00:00:13,439 --> 00:00:16,600
Speaker 1: Until recently, bigfoot was just a fun subject that my

2
00:00:16,679 --> 00:00:20,559
husband and I enjoyed together. We listened to podcasts about

3
00:00:20,559 --> 00:00:24,719
the subject, not really knowing if Bigfoot was real or imagined.

4
00:00:25,679 --> 00:00:29,280
It was intriguing to think of another life form undiscovered

5
00:00:29,280 --> 00:00:33,119
and roaming the woods. The scenery is usually great in

6
00:00:33,159 --> 00:00:37,439
these videos as well. Sometimes we would drive out to

7
00:00:37,479 --> 00:00:40,479
the Bankhead National Forest on the weekend for peace and

8
00:00:40,600 --> 00:00:44,000
quiet and our kids chatting, Oh there goes Mam and

9
00:00:44,079 --> 00:00:47,960
dad again squatching. We talked about what it would be

10
00:00:48,119 --> 00:00:50,280
like to see a bigfoot, but it was mostly a

11
00:00:50,399 --> 00:00:55,439
lighthearted chit chat. At Christmas, we adopted a pitbull Terrier

12
00:00:55,560 --> 00:00:59,240
named Bond. He is an obedient dog and well tempered

13
00:00:59,280 --> 00:01:02,719
with my grand children. He almost never barks at anyone

14
00:01:02,799 --> 00:01:06,359
but strangers. He is a faithful friend and he follows

15
00:01:06,439 --> 00:01:09,920
me everywhere. We had had him for a couple of

16
00:01:09,959 --> 00:01:13,280
months when he began to act strange. I take him

17
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:16,280
out one last time after dark and he would be

18
00:01:16,319 --> 00:01:18,519
ready and excited to go, and then as soon as

19
00:01:18,560 --> 00:01:21,200
the door would open, he would back up and dig

20
00:01:21,239 --> 00:01:25,439
in and refuse to go outside since it's the last

21
00:01:25,439 --> 00:01:28,480
time he'll go out before bed. When this happens. I

22
00:01:28,560 --> 00:01:31,120
have to pull his sixty pound butt out the door.

23
00:01:32,480 --> 00:01:35,879
One evening, I was taking him out around eight thirty pm.

24
00:01:36,239 --> 00:01:38,680
He put up a fuss. The moment the door opened.

25
00:01:39,480 --> 00:01:42,040
He tried running under the chairs on the porch, so

26
00:01:42,079 --> 00:01:45,120
I took him out onto the driveway. Then he tried

27
00:01:45,120 --> 00:01:48,239
to crawl under the vehicle. What's wrong with you? You

28
00:01:48,319 --> 00:01:51,760
beg scaredy cat, I said. I pulled him down the

29
00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:54,439
drive a few feet where there was nothing to tangle

30
00:01:54,519 --> 00:01:59,280
himself in, and he sat on my feet. I continued

31
00:01:59,319 --> 00:02:01,400
to fuss at him. I'm wondering what on earth had

32
00:02:01,439 --> 00:02:03,719
gotten to him, and was trying to get him to

33
00:02:03,719 --> 00:02:07,640
get on with his business. That's when the loudest growl

34
00:02:07,680 --> 00:02:12,080
I ever heard, the deepest, longest howl, burst into the air.

35
00:02:13,199 --> 00:02:17,080
It was so close the sound vibrated my chest. I

36
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:19,199
would have looked for the sores, but the dog, being

37
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:22,759
on a leash, dragged me down the sidewalk into the house.

38
00:02:23,520 --> 00:02:28,000
I'm no delicate, frail little woman. Bond went straight to

39
00:02:28,080 --> 00:02:30,840
the house and into his kennel, and my mind raised.

40
00:02:31,520 --> 00:02:34,319
I checked the doors and windows. I checked on my

41
00:02:34,479 --> 00:02:37,439
kids and they were still in the house. I began

42
00:02:37,520 --> 00:02:39,719
to think about my daughter, who would come home from

43
00:02:39,759 --> 00:02:42,319
work in a few minutes, so I sent her a

44
00:02:42,400 --> 00:02:45,039
text and told her that i'd meet her in the driveway.

45
00:02:46,159 --> 00:02:48,719
My husband worked second shift, so he would be coming

46
00:02:48,759 --> 00:02:52,479
home later. I thought of the large kitchen picture window

47
00:02:52,599 --> 00:02:54,800
not three feet off the ground on that side of

48
00:02:54,840 --> 00:02:58,639
the house. There wasn't any curtains because it faces the

49
00:02:58,680 --> 00:03:03,039
pasture and the woods. Later, when my husband got home,

50
00:03:03,080 --> 00:03:05,800
I met him with a spotlight and I said, Bigfoot

51
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:10,560
isn't funny anymore. I haven't been able to identify the sound.

