<v Speaker 2>that we've taken like a week and a half off

<v Speaker 2>I know, we might as well just get that that

19
00:00:58.119 --> 00:00:59.759
<v Speaker 2>bum out over with like at the top of the

20
00:00:59.759 --> 00:01:02.640
<v Speaker 2>show here. Yeah, of course, Jane Goodall has passed away.

21
00:01:02.679 --> 00:01:05.519
<v Speaker 2>That's a total bum out. Just an amazing woman in

22
00:01:05.560 --> 00:01:07.799
<v Speaker 2>so many ways. I mean, I don't think I need

23
00:01:07.799 --> 00:01:09.920
<v Speaker 2>to go over too much what she's done. But as

24
00:01:09.959 --> 00:01:12.200
<v Speaker 2>far as primatology goes, and of course everybody knows that

25
00:01:12.239 --> 00:01:14.680
<v Speaker 2>she was interested in the Sasquatch subject, and she thought

26
00:01:14.680 --> 00:01:17.760
<v Speaker 2>thought that these things were out there. You know, I

27
00:01:17.959 --> 00:01:20.719
<v Speaker 2>have her autograph. A good friend of mine kind of

28
00:01:20.959 --> 00:01:23.280
<v Speaker 2>ran across her at an airport at one point and

29
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:25.760
<v Speaker 2>she signed us a thing for me and this is

30
00:01:25.799 --> 00:01:29.920
<v Speaker 2>cliff something that something the effective. Maybe we discover the

31
00:01:29.959 --> 00:01:32.079
<v Speaker 2>mystery still out there, I think is what she wrote,

32
00:01:32.120 --> 00:01:34.319
<v Speaker 2>something that efect. I don't have it in front of me, unfortunately,

33
00:01:34.719 --> 00:01:38.799
<v Speaker 2>but yeah, just just what a heartache. Just another another

34
00:01:39.319 --> 00:01:42.599
<v Speaker 2>figure in the Bigfoot community dropping. I mean, because she's

35
00:01:42.599 --> 00:01:45.000
<v Speaker 2>tangentially Bigfoot community, right, yeah, I mean.

36
00:01:44.920 --> 00:01:47.719
<v Speaker 3>We claim her. She didn't known us claiming her. I

37
00:01:47.760 --> 00:01:50.200
<v Speaker 3>don't think, because actually I told the story about when

38
00:01:50.200 --> 00:01:52.879
<v Speaker 3>we were talking about doctor Meldren passing. Just I used

39
00:01:52.920 --> 00:01:55.400
<v Speaker 3>the story of the Jane get All story with him,

40
00:01:55.400 --> 00:01:57.640
<v Speaker 3>but I actually got to speak her kind of like well,

41
00:01:57.640 --> 00:02:00.000
<v Speaker 3>I was on a speakerphone with Rimber rip life.

42
00:02:00.640 --> 00:02:02.799
<v Speaker 2>I do remember Riplin'll never met him, but I remember him.

43
00:02:03.319 --> 00:02:05.840
<v Speaker 3>He was in contact with her for years, like over

44
00:02:05.879 --> 00:02:08.120
<v Speaker 3>the big Foot stuff, and then she also followed it.

45
00:02:08.240 --> 00:02:11.199
<v Speaker 3>He also looked for the Ivory build woodpecker for like

46
00:02:11.280 --> 00:02:13.719
<v Speaker 3>three years down to the swamps, and he had a

47
00:02:13.719 --> 00:02:16.240
<v Speaker 3>couple of big Foot action things there. But yeah, she

48
00:02:16.439 --> 00:02:17.800
<v Speaker 3>liked him, like because he was a He's a pretty

49
00:02:17.800 --> 00:02:20.520
<v Speaker 3>classic character. I mean, he could little nuts have had

50
00:02:20.560 --> 00:02:23.000
<v Speaker 3>a he was. He was funny, and he was funny,

51
00:02:23.000 --> 00:02:25.800
<v Speaker 3>he was smart and and he said, yeah, he goes,

52
00:02:25.879 --> 00:02:27.599
<v Speaker 3>I'm gonna you know, he said he knewer and I

53
00:02:27.719 --> 00:02:29.400
<v Speaker 3>was like no, And he had like signed stuff or

54
00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:31.960
<v Speaker 3>he had pictures with her and stuff, and then said yeah. Yeah.

55
00:02:31.960 --> 00:02:33.319
<v Speaker 3>We talked, you know, a couple of times a year.

56
00:02:33.360 --> 00:02:35.479
<v Speaker 3>And then he said, I'm gonna call her. You know.

57
00:02:35.759 --> 00:02:37.479
<v Speaker 3>I said, dude, I got to hear this. And I said,

58
00:02:37.479 --> 00:02:38.840
<v Speaker 3>I want to hear this, you know, big foot. So

59
00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:41.800
<v Speaker 3>he goes, okay, and he called her and he talked

60
00:02:41.800 --> 00:02:44.360
<v Speaker 3>to her for about like fifteen minutes something like that,

61
00:02:44.960 --> 00:02:47.000
<v Speaker 3>and I got to chime in a little bit, you know,

62
00:02:47.120 --> 00:02:48.960
<v Speaker 3>like I said, well, I said, you know, I just

63
00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:51.400
<v Speaker 3>told her what I knew about some things, and she

64
00:02:51.520 --> 00:02:53.319
<v Speaker 3>wanted She was she's always really interested in like the

65
00:02:53.400 --> 00:02:56.159
<v Speaker 3>native perspective with the old like that, like what the

66
00:02:56.840 --> 00:02:58.599
<v Speaker 3>what like you like their diet and that sort of

67
00:02:58.680 --> 00:03:02.719
<v Speaker 3>things and any kind of breeding patterns, and she was

68
00:03:03.759 --> 00:03:06.000
<v Speaker 3>interested in that. She wasn't you know, in like scary

69
00:03:06.080 --> 00:03:08.560
<v Speaker 3>stories and stuff she wanted to know, like biological aspects

70
00:03:08.599 --> 00:03:08.840
<v Speaker 3>of it.

71
00:03:09.639 --> 00:03:11.360
<v Speaker 2>Very cool and a huge loss, you know, because she

72
00:03:11.520 --> 00:03:15.159
<v Speaker 2>was such a great person that we could, as you said,

73
00:03:15.240 --> 00:03:17.919
<v Speaker 2>claim it's like well good all things, that these things

74
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:20.680
<v Speaker 2>are probably real, Like why don't you you know that?

75
00:03:21.199 --> 00:03:24.560
<v Speaker 2>That's basically I guess her use I guess in the

76
00:03:24.639 --> 00:03:26.919
<v Speaker 2>communities like that. She was open minded enough, So why

77
00:03:27.000 --> 00:03:28.680
<v Speaker 2>can't you, mister and missus skeptic?

78
00:03:28.759 --> 00:03:32.479
<v Speaker 3>You know? Yeah, she called jeffa she called She told

79
00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:34.319
<v Speaker 3>Jeff she really admired him.

80
00:03:34.960 --> 00:03:37.479
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, and bind and Ogle as well, I believe. Yeah,

81
00:03:38.159 --> 00:03:39.919
<v Speaker 2>I've seen pictures of both those gentlemen with her.

82
00:03:40.439 --> 00:03:42.199
<v Speaker 3>I'm pretty sure I took that picture of Meldrene with it,

83
00:03:42.280 --> 00:03:44.919
<v Speaker 3>almost like should I take that picture?

84
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:48.120
<v Speaker 1>Listeners should go back and listen to the Doctor Meldren

85
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:50.680
<v Speaker 1>Tribute if they want to hear Bobo's awesome story about

86
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:54.199
<v Speaker 1>heckling Jane Goodall fans in line for a book signing

87
00:03:54.919 --> 00:03:56.479
<v Speaker 1>or I guess it's speaking of him, right.

88
00:03:57.000 --> 00:03:59.080
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, it was. It was a book signing fall.

89
00:03:59.199 --> 00:04:00.639
<v Speaker 3>I mean it was a speaking event followed by a

90
00:04:00.680 --> 00:04:04.039
<v Speaker 3>book signing, and every person there got in line just

91
00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:06.000
<v Speaker 3>to get to get something signed.

92
00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:08.879
<v Speaker 1>It was amazing that she was still on tour and

93
00:04:09.199 --> 00:04:12.080
<v Speaker 1>you know, going out and delivering lectures to the public.

94
00:04:12.520 --> 00:04:14.759
<v Speaker 1>It sounds like that's she passed away in the midst

95
00:04:14.840 --> 00:04:18.439
<v Speaker 1>of a series of scheduled dates to go do that.

96
00:04:19.000 --> 00:04:20.959
<v Speaker 3>I heard her last interview. She was yeah, she was

97
00:04:21.000 --> 00:04:22.720
<v Speaker 3>still She hadn't taken a day off. She worked right

98
00:04:22.800 --> 00:04:24.920
<v Speaker 3>up till like the day she died. Wow.

99
00:04:25.680 --> 00:04:29.639
<v Speaker 2>Meldrum too, actually yeah, And I mean he's obviously taken

100
00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:31.279
<v Speaker 2>days off, he got weekends and stuff, but he was

101
00:04:31.319 --> 00:04:32.439
<v Speaker 2>hoping to retire the next year.

102
00:04:33.120 --> 00:04:35.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah. Yeah, Yeah.

103
00:04:35.120 --> 00:04:38.040
<v Speaker 2>It's been a tragic couple of weeks a month or so,

104
00:04:38.240 --> 00:04:40.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, with doctor Meldrum dropping and then of course

105
00:04:40.879 --> 00:04:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Scott Violette dropping and now Jane Goodall checked out and

106
00:04:44.600 --> 00:04:46.519
<v Speaker 2>U and actually you don't know, Bobs, but you remember

107
00:04:46.560 --> 00:04:48.120
<v Speaker 2>my buddy Jeff from Santa Cruz.

108
00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:50.199
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, yeah, he died.

109
00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:55.120
<v Speaker 2>He died over this past weekend. He was younger than me. Dang. Yeah,

110
00:04:55.199 --> 00:04:57.079
<v Speaker 2>that's the fourth person. And you know, I can't really

111
00:04:57.120 --> 00:04:59.279
<v Speaker 2>say Jane Goodall's exactly in my sphere, you know, but

112
00:05:00.120 --> 00:05:02.160
<v Speaker 2>kinda is, you know. That's and of course jeffa is

113
00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:05.199
<v Speaker 2>very close so he just passed away. I gotta go

114
00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.879
<v Speaker 2>down to Santa Cruz next weekend for the funeral. He

115
00:05:08.040 --> 00:05:12.040
<v Speaker 2>lived on that wacky ranch down there outside of Sokel,

116
00:05:12.079 --> 00:05:14.360
<v Speaker 2>and I think they had sasquatches. But Jeff is such

117
00:05:14.399 --> 00:05:17.000
<v Speaker 2>a weird guy, you know. He like he said no, no, no,

118
00:05:17.079 --> 00:05:21.040
<v Speaker 2>there was something there. He thought that he had sadys, sadyrs.

119
00:05:22.519 --> 00:05:26.160
<v Speaker 2>He was just such a weird, weird guy. He told

120
00:05:26.240 --> 00:05:29.160
<v Speaker 2>me some crazy stories about that ranch. And he lived

121
00:05:29.240 --> 00:05:33.560
<v Speaker 2>right on Sokel Creek on this weird Junkyard property is

122
00:05:33.639 --> 00:05:36.040
<v Speaker 2>like five long, skinny acres and he lived at the

123
00:05:36.199 --> 00:05:40.879
<v Speaker 2>very very bottom in this ranshackle converted garage that was

124
00:05:41.079 --> 00:05:43.920
<v Speaker 2>certainly not permitted for, you know, any life to be

125
00:05:44.040 --> 00:05:46.639
<v Speaker 2>in there, you know, like maybe chickens or something. But

126
00:05:46.720 --> 00:05:48.600
<v Speaker 2>like he was living in there with his buddy Dan

127
00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:51.519
<v Speaker 2>and Ben and some other people, and they had crazy

128
00:05:52.240 --> 00:05:54.720
<v Speaker 2>I had crazy stuff happened down there. Like I remember

129
00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:57.240
<v Speaker 2>one night I was down there, and it is a

130
00:05:57.279 --> 00:05:59.240
<v Speaker 2>long time ago. This is probably early nineties or something

131
00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:02.480
<v Speaker 2>where hang it out in the I think it's probably

132
00:06:02.519 --> 00:06:04.480
<v Speaker 2>summer because I think the window or door was opened

133
00:06:04.560 --> 00:06:08.680
<v Speaker 2>or something and we heard goats and like coming from

134
00:06:08.720 --> 00:06:11.079
<v Speaker 2>the creek and there's no way goats where I mean,

135
00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:14.600
<v Speaker 2>I guess goats could have gotten loose, but like there

136
00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:17.439
<v Speaker 2>was a goat down townd like, which is why he

137
00:06:17.480 --> 00:06:19.839
<v Speaker 2>thought that there were satyrs around, because he'd hear it often.

138
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:23.480
<v Speaker 2>One time they were coming. Like there was like an

139
00:06:23.519 --> 00:06:25.839
<v Speaker 2>upper property, and I'm the guy who owned this place.

140
00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:28.079
<v Speaker 2>He's long passed away. He was old when I when

141
00:06:28.120 --> 00:06:30.839
<v Speaker 2>I was going down there in the nineties, his name

142
00:06:30.920 --> 00:06:34.920
<v Speaker 2>was Jerry, and there were probably three or four, I

143
00:06:34.959 --> 00:06:37.360
<v Speaker 2>guess buildings for lack of a better term on the

144
00:06:37.439 --> 00:06:40.600
<v Speaker 2>upper property, although some of them were probably trailers. But

145
00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:43.399
<v Speaker 2>you couldn't see him anymore because the guy was a

146
00:06:43.519 --> 00:06:48.120
<v Speaker 2>junk collector, like this insane hoarder. Anything that may have

147
00:06:48.279 --> 00:06:51.079
<v Speaker 2>a use in the future he would take and then

148
00:06:51.199 --> 00:06:53.120
<v Speaker 2>like he had just put it on the property somewhere.

149
00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:54.920
<v Speaker 2>And you do that for a few decades and you

150
00:06:54.959 --> 00:06:57.920
<v Speaker 2>don't you don't see your house anymore. And Jeff lived

151
00:06:57.959 --> 00:07:00.399
<v Speaker 2>Jeff and Dan and those guys are Ben Whoever's roommate

152
00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:02.920
<v Speaker 2>at the time. They lived at the very bottom of

153
00:07:03.000 --> 00:07:05.199
<v Speaker 2>the property. So we had to drive through this like

154
00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:12.240
<v Speaker 2>really tight one lane road with a wall of debris.

155
00:07:12.399 --> 00:07:12.680
<v Speaker 1>I can't.

