1 00:00:09,720 --> 00:00:13,679 Speaker 1: All right, here's a Bigfoot story by Love's Bigfoot Stories. 2 00:00:13,960 --> 00:00:17,480 This is a really good one. My parents were antique 3 00:00:17,519 --> 00:00:20,800 dealers when I was growing up. My mother was raised 4 00:00:20,839 --> 00:00:23,679 in an outdoorsy family and my father was raised on 5 00:00:23,719 --> 00:00:27,480 the streets of Los Angeles. My father had a rough 6 00:00:27,559 --> 00:00:31,000 upbringing and wasn't raised to be timid or nice. He 7 00:00:31,120 --> 00:00:34,399 was a golden gloves boxer. If he was ever afraid 8 00:00:34,439 --> 00:00:38,520 of anything, he didn't let it show. It was Saturday, 9 00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:42,039 sometime in the summer of nineteen seventy three, around four 10 00:00:42,079 --> 00:00:44,399 in the morning, and Dad and I had packed the 11 00:00:44,479 --> 00:00:48,640 Dodge Tradesman one hundred with banana boxes of collectibles and 12 00:00:48,679 --> 00:00:52,200 antiques to take the Medford Organ to a flea market. 13 00:00:53,079 --> 00:00:56,240 We did flea markets quite frequently back then, as there 14 00:00:56,320 --> 00:01:00,280 was no such thing as the Internet, eBay or Etsy. 15 00:01:00,560 --> 00:01:03,200 The dark early morning was clear and cool, and the 16 00:01:03,280 --> 00:01:07,079 interstate was deserted. My dad drove and it was my 17 00:01:07,200 --> 00:01:10,359 job to pour the burning hot liquid while jostling around 18 00:01:10,439 --> 00:01:13,799 in the van at fifty five miles an hour. And 19 00:01:13,840 --> 00:01:16,680 there we were drinking our black coffee straight up and 20 00:01:16,840 --> 00:01:20,319 enjoying the silence, when in the distance we spotted a 21 00:01:20,439 --> 00:01:23,640 large figure standing on the northbound side of the road. 22 00:01:24,120 --> 00:01:27,280 What is that, Dad, I asked, pointing ahead at the 23 00:01:27,319 --> 00:01:32,200 dimly illuminated, dark, hulking figure ahead of us. But Dad 24 00:01:32,280 --> 00:01:34,760 leaned forward and against the steering wheel and he hit 25 00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:38,719 the foot pedal to turn the headlights on to bright. Yes, kids, 26 00:01:38,799 --> 00:01:41,400 that used to be a thing. Bright's on the floor, 27 00:01:41,560 --> 00:01:46,079 not the signal stem. What we saw on that dark, 28 00:01:46,200 --> 00:01:50,640 lonely stretch of mountainous interstate changed me and my father forever. 29 00:01:51,959 --> 00:01:56,040 We watched in amazement and in stupid awe is this 30 00:01:56,239 --> 00:01:58,959 nine foot tall creature with a black head to toe 31 00:01:59,120 --> 00:02:02,599 fur still over the damn guard rail on two legs, 32 00:02:02,680 --> 00:02:05,560 right in front of us, And it turned its massive 33 00:02:05,640 --> 00:02:09,680 torso and it looked at us. Let me say that, 34 00:02:09,840 --> 00:02:12,759 until you actually see one, it is difficult to explain 35 00:02:12,800 --> 00:02:15,800 the feeling that it gives you. It's like everything you 36 00:02:15,919 --> 00:02:19,800 ever thought you knew was a lie. All told, the 37 00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:23,319 event was only about ten or fifteen seconds of life 38 00:02:23,439 --> 00:02:27,960 changing revelation, But that was long enough. Dad, What was that? 39 00:02:28,439 --> 00:02:32,439 I asked? He hesitated, and he chose his words carefully. 40 00:02:33,240 --> 00:02:35,199 I don't know, but I can tell you it wasn't 41 00:02:35,240 --> 00:02:37,919 a bear. Well turn around and go back, Let's get 42 00:02:37,919 --> 00:02:41,639 another look at that thing. I said, no way, Dad 43 00:02:41,680 --> 00:02:45,240 blurted out. For the first time in my life, I 44 00:02:45,360 --> 00:02:49,280 heard fear in his voice. Well, we kept on driving 45 00:02:49,319 --> 00:02:52,560 to our destination and talking about what we saw, and 46 00:02:52,599 --> 00:02:55,360 eventually coming to the conclusion that it must have been 47 00:02:55,400 --> 00:02:59,439 a bigfoot. It was that or the biggest man we'd 48 00:02:59,479 --> 00:03:02,400 ever seen, and a hairy sue early in the morning, 49 00:03:02,599 --> 00:03:06,759 alongside a deserted mountain highway with legs long enough that 50 00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:11,599 he could easily step over a guardrail. When you see one, 51 00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:14,680 your gut just knows. All of you folks out there 52 00:03:14,719 --> 00:03:17,680 who have seen one know exactly what I'm talking about. 