52
00:03:11,080 --> 00:03:14,719
I have hunting experience, but I've never heard anything like this.

53
00:03:15,960 --> 00:03:19,280
I started researching animal sounds, but I didn't find anything

54
00:03:19,360 --> 00:03:23,599
remotely similar. The days went on, and I thought of

55
00:03:23,639 --> 00:03:25,960
the nights the boys and I slept in the tents

56
00:03:26,000 --> 00:03:28,080
on the hill in the back of the property when

57
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,919
they were younger, even with my girls once, and how

58
00:03:31,960 --> 00:03:34,319
we walked back at two in the morning because they

59
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:37,680
kept saying someone was walking and throwing things at us.

60
00:03:38,800 --> 00:03:41,840
At that time, my husband and I didn't take them seriously.

61
00:03:43,520 --> 00:03:46,680
I remembered my grandmother, who used to own this property,

62
00:03:47,039 --> 00:03:49,680
and it was so out of character for her to lie,

63
00:03:50,080 --> 00:03:52,560
and even she would tell me to be in by

64
00:03:52,680 --> 00:03:56,000
dark or the boogers would get me. I didn't take

65
00:03:56,039 --> 00:03:59,360
her seriously either, until that night I heard one with

66
00:03:59,479 --> 00:04:03,840
my own ears. I recall the strange behavior of the

67
00:04:03,919 --> 00:04:08,240
deer on our property recently. Once three bucks and two

68
00:04:08,319 --> 00:04:11,319
dos were trotting down the paved road with three cars

69
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:15,159
behind them. Only when the driver honked did they turn

70
00:04:15,199 --> 00:04:17,560
it onto a gravel road that led to the barn

71
00:04:17,680 --> 00:04:21,120
in the woods behind our house. My husband and I

72
00:04:21,199 --> 00:04:24,800
have hit three deers since New Year's Eve. Instead of

73
00:04:24,879 --> 00:04:27,959
crossing in front of us, they tried to run alongside

74
00:04:28,000 --> 00:04:31,319
the cars. One ran into the back of my husband's

75
00:04:31,439 --> 00:04:34,680
truck less than a week ago. It's as if they

76
00:04:34,800 --> 00:04:37,920
think that by being closer to us they are safer,

77
00:04:38,120 --> 00:04:41,680
like the vehicle as some sort of a shield. We're

78
00:04:41,720 --> 00:04:45,680
surrounded by fields, woods and ponds and creeks, but we

79
00:04:45,759 --> 00:04:48,639
are three miles from town and there's never been a

80
00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:51,839
bear report in our county. We are at the front

81
00:04:51,839 --> 00:04:54,759
of the foothills, and they say there are very few

82
00:04:54,800 --> 00:04:59,519
bears in the Bankhead National Forest to the southwest. Now

83
00:04:59,519 --> 00:05:01,879
we know people who say that there are some near

84
00:05:01,920 --> 00:05:05,399
the southeast. But the sound I heard was not a

85
00:05:05,399 --> 00:05:09,800
bear or a wild pig or any kind of cat. Well,

86
00:05:09,839 --> 00:05:13,600
I didn't see anything. I know something big passes through.

87
00:05:14,319 --> 00:05:16,720
I like to believe it only passes through and does

88
00:05:16,839 --> 00:05:20,959
not stay here very long. From time to time, Bond

89
00:05:21,120 --> 00:05:25,560
still refuses to go outside. I'm good with that. I

90
00:05:25,560 --> 00:05:27,360
don't want to share my name. I live in a

91
00:05:27,399 --> 00:05:32,920
small southern community. Bless their bless their hearts. If you

92
00:05:33,000 --> 00:05:34,920
know what I mean, Yes, I know what you mean.

93
00:05:35,160 --> 00:05:39,160
And the creepiest part of this story are the deer.

94
00:05:39,399 --> 00:05:42,720
The behavior of the deer. That is so odd that

95
00:05:42,759 --> 00:05:45,800
the deer would kind of cling close to vehicles to

96
00:05:46,759 --> 00:05:49,639
maybe they, like you said, maybe they think they're safer.

97
00:05:49,720 --> 00:05:53,439
I've never heard that before. That is really that's something new.

98
00:05:54,120 --> 00:05:56,839
And a lot of these bigfoot stories, you know, I've

99
00:05:56,879 --> 00:06:00,680
done hundreds even thousands of them, and that so many

100
00:06:00,759 --> 00:06:04,279
of them are basically with a few variations, the same.