156
00:07:12.720 --> 00:07:14.199
<v Speaker 2>It was not refuse. I don't want to give the

157
00:07:14.240 --> 00:07:16.720
<v Speaker 2>idea that it was like you know, flies buzzing around

158
00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:19.480
<v Speaker 2>in piles of you know, crap and food waste. It

159
00:07:19.600 --> 00:07:23.000
<v Speaker 2>wasn't like that. It was like like scrap metal and

160
00:07:23.199 --> 00:07:26.920
<v Speaker 2>buckets and old cars and tires and things that might

161
00:07:27.040 --> 00:07:31.120
<v Speaker 2>have a use someday. And there was a legit fifteen

162
00:07:31.279 --> 00:07:34.959
<v Speaker 2>foot wall on either side of this road all the

163
00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:36.759
<v Speaker 2>way down to the bottom. But they were driving down

164
00:07:36.800 --> 00:07:39.600
<v Speaker 2>one night, and of course Jeff, being a wacky guy,

165
00:07:40.519 --> 00:07:44.319
<v Speaker 2>he describes I think he saw a sasquatch because whatever

166
00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:47.240
<v Speaker 2>this was, it moved. It didn't bob its head at all.

167
00:07:47.680 --> 00:07:50.800
<v Speaker 2>It was a dark shadow seven to eight feet tall.

168
00:07:51.759 --> 00:07:55.360
<v Speaker 2>It just basically stepped over the barbed wire fence on

169
00:07:55.399 --> 00:07:57.639
<v Speaker 2>the right hand side of the road from the Persimmon

170
00:07:58.120 --> 00:08:02.399
<v Speaker 2>orchard and then floated across the road and then down

171
00:08:02.519 --> 00:08:06.600
<v Speaker 2>into Sokel Creek. And I go, yeap, that's a sasquatches. Now, now,

172
00:08:06.680 --> 00:08:09.519
<v Speaker 2>the way it moved, it had to be a spirit. Well,

173
00:08:10.040 --> 00:08:14.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, what about a compliant gate And I described

174
00:08:14.360 --> 00:08:17.000
<v Speaker 2>how sasquatch. No, No, not the way this move, man, No,

175
00:08:17.560 --> 00:08:20.680
<v Speaker 2>it was just so smooth, like there's no head bob.

176
00:08:20.720 --> 00:08:25.040
<v Speaker 2>It just like practically floated across the road. And it's like, dude,

177
00:08:25.079 --> 00:08:28.399
<v Speaker 2>you probably saw a sasquatch. And like another dude named

178
00:08:28.439 --> 00:08:32.320
<v Speaker 2>Dan used to live there. And again this weird ramshackle,

179
00:08:32.639 --> 00:08:36.639
<v Speaker 2>you know, garage that they lived in. It had a

180
00:08:37.080 --> 00:08:39.240
<v Speaker 2>triangular sort of roof on it, you know, as many

181
00:08:39.320 --> 00:08:42.279
<v Speaker 2>places do, but that that top triangle part was a window,

182
00:08:42.840 --> 00:08:45.679
<v Speaker 2>and he remembers being in his room and they would

183
00:08:45.679 --> 00:08:48.799
<v Speaker 2>have quote unquote the tall man would come by every

184
00:08:48.840 --> 00:08:51.440
<v Speaker 2>once in a while and then look in their windows,

185
00:08:51.559 --> 00:08:53.440
<v Speaker 2>like that tall, tall window. The thing had to be

186
00:08:53.559 --> 00:08:56.399
<v Speaker 2>like eight or ten feet off the ground, and the

187
00:08:56.480 --> 00:08:58.879
<v Speaker 2>tall man would come and look in the windows sometimes.

188
00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:03.039
<v Speaker 2>And then another time he heard somebody or something like

189
00:09:03.559 --> 00:09:06.679
<v Speaker 2>climb up the broken tractor that was leaning against the

190
00:09:06.759 --> 00:09:09.399
<v Speaker 2>building that they lived in and went on the roof

191
00:09:09.440 --> 00:09:11.600
<v Speaker 2>and ran around for a while and then jumped off

192
00:09:11.679 --> 00:09:14.840
<v Speaker 2>and ran away. Just crazy crazy stuff would happen there.

193
00:09:15.080 --> 00:09:17.000
<v Speaker 2>And of course they knew Mike Rugg. They told Mike

194
00:09:17.000 --> 00:09:19.559
<v Speaker 2>about all that stuff. But you know, Jeff's version of

195
00:09:19.639 --> 00:09:22.639
<v Speaker 2>it was always very very weird, like you know, like, well,

196
00:09:22.639 --> 00:09:24.759
<v Speaker 2>the UFO landed in the field over there, and then

197
00:09:24.799 --> 00:09:28.600
<v Speaker 2>this happened, and just like crazy wacky, wacky stories all

198
00:09:28.639 --> 00:09:30.039
<v Speaker 2>the time. But I think they'd probably just had a

199
00:09:30.080 --> 00:09:30.919
<v Speaker 2>local sasquatch.

200
00:09:31.240 --> 00:09:33.399
<v Speaker 3>I've already had that one about like the giant orb,

201
00:09:33.480 --> 00:09:35.120
<v Speaker 3>like the UFO then coming over the shed.

202
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:39.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah yeah, then they had the crossroads down there where

203
00:09:39.039 --> 00:09:42.159
<v Speaker 2>that they came face to face with with Pan, you know,

204
00:09:42.279 --> 00:09:45.759
<v Speaker 2>the satyr Pan at one time. There's Yeah, he was

205
00:09:45.879 --> 00:09:48.600
<v Speaker 2>a really really weird guy and one of my best friends.

206
00:09:48.879 --> 00:09:51.600
<v Speaker 2>I just love him tremendously and he'll be missed deeply too.

207
00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:53.919
<v Speaker 2>So got I got to go to a funeral next week,

208
00:09:54.120 --> 00:09:57.360
<v Speaker 2>But Jeff himself told me that, you know, we're at

209
00:09:57.399 --> 00:09:59.080
<v Speaker 2>the age where we go to a lot more funerals

210
00:09:59.120 --> 00:09:59.600
<v Speaker 2>and weddings.

211
00:10:00.279 --> 00:10:02.120
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, So I was just thinking that day.

212
00:10:02.799 --> 00:10:04.879
<v Speaker 1>Would it be insensitive to say that I hope your

213
00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:06.799
<v Speaker 1>trip down their pans out.

214
00:10:08.639 --> 00:10:10.000
<v Speaker 2>That's the kind of thing he would appreciate.

215
00:10:11.600 --> 00:10:14.519
<v Speaker 1>You just don't get too many Pan references on this podcast.

216
00:10:15.080 --> 00:10:18.279
<v Speaker 2>Not enough. No, Yeah, I was out in New York

217
00:10:18.320 --> 00:10:19.679
<v Speaker 2>this past weekend as well.

218
00:10:20.200 --> 00:10:21.000
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, how'd that go?

219
00:10:21.559 --> 00:10:23.360
<v Speaker 2>It was all right? It was right first year event,

220
00:10:23.480 --> 00:10:26.519
<v Speaker 2>inaugural event for the New York big Foot Conference. It

221
00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:28.799
<v Speaker 2>was a lot of fun because I flew out two

222
00:10:28.960 --> 00:10:31.919
<v Speaker 2>days early and hung out with John Wilke from Squatshachusetts

223
00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:32.960
<v Speaker 2>for a couple of days.

224
00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:35.480
<v Speaker 3>I blamed you for the Red Sox loss. I said, due,

225
00:10:35.480 --> 00:10:37.720
<v Speaker 3>they lost to the Yankees because Clif didn't cheer hard enough.

226
00:10:37.759 --> 00:10:40.320
<v Speaker 3>It's all his fault. Go sports.

227
00:10:40.879 --> 00:10:42.320
<v Speaker 2>We watched it, though, we watched it.

228
00:10:42.879 --> 00:10:44.960
<v Speaker 3>Not bad, right, they lost, so he gets he takes

229
00:10:45.000 --> 00:10:46.240
<v Speaker 3>it so harder they lose.

230
00:10:46.799 --> 00:10:49.039
<v Speaker 2>He was pretty mad. He was pretty mad, especially I

231
00:10:49.080 --> 00:10:52.399
<v Speaker 2>guess Boston and Yankees apparently have a rivalry. Oh dude,

232
00:10:52.919 --> 00:10:53.480
<v Speaker 2>you knew about this.

233
00:10:54.159 --> 00:10:58.559
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, dude, I'm a Red Talx fan. Uh go sports.

234
00:10:58.960 --> 00:11:01.799
<v Speaker 3>Speaking of sports, I had the worst day to day

235
00:11:01.879 --> 00:11:04.799
<v Speaker 3>last night. I freaking listened. I asked a couple of

236
00:11:04.799 --> 00:11:06.679
<v Speaker 3>my buddies that are fantasy football, like you know, they

237
00:11:06.840 --> 00:11:10.000
<v Speaker 3>played like multiple tons of leagues and teams and they

238
00:11:10.240 --> 00:11:13.120
<v Speaker 3>studied like hours a day, and I was like, God,

239
00:11:13.159 --> 00:11:17.759
<v Speaker 3>I just think I should start Cam Scattaboo over Ashton Jenty.

240
00:11:17.799 --> 00:11:19.679
<v Speaker 3>He was like the Raiders first round pick and Scottobo

241
00:11:19.759 --> 00:11:21.879
<v Speaker 3>was like a third third round pick or fifth round

242
00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:24.360
<v Speaker 3>pick something like that. Anyways, Jenty was like the number

243
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:26.320
<v Speaker 3>one back coming out of college. And he's like getting

244
00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:29.759
<v Speaker 3>all the high he won the Heisman Trophy, and I

245
00:11:29.840 --> 00:11:31.600
<v Speaker 3>was like, I think Scout was gonna do it then,

246
00:11:32.240 --> 00:11:34.320
<v Speaker 3>So the last minute I benched him and put in

247
00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:38.480
<v Speaker 3>genty and he played sunny. But last night freaking Scotty

248
00:11:38.600 --> 00:11:42.279
<v Speaker 3>rand for like ninety eight yards, three touchdowns, scored thirty points,

249
00:11:42.759 --> 00:11:44.200
<v Speaker 3>and I just was so mad.

250
00:11:44.399 --> 00:11:47.440
<v Speaker 2>I was like, Ah, I'm still mesmerized by his name.

251
00:11:47.559 --> 00:11:48.600
<v Speaker 2>Scataboo Is that right?

252
00:11:49.000 --> 00:11:49.919
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's his real name.

253
00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:53.159
<v Speaker 2>That's an awesome name. Well, it's just an awesome sounding word.

254
00:11:53.440 --> 00:11:56.080
<v Speaker 2>I like awesome sounding words, like, you know, gazebo and

255
00:11:56.159 --> 00:11:58.399
<v Speaker 2>things like that, you know, but Skataboo is definitely in there.

256
00:11:58.440 --> 00:11:58.879
<v Speaker 2>That's cool.

257
00:11:59.240 --> 00:12:01.120
<v Speaker 3>But I think that is like I think it's it's

258
00:12:01.120 --> 00:12:05.120
<v Speaker 3>gonna be like Scotch or Welsh or something. Oh okay, yes,

259
00:12:05.240 --> 00:12:08.759
<v Speaker 3>I'm guessing Scottay sounds like it's Scottish to me. It's

260
00:12:08.799 --> 00:12:10.279
<v Speaker 3>just a neat sounding sound. I like that.

261
00:12:10.600 --> 00:12:13.320
<v Speaker 2>That's cool. I'd root for him for that reason.

262
00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:15.639
<v Speaker 3>Anyway, people that want to hear about that, let's talk

263
00:12:15.679 --> 00:12:16.799
<v Speaker 3>bigfoot stuff. What do we got?

264
00:12:17.200 --> 00:12:20.320
<v Speaker 2>Oh wait, well, before we go too much further, John

265
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:22.360
<v Speaker 2>and I we had a whole data kill. So we

266
00:12:22.480 --> 00:12:26.159
<v Speaker 2>went to University of Massachusetts and visited with Todd disstel Oh,

267
00:12:26.879 --> 00:12:28.200
<v Speaker 2>got to go to his lab and hang out with

268
00:12:28.279 --> 00:12:30.039
<v Speaker 2>him and all that sort of stuff. I made a

269
00:12:30.120 --> 00:12:32.120
<v Speaker 2>bet with him. I made a bet that I'm probably

270
00:12:32.159 --> 00:12:33.440
<v Speaker 2>gonna lose, but I think it would be a good

271
00:12:33.440 --> 00:12:35.759
<v Speaker 2>bet anyway. I said, dude, five years, bigfoots are no

272
00:12:35.840 --> 00:12:36.840
<v Speaker 2>longer mystery animals.

273
00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:39.279
<v Speaker 3>I've lost that met so many times over the last

274
00:12:39.320 --> 00:12:39.840
<v Speaker 3>twenty years.

275
00:12:42.240 --> 00:12:45.080
<v Speaker 2>Well, now it's my turn. That's my turn, I said. Well,

276
00:12:45.519 --> 00:12:47.600
<v Speaker 2>but actually I said, well, wait a minute, wait a minute.

277
00:12:47.600 --> 00:12:49.399
<v Speaker 2>Before we do this, how long does it take to

278
00:12:49.440 --> 00:12:52.279
<v Speaker 2>get published in Nature? You know, because when this thing's done,

279
00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:55.039
<v Speaker 2>it's not going to be a small sort of you know,

280
00:12:55.240 --> 00:12:57.279
<v Speaker 2>like journal. It's going to be something big, right obviously.

281
00:12:57.600 --> 00:12:59.919
<v Speaker 2>And he goes, oh, I've been published like four months.

282
00:13:00.080 --> 00:13:03.000
<v Speaker 2>Five months. They go okay, cool, yeah, five years. So

283
00:13:03.159 --> 00:13:05.200
<v Speaker 2>five years I've got a steak dinner and some bourbon

284
00:13:05.240 --> 00:13:07.960
<v Speaker 2>writing on it. So he did. He he did say

285
00:13:08.039 --> 00:13:10.360
<v Speaker 2>he's more than happy to test any vible sample I

286
00:13:10.440 --> 00:13:12.519
<v Speaker 2>send him. And he showed me around his lab and

287
00:13:12.559 --> 00:13:15.120
<v Speaker 2>showed me some of the It was funny we're in

288
00:13:15.200 --> 00:13:16.720
<v Speaker 2>his lab. He goes, yeah, this will do this, and

289
00:13:17.080 --> 00:13:19.559
<v Speaker 2>this this is the centrifugion does blah blah blah, and

290
00:13:19.559 --> 00:13:22.080
<v Speaker 2>this this machine here, and they all look like microwaves

291
00:13:22.120 --> 00:13:24.879
<v Speaker 2>to me, you know, like these big microwaves. Yeah, this

292
00:13:25.000 --> 00:13:27.720
<v Speaker 2>costs like forty fifty thousand dollars. And what this one

293
00:13:27.759 --> 00:13:30.200
<v Speaker 2>does is blah blah blah blah blah. And and he goes, yeah,

294
00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:33.159
<v Speaker 2>this one over here, and you put any sample in there,

295
00:13:33.200 --> 00:13:36.200
<v Speaker 2>it actually extracts the DNA material somehow. By he didn't

296
00:13:36.200 --> 00:13:37.840
<v Speaker 2>say somehow because he knows how. But for me it

297
00:13:37.919 --> 00:13:41.080
<v Speaker 2>was blah blah blah blah blah DNA material somehow, you know.

298
00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:41.759
<v Speaker 3>And then.