53 00:03:18,479 --> 00:03:23,240 You just know it doesn't take much evidence to change 54 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,520 your perspective of the world. What my dad and I 55 00:03:26,599 --> 00:03:30,240 saw that early morning in nineteen seventy three turned us 56 00:03:30,280 --> 00:03:34,199 into knowers. We continue to fish and camp until my 57 00:03:34,240 --> 00:03:37,960 father passed away in two thousand and one. We weren't 58 00:03:38,000 --> 00:03:40,360 afraid to go out in the woods, but we often 59 00:03:40,479 --> 00:03:44,560 talked about that day that we saw Bigfoot, and even today, 60 00:03:44,599 --> 00:03:47,199 I still get goosebumps when I remember the way that 61 00:03:47,240 --> 00:03:50,560 thing looked at us. Thank you for listening to my story. 62 00:03:50,840 --> 00:03:54,680 I enjoyed writing it. Oh, that's the best line of 63 00:03:54,719 --> 00:03:58,120 the whole story. She enjoyed writing it. I think that 64 00:03:58,479 --> 00:04:02,639 is awesome. That's a great it's a and that's exactly 65 00:04:02,680 --> 00:04:05,479 how I've said it a thousand times. This is exactly 66 00:04:05,599 --> 00:04:08,919 how I want to see a bigfoot, even if it 67 00:04:09,080 --> 00:04:11,280 just stops me, if I have to stop in the 68 00:04:11,319 --> 00:04:13,560 middle of the road to look at it, and then 69 00:04:13,759 --> 00:04:16,680 I will be a knower. I won't be a skeptic 70 00:04:16,879 --> 00:04:20,079 or a believer, or I'll be a knower as so 71 00:04:20,199 --> 00:04:24,480 many people say, which you know, that's that's one of 72 00:04:24,519 --> 00:04:28,240 the big platitudes that people use in the bigfoot community. 73 00:04:28,519 --> 00:04:31,040 Oh I ain't no believer. I'm a knower. In other words, 74 00:04:31,279 --> 00:04:35,000 i've seen one. I sink it. I've seen one. I 75 00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:37,759 get it. I totally get it. It's a if you 76 00:04:37,800 --> 00:04:40,160 see something like that standing in the road in front 77 00:04:40,199 --> 00:04:42,879 of you. She remembers the way it turned, the way 78 00:04:42,920 --> 00:04:46,399 it looked at her and her dad. It's probably like 79 00:04:46,439 --> 00:04:49,360 a video real that just replays in her head over 80 00:04:49,480 --> 00:04:52,720 and over and over. I thought this was a great story. 81 00:04:52,839 --> 00:04:57,800 Thank you to the writer. It was wonderful. Thanks, hey, hey, 82 00:04:57,920 --> 00:05:00,560 thanks for clicking on the video. My name's Cam butner. 83 00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:04,639 This is the Dixie Cryptid or what if It's True? Podcast? 84 00:05:05,519 --> 00:05:08,839 If you like good stories, just good stories that just 85 00:05:09,279 --> 00:05:12,160 take you away to another world. You found your people, 86 00:05:12,279 --> 00:05:15,319 you found your place, and I'm glad you're here. If 87 00:05:15,319 --> 00:05:18,600 you haven't listened to my latest, not this one, but 88 00:05:18,639 --> 00:05:22,600 the one before this, I'll end screen it on this. 89 00:05:22,839 --> 00:05:26,240 It's a podcast I put up called The hat Man 90 00:05:26,879 --> 00:05:30,360 the Author. It's a fictional story written by a woman 91 00:05:30,480 --> 00:05:34,800 named Rebecca Lee Wesson, and she is a really good writer, 92 00:05:35,519 --> 00:05:39,079 and I think the production of that podcast is pretty good. 93 00:05:39,680 --> 00:05:41,920 I think you'd enjoy it. I'm going to end screen it. 94 00:05:41,959 --> 00:05:43,360 I want you to go back and listen to it 95 00:05:43,360 --> 00:05:46,399 if you're interested in that kind of thing. And that's 96 00:05:46,439 --> 00:05:48,600 all I wanted to say. We've got three more stories 97 00:05:48,680 --> 00:05:50,839 left to go in this podcast, and I hope you 98 00:05:50,879 --> 00:05:59,360 guys enjoy them all. Right here we go. After listening 99 00:05:59,439 --> 00:06:04,360 to your where you mentioned strange encounters in the United Kingdom, 100 00:06:04,519 --> 00:06:07,319 