A few 39 00:02:13.960 --> 00:02:16.520 months back, Logan sent me an email and was talking 40 00:02:16.520 --> 00:02:19.400 about a project he was working on in conjunction with 41 00:02:19.520 --> 00:02:23.319 Tide standing. They were putting live cameras up in the 42 00:02:23.400 --> 00:02:26.680 Radium research area in base camp, where I've had my 43 00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:29.400 experiences and tons of other people have had experiences there 44 00:02:29.719 --> 00:02:32.400 while on expedition. I've talked about this a couple of 45 00:02:32.400 --> 00:02:34.599 times over here on this podcast as well as that 46 00:02:34.639 --> 00:02:38.120 Bigfoot podcast with Wayne Well. Those cameras are up and 47 00:02:38.159 --> 00:02:41.960 they are live, and you can now experience what it's 48 00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:46.520 like to be inside the Radium base camp area. Logan 49 00:02:46.639 --> 00:02:48.520 is here to talk about that process, what it was 50 00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:51.000 like to put that app together, get the cameras and 51 00:02:51.039 --> 00:02:53.199 all the other equipment up there, some of the nightmares 52 00:02:53.240 --> 00:02:56.520 that they went through logistically, but they're working fine now. 53 00:02:56.560 --> 00:02:58.360 And the first thing that you're going to hear in 54 00:02:58.439 --> 00:03:01.840 this episode is some from a recent video that Todd 55 00:03:01.840 --> 00:03:05.400 put out because David Avocado Wolf and his son Theaden 56 00:03:05.439 --> 00:03:08.319 were up there on expedition with Todd in the Nordag 57 00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:11.360 area and they had a sighting of a sasquatch. In 58 00:03:11.400 --> 00:03:14.879 addition to that, Logan is going through all the tons 59 00:03:14.919 --> 00:03:17.240 and tons of data that he's collected already from these 60 00:03:17.280 --> 00:03:20.319 cameras running twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. 61 00:03:20.439 --> 00:03:22.520 He actually sent me a clip not too long ago 62 00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:24.719 that he posted up on TikTok. I will have it 63 00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:27.560 posted for you guys over on the sasquatch Otasey blog. 64 00:03:27.719 --> 00:03:31.240 So head over to the website Paranormorialdproductions dot com. Check 65 00:03:31.240 --> 00:03:32.919 out the sasquatch Otta See blog at the top of 66 00:03:32.919 --> 00:03:34.560 the page, and you can see this video that was 67 00:03:34.599 --> 00:03:37.879 recorded from these cameras in the Radium base camp area. 68 00:03:38.400 --> 00:03:40.159 Something threw a rock out of the woods and it 69 00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:43.039 hit the side of one of the campers there. You 70 00:03:43.039 --> 00:03:45.120 could see it clearly on the video. He's got it 71 00:03:45.159 --> 00:03:47.680 slowed down so you can see it as well as 72 00:03:47.719 --> 00:03:50.159 the audio so you can hear it again. It's very 73 00:03:50.159 --> 00:03:52.919 compelling stuff. I know what people think about Todd. I 74 00:03:53.000 --> 00:03:55.199 obviously talk a little bit about that in the episode 75 00:03:55.240 --> 00:03:58.639 in this interview with Logan. Everyone knows I certainly have 76 00:03:58.759 --> 00:04:00.560 my issues with Todd and so some of the evidence 77 00:04:00.599 --> 00:04:02.560 that he's put out there in the past. But I 78 00:04:02.560 --> 00:04:04.639 think Logan's trying to do the right thing here. And 79 00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:06.400 if you guys are interested in it, all you have 80 00:04:06.479 --> 00:04:09.280 to do is check out the Discovering Bigfoot app