299
00:13:43.840 --> 00:13:46.600
<v Speaker 2>And John goes, what's that one do because it kind

300
00:13:46.639 --> 00:13:48.320
<v Speaker 2>of looks like the dishwashers. Oh yeah, that one was

301
00:13:48.360 --> 00:13:49.159
<v Speaker 2>from my coffee cup.

302
00:13:53.360 --> 00:13:54.919
<v Speaker 3>For those that don't know, Just to tell you, I

303
00:13:55.200 --> 00:13:57.159
<v Speaker 3>recognized him. Used to have a mohawk and being like

304
00:13:57.240 --> 00:14:00.240
<v Speaker 3>Bigfoot documentaries like ten, fifteen, twenty years ago, do.

305
00:14:00.279 --> 00:14:02.240
<v Speaker 2>You know, Oh yeah, yeah, good point. I didn't. Yeah

306
00:14:02.320 --> 00:14:04.440
<v Speaker 2>you didn't bridge the gap, Thank you, Bobo. I appreciate that.

307
00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:05.279
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

308
00:14:05.840 --> 00:14:10.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, he's a geneticist who's mildly interested in the sasquatch phenomenon.

309
00:14:10.480 --> 00:14:13.240
<v Speaker 2>But you know, Todd said that he's interested in coming

310
00:14:13.279 --> 00:14:15.000
<v Speaker 2>on and doing more big Foot stuff now I think

311
00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:17.080
<v Speaker 2>so maybe we can probably convince him to come on

312
00:14:17.159 --> 00:14:21.840
<v Speaker 2>the podcast if you guys want so cool, stay tuned

313

348
00:16:20.519 --> 00:16:22.960
<v Speaker 2>and I said, just I mean Todd. In my opinion,

349
00:16:23.039 --> 00:16:25.080
<v Speaker 2>Darby's going to do this. Darby's going to go over

350
00:16:25.120 --> 00:16:27.159
<v Speaker 2>the finish line with this thing. And I've got a

351
00:16:27.200 --> 00:16:30.720
<v Speaker 2>steak dinner on less than five years. It could be you.

352
00:16:31.600 --> 00:16:33.600
<v Speaker 2>It could be you trying to encourage a little bit

353
00:16:33.639 --> 00:16:37.320
<v Speaker 2>of a you know, rivalry or you know competition. You know,

354
00:16:37.360 --> 00:16:39.879
<v Speaker 2>it's like, why don't you do it instead? I don't

355
00:16:39.919 --> 00:16:42.159
<v Speaker 2>care who discovers that. I'm an equal opportunity to discover.

356
00:16:42.879 --> 00:16:45.240
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, well, you know what, I think it's gonna give

357
00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:47.840
<v Speaker 3>a big shot. There's that new thoas scene video came

358
00:16:47.840 --> 00:16:52.759
<v Speaker 3>out yesterday May not Australia, Victoria. Like I guess, it's

359
00:16:52.840 --> 00:16:55.960
<v Speaker 3>like forty to fifty miles from Melbourne, up on the

360
00:16:56.080 --> 00:17:00.519
<v Speaker 3>Yarra Mountain range. The guy got real compelling thermal. It

361
00:17:00.559 --> 00:17:03.600
<v Speaker 3>looks like a thalacy going down and around some kangaroos.

362
00:17:03.639 --> 00:17:07.240
<v Speaker 3>He's got pretty good. Uh, he's got a pulsar like

363
00:17:07.319 --> 00:17:09.200
<v Speaker 3>you got mat. I think it's I think he's got

364
00:17:09.200 --> 00:17:12.319
<v Speaker 3>the fifty So it's pretty clear. I mean it's look,

365
00:17:12.440 --> 00:17:14.319
<v Speaker 3>it looks good to me. I mean it's I mean

366
00:17:14.359 --> 00:17:15.960
<v Speaker 3>he's had some videos out there that are kind of

367
00:17:15.960 --> 00:17:19.839
<v Speaker 3>it's that ambiguous world on YouTube. I think he's had

368
00:17:19.920 --> 00:17:22.680
<v Speaker 3>foxes up there and other things that have been proven

369
00:17:22.720 --> 00:17:24.599
<v Speaker 3>not to be thallacing. But he's got a couple of

370
00:17:24.640 --> 00:17:26.519
<v Speaker 3>clips that look like a thallacing to me, and this

371
00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:28.839
<v Speaker 3>new one really looks like one, and I think I

372
00:17:28.880 --> 00:17:29.519
<v Speaker 3>think he's got it.

373
00:17:30.039 --> 00:17:31.400
<v Speaker 2>Oh yeah, I'm looking at that right now. It does

374
00:17:31.480 --> 00:17:33.000
<v Speaker 2>look kind of does look interesting.

375
00:17:33.559 --> 00:17:35.400
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I mean if that, if that turns out, dude, like,

376
00:17:36.200 --> 00:17:38.799
<v Speaker 3>I mean, that's going to just throw gas on the

377
00:17:38.880 --> 00:17:41.400
<v Speaker 3>fire for cryptis. I mean, that's a Lazarus species, you know,

378
00:17:41.440 --> 00:17:44.559
<v Speaker 3>of course it's a it's it's not there's no question

379
00:17:44.640 --> 00:17:46.799
<v Speaker 3>that was around. We got you know, bodies of them

380
00:17:46.839 --> 00:17:50.039
<v Speaker 3>and footage of them. But they've been extinct supposedly for

381
00:17:50.119 --> 00:17:53.440
<v Speaker 3>one hundred years, almost like ninety years. So if those

382
00:17:53.480 --> 00:17:56.000
<v Speaker 3>things turn out, they have been hidden, you know, down

383
00:17:56.079 --> 00:17:58.319
<v Speaker 3>there the whole time is still living and breeding. I mean,

384
00:17:58.359 --> 00:18:00.759
<v Speaker 3>it's gonna give so much hope to like, like people

385
00:18:00.799 --> 00:18:03.079
<v Speaker 3>are like, well, maybe sasquatches or Yawey's down there, you know,

386
00:18:03.119 --> 00:18:04.720
<v Speaker 3>maybe that is a possibility.

387
00:18:05.200 --> 00:18:07.920
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's interesting. I don't know enough about him and stuff, but.

388
00:18:08.279 --> 00:18:10.359
<v Speaker 3>He's got other videos where he breaks it down, where

389
00:18:10.519 --> 00:18:13.759
<v Speaker 3>he breaks down like the I Am the intermembal index,

390
00:18:14.440 --> 00:18:16.880
<v Speaker 3>like the the legs and this thing don't match anything

391
00:18:16.920 --> 00:18:19.880
<v Speaker 3>but a Tholos scene he's got. He's got some really

392
00:18:19.920 --> 00:18:22.079
<v Speaker 3>interesting videos on there. He's a smart dude.

393
00:18:22.759 --> 00:18:24.240
<v Speaker 2>Maybe we grab him for the podcast too.

394
00:18:24.279 --> 00:18:26.400
<v Speaker 3>Then I've written to him. I used to be in

395
00:18:26.480 --> 00:18:28.680
<v Speaker 3>touch with them, like several years ago. I just wrot

396
00:18:28.720 --> 00:18:30.319
<v Speaker 3>to him again last night, saying, I know you're getting

397
00:18:30.319 --> 00:18:34.839
<v Speaker 3>flooded now, but we'd love to have you on. Well cool, So, uh,

398
00:18:35.160 --> 00:18:37.240
<v Speaker 3>should I derailed the conversation?

399
00:18:38.839 --> 00:18:42.240
<v Speaker 1>My train of thought was derailed. That's a topical news item.

400
00:18:42.759 --> 00:18:44.960
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, which is kind of what we're doing today.

401
00:18:45.000 --> 00:18:47.160
<v Speaker 2>We've got a number of topics lined up for you

402
00:18:47.720 --> 00:18:51.599
<v Speaker 2>or of our listeners. So why don't we hop onto

403
00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:53.559
<v Speaker 2>that we haven't done one of these in a while, right, Matt.

404
00:18:53.839 --> 00:18:56.160
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, we usually do him about once a month. But

405
00:18:56.400 --> 00:18:58.480
<v Speaker 1>you know, we crammed so many episodes and got so

406
00:18:58.599 --> 00:19:02.640
<v Speaker 1>far ahead, weeks ahead, And that's why, listeners, if you noticed,

407
00:19:02.680 --> 00:19:04.440
<v Speaker 1>I was putting in the show notes like by the way,

408
00:19:04.519 --> 00:19:07.359
<v Speaker 1>this was recorded on September fourth or September eighth or whatever,

409
00:19:07.519 --> 00:19:10.039
<v Speaker 1>just because there were things that happened in the interim

410
00:19:10.160 --> 00:19:12.440
<v Speaker 1>that we didn't talk about in the episode, and so

411
00:19:12.519 --> 00:19:14.400
<v Speaker 1>I wanted to make sure people knew, like, no, we

412
00:19:14.559 --> 00:19:17.200
<v Speaker 1>recorded this before those things happened. We weren't just being

413
00:19:17.759 --> 00:19:21.200
<v Speaker 1>callous or ignorant or something. So I couldn't tell you

414
00:19:21.279 --> 00:19:22.759
<v Speaker 1>when the last one we've done is, because they're all

415
00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:25.119
<v Speaker 1>starting to blend together once we get that far ahead.

416
00:19:25.559 --> 00:19:28.279
<v Speaker 1>I just don't remember when we recorded it or released it.

417
00:19:29.799 --> 00:19:32.160
<v Speaker 1>But I really liked this article that I put in

418
00:19:32.519 --> 00:19:37.160
<v Speaker 1>first in the order there about the Neanderthal footprints and

419
00:19:37.480 --> 00:19:39.839
<v Speaker 1>the insights that it gave into their lifestyle, because you know,

420
00:19:39.920 --> 00:19:42.759
<v Speaker 1>you can, as you're such a big advocate of Cliff,

421
00:19:42.839 --> 00:19:45.599
<v Speaker 1>that you can learn so much about an animal or

422
00:19:45.599 --> 00:19:48.640
<v Speaker 1>a species or an individual from footprints alone, And I

423
00:19:48.680 --> 00:19:51.400
<v Speaker 1>thought that one offered a lot of really cool insights.

424
00:19:51.880 --> 00:19:53.359
<v Speaker 2>Okay, let me pull up the article. Here is this

425
00:19:53.440 --> 00:19:55.599
<v Speaker 2>someone about the the Nandertal foot prints alon the lake

426
00:19:55.640 --> 00:19:57.960
<v Speaker 2>bed with a dentinal or something, and oh, okay, cool,

427
00:19:57.960 --> 00:20:00.599
<v Speaker 2>I remember that one. I did read that one. Okay,

428
00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:03.359
<v Speaker 2>it looks like that Deanderthal footprints were discovered on a

429
00:20:03.440 --> 00:20:08.519
<v Speaker 2>southwestern Portuguese coast and the tracks are from eighty two

430
00:20:08.599 --> 00:20:11.480
<v Speaker 2>to maybe seventy eight thousand years ago, so relatively recently.

431
00:20:11.559 --> 00:20:13.720
<v Speaker 2>I know it doesn't sound very recent, but that's pretty recently.

432
00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:16.400
<v Speaker 2>A couple of the interesting things about this is that

433
00:20:16.519 --> 00:20:20.359
<v Speaker 2>apparently that the footprint from the youngest child lacks a

434
00:20:20.599 --> 00:20:24.359
<v Speaker 2>fully formed arch, which is consistent with the expectations I

435
00:20:24.359 --> 00:20:26.839
<v Speaker 2>guess from early childhood from development and Neanderthals. I didn't

436
00:20:26.839 --> 00:20:29.160
<v Speaker 2>know that. That's pretty cool. I didn't know that at all.

437
00:20:29.440 --> 00:20:33.079
<v Speaker 2>You know, I have a couple of footprints. Doctor Melgrim

438
00:20:33.119 --> 00:20:37.799
<v Speaker 2>gave me a footprint from supposed I think it was

439
00:20:37.839 --> 00:20:41.720
<v Speaker 2>from the Palmiers from an almisty, and it very closely

440
00:20:41.880 --> 00:20:46.920
<v Speaker 2>matches the footprints from Neanderthals. I remember talking to doctor

441
00:20:46.960 --> 00:20:52.319
<v Speaker 2>Melgrim that he suspects at the Almistes in eastern Europe

442
00:20:52.359 --> 00:20:56.319
<v Speaker 2>there are probably or that probably maybe I think that's

443
00:20:56.359 --> 00:21:01.799
<v Speaker 2>too struggle word possibly reliced Neanderthals are possibly Dennis Ovin's.

444
00:21:02.240 --> 00:21:05.079
<v Speaker 1>It was really interesting that these trackways included prints that

445
00:21:05.160 --> 00:21:07.880
<v Speaker 1>they interpreted as being from an adult male, a juvenile

446
00:21:07.920 --> 00:21:10.240
<v Speaker 1>basically a child that they assume is somewhere between like

447
00:21:10.279 --> 00:21:13.240
<v Speaker 1>seven and nine years old, and a toddler likely under

448
00:21:13.319 --> 00:21:16.279
<v Speaker 1>two years old, and that the arrangement and depth of

449
00:21:16.359 --> 00:21:21.359
<v Speaker 1>the footprint suggests a deliberate movement, something like something coordinated,

450
00:21:21.599 --> 00:21:23.920
<v Speaker 1>which they seem to interpret as like hunting behavior like

451
00:21:24.759 --> 00:21:27.240
<v Speaker 1>it says quote the prints indicate the likelihood of a

452
00:21:27.319 --> 00:21:29.599
<v Speaker 1>hunting scenario, which I think is pretty fascinating.

453
00:21:30.119 --> 00:21:34.440
<v Speaker 2>Would be super fascinating is considering that there's a I guess,

454
00:21:34.480 --> 00:21:36.480
<v Speaker 2>a juvenile or you almost called a baby if they

455
00:21:36.480 --> 00:21:40.160
<v Speaker 2>think it's less than two years old, a young one,

456
00:21:40.359 --> 00:21:43.960
<v Speaker 2>certainly a toddler, yeah, coming along with them on this. Now,

457
00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:46.960
<v Speaker 2>of course you'd have to wonder like Neanderthals, of course

458
00:21:47.039 --> 00:21:49.759
<v Speaker 2>took down huge animals, you know, deer and horses and

459
00:21:49.799 --> 00:21:51.400
<v Speaker 2>all that sort of stuff, and maybe in a mammos

460
00:21:51.480 --> 00:21:55.200
<v Speaker 2>I guess. But if they're doing stuff along the seashore,

461
00:21:55.480 --> 00:21:57.279
<v Speaker 2>that makes a lot of sense too. I think too

462
00:21:57.279 --> 00:21:59.880
<v Speaker 2>many times humans, when we discover something like, oh, these

463
00:22:00.039 --> 00:22:02.680
<v Speaker 2>I took down mamis, we think that that's what they did,

464
00:22:02.759 --> 00:22:05.559
<v Speaker 2>and that's all they did. But a seashore, especially in

465
00:22:05.599 --> 00:22:07.720
<v Speaker 2>a Mediterranean sort of climate like that, I don't I

466
00:22:07.759 --> 00:22:10.039
<v Speaker 2>get was it Mediterranean at that time? I don't really know.