I thought I would share the story with you. It 101 00:06:07,399 --> 00:06:10,399 concerns my daughter, who was fifteen at the time, and 102 00:06:10,439 --> 00:06:15,240 her stepfather, who was a police officer. This encounter took 103 00:06:15,279 --> 00:06:19,800 place in rural Northern Ireland in the autumn of twenty 104 00:06:19,920 --> 00:06:24,279 and seventeen, my daughter and her stepfather were returning home 105 00:06:24,319 --> 00:06:27,360 with a takeaway pizza when about a mile from home, 106 00:06:27,399 --> 00:06:30,920 they saw a strange creature on the road ahead of them. 107 00:06:31,439 --> 00:06:33,639 They said it was the size of a sheep, but 108 00:06:33,720 --> 00:06:37,759 with smooth black skin. It crossed the road and moved 109 00:06:37,759 --> 00:06:40,480 into the field on the other side, and then vanished 110 00:06:40,639 --> 00:06:44,920 into the darkness. Neither of them recognized the creature, and 111 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:47,920 since we all lived in the country, they were familiar 112 00:06:47,959 --> 00:06:52,000 with the local animals. My daughter was upset by the 113 00:06:52,160 --> 00:06:56,759 experienced and told her grandfather about it. Her grandfather was 114 00:06:56,800 --> 00:07:02,600 a keen spotter of wildlife and consulted books to reassure her. 115 00:07:02,720 --> 00:07:05,759 He told her it was an otter, even though the 116 00:07:05,759 --> 00:07:08,720 nearest river was four miles away and otters did not 117 00:07:08,920 --> 00:07:13,240 grow in the size of a sheep, Perhaps fearing ridicule. 118 00:07:13,360 --> 00:07:17,480 Her stepfather admitted seeing it, but would give no more details. 119 00:07:18,480 --> 00:07:21,519 I believe my daughter if only because of how upset 120 00:07:21,519 --> 00:07:25,439 and worried she was after the experience. I did some 121 00:07:25,480 --> 00:07:29,720 research myself and discovered the old Gaelic legend of the 122 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:36,120 dough Bart the king otter. I'm certain I mispronounced that, 123 00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:42,120 but it's dB h r hyphen Cchu, the dough bart 124 00:07:42,600 --> 00:07:46,000 the king Otter. It's described as a half otter and 125 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:49,680 half dog. There's a legend dating back to the seventeenth 126 00:07:49,680 --> 00:07:53,199 century where a woman was supposedly killed by one in 127 00:07:53,639 --> 00:07:58,920 County lytram at Glendale low Or so is recorded on 128 00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:04,279 a headstone Cornwall Cemetery. Strange creatures may indeed be out there, 129 00:08:04,319 --> 00:08:07,879 and perhaps some legends are true. Yeah, I have trouble 130 00:08:08,000 --> 00:08:12,439 pronouncing words. I'm sorry. I'm sorry, y'all, especially to the 131 00:08:12,439 --> 00:08:16,720 people in Europe who listen to this. I'm just I'm 132 00:08:16,759 --> 00:08:20,160 from Mississippi in the United States, and it's just hard 133 00:08:20,199 --> 00:08:24,240 to say stuff. We don't even understand each other down here, 134 00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:27,199 So don't take offense to me not being able to 135 00:08:27,319 --> 00:08:30,480 say some of these words correctly. I'm trying to I'm 136 00:08:30,480 --> 00:08:33,960 looking at that county again, Lytrim l E, I t 137 00:08:34,120 --> 00:08:39,679 R I M. I think it's lytram leatrim Leatrim maybe 138 00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:44,759 and it's in Glendale Lowe. But it's recorded on her headstone. 139 00:08:45,279 --> 00:08:49,399 This woman was It was recorded on her headstone in 140 00:08:49,480 --> 00:08:53,600 the seventeenth century where a woman was killed by a 141 00:08:53,720 --> 00:08:58,279 doe Bartu, the king Otter in Ireland. Now that is 142 00:08:58,600 --> 00:09:02,159 interesting as all it out. It's a very short story, 143 00:09:02,200 --> 00:09:05,759 but it's really cool. I'm looking up here where our 144 00:09:05,919 --> 00:09:12,480 editors gave it the category King Otter an Irish legend. Oh, 145 00:09:12,720 --> 00:09:17,639 if anyone in Ireland listens to this podcast, if you 146 00:09:17,679 --> 00:09:22,600 guys have any stories from your island, I want them. 147 00:09:22,759 --> 00:09:26,519 I really want those. I know the banshee is an 148 00:09:26,559 --> 00:09:32,159 Irish legend or mythical creature. I'm trying to think leprechauns. 