101
00:06:04,360 --> 00:06:07,480
But I've never heard this before. This is a new one,

102
00:06:07,600 --> 00:06:10,720
so it kind of peaued my interest again about this

103
00:06:10,879 --> 00:06:12,759
dear behavior. I'd like to know if any of you

104
00:06:12,800 --> 00:06:16,199
all have heard that, If you've heard about that comment below,

105
00:06:16,759 --> 00:06:20,000
thank you to the writer and bless your heart for

106
00:06:20,160 --> 00:06:26,120
sending the story. It was really good. Thank you, ma'am. Okay,

107
00:06:26,160 --> 00:06:28,279
this is a ghost story that I think you all

108
00:06:28,360 --> 00:06:34,120
will really be intrigued by and interested in and entertained,

109
00:06:34,319 --> 00:06:38,240
which is the purpose of this channel is to entertain you.

110
00:06:39,800 --> 00:06:43,639
In January of nineteen sixty eight, my family experienced a

111
00:06:43,759 --> 00:06:47,639
strange event. What makes it interesting is that we were

112
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:52,279
spread out among three different locations between New England towns.

113
00:06:53,480 --> 00:06:57,720
That evening, my father, my cousin and I were smelt fishing,

114
00:06:57,839 --> 00:07:00,439
which involves sitting in a shack on a rose and

115
00:07:00,519 --> 00:07:04,920
river and fishing through a hole in the ice. Across

116
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,879
town at Augusta General Hospital, my grandfather, who we call Pampy,

117
00:07:10,199 --> 00:07:13,240
was lying in bed and enduring the final few hours

118
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:16,399
of his life. My mother and grandmother were there by

119
00:07:16,439 --> 00:07:20,720
his side. My grandparents' house was in a little town

120
00:07:20,839 --> 00:07:24,560
called Richmond. The house was a large, rambling, two story,

121
00:07:24,680 --> 00:07:28,839
multi roomed home built in the style of the nineteen fifties.

122
00:07:29,959 --> 00:07:33,600
My sister deb was sitting in the kitchen entertaining herself,

123
00:07:33,879 --> 00:07:35,879
and the rest of the adults were in the living

124
00:07:35,959 --> 00:07:40,959
room watching television. At around nine in the evening, my Pampy,

125
00:07:41,120 --> 00:07:44,680
who was coming in and out of consciousness suddenly started

126
00:07:44,759 --> 00:07:49,319
singing a beautiful gospel song about heaven. My mom and

127
00:07:49,399 --> 00:07:52,040
my nanny said that they had never heard it before,

128
00:07:52,160 --> 00:07:56,839
even though they had attended church all their lives. Minutes later,

129
00:07:57,000 --> 00:08:00,319
Pampy had given up the ghost and was pronounced dead

130
00:08:00,360 --> 00:08:05,360
by the doctors. At that same time, in my grandparents' house,

131
00:08:05,480 --> 00:08:08,279
my sister said that she could hear a bird singing.

132
00:08:09,160 --> 00:08:12,360
At first, it frightened her. She ran from the kitchen

133
00:08:12,399 --> 00:08:15,279
too the living room where the adults were, and the

134
00:08:15,319 --> 00:08:19,160
bird's song followed her. Every adult in the room heard

135
00:08:19,199 --> 00:08:23,439
it remarkably. Even my great grandmother could hear it too,

136
00:08:23,600 --> 00:08:26,439
even though she was quite deaf and could only hear

137
00:08:26,680 --> 00:08:31,399
if you spoke very loudly. They listened in silence as

138
00:08:31,399 --> 00:08:34,799
the bird's song passed into the second sitting room, and

139
00:08:34,879 --> 00:08:38,600
from there the noise went upstairs and finally faded away.

140
00:08:39,639 --> 00:08:43,799
To say they were mystified would be an understatement. At

141
00:08:43,799 --> 00:08:47,480
that time, six miles away, as the crow flies, my dad,

142
00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:52,200
my cousin, and I were in our shacks fishing for smelts.

143
00:08:52,720 --> 00:08:55,200
My cousin walked from his shack over to my dad

144
00:08:55,240 --> 00:08:57,240
and me to see if we were having any luck.

145
00:08:57,840 --> 00:09:00,000
And when he went back to his shack, our life

146
00:09:00,559 --> 00:09:05,440
started to brighten. We attributed it to just a gas

147
00:09:05,559 --> 00:09:09,279
lanner needing air, But right then my cousin ran back

148
00:09:09,279 --> 00:09:11,720
to us with a look of fear and confusion on

149
00:09:11,840 --> 00:09:14,840
his face. He told us that when he went to

150
00:09:14,879 --> 00:09:17,919
see us, he left his bucket of fish inside the shack,

151
00:09:18,440 --> 00:09:21,039
and when he went back, the door was open and

152
00:09:21,080 --> 00:09:24,600
the bucket was gone. We were the only ones fishing

153
00:09:24,639 --> 00:09:27,600
on that river. To prove it, there were no footprints

154
00:09:27,600 --> 00:09:31,799
in the snow other than our own. It wasn't until

155
00:09:31,879 --> 00:09:34,879
later that we shared the experiences we had had with

156
00:09:34,960 --> 00:09:38,159
one another and found out that they had occurred at