467
00:22:11.200 --> 00:22:16.960
<v Speaker 2>But you sasquatches exploit resources along the ocean all the time,

468
00:22:17.440 --> 00:22:20.839
<v Speaker 2>and certainly ancestors and relatives would do the same thing,

469
00:22:20.880 --> 00:22:23.920
<v Speaker 2>and I think here we have evidence of that. Now,

470
00:22:24.000 --> 00:22:26.559
<v Speaker 2>what were they hunting if that if they were in

471
00:22:26.640 --> 00:22:29.039
<v Speaker 2>fact hunting. I mean, they probably weren't hunting mammas on

472
00:22:29.119 --> 00:22:32.519
<v Speaker 2>the beach. I guess it's possible. But what else lives

473
00:22:32.559 --> 00:22:36.279
<v Speaker 2>there in abundance birds? For example? Maybe they're hunting birds.

474
00:22:36.319 --> 00:22:38.119
<v Speaker 2>That seems like something you might take a two year

475
00:22:38.160 --> 00:22:41.480
<v Speaker 2>old on a trip to go do, right, But at

476
00:22:41.480 --> 00:22:43.319
<v Speaker 2>the very least, it does give us some sort of

477
00:22:43.440 --> 00:22:47.519
<v Speaker 2>insight into the social structure and behaviors of at least

478
00:22:47.599 --> 00:22:51.480
<v Speaker 2>these critters deanderthals, because they brought the younglings along with

479
00:22:51.599 --> 00:22:54.599
<v Speaker 2>them on whatever they were doing, foraging for whatever.

480
00:22:54.759 --> 00:22:57.599
<v Speaker 3>But I know this so that they thought that, like

481
00:22:57.680 --> 00:22:59.720
<v Speaker 3>the kids would go out and hunt like rabbits and

482
00:22:59.720 --> 00:23:01.599
<v Speaker 3>stuff like the Maybe they.

483
00:23:01.599 --> 00:23:04.279
<v Speaker 2>Do, I don't know, But moving together in a familial group,

484
00:23:04.359 --> 00:23:08.319
<v Speaker 2>that sounds familiar to me. We see that a lot

485
00:23:08.359 --> 00:23:12.200
<v Speaker 2>with sasquatches, that there's different sizes of footprints associated with

486
00:23:12.319 --> 00:23:15.279
<v Speaker 2>one another to some degree, So that there's another example

487
00:23:15.319 --> 00:23:16.839
<v Speaker 2>of that sort of hominin behavior.

488
00:23:17.480 --> 00:23:17.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, to me.

489
00:23:18.200 --> 00:23:20.640
<v Speaker 1>It also speaks to that how much of an animal's

490
00:23:20.680 --> 00:23:24.960
<v Speaker 1>behavior is learned behaviors rather than innate or instinctual behaviors.

491
00:23:25.039 --> 00:23:28.200
<v Speaker 1>And I was really fascinated to learn that the majority

492
00:23:28.200 --> 00:23:31.640
<v Speaker 1>of tiger hunting behaviors. Siberian tigers are learned behaviors. They're

493
00:23:31.680 --> 00:23:34.799
<v Speaker 1>not instinctual or innate, which is really kind of bizarre.

494
00:23:34.880 --> 00:23:37.759
<v Speaker 1>You would think a genus that's been around that long

495
00:23:38.200 --> 00:23:40.119
<v Speaker 1>so many of those things would have become hardwired. But

496
00:23:40.160 --> 00:23:42.559
<v Speaker 1>they're actually learned, and it takes them quite a while

497
00:23:42.599 --> 00:23:46.119
<v Speaker 1>to be exposed to their mothers exhibiting these behaviors to

498
00:23:46.200 --> 00:23:49.480
<v Speaker 1>pick them up and develop that sort of sophisticated and

499
00:23:49.599 --> 00:23:52.759
<v Speaker 1>complex behavioral repertoire. And you're seeing that here. I mean,

500
00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:55.559
<v Speaker 1>it would be any surprise that humans are that way,

501
00:23:56.039 --> 00:23:59.079
<v Speaker 1>but it's interesting to see direct evidence of that. I

502
00:23:59.119 --> 00:24:01.880
<v Speaker 1>think it said something too about there was a likely

503
00:24:02.000 --> 00:24:04.519
<v Speaker 1>camp site nearby, like it was pretty proximal to what

504
00:24:04.640 --> 00:24:07.880
<v Speaker 1>seemed to be an intertal encampment, showing that like this

505
00:24:08.200 --> 00:24:10.440
<v Speaker 1>was part of their landscape. You know, this wasn't some

506
00:24:10.680 --> 00:24:13.440
<v Speaker 1>far flung hunting grounds, Like this is basically down the

507
00:24:13.519 --> 00:24:16.640
<v Speaker 1>road from where they lived essentially, and so going out

508
00:24:16.680 --> 00:24:20.240
<v Speaker 1>as a family unit and practicing these skills for the

509
00:24:20.720 --> 00:24:23.519
<v Speaker 1>children at least learning these skills while the adult male

510
00:24:23.640 --> 00:24:26.920
<v Speaker 1>practice them. It's all pretty insightful to gain that much

511
00:24:26.960 --> 00:24:28.920
<v Speaker 1>information just from a set of tracks.

512
00:24:29.240 --> 00:24:32.440
<v Speaker 2>Well, which really drives home that whole thing about tracking

513
00:24:32.799 --> 00:24:39.480
<v Speaker 2>is extraordinarily important, extraordinarily important. Again, I've actually heard a

514
00:24:39.559 --> 00:24:42.759
<v Speaker 2>bigfoot researcher say, we got to stop looking for tracks.

515
00:24:42.839 --> 00:24:45.880
<v Speaker 2>What's one more track going to teach us? And I

516
00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:49.160
<v Speaker 2>just could not disagree more strongly. I just could not

517
00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:52.480
<v Speaker 2>disagree with that statement more strongly. We need to track

518
00:24:52.640 --> 00:24:55.880
<v Speaker 2>more and more and more. The presence of the animal

519
00:24:56.279 --> 00:24:58.240
<v Speaker 2>is one thing, certainly that tracks can tell us that

520
00:24:58.440 --> 00:25:01.519
<v Speaker 2>with sasquatches or neanderthal or whatever, it doesn't really matter.

521
00:25:01.880 --> 00:25:04.799
<v Speaker 2>But by following the tracks and seeing where they happen

522
00:25:04.880 --> 00:25:06.839
<v Speaker 2>and what they're doing at the time, it's the only

523
00:25:06.960 --> 00:25:10.200
<v Speaker 2>way to get into the brain of a sasquatch. Really,

524
00:25:10.799 --> 00:25:13.200
<v Speaker 2>it's the only way to learn about these animals. I

525
00:25:13.279 --> 00:25:16.599
<v Speaker 2>can't believe that anybody would advocate to stop looking for

526
00:25:16.680 --> 00:25:19.599
<v Speaker 2>footprints and collecting them, Like, what does that get us?

527
00:25:19.960 --> 00:25:23.480
<v Speaker 2>It gives us a willful ignorance of the behaviors of

528
00:25:23.559 --> 00:25:26.720
<v Speaker 2>the species. It's just it's absolutely ridiculous to me.

529
00:25:27.279 --> 00:25:30.119
<v Speaker 3>There's nothing like getting on a trackway and seeing where

530
00:25:30.160 --> 00:25:32.799
<v Speaker 3>they step and like like melgam was talking, like how

531
00:25:32.799 --> 00:25:34.400
<v Speaker 3>the foot would go off at a forty five degree

532
00:25:34.400 --> 00:25:36.799
<v Speaker 3>angle every other stuff because I was looking over its shoulder, like,

533
00:25:37.240 --> 00:25:40.039
<v Speaker 3>and it gives you so much insight into their psychology

534
00:25:40.119 --> 00:25:42.480
<v Speaker 3>and how they think it is, you know, it's it's

535
00:25:43.160 --> 00:25:44.640
<v Speaker 3>it gives you in the mind of the squatsch when

536
00:25:44.640 --> 00:25:46.160
<v Speaker 3>you get on their trail and you can see where

537
00:25:46.160 --> 00:25:49.440
<v Speaker 3>they're stepping and what they're going, like, what they're keeping like,

538
00:25:49.599 --> 00:25:52.440
<v Speaker 3>you know, how they try to stay hidden from you know,

539
00:25:52.480 --> 00:25:54.400
<v Speaker 3>as much as possible as they walk, but keep it,

540
00:25:54.880 --> 00:25:57.720
<v Speaker 3>keep going the direction they're going. I mean, yeah, it's

541
00:25:57.759 --> 00:25:59.839
<v Speaker 3>it's it's it's the coolest thing I can think of.

542
00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:03.240
<v Speaker 2>Really, And what percentage I mean, there's this venturre I guess,

543
00:26:03.319 --> 00:26:08.319
<v Speaker 2>Bobo Matt, what percentage of sighting reports have the sasquatch

544
00:26:09.400 --> 00:26:12.920
<v Speaker 2>being aware that it's being observed? Oh, I'd say the

545
00:26:13.039 --> 00:26:17.200
<v Speaker 2>majority ninety eight ninety nine percent. Right, I'm it's very

546
00:26:17.359 --> 00:26:21.880
<v Speaker 2>very rare to observe a sasquatch it and it doesn't

547
00:26:21.920 --> 00:26:24.680
<v Speaker 2>know that it's being observed, very very rare. And of course,

548
00:26:24.759 --> 00:26:28.680
<v Speaker 2>what does any sasquatch or animal really do when it

549
00:26:28.799 --> 00:26:31.680
<v Speaker 2>knows it's being observed, Well, a variety of things, but

550
00:26:32.119 --> 00:26:34.240
<v Speaker 2>you can put all of those things under the umbrella

551
00:26:34.319 --> 00:26:37.880
<v Speaker 2>of it changes its behavior. It clearly changes its behavior,

552
00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:41.039
<v Speaker 2>usually just walks away, but it certainly and maybe it hides,

553
00:26:41.079 --> 00:26:43.759
<v Speaker 2>maybe it does something else, but it stops doing what

554
00:26:43.880 --> 00:26:47.119
<v Speaker 2>it was doing naturally and changes its behavior and does

555
00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:51.240
<v Speaker 2>something else. I argue I do this publicly all the

556
00:26:51.319 --> 00:26:54.240
<v Speaker 2>time because I'm really focused on footprints, because I want

557
00:26:54.240 --> 00:26:56.279
<v Speaker 2>to learn about the species. I know that they're there,

558
00:26:56.319 --> 00:26:58.200
<v Speaker 2>I want to know what they're doing, right, So, but

559
00:26:58.319 --> 00:27:01.599
<v Speaker 2>I argue all the time, the only way to observe

560
00:27:01.720 --> 00:27:05.680
<v Speaker 2>a sasquatch and it not know that it's being observed,

561
00:27:05.680 --> 00:27:09.079
<v Speaker 2>it's by tracking them, because every trackway tells a story.

562
00:27:10.039 --> 00:27:13.200
<v Speaker 2>It was moving through this area doing something. What was

563
00:27:13.279 --> 00:27:13.799
<v Speaker 2>it doing?

564
00:27:14.519 --> 00:27:14.720
<v Speaker 3>You know?

565
00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:17.720
<v Speaker 2>And there is no other way, in my opinion that

566
00:27:17.759 --> 00:27:22.960
<v Speaker 2>I'm aware of, to observe a sasquatch without it changing

567
00:27:23.000 --> 00:27:24.480
<v Speaker 2>its behavior in some sort of way.

568
00:27:25.039 --> 00:27:26.559
<v Speaker 1>And it looks like in this case too, that they

569
00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:30.240
<v Speaker 1>their interpretation is that because it looks like there were

570
00:27:30.319 --> 00:27:33.599
<v Speaker 1>red deer footprints as well, and so it reveals a

571
00:27:33.799 --> 00:27:36.680
<v Speaker 1>likely scenario where in the Neanderthals were leveraging the done

572
00:27:36.759 --> 00:27:41.119
<v Speaker 1>topography to facilitate ambushes, so using that landscape to basically

573
00:27:41.240 --> 00:27:45.319
<v Speaker 1>hide or surprise prey potentially intercept prey or even maybe

574
00:27:45.400 --> 00:27:50.680
<v Speaker 1>to drive prey interrain that constrains the praise movement sounds

575
00:27:50.880 --> 00:27:55.359
<v Speaker 1>very familiar to me, Yes, very very much though clearly

576
00:27:55.400 --> 00:27:57.039
<v Speaker 1>another Sasquatch parallel right there.

577
00:27:59.119 --> 00:28:02.160
<v Speaker 2>Stay tuned for more Bigfoot and Beyond with Cliff and

578
00:28:02.200 --> 00:28:04.480
<v Speaker 2>Bogo will be right back after these messages.

579
00:28:11.079 --> 00:28:12.559
<v Speaker 1>That does make me wonder, you know, if all the

580
00:28:12.640 --> 00:28:16.240
<v Speaker 1>Sasquatch tracks that come to mind where people are interpreting

581
00:28:16.319 --> 00:28:17.960
<v Speaker 1>what the things were up to. You know, you have

582
00:28:18.039 --> 00:28:19.799
<v Speaker 1>a lot of sidings where people claim to see them

583
00:28:19.880 --> 00:28:23.519
<v Speaker 1>ambushing deer or hogs or elk or whatever. But I

584
00:28:23.559 --> 00:28:26.720
<v Speaker 1>don't know that there's any track ways where someone claims

585
00:28:26.759 --> 00:28:30.079
<v Speaker 1>to have interpreted or documented a trackway that displays that

586
00:28:30.200 --> 00:28:32.440
<v Speaker 1>sort of behavior or what you would interpret as that

587
00:28:32.519 --> 00:28:33.200
<v Speaker 1>sort of behavior.

588
00:28:33.680 --> 00:28:36.119
<v Speaker 2>We got one, yeah, one hundred percent. There is a

589
00:28:36.160 --> 00:28:38.599
<v Speaker 2>few years ago at the Blueberry Bog we got one

590
00:28:38.640 --> 00:28:42.359
<v Speaker 2>of those. Connor located a track. It's on display at

591
00:28:42.400 --> 00:28:45.880
<v Speaker 2>the museum. There were actually several tracks on the shore

592
00:28:46.759 --> 00:28:49.359
<v Speaker 2>like this, on the side of the swamp basically, and

593
00:28:50.240 --> 00:28:52.720
<v Speaker 2>Connor found it. Nico went back with them. I never

594
00:28:52.839 --> 00:28:54.240
<v Speaker 2>had that. I was out of town or something. I

595
00:28:54.240 --> 00:28:57.400
<v Speaker 2>didn't have an opportunity to observe the trackway for myself.