149 00:09:32,960 --> 00:09:35,200 I'm trying to think of other things that I've heard 150 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:39,480 of from Ireland. Anyway, it's really interesting stuff. Thank you 151 00:09:39,720 --> 00:09:45,919 to the writer for sending this. This was really good. Okay. 152 00:09:45,919 --> 00:09:49,120 I did a story maybe two years ago. I think 153 00:09:49,159 --> 00:09:52,360 it was about that long from a listener. It was 154 00:09:52,399 --> 00:09:55,919 about a hogman. So I'm kind of setting the stage 155 00:09:55,960 --> 00:09:57,840 for what's going on here. So I'm just going to 156 00:09:57,919 --> 00:10:00,960 start reading his email and you'll and then you'll catch up. 157 00:10:01,559 --> 00:10:04,960 He writes, I submitted a story to you once about 158 00:10:04,960 --> 00:10:09,120 my encounter with a hogman. When my uncle Jerome heard 159 00:10:09,120 --> 00:10:11,879 about it, he called me with his own story to tell. 160 00:10:12,519 --> 00:10:17,960 It seems he encountered the same creature. Here is his story. 161 00:10:19,519 --> 00:10:22,279 A long time ago, my father was making some upgrades 162 00:10:22,320 --> 00:10:26,159 to their house in the backwoods of Leesburg, Florida. It 163 00:10:26,240 --> 00:10:29,000 was getting late in the summer, and he had promised 164 00:10:29,039 --> 00:10:31,480 my mother that he'd be near the edge of the 165 00:10:31,519 --> 00:10:34,840 woods so she and the children wouldn't have to venture 166 00:10:34,879 --> 00:10:37,159 into the trees every time someone had to go to 167 00:10:37,200 --> 00:10:40,720 the body, especially at night. Must have been close to 168 00:10:40,759 --> 00:10:43,960 the outhouse. Anyway, you need to get working on all 169 00:10:44,000 --> 00:10:47,600 that outhouse while the ground is soft and warm, she'd 170 00:10:47,639 --> 00:10:51,360 remind him in her sweet little church lady voice, maybe 171 00:10:51,399 --> 00:10:54,279 a little too often for my father's taste. Okay, he 172 00:10:54,519 --> 00:10:57,960 was working on the outhouse. I know I've screwed this 173 00:10:58,080 --> 00:11:00,320 story up. I'm sorry. I'm just going to keep her eating. 174 00:11:01,039 --> 00:11:04,320 Maybe I'll get it right from here on out. It 175 00:11:04,360 --> 00:11:06,960 made him pick up the paste, though, and soon he 176 00:11:07,000 --> 00:11:10,360 had dug a deep black hole in the ground. He 177 00:11:10,679 --> 00:11:13,440 mitered a wooden box that covered the hole and provided 178 00:11:13,519 --> 00:11:15,919 us with a place to sit down when we did 179 00:11:15,960 --> 00:11:20,679 our toos and don'ts, as we call them. When the 180 00:11:20,799 --> 00:11:23,879 exterior walls were put up, my father was finished, and 181 00:11:23,919 --> 00:11:27,159 we all gathered around and looked at the glory of 182 00:11:27,240 --> 00:11:30,759 our very first pre toilet and then I spoke up 183 00:11:31,639 --> 00:11:34,840 that sure is an awful big hole for my little butt, 184 00:11:35,120 --> 00:11:38,919 I told my father. He chuckled and said he'd buy 185 00:11:38,919 --> 00:11:41,360 a toilet seat in the morning for the little butts, 186 00:11:41,440 --> 00:11:45,279 but for now it was ready to go. After supper, 187 00:11:45,559 --> 00:11:48,600 we all peeled away from the dinner table. I don't 188 00:11:48,600 --> 00:11:51,720 know what I was busy doing, but I was distracted, 189 00:11:52,080 --> 00:11:56,000 and I missed our usual mother supervised evening potty break. 190 00:11:56,799 --> 00:11:59,000 She would walk us all out, and she would wait 191 00:11:59,039 --> 00:12:01,480 patiently to make sure that we were safe as we 192 00:12:01,519 --> 00:12:04,720 did our business, and when we were done, we'd all 193 00:12:04,840 --> 00:12:07,639 race back to the house as the sky turned purple. 