on 81 00:04:09.400 --> 00:04:12.319 Apple and or Android. You can check out the live 82 00:04:12.400 --> 00:04:14.840 feed and make up your own mind about what's going 83 00:04:14.879 --> 00:04:16.839 on at the radium base camp area. 84 00:04:17.000 --> 00:04:17.519 But enough of that. 85 00:04:17.560 --> 00:04:19.040 I know you guys are ready to get into it. 86 00:04:19.240 --> 00:04:21.040 Logan's on the line, he's ready to go. All this 87 00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:23.920 left for you to do is sit back, relax, and 88 00:04:24.079 --> 00:04:24.759 enjoy the show. 89 00:04:44.759 --> 00:04:46.600 See there's a cut line over there. 90 00:04:46.800 --> 00:04:49.240 And they were at the top of this little ridge 91 00:04:49.240 --> 00:04:52.360 over here, and they'd stopped, and we're talking, and Thayden 92 00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:54.199 came back down the hill when I was halfway up. 93 00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:56.879 Hey Dad, there's a sasquatch over here. So legs are 94 00:04:56.920 --> 00:04:58.800 burning and can't get up the hill fast enough. But 95 00:04:58.839 --> 00:05:02.439 I'm looking at these two really excited and talking and 96 00:05:02.519 --> 00:05:05.759 literally literally clearly having seen something. So I'm gonna start 97 00:05:05.759 --> 00:05:09.000 with mister David Avocado Wolf himself. So it was was 98 00:05:09.040 --> 00:05:11.480 my assessment correct that you just heard me talk about. 99 00:05:11.680 --> 00:05:13.279 Yes, I came up to the top of the ridge 100 00:05:13.279 --> 00:05:13.639 over there. 101 00:05:13.680 --> 00:05:16.279 First, there's a cut line there on the right side, 102 00:05:16.879 --> 00:05:19.040 my left from it was my right side coming this way, 103 00:05:19.079 --> 00:05:21.279 but left from the way we're looking. And I just 104 00:05:21.360 --> 00:05:24.040 laid the bike right down there, and I was waiting 105 00:05:24.040 --> 00:05:28.000 for theadan and and I just saw something black in 106 00:05:28.040 --> 00:05:30.879 the in the bush right here for a while, like 107 00:05:31.120 --> 00:05:33.279 a couple of minutes before Thadan came, and I kept 108 00:05:33.319 --> 00:05:36.199 going it kept getting bigger and then smaller, and then 109 00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:37.040 bigger and then small. 110 00:05:37.079 --> 00:05:38.839 I was like, what is that? 111 00:05:39.839 --> 00:05:42.000 And so it looked to me like the head and 112 00:05:42.040 --> 00:05:44.759 then the shoulders up to about right there, all really 113 00:05:44.879 --> 00:05:49.800 dark like black, and it stayed there. So Fadan got 114 00:05:49.800 --> 00:05:51.680 there and I said, you see that, checked that out 115 00:05:51.720 --> 00:05:53.639 right there. So I kind of pointed, got this little 116 00:05:54.000 --> 00:05:55.959 burm right here, this little gully, and. 117 00:05:55.920 --> 00:05:57.240 I said, it's just to the right of that. 118 00:05:57.519 --> 00:05:58.040 Oh wow. 119 00:05:58.360 --> 00:06:00.519 And so that's that's when he started looking at it, 120 00:06:00.600 --> 00:06:02.079 and he's like, yeah, there's something there. 121 00:06:02.279 --> 00:06:03.040 How's your vision? 122 00:06:03.480 --> 00:06:03.839 Very good? 123 00:06:03.920 --> 00:06:07.639 Twenty twenty vision, okay, and theden with the glasses on, 124 00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:10.680 perfect just new glasses, about a year and a half old. 125 00:06:11.279 --> 00:06:12.240 So so you. 126 00:06:12.120 --> 00:06:15.439 Guys saw head and shoulders above trees. 127 00:06:16.360 --> 00:06:18.360 Yeah, it looked to us like bushes over here. I 128 00:06:18.399 --> 00:06:20.879 have to say, because when you're over there, this looked 129 00:06:20.920 --> 00:06:21.399 like bushes. 