596
00:28:57.480 --> 00:28:59.720
<v Speaker 2>But Nico, who's a training tracker, He's taking classes in

597
00:28:59.720 --> 00:29:02.640
<v Speaker 2>this whole thing. He's a good tracker. I'm just a

598
00:29:03.000 --> 00:29:05.079
<v Speaker 2>self taught hack, you know. But I do practice all

599
00:29:05.119 --> 00:29:07.359
<v Speaker 2>the time. I sicking that today. I practiced like six

600
00:29:07.480 --> 00:29:09.799
<v Speaker 2>to twelve hours a week a lot of times. You know,

601
00:29:09.960 --> 00:29:12.400
<v Speaker 2>you got to get better practicing that much, right, But

602
00:29:13.200 --> 00:29:15.400
<v Speaker 2>because taking classes and he's pretty good at it, he

603
00:29:15.519 --> 00:29:18.400
<v Speaker 2>went out there to observe the trackway, and what he

604
00:29:18.640 --> 00:29:23.559
<v Speaker 2>pieced together the story that those tracks told him is

605
00:29:23.640 --> 00:29:27.279
<v Speaker 2>that he backtracked the sasquatch to the woodline, and then

606
00:29:27.559 --> 00:29:30.640
<v Speaker 2>apparently a bunch of elk were in the area, and

607
00:29:30.799 --> 00:29:33.920
<v Speaker 2>the elk took off. They seem to have panicked or

608
00:29:33.960 --> 00:29:37.640
<v Speaker 2>something like that, and went across the swamp like the

609
00:29:37.920 --> 00:29:40.279
<v Speaker 2>water like there's a big pond there, you know, like

610
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:44.240
<v Speaker 2>that sort of thing. They went across the pond, and

611
00:29:44.599 --> 00:29:48.720
<v Speaker 2>the sasquatch tracks came out of the woods about thirty

612
00:29:48.880 --> 00:29:54.839
<v Speaker 2>yards fifty yards down and then slowly turned and followed

613
00:29:54.880 --> 00:29:58.440
<v Speaker 2>the elk across the pond. And you can actually see

614
00:29:58.480 --> 00:30:01.359
<v Speaker 2>the duckweed or whatever or muck was floating on the

615
00:30:01.440 --> 00:30:03.519
<v Speaker 2>surface of the pond. You can see how the whole

616
00:30:03.640 --> 00:30:07.599
<v Speaker 2>thing was parted, and the thing, the elk and everything,

617
00:30:07.640 --> 00:30:10.240
<v Speaker 2>and the sasquatch presumably went all the way across the

618
00:30:10.319 --> 00:30:12.240
<v Speaker 2>water and out on the shore on the other side

619
00:30:12.279 --> 00:30:12.799
<v Speaker 2>and kept going.

620
00:30:13.599 --> 00:30:16.000
<v Speaker 1>That sounds totally new to me. I don't think we

621
00:30:16.079 --> 00:30:18.079
<v Speaker 1>talked about that before, at least not on the podcast.

622
00:30:18.160 --> 00:30:21.480
<v Speaker 1>That's wild cool stuff, though, right, I mean, yeah, what

623
00:30:21.640 --> 00:30:26.400
<v Speaker 1>a great story that the Ground told you, you know, absolutely, yeah,

624
00:30:26.440 --> 00:30:28.839
<v Speaker 1>there's got got some pictures of it. I think they

625
00:30:28.880 --> 00:30:30.920
<v Speaker 1>made a video about it too. Let's see if I

626
00:30:30.920 --> 00:30:32.599
<v Speaker 1>can find the video and send it to you as well.

627
00:30:33.079 --> 00:30:34.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh, I'd love to see that.

628
00:30:34.759 --> 00:30:35.000
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

629
00:30:36.240 --> 00:30:41.160
<v Speaker 1>So, in keeping with the footprints and cooperative movements, et cetera,

630
00:30:41.200 --> 00:30:44.319
<v Speaker 1>should we move on to the baboon article?

631
00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:51.440
<v Speaker 2>Sure? Okay, So this article is basically about baboons moving

632
00:30:51.839 --> 00:30:57.039
<v Speaker 2>in progressions, which are neat linear formations when traveling throughout

633
00:30:57.079 --> 00:31:00.319
<v Speaker 2>their habitat, which you know, which is one of those

634
00:31:00.319 --> 00:31:02.039
<v Speaker 2>things that's like, well, yeah, of course they probably do that,

635
00:31:02.160 --> 00:31:04.440
<v Speaker 2>because we do that, right. I mean, how many times

636
00:31:04.519 --> 00:31:07.519
<v Speaker 2>do when you're off trail somewhere you just walk right

637
00:31:07.559 --> 00:31:10.319
<v Speaker 2>behind somebody. You don't always walk side by side, right,

638
00:31:10.599 --> 00:31:12.079
<v Speaker 2>so at least some of the time they do that.

639
00:31:12.160 --> 00:31:15.720
<v Speaker 2>But scientists were wondering if this is a strategic choice,

640
00:31:15.920 --> 00:31:18.960
<v Speaker 2>like are they protecting individuals or something like that, or

641
00:31:19.240 --> 00:31:24.000
<v Speaker 2>following leaders or just accidental, But apparently it's on purpose.

642
00:31:24.079 --> 00:31:26.400
<v Speaker 2>They are doing this on purpose, so that they were

643
00:31:26.440 --> 00:31:30.319
<v Speaker 2>wondering if there's a risk hypothesis, so like vulnerable individuals

644
00:31:30.400 --> 00:31:33.640
<v Speaker 2>might be placed centrally for protection, which brings to mind

645
00:31:33.680 --> 00:31:38.920
<v Speaker 2>Bobo's story about the tigers in Samatra. You remember that, Bobs, Yeah, yeah, totally,

646
00:31:38.960 --> 00:31:42.079
<v Speaker 2>because apparently in Sumatra they were picking off individuals at

647
00:31:42.119 --> 00:31:44.240
<v Speaker 2>the end, but they're also picking off individuals in the

648
00:31:44.279 --> 00:31:46.599
<v Speaker 2>middle when humans were walking in single file line.

649
00:31:47.359 --> 00:31:48.920
<v Speaker 3>The one that got killed three weeks ahead of us,

650
00:31:48.960 --> 00:31:52.680
<v Speaker 3>that Japanese guy, he was in the middle of fifteen people.

651
00:31:52.720 --> 00:31:53.880
<v Speaker 3>He was the exact middle guy.

652
00:31:55.319 --> 00:31:57.680
<v Speaker 2>Well, I guess, don't leave so much space when you're

653
00:31:57.759 --> 00:32:00.680
<v Speaker 2>hiking in tiger country. I guess is the lesson. Yeah,

654
00:32:00.720 --> 00:32:03.880
<v Speaker 2>so there's a risk hypothesis. There's also a competition hypothesis,

655
00:32:04.480 --> 00:32:09.480
<v Speaker 2>basically saying that the stronger individuals would be first, and therefore,

656
00:32:09.759 --> 00:32:12.759
<v Speaker 2>you know, they would get the resources for better access

657
00:32:12.920 --> 00:32:16.759
<v Speaker 2>to resources. There's also this idea a group decision or

658
00:32:16.880 --> 00:32:20.680
<v Speaker 2>leadership right where certain individuals lead the group. All these

659
00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:23.240
<v Speaker 2>things are very viable, I think, and also some social

660
00:32:23.599 --> 00:32:27.680
<v Speaker 2>relationship ideas about how the ordering of how they're walking

661
00:32:28.119 --> 00:32:32.440
<v Speaker 2>emerges from social bonds rather than any sort of functional purpose.

662
00:32:33.319 --> 00:32:34.599
<v Speaker 3>Social spandrel.

663
00:32:35.440 --> 00:32:38.559
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, spandrel is essentially a term that's used to describe

664
00:32:38.599 --> 00:32:42.680
<v Speaker 1>something that's like a evolutionary byproduct, like it doesn't necessarily

665
00:32:43.359 --> 00:32:49.359
<v Speaker 1>have a direct function that's adaptive or for survival. So

666
00:32:49.519 --> 00:32:52.559
<v Speaker 1>that's why they called that one the social spandreal hypothesis,

667
00:32:52.640 --> 00:32:54.720
<v Speaker 1>Like maybe this is just something that emerged as a

668
00:32:54.799 --> 00:32:58.039
<v Speaker 1>byproduct of their lifestyle and it's not actually serving any

669
00:32:58.079 --> 00:33:02.680
<v Speaker 1>specific function or it doesn't have a specific like adaptive utility.

670
00:33:03.480 --> 00:33:04.200
<v Speaker 2>Is that why we do what?

671
00:33:04.279 --> 00:33:04.519
<v Speaker 3>You think?

672
00:33:04.759 --> 00:33:07.160
<v Speaker 2>Do we do it because because it seems natural?

673
00:33:08.039 --> 00:33:11.039
<v Speaker 1>I wouldn't think so, I mean just guessing, like to

674
00:33:11.359 --> 00:33:14.160
<v Speaker 1>your earlier point, Like there's this path of least resistance thing,

675
00:33:14.279 --> 00:33:16.680
<v Speaker 1>and so you know, if we're moving through a forested

676
00:33:16.759 --> 00:33:18.319
<v Speaker 1>environment and one of us is in front, one of

677
00:33:18.440 --> 00:33:20.680
<v Speaker 1>us is behind, well it's going to be less like

678
00:33:20.799 --> 00:33:23.119
<v Speaker 1>one person's going to eat all the spider webs rather

679
00:33:23.240 --> 00:33:24.920
<v Speaker 1>than both of us doing it, you know, And so

680
00:33:25.440 --> 00:33:28.960
<v Speaker 1>whoever's like trailblazing is making the path least resistant for

681
00:33:29.119 --> 00:33:32.480
<v Speaker 1>the person behind them. You know, there's you could have

682
00:33:33.200 --> 00:33:35.839
<v Speaker 1>any combination of the ones you just mentioned, Like, well,

683
00:33:35.880 --> 00:33:37.960
<v Speaker 1>if you're with a more experienced person, yeah, you want

684
00:33:38.000 --> 00:33:40.720
<v Speaker 1>that person to lead, So there is that social element, but.

685
00:33:41.119 --> 00:33:43.319
<v Speaker 3>You already know where they're going. That says it's like

686
00:33:43.400 --> 00:33:45.000
<v Speaker 3>they're not really leading, right.

687
00:33:45.599 --> 00:33:48.400
<v Speaker 1>Well, it looks like their findings were that the order

688
00:33:48.480 --> 00:33:51.240
<v Speaker 1>that the baboons walk in that they're you know, self

689
00:33:51.279 --> 00:33:54.880
<v Speaker 1>selecting and setting up disorder is predictable, so it's not random,

690
00:33:55.160 --> 00:33:57.799
<v Speaker 1>and it didn't seem to be driven by anything related

691
00:33:57.839 --> 00:34:02.680
<v Speaker 1>to safety protection, anything related to food acquisition strategies, and

692
00:34:02.759 --> 00:34:06.160
<v Speaker 1>that it was primarily related to social bonds. That the

693
00:34:06.359 --> 00:34:08.320
<v Speaker 1>social bonds determine the travel order.

694
00:34:08.639 --> 00:34:10.920
<v Speaker 3>But the ones in front weren't weren't like leading them.

695
00:34:11.000 --> 00:34:13.400
<v Speaker 3>They just they just were out front because they couldn't

696
00:34:13.440 --> 00:34:15.559
<v Speaker 3>walk with the cool guys and so they just there

697
00:34:15.639 --> 00:34:17.719
<v Speaker 3>wasn't any they weren't like leading on. Everyone knew where

698
00:34:17.719 --> 00:34:18.239
<v Speaker 3>they were going.

699
00:34:18.719 --> 00:34:20.280
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's what it sounds like. It says those at

700
00:34:20.320 --> 00:34:23.000
<v Speaker 1>the front are not the leaders. They were not making

701
00:34:23.119 --> 00:34:26.400
<v Speaker 1>navigation decisions. Yeah, to your point, they already knew where

702
00:34:26.400 --> 00:34:29.239
<v Speaker 1>they were headed, like to and from a familiar sleeping

703
00:34:29.320 --> 00:34:30.880
<v Speaker 1>side or resting site or something like that.

704
00:34:31.719 --> 00:34:35.000
<v Speaker 2>One iypothesis that I don't see mentioned here is they

705
00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:40.239
<v Speaker 2>move in single file to hide their numbers like sand people. Yeah,

706
00:34:40.960 --> 00:34:43.119
<v Speaker 2>but you know, I'm the one that submitted this article.

707
00:34:43.159 --> 00:34:46.960
<v Speaker 2>I remember that because out at oddly enough, ironically enough,

708
00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:49.440
<v Speaker 2>I guess, considering the joke, I just made that a

709
00:34:49.639 --> 00:34:52.400
<v Speaker 2>location that we call the outer rim, which is also

710
00:34:52.400 --> 00:34:55.519
<v Speaker 2>where tattooing is located. I might dad at the outer rim,

711
00:34:55.639 --> 00:34:57.920
<v Speaker 2>we have found more than one. We found two or

712
00:34:58.039 --> 00:35:03.920
<v Speaker 2>three now sasquatch footprints with a smaller individual's footprint in

713
00:35:04.079 --> 00:35:07.599
<v Speaker 2>the footprint. So again, the first one we found was

714
00:35:07.639 --> 00:35:10.159
<v Speaker 2>a fourteen or so inch print, and there was an

715
00:35:10.239 --> 00:35:12.960
<v Speaker 2>eight inch print right in the middle of the cast.

716
00:35:13.400 --> 00:35:16.400
<v Speaker 2>And then we went back to document the trackway another

717
00:35:16.440 --> 00:35:18.800
<v Speaker 2>week or so later from where these things came up

718
00:35:18.840 --> 00:35:21.079
<v Speaker 2>out of the ravine, and we got thirty or forty

719
00:35:21.159 --> 00:35:23.559
<v Speaker 2>of these prints or whatever, and at least two of

720
00:35:23.679 --> 00:35:26.119
<v Speaker 2>those I think if remember right, Actually this was a

721
00:35:26.199 --> 00:35:28.239
<v Speaker 2>seventeen inch print coming up this is the one that

722
00:35:28.280 --> 00:35:31.679
<v Speaker 2>we have nicknamed Jaba because the place we've nicknamed the

723
00:35:31.679 --> 00:35:34.519
<v Speaker 2>outer rim. That one also had the eight inch print

724
00:35:34.880 --> 00:35:37.639
<v Speaker 2>inside of it. So there's at least two, maybe three

725
00:35:37.840 --> 00:35:40.840
<v Speaker 2>or so or footprints and casts. I cast two of

726
00:35:40.920 --> 00:35:44.280
<v Speaker 2>these that have a larger print. Once a fourteen was

727
00:35:44.320 --> 00:35:47.920
<v Speaker 2>a seventeen with the same eight inch print inside of it,

728
00:35:48.480 --> 00:35:50.239
<v Speaker 2>and I thought, well, isn't that interesting? And of course

729
00:35:50.239 --> 00:35:52.960
<v Speaker 2>I remember when I found that. I was pretty struck

730
00:35:53.039 --> 00:35:55.239
<v Speaker 2>by that. I approached you, Matt, I asked you about it,

731
00:35:55.320 --> 00:35:58.480
<v Speaker 2>and you told me about Area X observations.

732
00:35:59.039 --> 00:36:00.880
<v Speaker 1>Oh yeah, there's a number those that come to mind

733
00:36:00.920 --> 00:36:03.639
<v Speaker 1>where people had seen two that were walking in single file.