194 00:12:08,440 --> 00:12:11,720 Oh well, I told myself, knowing I was big enough 195 00:12:11,759 --> 00:12:16,399 to hold it until the morning. Bedtime at our house 196 00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:20,200 meant lights out. Since there were no TVs or lamps, 197 00:12:20,240 --> 00:12:23,799 that meant all lanterns were snuffed out. It got so 198 00:12:23,960 --> 00:12:26,240 dark in the house that the only light that we 199 00:12:26,399 --> 00:12:29,159 got was the whites of our eyes when we opened them. 200 00:12:30,320 --> 00:12:32,919 Sometime in the night. My eyes opened to a sharp 201 00:12:33,000 --> 00:12:36,559 twinge in my gut, and my stomach rumbled, sending me 202 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,200 a message that it was time to pay for all 203 00:12:39,240 --> 00:12:43,240 that extra gravy. I sopped up with the biscuits. Another 204 00:12:43,279 --> 00:12:46,159 gurgle barked and gave me a good two minute warning, 205 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:53,639 forcing me to sit up in bed. I'm sorry, y'all. 206 00:12:53,840 --> 00:12:56,919 Thank goodness, the stars were out that night. They shone 207 00:12:57,120 --> 00:13:01,000 in through the kitchen window and helped light way as 208 00:13:01,039 --> 00:13:03,759 I kept my hands out to bump into the doorknob. 209 00:13:04,519 --> 00:13:06,879 I quietly went onto the porch so as not to 210 00:13:06,919 --> 00:13:09,639 wake anybody up, and then I grabbed the rope my 211 00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:12,720 father had tethered from the porch to the outhouse to 212 00:13:12,799 --> 00:13:15,559 help us find our way when it rained or got 213 00:13:15,559 --> 00:13:19,120 too foggy to see. So I scooted my hand across 214 00:13:19,159 --> 00:13:22,759 that rope at full speed until I nearly smashed into 215 00:13:22,799 --> 00:13:28,399 the new outhouse. I hurried myself inside bottom first, and 216 00:13:28,480 --> 00:13:31,399 I sat on the big hole that was far too 217 00:13:31,480 --> 00:13:33,600 big for me, and I did my best to keep 218 00:13:33,639 --> 00:13:37,039 from falling into the abyss below. There wasn't yet a 219 00:13:37,120 --> 00:13:40,519 roof on the outhouse, so starlight shone in around me 220 00:13:40,600 --> 00:13:43,600 and provided me with a comfortable little environment to do 221 00:13:43,759 --> 00:13:47,360 my business. And just as I was getting settled, I 222 00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:51,919 hurt something. At first, it was just a small twig snap. 223 00:13:52,399 --> 00:13:55,919 I didn't pay any mine until I heard another twig snap, 224 00:13:56,360 --> 00:13:59,399 this time much closer to the outhouse, and I sat 225 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:02,080 there trying be as quiet as possible. But then a 226 00:14:02,159 --> 00:14:05,279 terrible smell began to grow, and it wasn't for me. 227 00:14:06,279 --> 00:14:10,720 It was coming from outside. I heard another tweak snap, 228 00:14:11,240 --> 00:14:15,000 and then the distinct sound of heavy feet shuffling forward. 229 00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:18,919 They were snapping and crushing the branches and leaves underfoot. 230 00:14:19,919 --> 00:14:22,879 I did my best to stay frozen. I wanted to 231 00:14:22,879 --> 00:14:25,440 cover my mouth, but I needed both hands to keep 232 00:14:25,480 --> 00:14:29,080 me from falling into the toilet box. I tried to 233 00:14:29,159 --> 00:14:32,480 quiet my breathing, but the quieter my breathing, the louder 234 00:14:32,559 --> 00:14:36,200 my heartbeat climbed into my ears, and I sat there 235 00:14:36,279 --> 00:14:41,039 in my awkward predicament. Silence slowly crept over me like 236 00:14:41,080 --> 00:14:45,039 a thick blanket, and my heartbeat faded into the background. 237 00:14:46,440 --> 00:14:50,320 This was no ordinary silence. I could just about feel 238 00:14:50,360 --> 00:14:55,159 it being pulled over me. First the grasshoppers and crickets 239 00:14:55,200 --> 00:14:58,720 clammed up, and then the hootiles and nightbirds shut down, 240 00:14:58,799 --> 00:15:02,879 and finally the odes clammed up. I could tell there 241 00:15:02,919 --> 00:15:05,960 was someone around me. It was the same feeling I 242 00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:08,399 got right before one of my siblings was about to 243 00:15:08,440 --> 00:15:12,159 cover my eyes and yell boot. I hoped it was 244 00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:15,159 just one of my sisters trying to be funny, following 245 00:15:15,240 --> 00:15:18,360 me out the back door and unbeknownst to me, setting 246 00:15:18,440 --> 00:15:21,440 me up for a big scare. But I figured i'd 247 00:15:21,480 --> 00:15:24,759 let her know the jig was up. Who's out there, 248 00:15:24,960 --> 00:15:27,960 I said, softly, but not too loud for fear of 249 00:15:28,000 --> 00:15:32,840 attracting a Cody or some other night critter. I assumed 250 00:15:32,840 --> 00:15:35,600 i'd hear one of my sisters began to giggle and 251 00:15:35,679 --> 00:15:37,720 to let the air out of his creepy bubble that 252 00:15:37,799 --> 00:15:42,159 had inflated around our outhouse. But there was no giggle, 253 00:15:42,879 --> 00:15:48,080 just complete blanketing silence. I started to panic, and I 254 00:15:48,120 --> 00:15:50,639 finished up and started to pull my pants up, and 255 00:15:50,679 --> 00:15:53,200 as I leaned toward the door, thinking it might still 256 00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:55,759 have been one of my sisters. But I couldn't have 257 00:15:55,799 --> 00:15:58,840 been more wrong. And as I picked out the door, 258 00:15:58,960 --> 00:16:03,360 I heard a short, uteral grunt from above me. All 259 00:16:03,399 --> 00:16:07,039 the starlight shining into the outhouse was smothered by a shadow, 260 00:16:07,240 --> 00:16:11,559 showering the little space and darkness. My eyes widened like 261 00:16:11,600 --> 00:16:15,159 two full moons, and I looked up to my horror, 262 00:16:15,360 --> 00:16:19,720 there was an enormous figure looking down at me. The 263 00:16:19,759 --> 00:16:22,559 planks my father used for the walls of the outhouse 264 00:16:22,600 --> 00:16:25,480 were sticking nearly eight feet off the ground, yet this 265 00:16:25,600 --> 00:16:28,960 thing was staring down at me over the edge. It 266 00:16:29,039 --> 00:16:31,360 took me a few seconds to realize what I was 267 00:16:31,399 --> 00:16:35,080 looking at, and when I saw it clearly, I was horrified. 268 00:16:35,919 --> 00:16:40,159 This creature had the head of a hog. And then 269 00:16:40,200 --> 00:16:43,399 it spoke to me, not with words, but right into 270 00:16:43,440 --> 00:16:46,320 my head in a booming, deep voice. What are you 271 00:16:46,440 --> 00:16:51,240 doing out here, brave little fella? The voice asked. My 272 00:16:51,320 --> 00:16:53,559 eyes must have been about to pop out of my head, 273 00:16:53,960 --> 00:16:57,320 and I felt my eyelids stretch as I stared motionless 274 00:16:57,399 --> 00:17:00,799 at this beast towering over me. And if I hadn't 275 00:17:00,879 --> 00:17:04,079 just done my business, I would have surely sold myself. 276 00:17:05,160 --> 00:17:07,640 The hog had retreated back over the wall, but it 277 00:17:07,680 --> 00:17:10,839 wasn't gone, and I felt its pounding feet making their 278 00:17:10,880 --> 00:17:14,359 way toward the door of the outhouse, each step telling 279 00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:18,640 me that this thing was huge. The door started to 280 00:17:18,680 --> 00:17:22,319 creep open, and what looked at me from outside was 281 00:17:22,319 --> 00:17:25,279 a be so tall and wide that there was no 282 00:17:25,440 --> 00:17:29,119 chance I would be able to dash around her under it. 283 00:17:29,119 --> 00:17:32,240 It clogged up the entire opening, and in the starlight 284 00:17:32,359 --> 00:17:36,839 I could see its whole hideous figure. Its giant body 285 00:17:37,079 --> 00:17:41,400 matched its giant head. It looked like a pig standing upright, 286 00:17:41,559 --> 00:17:44,960 with swollen limbs and torso, and at the end of 287 00:17:45,000 --> 00:17:48,640 its swollen ankles were human light feet with no shoes on. 288 00:17:49,559 --> 00:17:52,200 There was no other way to describe it. It was 289 00:17:52,240 --> 00:17:57,640 a hog man. I remember thinking to myself, I'm a 290 00:17:57,680 --> 00:18:00,200 dead duck. I'm going to be carried out in the 291 00:18:00,240 --> 00:18:03,559 woods like all the bad little boys are. I thought 292 00:18:03,559 --> 00:18:05,960 of my poor mother searching and calling for me in 293 00:18:06,000 --> 00:18:08,559 the woods, knowing she would never be able to find me, 294 00:18:09,440 --> 00:18:12,960 and tears burned their way into the corners of my eyes. 295 00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:17,759 