157
00:09:38,200 --> 00:09:42,000
all the same time. It has been fifty years since

158
00:09:42,080 --> 00:09:44,559
these events took place, and I'm glad I finally have

159
00:09:44,639 --> 00:09:48,159
written them down. Though I still ponder on that night,

160
00:09:48,399 --> 00:09:52,320
I have come to one possible answer. That answer is

161
00:09:52,399 --> 00:09:57,320
one word, pampy. Oh, that's a good story. Maybe your

162
00:09:57,320 --> 00:10:01,279
grandfather was saying goodbye in a way, and God let

163
00:10:01,360 --> 00:10:03,279
him just kind of move around and give you all

164
00:10:03,320 --> 00:10:06,320
the sign that he was leaving. I thought this was

165
00:10:06,360 --> 00:10:08,679
a great story. I kind of I read this cold.

166
00:10:08,720 --> 00:10:10,639
I thought it was going to be a scary ghost

167
00:10:10,679 --> 00:10:13,559
story on the beginning. And I guess to some people

168
00:10:13,600 --> 00:10:15,519
this could be scary, but to me, it was kind

169
00:10:15,559 --> 00:10:19,559
of good. It was kind of a peaceful, how would

170
00:10:19,600 --> 00:10:22,399
you call it, kind of a soft story. I like that.

171
00:10:22,679 --> 00:10:25,159
I appreciate it. Thank you to the writer, and I'm

172
00:10:25,159 --> 00:10:27,840
glad you wrote it down too, because now we all

173
00:10:27,879 --> 00:10:31,519
got to enjoy something that you experienced that you'll remember

174
00:10:31,559 --> 00:10:37,840
all your life. Thank you for that. All right, Bigfoot, Bigfoot,

175
00:10:38,039 --> 00:10:40,320
everybody likes Bigfoot. It's a short one, but it's a

176
00:10:40,399 --> 00:10:45,360
good one. I was raised outdoors in Arizona. In twenty eleven,

177
00:10:45,879 --> 00:10:49,120
my dad and I went elk hunting near Alpine, Arizona.

178
00:10:50,200 --> 00:10:52,120
We had been up there for a few days when

179
00:10:52,399 --> 00:10:56,039
one night I was woke up by something heavy walking

180
00:10:56,080 --> 00:11:00,000
by my tent on two feet right away my hand.

181
00:11:00,000 --> 00:11:02,840
I went from my single action revolver, and as soon

182
00:11:02,840 --> 00:11:05,639
as I had my fingers around if the thing stopped.

183
00:11:06,720 --> 00:11:09,279
It must have heard me. And then right away I

184
00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:12,919
felt like I was about to be attacked. Whatever it was,

185
00:11:13,120 --> 00:11:15,679
it was like it was staring right at me through

186
00:11:15,679 --> 00:11:18,639
the walls of the tent. Well. I let out a

187
00:11:18,679 --> 00:11:21,000
slow breath and I heard it move toward the fire

188
00:11:21,159 --> 00:11:24,320
pit in my dad's tent. As much as I wanted

189
00:11:24,360 --> 00:11:27,360
to get up and see what was moving around, something

190
00:11:27,480 --> 00:11:31,159
told me that that was a bad idea. I clutched

191
00:11:31,159 --> 00:11:34,679
my revolver. I heard the ice chest open, and I

192
00:11:34,720 --> 00:11:38,360
heard this thing rummage through the contents. I heard it

193
00:11:38,399 --> 00:11:40,919
close the lid, and then I listened to it leave

194
00:11:40,960 --> 00:11:44,279
the way it came in the next morning, when my

195
00:11:44,360 --> 00:11:46,960
dad got up, he asked me what I was looking

196
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:50,279
for in the cooler last night. I wanted to tell

197
00:11:50,320 --> 00:11:53,879
him that it wasn't me, that it was sasquatch, but

198
00:11:54,000 --> 00:11:56,120
instead I laughed and I told him I thought it

199
00:11:56,159 --> 00:11:59,120
was him making the noise. He looked through the ice

200
00:11:59,240 --> 00:12:01,720
chest to see if anything had been taken and said

201
00:12:01,759 --> 00:12:05,600
several sodas and candy bars were missing. Asked me if

202
00:12:05,600 --> 00:12:07,720
I was sure it wasn't me, and I finally had

203
00:12:07,720 --> 00:12:11,200
to tell him what I heard the night before. When

204
00:12:11,240 --> 00:12:13,519
I was younger, I always had a feeling of being

205
00:12:13,600 --> 00:12:16,039
watched in the woods, where the hair on my neck

206
00:12:16,080 --> 00:12:19,159
would stand up. I would stop and look around for

207
00:12:19,240 --> 00:12:21,879
a bear or a mountain lion or something. But I

208
00:12:21,960 --> 00:12:25,399
never really put stock in bigfoot or aliens or any

209
00:12:25,399 --> 00:12:29,360
other thing of that nature. But after that night in Alpine,

210
00:12:29,799 --> 00:12:33,240
all that changed. Oh man, that was a good story.