734
00:36:03.679 --> 00:36:05.599
<v Speaker 1>I mean I had an experience once me and Tyler

735
00:36:05.679 --> 00:36:08.679
<v Speaker 1>Bounds took out four friends who are four total skeptics,

736
00:36:09.400 --> 00:36:11.800
<v Speaker 1>and they saw two some things that Tyler and I

737
00:36:11.880 --> 00:36:14.679
<v Speaker 1>are pretty certain were sasquatches that were walking single file

738
00:36:14.760 --> 00:36:17.480
<v Speaker 1>like that. But even in Area ACX or a number

739
00:36:17.480 --> 00:36:20.159
<v Speaker 1>of those cases where there would be two individuals like

740
00:36:20.239 --> 00:36:22.920
<v Speaker 1>one right behind the other, but single file, not side

741
00:36:22.960 --> 00:36:26.159
<v Speaker 1>by side and not spread out, but walking in that way.

742
00:36:26.199 --> 00:36:28.039
<v Speaker 1>I think Darryl talked about a few of those when

743
00:36:28.079 --> 00:36:30.079
<v Speaker 1>we had Daryl Collier on the podcast for the first

744
00:36:30.119 --> 00:36:33.840
<v Speaker 1>time a few years ago. There's another number of other

745
00:36:33.920 --> 00:36:35.599
<v Speaker 1>sidings like that that come to mind, where people see

746
00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:38.480
<v Speaker 1>two of them crossing a road together and their single file,

747
00:36:38.559 --> 00:36:40.960
<v Speaker 1>one right behind the other. So, yeah, this article really

748
00:36:41.280 --> 00:36:43.599
<v Speaker 1>reminded me of a number of those stories. But I

749
00:36:43.679 --> 00:36:45.280
<v Speaker 1>was like, yeah, that sounds pretty familiar.

750
00:36:45.800 --> 00:36:47.559
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I thought it was interesting enough that there's another

751
00:36:47.920 --> 00:36:50.679
<v Speaker 2>primate species that seems to do the same thing, and

752
00:36:51.000 --> 00:36:53.639
<v Speaker 2>maybe there's a purpose to it. Maybe there's not actually

753
00:36:54.199 --> 00:36:57.800
<v Speaker 2>those photographs or I have photographs of those prints in

754
00:36:57.960 --> 00:36:59.880
<v Speaker 2>my presentation that I'm giving this year, And I just

755
00:37:00.039 --> 00:37:02.639
<v Speaker 2>gave that presentation this past weekend at the New York Festival,

756
00:37:02.960 --> 00:37:04.960
<v Speaker 2>and I made that joke, you know about you know,

757
00:37:05.119 --> 00:37:07.199
<v Speaker 2>like sand people to hide their numbers, and I realized,

758
00:37:07.559 --> 00:37:10.199
<v Speaker 2>I think some people are taking me seriously on that, Like,

759
00:37:10.440 --> 00:37:12.159
<v Speaker 2>I don't think sasquatches do that. I want to make

760
00:37:12.199 --> 00:37:14.800
<v Speaker 2>that very clear. I don't think sasquatches are trying to

761
00:37:14.920 --> 00:37:18.440
<v Speaker 2>hide their numbers by doing it. It's literally just a joke,

762
00:37:18.679 --> 00:37:20.440
<v Speaker 2>and you know it's not very good. You can tell

763
00:37:20.480 --> 00:37:21.559
<v Speaker 2>that because I said it.

764
00:37:21.840 --> 00:37:23.639
<v Speaker 3>Hum it reached.

765
00:37:24.039 --> 00:37:26.679
<v Speaker 1>We just talked about the Julie Davis siding a couple

766
00:37:26.800 --> 00:37:29.840
<v Speaker 1>episodes ago in Colorado where she had seen, you know,

767
00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:32.280
<v Speaker 1>the big adult standing behind her tent and then as

768
00:37:32.320 --> 00:37:34.480
<v Speaker 1>it turned to leave, there was a smaller one immediately

769
00:37:34.599 --> 00:37:36.880
<v Speaker 1>behind it that was obscured when she was looking. I'm

770
00:37:36.880 --> 00:37:38.760
<v Speaker 1>sure it wasn't hiding, but that was just how they

771
00:37:38.800 --> 00:37:41.000
<v Speaker 1>were moving. But in that case, yeah, it was kind

772
00:37:41.039 --> 00:37:44.039
<v Speaker 1>of hiding its numbers, so to speak. But it is

773
00:37:44.159 --> 00:37:47.280
<v Speaker 1>a common theme in a lot of sidings or citing

774
00:37:47.360 --> 00:37:49.239
<v Speaker 1>claims where there are multiple sasquatches.

775
00:37:49.760 --> 00:37:52.360
<v Speaker 2>But I spoke to a witness just a few weeks ago,

776
00:37:52.480 --> 00:37:55.039
<v Speaker 2>like a month or so ago, and this gentleman had

777
00:37:55.320 --> 00:37:57.159
<v Speaker 2>two of these things walk in front of the of

778
00:37:57.280 --> 00:38:00.119
<v Speaker 2>his car in the Blue Mountains, and I don't I

779
00:38:00.159 --> 00:38:01.800
<v Speaker 2>mentioned this on the show or not after I spoke

780
00:38:01.800 --> 00:38:05.039
<v Speaker 2>to him, but he interpreted them as a male and

781
00:38:05.199 --> 00:38:08.679
<v Speaker 2>female and they were holding hands, walking side by side.

782
00:38:09.079 --> 00:38:11.159
<v Speaker 2>And I kind of chuckled when he told me that,

783
00:38:11.239 --> 00:38:12.639
<v Speaker 2>and he goes, yeah, I get it, but that's what

784
00:38:12.679 --> 00:38:15.880
<v Speaker 2>they were doing. Then they started looking around, and sure enough,

785
00:38:15.960 --> 00:38:17.320
<v Speaker 2>that's a that's a primate behavior.

786
00:38:17.920 --> 00:38:21.639
<v Speaker 1>Really, That's when I've never heard attributed to sasquatches.

787
00:38:22.039 --> 00:38:23.360
<v Speaker 3>I've heard it a couple of times. You know. I

788
00:38:23.480 --> 00:38:27.679
<v Speaker 3>heard this guy I talked to you. It's got another

789
00:38:27.840 --> 00:38:30.960
<v Speaker 3>weird one. He was like Carrie Stainer. He was the

790
00:38:31.199 --> 00:38:36.559
<v Speaker 3>guy that murdered the family out of Yosemite, the groundskeeper

791
00:38:36.599 --> 00:38:38.800
<v Speaker 3>guy at the lodge. He was the guy in court

792
00:38:38.840 --> 00:38:40.360
<v Speaker 3>trying to get off stading. He was crazy because he

793
00:38:40.599 --> 00:38:43.280
<v Speaker 3>believed in bigfoot. I was talking to that guy. I

794
00:38:43.320 --> 00:38:44.440
<v Speaker 3>was supposed to go do On to meet him when

795
00:38:44.440 --> 00:38:47.320
<v Speaker 3>I was dropping down south and I was going to

796
00:38:47.400 --> 00:38:50.159
<v Speaker 3>go go swing by Usemite and see him. Because he

797
00:38:50.320 --> 00:38:52.760
<v Speaker 3>saw a family of four and it was a male

798
00:38:52.880 --> 00:38:55.079
<v Speaker 3>female and two smaller ones. And he said that they

799
00:38:55.159 --> 00:38:57.159
<v Speaker 3>walked in order of size and they were all holding

800
00:38:57.280 --> 00:39:01.400
<v Speaker 3>hands going across the meadow. That's coming from a crazy murderer.

801
00:39:01.559 --> 00:39:07.360
<v Speaker 2>So I don't want to derail the conversation too much

802
00:39:07.440 --> 00:39:11.239
<v Speaker 2>with this question, Bobo, but just estimate right now, how

803
00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:13.119
<v Speaker 2>many murderers have you spoken to.

804
00:39:13.840 --> 00:39:16.760
<v Speaker 3>And I've talked to that I know of a lot?

805
00:39:17.519 --> 00:39:20.159
<v Speaker 2>Is it like a lot, like six, because that seems

806
00:39:20.199 --> 00:39:20.719
<v Speaker 2>like a lot to me.

807
00:39:21.119 --> 00:39:21.559
<v Speaker 3>More than that?

808
00:39:22.119 --> 00:39:23.800
<v Speaker 2>More than that? Okay, a dozen?

809
00:39:23.920 --> 00:39:25.840
<v Speaker 3>Maybe? Oh more than that?

810
00:39:26.679 --> 00:39:27.000
<v Speaker 2>Really?

811
00:39:27.679 --> 00:39:30.519
<v Speaker 3>Yeah? Not not good friends mine, but just you know.

812
00:39:30.760 --> 00:39:33.000
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, no I didn't. I'm not implying like buddies

813
00:39:33.039 --> 00:39:34.440
<v Speaker 2>that you could, you know, go get a beer with

814
00:39:34.599 --> 00:39:37.880
<v Speaker 2>or something. Yeah, I live in Humble, A good point,

815
00:39:38.159 --> 00:39:40.880
<v Speaker 2>the dark underbelly of California. Yeah, even though it's up

816
00:39:40.880 --> 00:39:41.199
<v Speaker 2>on top.

817
00:39:41.880 --> 00:39:43.800
<v Speaker 3>Some of them. I was pretty surprised, like, dang, that

818
00:39:43.840 --> 00:39:47.519
<v Speaker 3>guy killed somebody, you know, and then I'd be pretty surprised.

819
00:39:47.679 --> 00:39:48.760
<v Speaker 2>But not that Yosemite guy.

820
00:39:49.639 --> 00:39:51.920
<v Speaker 3>I didn't know. I knew he was weird, but I uh.

821
00:39:52.480 --> 00:39:55.519
<v Speaker 3>I talked him on the phone two times and wrote.

822
00:39:55.880 --> 00:39:58.599
<v Speaker 3>We wrote a letter back and forth. Once he wrote me,

823
00:39:58.679 --> 00:40:00.639
<v Speaker 3>I wrote him, and he wrote me back. Then he

824
00:40:00.679 --> 00:40:01.679
<v Speaker 3>got then he got arrested.

825
00:40:02.199 --> 00:40:04.760
<v Speaker 1>I've never heard of that. Also, love the idea of

826
00:40:04.840 --> 00:40:07.880
<v Speaker 1>Bobo like writing letters the dearest wild Man of you.

827
00:40:11.760 --> 00:40:15.960
<v Speaker 2>You know, Bubo can only write in calligraphy, right, dude,

828
00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:21.000
<v Speaker 2>My handwriting is poor that your cligraphy is beautiful. That's

829
00:40:21.000 --> 00:40:22.679
<v Speaker 2>how you can tell Bobo wrote the graffiti.

830
00:40:24.280 --> 00:40:27.719
<v Speaker 3>Oh yeah, well the spray paint can I'm yeah, I'm

831
00:40:28.000 --> 00:40:29.079
<v Speaker 3>beautiful lettering.

832
00:40:31.119 --> 00:40:34.119
<v Speaker 2>Stay tuned for more Bigfoot and Beyond with Cliff and

833
00:40:34.199 --> 00:40:43.320
<v Speaker 2>Bobo will be right back after these messages. Okay, well,

834
00:40:43.360 --> 00:40:45.519
<v Speaker 2>why don't we hop onto the next story here or

835
00:40:45.599 --> 00:40:46.519
<v Speaker 2>the next topic.

836
00:40:47.000 --> 00:40:50.719
<v Speaker 3>Okay, yeah, we had from science uh, science news, we

837
00:40:50.840 --> 00:40:54.320
<v Speaker 3>had early primates primarily inhabited cold and temperate climates. News

838
00:40:54.360 --> 00:40:57.840
<v Speaker 3>studies suggests. It just goes on to say that we always,

839
00:40:58.039 --> 00:40:59.800
<v Speaker 3>you know, through textbooks and as we grow up learning

840
00:40:59.840 --> 00:41:04.679
<v Speaker 3>things about human expansions, always suggests within the warm tropical forests,

841
00:41:05.199 --> 00:41:08.480
<v Speaker 3>in the real temperate zones. But they actually, the new

842
00:41:08.519 --> 00:41:11.679
<v Speaker 3>research shows they went north in the colder climates more

843
00:41:11.719 --> 00:41:13.400
<v Speaker 3>than they thought. Take it through it.

844
00:41:14.000 --> 00:41:16.199
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, it looked like they dealt with hot summers and

845
00:41:16.360 --> 00:41:19.519
<v Speaker 1>freezing winners, but the adaptations were for those freezing winners,

846
00:41:19.599 --> 00:41:23.039
<v Speaker 1>so you know, they weren't adapted to constant warm climates,

847
00:41:23.360 --> 00:41:25.960
<v Speaker 1>but rather their adaptations were to the cold that was

848
00:41:26.039 --> 00:41:29.119
<v Speaker 1>punctuated by warm times of the year, which is you know,

849
00:41:29.360 --> 00:41:32.840
<v Speaker 1>that's a description most of Sasquatch habitat in North America.

850
00:41:33.000 --> 00:41:35.519
<v Speaker 1>Like even you get up in North as you guys know,

851
00:41:35.760 --> 00:41:37.559
<v Speaker 1>like it gets pretty hot in the summer in the

852
00:41:37.599 --> 00:41:40.280
<v Speaker 1>Pacific Northwest, even though you have cold winters and it's

853
00:41:40.320 --> 00:41:42.079
<v Speaker 1>hot in Montana. I mean, there's a lot of these

854
00:41:42.079 --> 00:41:44.880
<v Speaker 1>places they have brutal winners where it's hot during the summer.

855
00:41:45.440 --> 00:41:47.559
<v Speaker 2>You know what's interesting about this article as well is

856
00:41:47.559 --> 00:41:50.119
<v Speaker 2>as the authors were suggesting that some of these early

857
00:41:50.239 --> 00:41:54.320
<v Speaker 2>primates may have had something like a hibernation like strategy

858
00:41:54.960 --> 00:41:58.320
<v Speaker 2>to survive the freezing winners. And there was another article

859
00:41:58.400 --> 00:42:00.039
<v Speaker 2>I submitted at some point, or did I submit, and

860
00:42:00.119 --> 00:42:04.719
<v Speaker 2>I should have if I didn't, about hominins perhaps having

861
00:42:04.840 --> 00:42:10.119
<v Speaker 2>some sort of hibernation or toper sort of behavior as well.

862
00:42:10.639 --> 00:42:14.880
<v Speaker 2>There's some evidence now that some of VERI was it Heidelbergensis.

863
00:42:15.400 --> 00:42:17.360
<v Speaker 2>Did you read that? Did I submit this? I should have.

864
00:42:17.440 --> 00:42:19.039
<v Speaker 3>If I didn't, I don't remember it.

865
00:42:19.519 --> 00:42:21.320
<v Speaker 1>We talked about it, but I haven't read the article.

866
00:42:21.320 --> 00:42:23.559
<v Speaker 1>I don't think it ever got submitted, so we'll definitely

867
00:42:23.639 --> 00:42:25.280
<v Speaker 1>have to cover that. But we did talk about it,

868
00:42:25.320 --> 00:42:27.719
<v Speaker 1>which kind of tied back into this because it's like, Yeah,

869
00:42:27.719 --> 00:42:31.840
<v Speaker 1>if the ancestors of all primates had this adaptation, then

870
00:42:32.199 --> 00:42:35.320
<v Speaker 1>you'd expect it to be conserved to some degree, even

871
00:42:35.320 --> 00:42:38.280
<v Speaker 1>if it's latent, because it looks like there are still

872
00:42:38.400 --> 00:42:43.920
<v Speaker 1>some extant primates like Madagascar's dwarf flamers that do hibernate

873
00:42:44.000 --> 00:42:47.280
<v Speaker 1>to survive winter scarcity, so it's been retained in some

874
00:42:47.480 --> 00:42:50.840
<v Speaker 1>lineages but maybe it is something that is latent and

875
00:42:50.960 --> 00:42:53.639
<v Speaker 1>that the primate line still has a capacity for who knows.