And the hogman did something remarkable. It opened the door 296 00:18:17,799 --> 00:18:20,720 all the way and stepped to the side. I'm not 297 00:18:20,839 --> 00:18:23,720 here to carry you off, little boy, he said, right 298 00:18:23,759 --> 00:18:26,599 into my head. But there are some things in these 299 00:18:26,640 --> 00:18:31,759 woods that will. I stared at him, motionless, forgetting how 300 00:18:31,799 --> 00:18:35,160 to use my voice and my legs. Now get The 301 00:18:35,200 --> 00:18:39,799 hogman snarled. He stopped his swollen foot on the ground, 302 00:18:39,799 --> 00:18:42,400 and I felt the earth shake around me, and I 303 00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:45,240 tore out of that outhouse, pulling my breeches up with 304 00:18:45,319 --> 00:18:48,720 both hands. As I went, stepping and hopping my way 305 00:18:48,839 --> 00:18:51,519 to the safety of the house. As soon as I 306 00:18:51,599 --> 00:18:54,200 hit the porch, all the sounds of the night flicked 307 00:18:54,240 --> 00:18:56,720 back on at once, and I hurried in, and I 308 00:18:56,799 --> 00:19:00,440 closed the door behind me, thinking my hasty entrance would 309 00:19:00,440 --> 00:19:03,839 wake everybody up, and thinking I'd have to explain why 310 00:19:03,839 --> 00:19:08,000 I was breathing so hard. I peeked out the back window, 311 00:19:08,240 --> 00:19:11,039 expecting the Hogman to be looking right back at me. 312 00:19:11,640 --> 00:19:14,839 But he was gone. I don't know where he could 313 00:19:14,880 --> 00:19:18,359 have gone so quickly with his enormous body, but he 314 00:19:18,519 --> 00:19:23,759 was just gone. Forever, I hoped. I have never mentioned 315 00:19:23,799 --> 00:19:26,720 a peep of this to anyone. I didn't want to 316 00:19:26,759 --> 00:19:30,440 look into anyone's doubting eyes. And here I am, all 317 00:19:30,519 --> 00:19:34,960 these years later, a grandfather. Now I watched my grandson 318 00:19:35,079 --> 00:19:37,759 play wild and free in the woods behind my house 319 00:19:37,839 --> 00:19:42,200 where a lifetime ago, I'm at the Hogman. My grandson 320 00:19:42,319 --> 00:19:45,000 is about the same age that I was when it happened, 321 00:19:45,680 --> 00:19:48,640 And now the onus is upon me to ruin the 322 00:19:48,759 --> 00:19:53,519 rose colored outlook. This kid still has about life because 323 00:19:53,559 --> 00:19:57,079 someone has to teach him that the Hogman is out there. 324 00:19:58,240 --> 00:20:02,119 Oh my gosh, what an o awesome story. I remember 325 00:20:02,240 --> 00:20:05,640 this Hogman story. I've actually put pieces of it in 326 00:20:05,880 --> 00:20:08,480 the in some of the little shorts that I do. 327 00:20:08,920 --> 00:20:13,279 And I've gotten my AI account my AI website to 328 00:20:13,400 --> 00:20:16,200 do some strange pictures. I might try to do that 329 00:20:16,279 --> 00:20:20,519 for the thumbnail on this story, because I don't know. 330 00:20:20,559 --> 00:20:23,440 It seems like the first Hogman's story. Oh I got 331 00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:26,319 to scratch my back. I got a itch. Oh it's 332 00:20:26,359 --> 00:20:30,480 itching me. Y'all ever get a itch? Wonder if you 333 00:20:30,559 --> 00:20:33,279 got a tick buried in your back? That's what happens 334 00:20:33,319 --> 00:20:37,079 to me, a big, old, green, full tick. I'll pull 335 00:20:37,119 --> 00:20:39,839 my shirt up and let my wife look at my gross, 336 00:20:39,880 --> 00:20:41,640 hairy back, and I'll say, do I have a tick 337 00:20:41,680 --> 00:20:44,440 on my back? Yes, She'll go get a pair of 338 00:20:44,480 --> 00:20:46,640 tweezers and pull them off. I don't know why I 339 00:20:46,680 --> 00:20:49,200 thought of that. I have no idea why I'm telling 340 00:20:49,240 --> 00:20:52,640 you that. But if anybody's ever had a big, green, 341 00:20:52,799 --> 00:20:55,079 swellen tick on them that's been on them two or 342 00:20:55,079 --> 00:20:58,119 three days, tell me about it in the comment section. 