211
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:35,879
Apparently the bigfoot didn't want to hurt you. He just

212
00:12:35,960 --> 00:12:38,799
wanted a candy bar and a coke. That's what he wanted,

213
00:12:38,919 --> 00:12:42,399
and he was gone. So maybe that's a good lesson.

214
00:12:42,480 --> 00:12:45,840
If you're camping, you know bigfoots are or in the area,

215
00:12:46,519 --> 00:12:48,440
leave out a candy bar and a coke and they'll

216
00:12:48,519 --> 00:12:52,120
just walk off in the woods. But I can imagine, seriously,

217
00:12:52,159 --> 00:12:55,600
I can imagine this being a scary event. It's a

218
00:12:55,679 --> 00:12:59,879
very good story, very concise. I appreciate the writer. Thank you, sir.

219
00:13:03,120 --> 00:13:04,919
All Right, we'll end this up with a good ghost

220
00:13:04,960 --> 00:13:09,240
story from Texas. This is a good one. In two

221
00:13:09,279 --> 00:13:12,159
thousand and eight, I moved from Texas to Nashville. No,

222
00:13:12,360 --> 00:13:15,240
it's a ghost in Nashville. Sorry about that. In two

223
00:13:15,320 --> 00:13:18,559
thousand and eight, I moved from Texas to Nashville for work,

224
00:13:19,000 --> 00:13:22,480
and I purchased an old craftsman home. For those who

225
00:13:22,480 --> 00:13:26,799
don't know, East Nashville is in the process of gentrification.

226
00:13:27,960 --> 00:13:30,759
Old houses that were left to the colect are now

227
00:13:30,799 --> 00:13:34,440
being renovated. The neighborhood is so old, in fact, that

228
00:13:34,519 --> 00:13:37,720
Frank and Jesse. James went into hiding there for a while.

229
00:13:39,039 --> 00:13:41,799
At the time, I had two dogs, a Dalmatian and

230
00:13:41,840 --> 00:13:44,440
a Wymaraner. I never knew how to say that word.

231
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:48,559
Why Whymaraner? We mariner? I don't know how to say it.

232
00:13:48,639 --> 00:13:51,519
You know what dogs, the gray dogs with the short tails,

233
00:13:52,360 --> 00:13:54,480
and they slept on the floor next to my bed.

234
00:13:55,080 --> 00:13:56,879
I had been in the house a couple of weeks

235
00:13:56,879 --> 00:13:58,919
when I awoke in the wee hours of the morning

236
00:13:59,039 --> 00:14:03,240
to the smell of smoke. Once I got my wits

237
00:14:03,279 --> 00:14:06,519
about me, I realized it was cigarette smoke. I was smelling.

238
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:10,960
Oh crap, I thought someone's in the house. The dogs

239
00:14:10,960 --> 00:14:14,799
were sleeping peacefully, which meant no intruder, so I went

240
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,679
back to sleep. The next week, I was walking through

241
00:14:18,720 --> 00:14:21,519
the house when I smelled cigar smoked. It was like

242
00:14:21,559 --> 00:14:23,559
I had walked through a cloud of it. But upon

243
00:14:23,840 --> 00:14:28,679
entering the next room, that smell was gone. Two weeks later,

244
00:14:28,720 --> 00:14:30,879
I was chatting with a neighbor who had lived in

245
00:14:30,919 --> 00:14:34,200
the same house on my street her whole life. I

246
00:14:34,200 --> 00:14:36,799
asked her if anyone had ever died in my house.

247
00:14:37,600 --> 00:14:41,279
Oh yeah, she said, mister b He died in the

248
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:45,039
bathtub back in the nineteen fifties. So I asked her

249
00:14:45,039 --> 00:14:49,159
if he smoked. She said, yes, he smoked. He lit

250
00:14:49,200 --> 00:14:52,480
the next one with his last one. Now I was

251
00:14:52,519 --> 00:14:56,000
getting somewhere. I had a ghost with a name and

252
00:14:56,080 --> 00:14:59,679
the nasty habit of chain smoking. As it turned out,

253
00:15:00,200 --> 00:15:03,799
he had some other annoying habits as well. He left

254
00:15:03,840 --> 00:15:06,759
the back door while it'd open one night. As is

255
00:15:06,840 --> 00:15:10,799
true in most neighborhoods that are in transition, safety can

256
00:15:10,840 --> 00:15:14,440
be a street to street affair. This is the case

257
00:15:14,679 --> 00:15:19,200
in East Nashville. Mister B would march around in the

258
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:22,120
attic at all hours, and I couldn't leave dishes in

259
00:15:22,200 --> 00:15:24,879
the sink. If I did, I'd find a cup or

260
00:15:24,919 --> 00:15:29,039
cooking utensil on the kitchen floor the next day. There

261
00:15:29,120 --> 00:15:31,960
was one wall I couldn't hang art on. I'd hang

262
00:15:31,960 --> 00:15:34,159
a picture and the next day it would be on

263
00:15:34,240 --> 00:15:38,120
the floor. It was evident he lived in the attic.

