 --> 00:18:41.640 Hold on, let me interrupt you real quick, Brian. I 382 00:18:41.720 --> 00:18:45.640 want that to sink in with everybody out there. Episode ten, 383 00:18:46.319 --> 00:18:50.119 he was barely double digits, and he is reaching out 384 00:18:50.200 --> 00:18:53.799 to the biggest name in Bigfoot to get him to 385 00:18:53.839 --> 00:18:55.960 come on a show that no one had ever heard of, 386 00:18:56.200 --> 00:18:58.839 because he's only ten episodes in, nine episodes in at 387 00:18:58.839 --> 00:19:02.480 that point, and he reaches out to him. When I 388 00:19:02.519 --> 00:19:06.240 first got with Brian, you were two hundred episodes in something. 389 00:19:06.480 --> 00:19:09.279 I'm not sure, but I told you one of my 390 00:19:10.039 --> 00:19:14.559 problems as a podcaster was I'm intimidated. I am intimidated 391 00:19:14.559 --> 00:19:17.519 by big names. What you said to me just stuck out. 392 00:19:17.640 --> 00:19:20.240 It's why you don't have to be You're a person there, 393 00:19:20.240 --> 00:19:23.200 a person. All they can say is no. That resonated 394 00:19:23.240 --> 00:19:25.400 with me. I'm like, all he can say is no. 395 00:19:25.839 --> 00:19:27.200 All I have to do is reach out to these 396 00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:30.359 people and ask. But it shocks me that you had 397 00:19:30.359 --> 00:19:33.359 Meldrim on episode ten and you had less Stroud. We 398 00:19:33.359 --> 00:19:36.400 were talking before we went live, you, Tiffany and I. 399 00:19:36.480 --> 00:19:39.880 You had less Stroud on it episode sixty nine. Dude, 400 00:19:39.880 --> 00:19:42.359 what the hell? How do you have the balls to 401 00:19:42.440 --> 00:19:46.200