130 00:06:21.439 --> 00:06:24.120 So it looked like something squatted down, kept peeking up 131 00:06:24.120 --> 00:06:26.839 and then coming back down. I was like, that shadow 132 00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:29.720 keeps getting bigger and then keeps getting smaller, and it's 133 00:06:29.800 --> 00:06:31.839 like and the things like if it was a bear, 134 00:06:31.920 --> 00:06:33.040 would have moved by now. 135 00:06:33.040 --> 00:06:34.360 And it wouldn't have been up right for so long. 136 00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:36.319 Yeah, and it wouldn't. And it just was facing us directly, 137 00:06:36.399 --> 00:06:37.720 was looking right at us like that. 138 00:06:38.040 --> 00:06:39.680 Could could you have if it was a bear, could 139 00:06:39.680 --> 00:06:41.160 you have seen ears at the top of the head, 140 00:06:42.120 --> 00:06:44.319 or how about the proportions of the head to the 141 00:06:44.319 --> 00:06:46.279 shoulders where they wider than a bear, because a bear doesn't. 142 00:06:46.360 --> 00:06:48.639 Yeah, it looked to me like the pictures you see 143 00:06:48.639 --> 00:06:50.720 of the sasquats where there where you see them in 144 00:06:50.759 --> 00:06:53.240 shadow and you just see from the shoulders up here 145 00:06:53.399 --> 00:06:55.680 and it goes like that, so kind of no neck, 146 00:06:55.800 --> 00:06:58.560 big shoulders. I never thought it was a bear, not 147 00:06:58.600 --> 00:07:00.360 even for a second. But theyden, you know, so went 148 00:07:00.439 --> 00:07:01.800 through that that possibility. 149 00:07:01.800 --> 00:07:03.040 But it didn't move. It was there. 150 00:07:03.079 --> 00:07:06.600 I mean, it didn't move its position for at least 151 00:07:06.680 --> 00:07:08.959 three or four minutes, it could have been longer. 152 00:07:09.160 --> 00:07:11.480 And then you can then he went and got you. Yeah, 153 00:07:11.720 --> 00:07:12.920 and then and then you came. 154 00:07:12.879 --> 00:07:13.839 Up to the top of the hill, and then we 155 00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:15.639 can started coming down. So I was like, okay, let's 156 00:07:15.639 --> 00:07:17.360 see if we can keep keep eye. 157 00:07:17.199 --> 00:07:20.759 On this thing as you came down. And then that's 158 00:07:20.800 --> 00:07:22.040 when you saw a movement. 159 00:07:22.639 --> 00:07:24.959 As I came down, I was actually, I don't know, 160 00:07:24.959 --> 00:07:28.240 about halfway down, and I started thinking, there's one on 161 00:07:28.279 --> 00:07:32.079 the left, just instinctively, and then that then pretty much 162 00:07:32.160 --> 00:07:34.519 right after that is when you said there's one. 163 00:07:34.360 --> 00:07:36.240 On the left. I don't know if they were the 164 00:07:36.240 --> 00:07:38.000 same one, but it could have been the same one, 165 00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:38.639 but I don't know. 166 00:07:39.319 --> 00:07:42.519 So you came down the hill. First thing is so 167 00:07:42.519 --> 00:07:44.680 I don't even know. David's telling you the sasquatch what 168 00:07:44.680 --> 00:07:45.160 are you seeing? 169 00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:47.879 So first of all, I come in and I hear him say, 170 00:07:48.600 --> 00:07:50.240 you see a thing over there? I'm like, okay, what thing? 