264
00:15:38,799 --> 00:15:42,480
Sometimes i'd hear old timey radio from the nineteen forties

265
00:15:42,519 --> 00:15:45,840
coming from up there. That's where i'd hear him the

266
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:48,799
most of the time, though I would see the occasional

267
00:15:49,080 --> 00:15:53,440
orb zooming around the corner downstairs. By this time I

268
00:15:53,480 --> 00:15:57,000
had become used to it, and then one day both

269
00:15:57,000 --> 00:15:59,519
of my dogs were cowering in my bedroom and they

270
00:15:59,559 --> 00:16:03,000
would not come out. That was the last straw for me.

271
00:16:03,759 --> 00:16:05,559
I went up to the attic and I read him

272
00:16:05,600 --> 00:16:09,399
the Riot Act. He could stomp around all he wanted, opening,

273
00:16:09,480 --> 00:16:12,840
close inside doors and cabinets, and he could play his music,

274
00:16:13,240 --> 00:16:15,320
but he was to leave the front and back doors

275
00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:17,879
closed and locked, and my dogs were not to be

276
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,240
messed with in any way. If you break those rules,

277
00:16:21,480 --> 00:16:23,759
I do everything in my power to get him out

278
00:16:23,799 --> 00:16:28,000
of the house. After that, we had a clean kitchen,

279
00:16:28,360 --> 00:16:33,080
one bare wall, locked doors, and happy dogs. At one

280
00:16:33,120 --> 00:16:35,840
point I had to have major surgery, which led to

281
00:16:35,919 --> 00:16:39,960
a long recovery. My father was retired and bored, and

282
00:16:40,000 --> 00:16:42,840
he traveled from Texas to Nashville to help me out.

283
00:16:43,759 --> 00:16:46,120
He's left in the spare bedroom in the attic that

284
00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:50,559
also acted as my music room. One night, he was

285
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:53,279
shaking away and my dad told me he heard a

286
00:16:53,320 --> 00:16:55,360
male voice tell him that he had to get out

287
00:16:55,440 --> 00:16:59,440
right now. I had told my dad all about mister B,

288
00:17:00,039 --> 00:17:02,679
and my dad said he told mister B to f off,

289
00:17:03,120 --> 00:17:05,200
And the next thing my dad heard was one of

290
00:17:05,200 --> 00:17:09,559
my guitars hitting the floor. I eventually had to move

291
00:17:09,640 --> 00:17:13,079
back to Texas for family reasons, and in the years

292
00:17:13,119 --> 00:17:15,759
I had lived in the Craftsman home, I tried to

293
00:17:15,759 --> 00:17:17,799
bring it back to what it looked like when it

294
00:17:17,839 --> 00:17:21,559
was built in nineteen thirty eight. The guy who bought

295
00:17:21,599 --> 00:17:24,039
it told me that I had wasted my money because

296
00:17:24,079 --> 00:17:26,440
he was going to gut it and then flip it.

297
00:17:26,559 --> 00:17:29,839
What a jerk. As I was walking out the door

298
00:17:29,920 --> 00:17:32,440
for the last time, I told mister B that if

299
00:17:32,599 --> 00:17:36,000
he were so inclined, he should give that your card.

300
00:17:37,759 --> 00:17:42,039
Oh that's great. After I moved, I stayed in contact

301
00:17:42,039 --> 00:17:45,200
with my old neighbors. They told me that the activity

302
00:17:45,240 --> 00:17:48,359
at the house would start and then stop after a week,

303
00:17:48,799 --> 00:17:52,680
and then start and abruptly stop again. I imagine the

304
00:17:52,720 --> 00:17:56,240
workmen witnessing a hammer go flying across the room, or

305
00:17:56,279 --> 00:18:00,759
a lighter just falling over on its own. It was finished.