876
00:42:54.239 --> 00:42:56.119
<v Speaker 2>I think so, man, because I don't know about you guys,

877
00:42:56.199 --> 00:42:58.719
<v Speaker 2>but I don't. I just don't have the urge to

878
00:42:58.840 --> 00:43:00.920
<v Speaker 2>go do a bunch of stuff during winter, you know.

879
00:43:01.079 --> 00:43:04.519
<v Speaker 2>I mean I always assumed it was something related to

880
00:43:04.679 --> 00:43:06.360
<v Speaker 2>like sunlight and all that sort of stuff, you know,

881
00:43:06.519 --> 00:43:09.960
<v Speaker 2>like the seasonal depression thing or whatever else, you know,

882
00:43:10.079 --> 00:43:13.000
<v Speaker 2>but I don't really I don't really get seasonal depression

883
00:43:13.039 --> 00:43:15.800
<v Speaker 2>so much. I just certainly feel more lethargic, though, I

884
00:43:15.880 --> 00:43:19.119
<v Speaker 2>will say that. And I've often wondered if sasquatches, and

885
00:43:19.480 --> 00:43:21.719
<v Speaker 2>I don't think sasquatches, you know, they hibernate or anything

886
00:43:21.800 --> 00:43:24.679
<v Speaker 2>like that, because there's a fair number of sightings during

887
00:43:24.719 --> 00:43:26.960
<v Speaker 2>the winter, and I find tracks during the winter all

888
00:43:27.000 --> 00:43:29.920
<v Speaker 2>winter long. So I don't think they're hibernating. But it

889
00:43:30.039 --> 00:43:32.719
<v Speaker 2>makes sense to some degree. And I don't have any

890
00:43:32.840 --> 00:43:34.960
<v Speaker 2>data on this, but it just makes sense that they

891
00:43:35.000 --> 00:43:38.960
<v Speaker 2>would probably limit their activity to some degree during the

892
00:43:39.039 --> 00:43:42.880
<v Speaker 2>winter time. Certainly they restrict their range, I would imagine,

893
00:43:42.920 --> 00:43:47.039
<v Speaker 2>but it makes sense that perhaps they would maybe maybe

894
00:43:47.039 --> 00:43:50.320
<v Speaker 2>their metabolism slows or something like that, because their diet

895
00:43:50.440 --> 00:43:53.760
<v Speaker 2>would be constricted and their territory would be constricted, and

896
00:43:54.320 --> 00:43:57.280
<v Speaker 2>makes sense that their activity may also be constricted to

897
00:43:57.320 --> 00:43:57.800
<v Speaker 2>some degree.

898
00:43:58.320 --> 00:44:00.280
<v Speaker 1>God, wouldn't that be wild if there was a link

899
00:44:00.360 --> 00:44:05.440
<v Speaker 1>between you know, seasonal effective disorder and some latent drive

900
00:44:05.840 --> 00:44:09.400
<v Speaker 1>to hibernate and that's why motivation plummets and you know,

901
00:44:09.519 --> 00:44:12.880
<v Speaker 1>the desire to move around or you know, any of

902
00:44:12.920 --> 00:44:15.360
<v Speaker 1>those sort of drives that we have that seem to

903
00:44:15.440 --> 00:44:18.639
<v Speaker 1>be depleted during the winter. We're actually tied to ancient

904
00:44:18.679 --> 00:44:22.000
<v Speaker 1>survival strategies. That to me is very plausible. I'm not

905
00:44:22.039 --> 00:44:25.280
<v Speaker 1>saying it is, but like if some findings came out

906
00:44:25.320 --> 00:44:27.400
<v Speaker 1>that proved that, I be like, oh, yeah, that tracks.

907
00:44:27.880 --> 00:44:30.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, that's very interesting. And of course, you know,

908
00:44:30.440 --> 00:44:33.480
<v Speaker 2>everybody thinks apes are all tropical, because the only apes

909
00:44:33.559 --> 00:44:37.239
<v Speaker 2>we have now are tropical. We have monkeys that live

910
00:44:37.480 --> 00:44:41.119
<v Speaker 2>in cold climates, and of course mountain gorillas also going

911
00:44:41.199 --> 00:44:44.000
<v Speaker 2>to the snow as well in the high elevations, but

912
00:44:44.360 --> 00:44:47.559
<v Speaker 2>they live in the tropic you know, along the equator

913
00:44:47.599 --> 00:44:50.119
<v Speaker 2>and that sort of thing, so they are also tropical animals,

914
00:44:50.199 --> 00:44:55.159
<v Speaker 2>but we only have a handful of these relic species now.

915
00:44:55.639 --> 00:44:58.960
<v Speaker 2>All ape species that we know of today are relict species,

916
00:44:59.519 --> 00:45:01.960
<v Speaker 2>so it makes sense. And of course, if you look back,

917
00:45:02.599 --> 00:45:05.039
<v Speaker 2>what is it the Miocene, I believe there were hundreds

918
00:45:05.079 --> 00:45:10.440
<v Speaker 2>of ape species widely spread all throughout well Africa and Asia,

919
00:45:10.679 --> 00:45:13.519
<v Speaker 2>in Europe basically, and of course they went into a

920
00:45:13.599 --> 00:45:16.239
<v Speaker 2>colder climates, so it's not that big of a stretch

921
00:45:16.760 --> 00:45:20.519
<v Speaker 2>that sasquatches could have adapted to something like a cold

922
00:45:20.599 --> 00:45:23.599
<v Speaker 2>climate like in northern Russia and then passed over the

923
00:45:23.679 --> 00:45:27.360
<v Speaker 2>land bridge. Even now they seem to be more commonly

924
00:45:27.639 --> 00:45:32.199
<v Speaker 2>encountered in temperate climates than in the tropics, even though

925
00:45:32.199 --> 00:45:35.199
<v Speaker 2>there are some reports in the tropics. But it just

926
00:45:35.320 --> 00:45:38.480
<v Speaker 2>makes sense that, of course that we have this holdover

927
00:45:39.039 --> 00:45:42.679
<v Speaker 2>from these giant megafauna that existed at that time, you.

928
00:45:42.719 --> 00:45:44.159
<v Speaker 3>Know, makes sense.

929
00:45:45.159 --> 00:45:47.960
<v Speaker 1>We will definitely have to find that Heidelbergins's article and

930
00:45:48.320 --> 00:45:51.159
<v Speaker 1>cover that in a future one. Since we did two

931
00:45:51.280 --> 00:45:53.960
<v Speaker 1>cliff articles, I think a good Bobo article to end

932
00:45:54.039 --> 00:45:57.079
<v Speaker 1>on which sounds I was actually intrigued by. It was

933
00:45:57.159 --> 00:46:02.400
<v Speaker 1>this press release about a film that's set to be released.

934
00:46:02.400 --> 00:46:04.079
<v Speaker 1>I guess it's in pre production, so I don't even

935
00:46:04.079 --> 00:46:06.159
<v Speaker 1>know if they've filmed it yet. But a film that's

936
00:46:06.239 --> 00:46:07.960
<v Speaker 1>going to be based on the Osman encounter.

937
00:46:08.719 --> 00:46:11.960
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, that's gonna be rad Yeah, that's what I got

938
00:46:12.079 --> 00:46:17.239
<v Speaker 3>from the well respected site geek Tyrant. It's called.

939
00:46:19.800 --> 00:46:22.239
<v Speaker 2>Sorry both. I didn't mean to laugh over you, but yeah.

940
00:46:22.519 --> 00:46:25.280
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, it's in. The movie is called for Capital F

941
00:46:25.360 --> 00:46:29.000
<v Speaker 3>Capital U. Capital Are for tells a wild Jewish Truish

942
00:46:29.079 --> 00:46:31.119
<v Speaker 3>story of the first big for the abduction, and Frank

943
00:46:31.199 --> 00:46:33.599
<v Speaker 3>Mosley is set to star. I don't know who Frank

944
00:46:33.679 --> 00:46:36.159
<v Speaker 3>Moseley is, but yeah, it's at the Albert Osman abduction

945
00:46:37.039 --> 00:46:39.559
<v Speaker 3>and then he gets tangled up in an unsettling relationship.

946
00:46:40.320 --> 00:46:47.039
<v Speaker 3>I know there's been some porns made of it, what really? Yeah, yeah,

947
00:46:47.119 --> 00:46:49.079
<v Speaker 3>based on you would know that.

948
00:46:50.199 --> 00:46:53.079
<v Speaker 2>I know there. I know there have been because people.

949
00:46:52.880 --> 00:46:56.960
<v Speaker 3>Sent me like links like clips from like pornhub or whatever,

950
00:46:57.079 --> 00:46:59.840
<v Speaker 3>like the or maybe not porn, but like some niche

951
00:47:01.239 --> 00:47:04.320
<v Speaker 3>for kind of poor insider. Something was like, yeah, I

952
00:47:04.360 --> 00:47:06.679
<v Speaker 3>didn't say awesome, it was like it was you know,

953
00:47:07.480 --> 00:47:08.599
<v Speaker 3>it was based on that.

954
00:47:09.880 --> 00:47:13.320
<v Speaker 2>It was obviously awesoman though it have to be that.

955
00:47:13.400 --> 00:47:15.599
<v Speaker 3>Say, this is gonna be a blend of surreal horror,

956
00:47:15.679 --> 00:47:19.000
<v Speaker 3>intimate drama, and crypto mythology like we've never seen before.

957
00:47:19.679 --> 00:47:20.239
<v Speaker 2>That's correct.

958
00:47:21.400 --> 00:47:24.159
<v Speaker 3>In nineteen twenty four, a lonely logger seeking gold and

959
00:47:24.199 --> 00:47:26.519
<v Speaker 3>a fresh start a fresh start in the Canadian Willderness,

960
00:47:26.559 --> 00:47:28.760
<v Speaker 3>but instead of striking it rich Albert finds himself violently

961
00:47:28.800 --> 00:47:30.960
<v Speaker 3>abducted by a Sasquatch and drag to its cave, where

962
00:47:31.000 --> 00:47:33.679
<v Speaker 3>he meets the creature's mate and their daughter. What unfolds

963
00:47:33.800 --> 00:47:36.159
<v Speaker 3>is the descent into isolation, primal rituals, and what the

964
00:47:36.199 --> 00:47:40.400
<v Speaker 3>film describes as forbidden intimacy and an active creation.

965
00:47:42.559 --> 00:47:45.800
<v Speaker 1>I'm very glad to be counted among Bobo's friends, but

966
00:47:45.920 --> 00:47:48.199
<v Speaker 1>now I'm glad to not be the sort of friend

967
00:47:48.239 --> 00:47:51.280
<v Speaker 1>that these these clips that you're referring to get shared.

968
00:47:51.039 --> 00:47:54.920
<v Speaker 3>Amongst not my friends. I mean I just I'd give

969
00:47:54.960 --> 00:47:56.920
<v Speaker 3>them sent to like my page or whatever.

970
00:47:57.119 --> 00:48:01.440
<v Speaker 2>Just random strangers sitting you, Yeah, check this out.

971
00:48:01.639 --> 00:48:03.480
<v Speaker 3>Like they'd be like, they'd be like laughing, going look

972
00:48:03.519 --> 00:48:05.199
<v Speaker 3>at this. Have you seen this one? Have you seen

973
00:48:05.239 --> 00:48:06.639
<v Speaker 3>that one? I'm like, I haven't seen any of them.

974
00:48:07.199 --> 00:48:09.639
<v Speaker 2>The article is apparently that the filmmakers are aiming to

975
00:48:09.760 --> 00:48:14.039
<v Speaker 2>avoid a campy or irreverent treatment. They want to grounded

976
00:48:14.159 --> 00:48:15.480
<v Speaker 2>sincere sensibility.

977
00:48:16.400 --> 00:48:16.599
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

978
00:48:17.119 --> 00:48:20.280
<v Speaker 2>I love that far Oh goodness, But.

979
00:48:20.440 --> 00:48:23.840
<v Speaker 3>Uh, they're going to explore their visceral themes of desire, otherness,

980
00:48:24.239 --> 00:48:27.719
<v Speaker 3>belongingness with a note within the no holds barred genre framework.

981
00:48:29.800 --> 00:48:31.920
<v Speaker 2>Well that's a new take, it says.

982
00:48:32.559 --> 00:48:35.559
<v Speaker 3>At its core, the film examines masculinity and sexuality under

983
00:48:35.599 --> 00:48:38.280
<v Speaker 3>pressure and the quiet horror of watching something truly other.

984
00:48:38.880 --> 00:48:42.480
<v Speaker 3>It explores how isolation distortces perception, and how captivity, dependency,

985
00:48:42.519 --> 00:48:44.480
<v Speaker 3>and desire blurred together when you have no one left

986
00:48:44.559 --> 00:48:45.360
<v Speaker 3>and nowhere else to go.

987
00:48:46.079 --> 00:48:48.440
<v Speaker 1>Well, it seems like, you know, he was never explicit

988
00:48:48.519 --> 00:48:53.679
<v Speaker 1>about that, but John Green did say in multiple interviews

989
00:48:54.039 --> 00:48:57.320
<v Speaker 1>I've heard him say it more than once that he

990
00:48:57.519 --> 00:49:01.920
<v Speaker 1>felt like Austin was trying to intimate him, that he

991
00:49:02.119 --> 00:49:05.920
<v Speaker 1>was abducted to be a mate for the juvenile female,

992
00:49:05.960 --> 00:49:08.000
<v Speaker 1>but that he never like came out and said that.

993
00:49:08.519 --> 00:49:11.360
<v Speaker 1>But you Green somehow got that impression that like, oh,

994
00:49:11.440 --> 00:49:14.239
<v Speaker 1>the old man must have. He might have said that

995
00:49:14.360 --> 00:49:17.480
<v Speaker 1>in his affidavit, something like, you know, maybe they wanted

996
00:49:17.519 --> 00:49:20.039
<v Speaker 1>me to take her away to a better lifestyle or

997
00:49:20.079 --> 00:49:22.280
<v Speaker 1>something like that, but it was never explicit.

998
00:49:22.960 --> 00:49:26.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, Roger got the same impression. When Roger Patterson interviewed.

999
00:49:26.559 --> 00:49:29.440
<v Speaker 1>Sounds like these filmmakers picked up on that one element

1000
00:49:29.480 --> 00:49:30.800
<v Speaker 1>and thought there's a story there.

1001
00:49:32.000 --> 00:49:35.280
<v Speaker 2>I thought, so, well, that's a pretty common trope, you know,

1002
00:49:35.360 --> 00:49:39.360
<v Speaker 2>with apes subducting people for sexual purposes and such, you know.