171 00:07:50.399 --> 00:07:52.639 I started looking over like in this direction, first off 172 00:07:52.680 --> 00:07:54.120 to the left of us, and I'm like, okay, I'm 173 00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:56.240 looking over there. He's like, no, no, look on to burm 174 00:07:56.279 --> 00:07:57.360 and then to the right a little bit. So I'm 175 00:07:57.360 --> 00:07:59.240 looking looking else and I catch eyes with it and like, 176 00:08:00.439 --> 00:08:02.480 I look at what he's pointing at, and I'm like, okay, 177 00:08:03.560 --> 00:08:06.000 what is that episode? Like maybe it's shadows like you 178 00:08:06.000 --> 00:08:07.879 said when it was like a piece of burned wood 179 00:08:07.920 --> 00:08:10.160 on the tree, Like that couldn't because it wouldn't be 180 00:08:10.199 --> 00:08:11.600 just one piece of burned one in the un tire, 181 00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:14.800 which would be burned. What if it's excres Like, let's 182 00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:15.800 go down and look at it. I was like, no, no, no, 183 00:08:15.879 --> 00:08:17.560 it could be a bear. So I waited for another minute. 184 00:08:18.079 --> 00:08:19.439 I was like, okay, still of that breaks a bear 185 00:08:19.439 --> 00:08:21.639 would have fallen down by now it's little stuff like 186 00:08:21.680 --> 00:08:23.800 they only stand up for about like a minute max, 187 00:08:23.959 --> 00:08:27.199 not even that, And so we're like, okay, that has 188 00:08:27.199 --> 00:08:29.480 to be assassh. She's like it's getting Bigger's like it's 189 00:08:29.519 --> 00:08:33.240 like going down and speaking back up. 190 00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:35.519 And that is not bare behavior there up and come down. Yeah, 191 00:08:35.639 --> 00:08:39.480 they don't bob whatsoever. So now you're talking completely and. 192 00:08:39.840 --> 00:08:41.200 We've seen a bear out here already. 193 00:08:41.240 --> 00:08:43.159 We have seen a bear and this definitely was not 194 00:08:43.240 --> 00:08:45.080 a bear, and you didn't look anything like the bear 195 00:08:45.159 --> 00:08:45.440 we saw. 196 00:08:46.320 --> 00:08:47.879 Like I can, I can attest for you. You've been 197 00:08:47.919 --> 00:08:49.799 around bears your whole life. We used to see them 198 00:08:49.840 --> 00:08:52.240 on a daily basis. You have a tremendous amount of 199 00:08:52.240 --> 00:08:56.039 experience in the wilderness with bears. So what makes you 200 00:08:56.559 --> 00:08:58.159 color wise? What color were you saying? 201 00:08:58.200 --> 00:08:58.720 Jet black? 202 00:08:58.960 --> 00:08:59.519 Jet black? 203 00:09:00.320 --> 00:09:01.879 I mean you could only make up the eyes and 204 00:09:01.919 --> 00:09:03.799 something like that, but you see the general shape, it's 205 00:09:03.840 --> 00:09:05.440 too far. I have to make up the main ship. 206 00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:07.720 Like you can just see shoulders in the head. So 207 00:09:07.759 --> 00:09:09.639 it's like, okay, it's not a bear, it's not burn wood, 208 00:09:09.639 --> 00:09:12.240 it's not a shadow. So be a sasquatch. Then and 209 00:09:12.279 --> 00:09:14.240 it's like mob bobbing up and bowing down side go 210 00:09:14.240 --> 00:09:17.279 over and I get you, yeah, and my dad, there's sasquatch. Obviously, 211 00:09:17.279 --> 00:09:18.799 I run back over. We keep looking at for a minute. 212 00:09:18.879 --> 00:09:21.240 You come in then, as he said, we come on down. 213 00:09:21.559 --> 00:09:23.039 And as David said, then you see one on the 214 00:09:23.120 --> 00:09:23.399 left of. 215 00:09:23.440 --> 00:09:24.120 Us running by. 216 00:09:24.240 --> 00:09:26.399 Well, let's let's hold on a second here. So when 217 00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:28.159 I got to the top though, it wasn't there anymore. 218 00:09:28.840 --> 00:09:29.759 No, it was still there. 219 00:09:29.919 --> 00:09:30.559 It was still there. 