306
00:18:00,839 --> 00:18:03,720
The house was on the market for six months. If

307
00:18:03,759 --> 00:18:07,400
a flipped house isn't finished and sold in six weeks,

308
00:18:07,880 --> 00:18:10,839
it costs the flipper money. If the TV programs are

309
00:18:10,920 --> 00:18:15,200
to believed, I could just hear mister B slamming a door,

310
00:18:15,240 --> 00:18:18,720
being a disembodied voice from another room saying get out

311
00:18:18,799 --> 00:18:24,039
right now as prospective buyers toward the property. The jerk

312
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:27,599
lost his shirt on that one. Thank you so much

313
00:18:27,640 --> 00:18:31,119
for the stories and you continued enthusiasm for bringing great

314
00:18:31,200 --> 00:18:34,799
content to your listeners. You're welcome. Pay no attention to

315
00:18:34,839 --> 00:18:39,240
the critics. Their words tell you more about themselves and

316
00:18:39,240 --> 00:18:43,279
how miserable they are than any flaws you may have. Well,

317
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:46,400
you know, I think I've I'm going to zero in

318
00:18:46,480 --> 00:18:50,000
on that last paragraph. I think I've run off all

319
00:18:50,079 --> 00:18:54,720
the nasty people, mainly the mean bigfoot people. I have

320
00:18:54,839 --> 00:18:59,559
a smaller audience now, and I'm so happy about that.

321
00:18:59,640 --> 00:19:03,960
What that means is less views, less subscribers, less money

322
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:07,519
that you two pays me. But I would rather. I

323
00:19:07,559 --> 00:19:10,880
would rather it be that way and have just a beautiful,

324
00:19:11,079 --> 00:19:14,480
nice set of people who enjoy these stories and we

325
00:19:14,559 --> 00:19:18,359
can all interact, and I can think about you during

326
00:19:18,400 --> 00:19:20,799
the day and think, oh, man, what a nice bunch

327
00:19:20,839 --> 00:19:24,400
of people follow along with this channel. You know, people say,

328
00:19:24,440 --> 00:19:27,960
don't pay attention to the comments and the meanness. That's

329
00:19:28,000 --> 00:19:31,880
hard to do. I mean, I don't lose any sleep

330
00:19:31,920 --> 00:19:33,799
over it, or I didn't when it used to be

331
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:37,359
that way. It does get under your skin. And you know,

332
00:19:37,960 --> 00:19:40,000
I'd be a mister tough guy if I said, oh,

333
00:19:40,000 --> 00:19:42,480
it doesn't bother me, but it does bother me. But

334
00:19:42,559 --> 00:19:44,880
I would always bite back at most of them or

335
00:19:45,000 --> 00:19:50,039
just ban them from commenting. With all that said, we

336
00:19:50,200 --> 00:19:54,079
have whittled this audience down. We've weeded all those a

337
00:19:54,240 --> 00:19:58,640
holes out and this is the absolute nicest bunch of people.

338
00:19:58,680 --> 00:20:02,839
I've always said, y'all nicest audience on the Internet, and

339
00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:07,119
I mean it, and now it's nothing but nice people.

340
00:20:07,799 --> 00:20:09,960
You can tell if you read through the comment section,

341
00:20:10,119 --> 00:20:14,119
you can tell it. People are so nice. They interact

342
00:20:14,160 --> 00:20:17,160
with each other and they you know, I'm able to

343
00:20:17,200 --> 00:20:19,799
answer some of the comments, and it's just a good

344
00:20:19,880 --> 00:20:23,680
place to be. I'm not a comment reader. Like when

345
00:20:23,720 --> 00:20:26,920
I watch a YouTube video or Facebook video or whatever,

346
00:20:27,279 --> 00:20:30,079
I never comment. I never comment one way or another.

347
00:20:30,240 --> 00:20:33,640
I'm just there to watch. You know, with this channel,

348
00:20:33,720 --> 00:20:36,799
there's only about five percent of the people that actually

349
00:20:36,960 --> 00:20:39,759
view a video that will leave a comment. But I

350
00:20:39,799 --> 00:20:42,599
have a feeling that the people who don't comment are

351
00:20:42,720 --> 00:20:45,079
just the same. They're just nice people who like to

352
00:20:45,160 --> 00:20:47,440
listen to a good story every once in a while.

353
00:20:47,839 --> 00:20:49,920
So I'll quit going on and on about that. But

354
00:20:50,000 --> 00:20:54,039
this was a great, lighthearted story about a ghost and

355
00:20:54,119 --> 00:20:58,279
a house in each Nashville, built in nineteen thirty eight

356
00:20:58,480 --> 00:21:02,000
and the owner parent at least, still lives there. And

357
00:21:02,160 --> 00:21:05,720
this guy's comment about trying to summon the ghosts to

358
00:21:05,799 --> 00:21:09,240
run off the new owner, that was hysterical. But thank

359
00:21:09,279 --> 00:21:12,920
you for that. I enjoyed this story. I really appreciate

360
00:21:12,960 --> 00:21:16,200
the man sending it to me. Thank you, hey, thank

361
00:21:16,240 --> 00:21:18,920
you all for listening to this podcast. I appreciate you.

362
00:21:19,039 --> 00:21:21,759
I want to say one thing. I don't talk in

363
00:21:21,799 --> 00:21:24,920
these videos anymore. I used to. In the first couple

364
00:21:24,920 --> 00:21:27,799
of three years I did this podcast, I talked to y'all,

365
00:21:27,839 --> 00:21:30,559
and I know some people like it and some people don't.