1003
00:49:39.519 --> 00:49:42.199
<v Speaker 3>Or anything's due, right, do you know? I ca't. We've

1004
00:49:42.199 --> 00:49:44.960
<v Speaker 3>Oustmin's rest had done like a hundred times already, Like

1005
00:49:45.039 --> 00:49:47.159
<v Speaker 3>that's so obvious, just a great one. I mean, it's

1006
00:49:47.199 --> 00:49:53.199
<v Speaker 3>just it's all there lust adventure. Yeah, there is.

1007
00:49:53.199 --> 00:49:56.159
<v Speaker 1>Almost like a reverse sort of like King Kong element

1008
00:49:56.760 --> 00:49:57.719
<v Speaker 1>in the Osmin story.

1009
00:49:58.480 --> 00:50:00.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, I don't know.

1010
00:50:00.440 --> 00:50:00.679
<v Speaker 3>I may.

1011
00:50:01.000 --> 00:50:03.519
<v Speaker 2>I may actually watch the Ausman story if it comes out.

1012
00:50:04.559 --> 00:50:06.920
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I can't wait to see it. It could be good.

1013
00:50:07.559 --> 00:50:09.159
<v Speaker 2>At least, you know, at least it's not the same

1014
00:50:09.519 --> 00:50:11.880
<v Speaker 2>sort of thing where there's a sasquatch who's been wronged

1015
00:50:11.920 --> 00:50:14.960
<v Speaker 2>and it's going to go slaughter everybody, right, you know,

1016
00:50:15.039 --> 00:50:19.880
<v Speaker 2>at least it's not fat. Stay tuned for more Bigfoot

1017
00:50:19.960 --> 00:50:22.559
<v Speaker 2>and Beyond with Cliff and Bobo. We'll be right back

1018
00:50:22.599 --> 00:50:23.559
<v Speaker 2>after these messages.

1019
00:50:30.360 --> 00:50:32.599
<v Speaker 3>Or was that the size like gorillas? Or there's the

1020
00:50:33.280 --> 00:50:35.920
<v Speaker 3>skull in China may shake up timeline of human evolution.

1021
00:50:36.039 --> 00:50:36.920
<v Speaker 3>They're both good.

1022
00:50:37.639 --> 00:50:38.719
<v Speaker 2>Well, what do you prefer, Bobo?

1023
00:50:39.079 --> 00:50:43.000
<v Speaker 3>Should we do the ancient skull, sure, I can start it. Yeah.

1024
00:50:43.000 --> 00:50:46.519
<v Speaker 3>In nineteen ninety and Hubei, China, they found a skull

1025
00:50:46.559 --> 00:50:49.559
<v Speaker 3>that had been deformed during fossilization, and it was hard

1026
00:50:49.599 --> 00:50:52.559
<v Speaker 3>to gauge what if it was significant or not. But

1027
00:50:52.599 --> 00:50:54.920
<v Speaker 3>then they did a new analysis and indicates the skull

1028
00:50:54.960 --> 00:50:57.119
<v Speaker 3>belongs to an early branch of a sister lineage to

1029
00:50:57.159 --> 00:51:00.079
<v Speaker 3>our species. This finding may shake up the understanding of

1030
00:51:00.119 --> 00:51:02.840
<v Speaker 3>how human evolution unfolded over the past billion years or so.

1031
00:51:03.639 --> 00:51:06.880
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I guess it's been tentatively assigned to Homo erectus,

1032
00:51:07.440 --> 00:51:08.960
<v Speaker 2>which is kind of cool. I mean that that is

1033
00:51:09.000 --> 00:51:12.519
<v Speaker 2>a sister, you know, species to us. And apparently the

1034
00:51:12.679 --> 00:51:16.159
<v Speaker 2>analysis suggests that these features differ a little bit from

1035
00:51:16.199 --> 00:51:19.920
<v Speaker 2>Homo erectus, pushing it towards like an Asian centered hominin

1036
00:51:20.000 --> 00:51:25.519
<v Speaker 2>lineage that would include like Denis Opin's basically, so again,

1037
00:51:25.639 --> 00:51:28.840
<v Speaker 2>our family tree is getting bushier by the moment, which

1038
00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:31.800
<v Speaker 2>is kind of cool. And I think that you're considering,

1039
00:51:32.079 --> 00:51:35.119
<v Speaker 2>especially considering how large Asia is, you know, I think

1040
00:51:35.159 --> 00:51:37.000
<v Speaker 2>that we're going to be there's to be a lot

1041
00:51:37.119 --> 00:51:43.039
<v Speaker 2>of new discoveries all throughout Asia of hominine fossils scattered

1042
00:51:43.079 --> 00:51:45.920
<v Speaker 2>all over the place. That's really going to mean for

1043
00:51:46.079 --> 00:51:49.800
<v Speaker 2>us at least to revise human evolution. Now, of course,

1044
00:51:49.920 --> 00:51:52.039
<v Speaker 2>I want to point out something real fast because I

1045
00:51:52.119 --> 00:51:55.719
<v Speaker 2>do hear a lot of these articles. They have the

1046
00:51:55.760 --> 00:52:00.039
<v Speaker 2>big splash, clickbait sort of titles rewriting human evolution. The

1047
00:52:00.119 --> 00:52:02.840
<v Speaker 2>human evolution is a fact. It is a fact, but

1048
00:52:03.199 --> 00:52:06.880
<v Speaker 2>we're always tweaking it. We're learning more about it, you know.

1049
00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:10.519
<v Speaker 2>And so that's why it's evolution is a theory, the

1050
00:52:10.639 --> 00:52:13.400
<v Speaker 2>theory of evolution, because we don't have all the wrinkles

1051
00:52:13.440 --> 00:52:15.719
<v Speaker 2>worked out of it, and we never will. Probably we

1052
00:52:15.840 --> 00:52:19.920
<v Speaker 2>never will. We're always learning more about it. But articles

1053
00:52:20.000 --> 00:52:23.320
<v Speaker 2>like this are a great example. We know that humans

1054
00:52:23.360 --> 00:52:27.440
<v Speaker 2>have evolved through over time, and now we're learning new

1055
00:52:27.519 --> 00:52:31.320
<v Speaker 2>branches in new places that are unexpected. We don't know.

1056
00:52:31.920 --> 00:52:34.639
<v Speaker 2>We don't know very much in general. I mean, remember,

1057
00:52:35.000 --> 00:52:37.679
<v Speaker 2>like we didn't know that humans evolved at all until

1058
00:52:37.719 --> 00:52:40.079
<v Speaker 2>the late eighteen hundreds, like one hundred and fifty years ago,

1059
00:52:41.000 --> 00:52:45.559
<v Speaker 2>when the first Neanderthal skull was uncovered. And so obviously

1060
00:52:45.599 --> 00:52:48.119
<v Speaker 2>there's be a lot of tweaking to our current model,

1061
00:52:48.559 --> 00:52:50.320
<v Speaker 2>and this is a wonderful example of that.

1062
00:52:51.000 --> 00:52:53.360
<v Speaker 3>Yeah, I wish, I wish there was a they had

1063
00:52:53.480 --> 00:52:55.920
<v Speaker 3>like a digital recreation of it so you can see

1064
00:52:55.960 --> 00:52:58.719
<v Speaker 3>what they're because they say it's like a low like

1065
00:52:59.239 --> 00:53:02.519
<v Speaker 3>of a long, low skull with a receding forehead behind

1066
00:53:02.559 --> 00:53:07.079
<v Speaker 3>a strong bridge brow ridge. And the esteridated brain size

1067
00:53:07.199 --> 00:53:10.400
<v Speaker 3>is the largest so far for any hominint of that era.

1068
00:53:10.840 --> 00:53:13.360
<v Speaker 2>Which falls in line with the Homo long guy or longi,

1069
00:53:13.880 --> 00:53:16.960
<v Speaker 2>or the Denisovans as well. And of course remember Neanderthals

1070
00:53:17.000 --> 00:53:20.320
<v Speaker 2>had bigger brains than we do. Yeah, they just used

1071
00:53:20.360 --> 00:53:23.719
<v Speaker 2>them different, you know. So apparently there are five different

1072
00:53:23.840 --> 00:53:26.480
<v Speaker 2>families or branches, they call them clades, but like the

1073
00:53:26.760 --> 00:53:32.639
<v Speaker 2>five different there are at least five major clades of

1074
00:53:32.800 --> 00:53:36.159
<v Speaker 2>Homo with large brains, diverging from about about a million

1075
00:53:36.199 --> 00:53:40.039
<v Speaker 2>years ago or more Homo sapiens, because we didn't we

1076
00:53:40.159 --> 00:53:43.360
<v Speaker 2>weren't around quite then, you know, but we were lining up,

1077
00:53:43.440 --> 00:53:49.480
<v Speaker 2>you know, Homo loongi and Denisovans, Neanderthals, Heidelbergensis, and homoerectus

1078
00:53:50.119 --> 00:53:52.000
<v Speaker 2>all living in that general area.

1079
00:53:52.400 --> 00:53:56.119
<v Speaker 1>Apparently, as I understated, the oldest human remains, you know,

1080
00:53:56.199 --> 00:54:00.639
<v Speaker 1>anatomically modern human remains in Asia were in the Xeron

1081
00:54:00.760 --> 00:54:03.639
<v Speaker 1>Cave and xeren Dong in China, and those are roughly

1082
00:54:03.840 --> 00:54:06.840
<v Speaker 1>one hundred and ten thousand years old. You know what

1083
00:54:07.000 --> 00:54:10.800
<v Speaker 1>we would consider, you know, anatomically modern Homo sapiens. Now

1084
00:54:11.400 --> 00:54:14.519
<v Speaker 1>that's some research I did about a year ago, referencing

1085
00:54:14.679 --> 00:54:16.840
<v Speaker 1>some things for a presentation I gave last year. So

1086
00:54:17.199 --> 00:54:19.840
<v Speaker 1>maybe there is some older remains or something like that.

1087
00:54:20.039 --> 00:54:24.440
<v Speaker 1>But I think it confuses people because whenever science, and

1088
00:54:24.639 --> 00:54:28.320
<v Speaker 1>very often the popular science media, refers to something as human,

1089
00:54:28.679 --> 00:54:32.159
<v Speaker 1>they're really just broadening that to anything within the genus Homo,

1090
00:54:32.199 --> 00:54:35.599
<v Speaker 1>which is technically correct, but I think most lay people

1091
00:54:35.639 --> 00:54:38.400
<v Speaker 1>when they hear human, they think Homo sapiens. So when

1092
00:54:38.400 --> 00:54:41.280
<v Speaker 1>they read that there's a million year old human skull,

1093
00:54:41.800 --> 00:54:45.360
<v Speaker 1>they think, oh, well, humans were around a million or

1094
00:54:45.559 --> 00:54:49.159
<v Speaker 1>a million plus years ago, which pushes back the timeline

1095
00:54:49.199 --> 00:54:51.000
<v Speaker 1>of Homo sapiens. It's like, no, no, no, it's just

1096
00:54:51.079 --> 00:54:53.320
<v Speaker 1>a different form of Homo, which is a different form

1097
00:54:53.400 --> 00:54:55.920
<v Speaker 1>of human, but it's not human as in terms of

1098
00:54:56.360 --> 00:54:57.760
<v Speaker 1>Homo sapiens sapiens.

1099
00:54:58.480 --> 00:54:58.519
<v Speaker 3>No.

1100
00:54:58.760 --> 00:55:02.679
<v Speaker 2>No, that's very very confused. And that's when you know,

1101
00:55:02.760 --> 00:55:05.559
<v Speaker 2>if sasquatches end up being some sort of hominin species,

1102
00:55:06.840 --> 00:55:09.280
<v Speaker 2>they could be argued as being human and I'm sure

1103
00:55:09.320 --> 00:55:11.360
<v Speaker 2>though the whole forest friend folks are just going to

1104
00:55:11.360 --> 00:55:14.679
<v Speaker 2>see see told you say, yeah, not really, not really,

1105
00:55:14.960 --> 00:55:17.119
<v Speaker 2>But for whatever it's worth, I believe that the oldest

1106
00:55:17.239 --> 00:55:21.519
<v Speaker 2>human fossils are about three hundred thousand years old. But

1107
00:55:21.599 --> 00:55:24.519
<v Speaker 2>that's not Asia. That was in Morocco or northern Africa

1108
00:55:24.599 --> 00:55:25.559
<v Speaker 2>somewhere if I remember.

1109
00:55:25.360 --> 00:55:28.119
<v Speaker 3>Right, Yeah, I was gonna add was where that skull

1110
00:55:28.280 --> 00:55:32.480
<v Speaker 3>was found? Is where we filmed the Urine Chinese Bigfoot episode?

1111
00:55:33.079 --> 00:55:38.719
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, Whoba Province right, We're in Shinoja, Sia National Park.

1112
00:55:39.480 --> 00:55:41.559
<v Speaker 2>I love, you know, I would have to say that.

1113
00:55:41.679 --> 00:55:43.679
<v Speaker 2>I don't get me wrong. I love playing my guitar.

1114
00:55:44.039 --> 00:55:46.440
<v Speaker 2>But if I had college to do over again, I

1115
00:55:46.480 --> 00:55:48.440
<v Speaker 2>don't know if I would major in music. I probably

1116
00:55:48.480 --> 00:55:53.360
<v Speaker 2>a major in something you know, equally useless for making money, paleoanthropology.

1117
00:55:53.920 --> 00:55:55.599
<v Speaker 2>But who knew that I would end up where I

1118
00:55:55.639 --> 00:55:57.480
<v Speaker 2>am today? Though, so I certainly did.

1119
00:55:57.880 --> 00:56:00.800
<v Speaker 3>You didn't need to. You probably would be doing Bigfoot stuff.

1120
00:56:00.920 --> 00:56:01.320
<v Speaker 3>You did. That.

1121
00:56:02.280 --> 00:56:04.599
<v Speaker 2>That's true, that's true, That's very true.

1122
00:56:04.920 --> 00:56:05.079
<v Speaker 3>Yeah.

1123
00:56:05.079 --> 00:56:06.880
<v Speaker 2>I never wish things were different because it wouldn't be

1124
00:56:06.880 --> 00:56:07.320
<v Speaker 2>the same. Now.

1125
00:56:07.960 --> 00:56:11.800
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, well, we do have a host of questions left

1126
00:56:11.840 --> 00:56:14.400
<v Speaker 1>over from our last Q and A session, And for

1127
00:56:14.480 --> 00:56:16.559
<v Speaker 1>those of you who are not pigeons, if you like

1128
00:56:16.679 --> 00:56:20.000
<v Speaker 1>Bobo stories, our last Q and A session saw a

1129
00:56:20.400 --> 00:56:24.840
<v Speaker 1>massive smattering of epic sasquat stories that Bobo investigated. It's

1130
00:56:24.920 --> 00:56:26.840
<v Speaker 1>definitely worth hearing. A lot of the listeners loved it,

1131
00:56:26.920 --> 00:56:30.360
<v Speaker 1>but we probably should get to those overflow questions.

1132
00:56:30.880 --> 00:56:33.400
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, the floodgates opened last time. For sure.

1133
00:56:34.159 --> 00:56:37.239
<v Speaker 1>He launched into an epic series of stories.

1134
00:56:38.920 --> 00:56:40.320
<v Speaker 2>All right, Well, let's go over to the members. Bob

1135
00:56:40.599 --> 00:56:41.360
<v Speaker 2>get us out of here.