220 00:09:30.600 --> 00:09:31.559 You guys were still seeing it. 221 00:09:31.720 --> 00:09:33.080 Yes, yeah. 222 00:09:33.399 --> 00:09:35.840 And then shortly thereafter I was like, I got to 223 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:37.320 try to keep an eye on it, and I kind 224 00:09:37.320 --> 00:09:39.679 of lost track of it as I was coming down. 225 00:09:39.559 --> 00:09:40.080 On your bike. 226 00:09:40.120 --> 00:09:42.159 I'm going to watch the road, look up, watch. 227 00:09:42.000 --> 00:09:43.799 The yeah, and I really try to keep an eye 228 00:09:43.879 --> 00:09:46.480 on it. And so I couldn't tell like it it 229 00:09:46.879 --> 00:09:48.519 to me. It didn't seem like it crossed the road. 230 00:09:48.519 --> 00:09:51.080 It seemed like it backed up into the bush over there. 231 00:09:51.080 --> 00:09:52.279 That's that's what it looked like to me. 232 00:09:52.480 --> 00:09:52.840 Okay. 233 00:09:53.039 --> 00:09:55.480 But then very quickly right after, you know, I was 234 00:09:55.480 --> 00:09:59.440 getting really close. That's when you came up and and 235 00:09:59.519 --> 00:10:01.639 I like, oh, maybe there's something happening to the left. 236 00:10:01.639 --> 00:10:03.320 There's just something hit me instinct dely to look to 237 00:10:03.360 --> 00:10:05.559 the left. And then that's when we had that incident 238 00:10:05.559 --> 00:10:07.840 where in the corner of my eye, just to be 239 00:10:07.879 --> 00:10:11.279 perfectly honest, I saw, like, to me, these things have 240 00:10:11.360 --> 00:10:13.960 a reality distortion field around them or something like that. 241 00:10:14.000 --> 00:10:15.159 I don't know how else to describe it. 242 00:10:15.320 --> 00:10:18.080 Sure, and I saw that out of the left side 243 00:10:18.080 --> 00:10:19.559 of my peripheral vision. 244 00:10:21.200 --> 00:10:23.639 And then I looked and that's right when you. 245 00:10:23.679 --> 00:10:27.120 Saw it, so that I didn't see anything really, but 246 00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:29.480 I saw you know, I didn't see any figure, but 247 00:10:29.519 --> 00:10:33.360 I saw something shimmery or I don't know how else 248 00:10:33.399 --> 00:10:35.600 to describe it. I think a reality distortion field is 249 00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:38.879 probably the best way to describe it. Yeah, I didn't. 250 00:10:38.919 --> 00:10:41.200 I didn't even so I didn't even know to look. 251 00:10:41.240 --> 00:10:41.759 They just said. 252 00:10:42.000 --> 00:10:45.559 In fact, I was misunderstanding. I thought that they weren't 253 00:10:45.559 --> 00:10:48.200 seen anymore, and I thought David was saying, I have 254 00:10:48.279 --> 00:10:51.039 a perspective on where it is and I just misunderstood him. 255 00:10:51.039 --> 00:10:51.200 Pause. 256 00:10:51.200 --> 00:10:54.320 It's a very exciting moment. These guys are literally lit 257 00:10:54.720 --> 00:10:56.440 and so am I. I am so happy they've seen 258 00:10:56.440 --> 00:10:59.440 a Sasquatch. It's very fortuitous I wasn't up here, though, 259 00:10:59.440 --> 00:11:01.639 because they had minutes to stand and watch. If I 260 00:11:01.639 --> 00:11:03.879 would have been there, would have been coming down immediately. 261 00:11:04.200 --> 00:11:06.879 And their way was better because this is the setting 262 00:11:06.879 --> 00:11:10.159 that they required. These gentlemen got exactly what they needed 263 00:11:10.159 --> 00:11:13.200 at the same time. And I'm seeing similarities between these two. 264 00:11:13.559 --> 00:11:15.679 That's very, very impressive. These two are like on a 265 00:11:15.799 --> 00:11:18.799 level that's you know, like even though we're talking fifteen 266 00:11:18.840 --> 00:11:21.879 year old and fifty year old, there there's an exceptional 267 00:11:21.879 --> 00:11:24.720 amount of similarities or they have the same things they 268 00:11:24.799 --> 00:11:27.120 enjoy that you know, he did the same thing growing up. 269 00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:29.519 So there's a reason these two people had this sitting 270 00:11:29.559 --> 00:11:30.919 together and that I wasn't there. 