366
00:21:30,559 --> 00:21:33,400
But the truth is, I just really don't have much

367
00:21:33,480 --> 00:21:36,119
to say. I just like doing these stories. I like

368
00:21:36,240 --> 00:21:39,720
reading them, wrapping them up, editing, editing them, and getting

369
00:21:39,759 --> 00:21:42,519
them out to you all. But there is one thing

370
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:46,440
that has really got has made me angry for the

371
00:21:46,559 --> 00:21:52,119
last ever since I opened the account. This account I

372
00:21:52,200 --> 00:21:56,680
have with this spring company. It's where you buy T shirts.

373
00:21:56,799 --> 00:22:00,519
It's not I don't think it's under my YouTube videos anymore,

374
00:22:00,599 --> 00:22:04,960
because they are a horrible company. The quality of the

375
00:22:05,000 --> 00:22:09,680
T shirts is bad. They are overpriced, Their customer service

376
00:22:09,799 --> 00:22:13,920
is horrible. I even ordered two hoodies for my brother

377
00:22:14,039 --> 00:22:17,559
in law three months ago. I still haven't gotten them.

378
00:22:17,599 --> 00:22:22,480
Nobody's returning my call, nobody's returning my emails. I'm switching.

379
00:22:22,640 --> 00:22:25,119
You all have asked why I don't have T shirts

380
00:22:25,160 --> 00:22:29,319
for sale anymore. The reason is is because I tried

381
00:22:29,359 --> 00:22:32,200
to get them. I can't figure out a way to

382
00:22:32,240 --> 00:22:35,119
shut down the store. That's the truth. I have looked

383
00:22:35,119 --> 00:22:40,279
at every button on their website and I've discontinued every

384
00:22:40,319 --> 00:22:43,359
ad I have. I've done everything I can to keep

385
00:22:43,400 --> 00:22:48,480
it off the channel. So don't buy anything from Spring,

386
00:22:48,559 --> 00:22:53,160
at least for my merchandise, because more than likely you're

387
00:22:53,200 --> 00:22:57,000
gonna get ripped off. And I think the company is

388
00:22:57,039 --> 00:22:59,880
about half broke. Maybe a year and a half ago.

389
00:23:00,319 --> 00:23:02,920
You used to could click, you know, I'd make twenty

390
00:23:03,039 --> 00:23:07,240
thirty fifty sixty dollars a month off the commissions. If

391
00:23:07,240 --> 00:23:08,960
you buy a T shirt, I get a little piece

392
00:23:09,000 --> 00:23:11,880
of it. It got to where they were taking two

393
00:23:12,039 --> 00:23:14,599
to three months to pay me, and I could tell

394
00:23:14,680 --> 00:23:17,319
something's wrong. And then all of a sudden when I

395
00:23:17,359 --> 00:23:21,119
did start getting paid, and it still takes. I haven't

396
00:23:21,279 --> 00:23:25,359
gotten a payout in months, but the last few I got,

397
00:23:25,839 --> 00:23:28,759
they were sent to me by another company and it

398
00:23:28,839 --> 00:23:32,200
took still took two or three months to get paid.

399
00:23:32,519 --> 00:23:35,319
So anyway, I just wanted to say I'm sorry that

400
00:23:35,319 --> 00:23:37,759
that company did not live up to what I thought

401
00:23:37,759 --> 00:23:40,559
they would do. I'm switching to a new company, and

402
00:23:40,599 --> 00:23:42,880
when I get time, I'm gonna put out Steve Lilly

403
00:23:43,000 --> 00:23:46,319
T shirts, Dixie Crypti T shirts. They're gonna be great.

404
00:23:46,960 --> 00:23:49,160
I just haven't had time to design a few T

405
00:23:49,279 --> 00:23:51,359
shirts and get them up, so I wanted to let

406
00:23:51,400 --> 00:23:56,279
y'all know that don't buy anything from Spring through my channel.

407
00:23:56,440 --> 00:23:59,039
Just don't do it. You're gonna lose your money. It's

408
00:23:59,079 --> 00:24:03,559
over price. He's not good. They're these little thin T shirts.

409
00:24:03,920 --> 00:24:06,559
It's like I wear a two X and they send

410
00:24:06,599 --> 00:24:09,680
me it must send me a Chinese two X, because

411
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:12,559
you know a two X and China is probably about

412
00:24:12,599 --> 00:24:15,519
half my size. I don't know. I just don't like

413
00:24:15,559 --> 00:24:18,079
anything about the company, and I'm trying to switch over.

414
00:24:18,519 --> 00:24:20,440
So I want to let y'all know that appreciate you

415
00:24:20,599 --> 00:24:23,599
listening to my rent and we will see you guys

416
00:24:23,680 --> 00:24:30,960
on the next podcast. Thank you