271 00:11:31.080 --> 00:11:33.360 I want to welcome our guest back to the show 272 00:11:33.480 --> 00:11:35.879 for his I don't know what appearance this is on 273 00:11:35.919 --> 00:11:39.360 the Sasquatch Odyssey podcast for my friend Logan. Welcome back 274 00:11:39.360 --> 00:11:39.960 to the show man. 275 00:11:40.679 --> 00:11:41.480 Hey, you good to be here. 276 00:11:42.039 --> 00:11:42.759 I'm glad to have you. 277 00:11:42.840 --> 00:11:45.480 I've been looking forward to this conversation because you have 278 00:11:45.720 --> 00:11:48.080 got quite the project going on. You reached out to me, 279 00:11:48.159 --> 00:11:50.120 I don't know, months ago, it seems at this point 280 00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:52.759 you were talking a little bit about this new camera 281 00:11:52.840 --> 00:11:54.799 project that you guys have going on up at the 282 00:11:54.919 --> 00:11:59.480 Radium site. Obviously it's Todd Standing's Bigfoot research area that 283 00:11:59.600 --> 00:12:03.080 I was up in doing my thing last October. Had 284 00:12:03.080 --> 00:12:05.879 a great time up there. It's a beautiful area. I 285 00:12:05.919 --> 00:12:08.360 want to start in the place we should start is 286 00:12:08.440 --> 00:12:10.919 painting the picture for folks. I've tried to do this 287 00:12:11.000 --> 00:12:13.600 as much as I possibly can on the podcast when 288 00:12:13.600 --> 00:12:15.639 I was talking about my time up there, because I 289 00:12:15.720 --> 00:12:18.120 had no idea until I got up to this area, 290 00:12:18.279 --> 00:12:22.320 how beautiful it is, how remote it is, and all 291 00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:25.200 of the amazing things that you experienced while you're up there. 292 00:12:25.320 --> 00:12:28.240 You've been up there many times, you were pro at 293 00:12:28.559 --> 00:12:31.039 navigating this area and radium. Why don't you take us 294 00:12:31.080 --> 00:12:33.759 back to the first time you got to experience radium. 295 00:12:33.919 --> 00:12:37.159 Paint the picture for folks, how remote this place is 296 00:12:37.200 --> 00:12:38.279 and how beautiful it is. 297 00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:42.480 So Yeah, the first time, I guess was September twenty 298 00:12:42.519 --> 00:12:46.320 twenty one. Yeah, I was talking to Todd on the phone. 299 00:12:46.360 --> 00:12:48.919 I was expecting it to be prey remote, didn't really 300 00:12:48.919 --> 00:12:51.720 know what to expect. But it's a good trek away 301 00:12:51.720 --> 00:12:54.679 from Calgary where you land, and basically just like this 302 00:12:54.799 --> 00:12:57.480 big valley in between two mountain ranges when you get 303 00:12:57.519 --> 00:13:01.600 high enough. It's in between these mountain ranges and it's beautiful. 304 00:13:01.759 --> 00:13:06.159 It's nothing but a river and woods, mountains and very 305 00:13:06.200 --> 00:13:11.200 little human population out there. So it's honestly, probably one 306 00:13:11.200 --> 00:13:12.440 of the prettiest places I've been. 307 00:13:13.120 --> 00:13:16.279 How many expeditions have you done with Todd and or 308 00:13:16.399 --> 00:13:18.399 with Kyle. How many times have you been up there 309 00:13:18.440 --> 00:13:21.360 on expedition and had experiences in that area. 310 00:13:21.879 --> 00:13:26.840 I've been out there four times now. The last time 311 00:13:27.000 --> 00:13:30.879 was to do I'd say it's more business, more business 312 00:13:30.879 --> 00:13:33.399 and pleasure, to be honest, but totally four times. I've 313 00:13:33.399 --> 00:13:35.759 been out there like basically once a year since twenty 314 00:13:35.799 --> 00:13:38.159 twenty one. I'm actually slated to go out there back 315 00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:42.159 in September, the end of September, so stoked about doing that. 316 00:13:42.679 --> 00:13:45.360 Anytime you get to go to that area, it is phenomenal. 317 00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:48.799 I can only imagine the anticipation. So let's get down 318 00:13:48.799 --> 00:13:51.200 to the meat impotators of why we're here. Let's talk 319 00:13:51.200 --> 00:13:54.879 about this project that you came up with. Let's talk 320 00:13:54.919 --> 00:13:57.840 about the genesis of this project. We're talking about these 321 00:13:57.919 --> 00:14:00.879 live stream cameras. I've teased people several times on the 322 00:14:00.879 --> 00:14:04.039 show and talked about it. This is your brainchild. This 323 00:14:04.080 --> 00:14:05.919 is something that you and Todd have been working on 324 00:14:05.960 --> 00:14:08.200 for quite a while. Now, take us back to when 325 00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:10.919 you had this idea. Where did the idea come from? 326 00:14:11.279 --> 00:14:12.840 Is this something that just hits you in the middle 327 00:14:12.840 --> 00:14:15.200 of the night and you woke up and started writing 328 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:17.600 notes about Is it something you and Todd came up together. 329 00:14:18.000 --> 00:14:20.600 Give us the picture of how this came to be. 330 00:14:21.279 --> 00:14:23.480 It's a little bit of everything, to be fair, But 331 00:14:23.639 --> 00:14:26.240 I guess the starting point was the last time I 332 00:14:26.279 --> 00:14:27.759 was up there, and I think I talked about it 333 00:14:27.799 --> 00:14:31.679 with you, just being around the campfire and having, in 334 00:14:31.720 --> 00:14:34.600 my opinion, a bigfoot come up on behind me and 335 00:14:35.320 --> 00:14:37.960 slowly creep up on me. If there had been some 336 00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:41.320 kind of camera system there, maybe we would have caught something. 337 00:14:41.399 --> 00:14:41.600 Right. 338 00:14:41.720 --> 00:14:45.080 It came from that, just that whole experience, and it 339 00:14:45.120 --> 00:14:48.120 was life changing to be around something like that. I 340 00:14:48.159 --> 00:14:49.879 think you have to go through it to say that, 341 00:14:50.039 --> 00:14:52.360 but I still think about it all the time. So 342 00:14:53.120 --> 00:14:55.320 Right after that, Todd, I think we should get cameras 343 00:14:55.360 --> 00:14:58.159 around base camp and just see if we can get anything. 344 00:14:58.159 --> 00:15:01.399 I know everyone's kind of like WU on cameras, but 345 00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:05.120 it's all here's hey, everyone says that, but is it 346 00:15:05.159 --> 00:15:08.039 really true? Does anyone really know? I don't think so. 347 00:15:08.879 --> 00:15:12.000 There's no real proof of that other than people say 348 00:15:12.039 --> 00:15:14.679 that like I don't see the heart evident. So I 349 00:15:14.720 --> 00:15:17.120 was like, yeah, I've known Todd well enough. I want 350 00:15:17.159 --> 00:15:21.000 to make this discovery push forward, so I'll look into 351 00:15:21.000 --> 00:15:23.639 getting some cameras and setting them up out here. I 352 00:15:23.840 --> 00:15:26.480 don't mind fitting some of that bill just to help 353 00:15:26.559 --> 00:15:29.159 do that. Maybe we can get some evidence. So I 354 00:15:29.159 --> 00:15:31.080 started thinking about it. A month goes by, and I 355 00:15:31.120 --> 00:15:33.799 was like, maybe we should do this differently and really 356 00:15:33.840 --> 00:15:36.440 try to collaborate on it and make everyone be able 357 00:15:36.440 --> 00:15:40.200 to see this. So that's where my thought process started going. 358 00:15:40.279 --> 00:15:44.080 I started getting into my engineering mind. I'm like an 359 00:15:44.080 --> 00:15:49.000 IT engineer, cyculiability engineer, observational automation. I do a bunch 360 00:15:49.039 --> 00:15:51.399 of different things. So I was like, how do I 361 00:15:51.480 --> 00:15:54.200 make this work? How can I bring this to people 362 00:15:55.039 --> 00:15:59.600 and actually try to grow it in a organic way 363 00:15:59.639 --> 00:16:02.039 to where we could actually grow the system and get 364 00:16:02.159 --> 00:16:06.320 more and more spots and locations and people kind of 365 00:16:06.360 --> 00:16:11.559 collaborating with us. Todd's vision is to have multiple Discovering 366 00:16:11.559 --> 00:16:14.440 Bigfoot research centers where we're doing research, not just on 367 00:16:14.440 --> 00:16:16.480 one spot, like a lot of different hotspots. To me, 368 00:16:16.600 --> 00:16:18.960 this is a step towards that. It's a step towards 369 00:16:19.279 --> 00:16:22.240 actually having data. There's not a lot of data out there. 370 00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:26.720 They're in these private little sections of people that maybe 371 00:16:26.759 --> 00:16:28.519 they'll share a little bit, but it's not a ton 372 00:16:28.600 --> 00:16:30.799 of data. They might go on a podcast and talk 373 00:16:30.840 --> 00:16:33.639 about it, but there's not a ton out there. 374 00:16:34.000 --> 00:16:34.120 Right. 375 00:16:34.200 --> 00:16:37.399 There might be a website with some snippets, and so 376 00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:40.639 I'm trying to get people like real data, real analysis 377 00:16:40.679 --> 00:16:42.960 to look at. How do we get people actually reviewing 378 00:16:43.039 --> 00:16:46.759 footage in this space camp The more eyes on it, 379 00:16:46.840 --> 00:16:49.480 the better. How do we get people to collaborate, How 380 00:16:49.480 --> 00:16:52.000 do we get people to talk about stuff and not 381 00:16:52.240 --> 00:16:54.799 just the same old stuff, same old stories. I saw 382 00:16:54.879 --> 00:16:57.240 a bigfoot and that's the end of it, right, So 383 00:16:57.600 --> 00:17:01.000 that's where I was coming from since about November of 384 00:17:01.080 --> 00:17:05.799 last year, up in tweaking and architecting and building the 385 00:17:05.799 --> 00:17:10.559 front end architecture, the back end architecture, the reliability piece, 386 00:17:11.200 --> 00:17:14.559 trying to work through power, trying to work through how 387 00:17:14.720 --> 00:17:18.759 we automate everything, how we can get people to actually 388 00:17:19.519 --> 00:17:21.720 if they request footage, I can send them a hard 389 00:17:21.720 --> 00:17:24.920 link and they can watch two hour snippets of footage 390 00:17:25.319 --> 00:17:25.920 if they want to. 391 00:17:26.039 --> 00:17:26.160 Right. 392 00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:30.960 So that's more or less division. And honestly, I'd love 393 00:17:31.000 --> 00:17:35.720 to get video footage and have somebody say, because inside 394 00:17:35.720 --> 00:17:37.960 the app itself you can report sighting and it goes 395 00:17:38.000 --> 00:17:40.920 to a database, I'd love to have somebody do that 396 00:17:40.960 --> 00:17:43.319 and I can name it after them, the John Doe Footage. 397 00:17:43.359 --> 00:17:46.880 But yeah, that's the intent. But I think it has 398 00:17:47.279 --> 00:17:50.440 applications beyond that. I think if we could really get 399 00:17:50.480 --> 00:17:53.599 people collaborating and growing this, it doesn't have to be 400 00:17:53.839 --> 00:17:56.680 just like two feeds. It could be fifty feeds all 401 00:17:56.680 --> 00:18:01.279