343 00:20:58,200 --> 00:21:00,720 That happens to me about twice a year. And I 344 00:21:00,799 --> 00:21:04,559 don't have any diseases lime disease or Rocky Mountain fever 345 00:21:04,680 --> 00:21:07,440 or anything. I guess I'm lucky. But anyway, back to 346 00:21:07,480 --> 00:21:12,200 the story. It seems like the hogman was mean in 347 00:21:12,279 --> 00:21:14,359 the other story, like it was trying to get to 348 00:21:14,440 --> 00:21:17,240 this guy he was in a deer stand, and I 349 00:21:17,279 --> 00:21:20,519 think it pulled the deer stand down. I don't know, 350 00:21:20,640 --> 00:21:22,759 I have to look it up. But this was a 351 00:21:22,759 --> 00:21:26,559 good story. It was really well written. And man, I 352 00:21:26,599 --> 00:21:28,400 was sitting on the edge of my seat the whole 353 00:21:28,400 --> 00:21:31,119 time I was reading this. But I appreciate the man 354 00:21:31,200 --> 00:21:34,519 sending it the second story I've done for him. I 355 00:21:34,519 --> 00:21:37,519 think I've had this about a year. It was so 356 00:21:37,599 --> 00:21:39,680 good I wanted to get it up, So thanks to 357 00:21:39,720 --> 00:21:47,640 the writer. This is a ghost story, really good, really 358 00:21:47,680 --> 00:21:51,640 a good ghost story, So hang on. Some people call 359 00:21:51,759 --> 00:21:56,359 me a ghost doctor. Others call people like me intermediaries 360 00:21:56,599 --> 00:22:00,880 or middlemen. Some have called me insane, and I can't 361 00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:04,240 argue with that. I suppose, after all, you'd have to 362 00:22:04,279 --> 00:22:06,960 be a little crazy to want to delve into my 363 00:22:07,079 --> 00:22:11,240 line of work. I helped ghosts find their way home 364 00:22:11,359 --> 00:22:14,279 with the help of folks on the other side. It's 365 00:22:14,319 --> 00:22:18,039 a rewarding profession, though, and I admit it can be 366 00:22:18,160 --> 00:22:24,000 downright terrifying at times. Two decades ago, I was in Florence, Italy, 367 00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:34,519 visiting what used to be an herbal apoth apothecary apothecary 368 00:22:34,559 --> 00:22:40,240 Apo t h e c a r y apothecary run 369 00:22:40,279 --> 00:22:44,440 by monks who acted as early versions of physicians, and 370 00:22:44,519 --> 00:22:49,079 in the dim ornately wood panel waiting area were two ghosts. 371 00:22:50,119 --> 00:22:53,799 Both wore what in modern times we would consider old 372 00:22:53,799 --> 00:22:57,680 style clothing, yet neither was aware of the other. They 373 00:22:57,680 --> 00:23:00,880 both passed away in the waiting area, a hundreds of 374 00:23:00,960 --> 00:23:04,920 years before and many years between each other. Now I 375 00:23:04,920 --> 00:23:07,519 should have known better, but I couldn't resist, and I 376 00:23:07,599 --> 00:23:11,200 said to them, the doctor will see you now. Well, 377 00:23:11,200 --> 00:23:13,480 this alone is proof of how bad my sense of 378 00:23:13,559 --> 00:23:18,759 humor is. Then I helped them cross over. The most 379 00:23:18,839 --> 00:23:21,759 number of ghosts I have encountered at one time was 380 00:23:21,799 --> 00:23:25,200 in a large hospital. Perhaps sixty five or so of 381 00:23:25,240 --> 00:23:28,960 them were clustered near the drive up entrance, waiting for 382 00:23:29,039 --> 00:23:32,680 their rides back home. None of them knew they had died, 383 00:23:32,759 --> 00:23:35,920 and each waiting for their family, for their loved ones 384 00:23:36,000 --> 00:23:39,400 and the people dear to them in their life. If 385 00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:41,720 I had helped but one of them cross over, the 386 00:23:41,799 --> 00:23:44,599 rest would have seen the light it produced and swarmed 387 00:23:44,680 --> 00:23:47,559 to me. So instead I called in help from the 388 00:23:47,599 --> 00:23:52,279 other side, which seemed to help get them crossed over. Mentally, 389 00:23:52,440 --> 00:23:54,799 I scanned the rest of the building for more and 390 00:23:54,839 --> 00:23:57,839 I found perhaps ten or twenty walking down the hallways 391 00:23:58,359 --> 00:24:01,359 or just stalled in an odd corner here or there, 392 00:24:01,559 --> 00:24:05,119 holding their rack with an IV drip on it. We 393 00:24:05,279 --> 00:24:08,119 helped them crossover one at a time, and we called 394 00:24:08,160 --> 00:24:12,200 it a day. Two months ago, a train running through 395 00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:16,559 my small town hit and kill someone. That someone must 396 00:24:16,559 --> 00:24:19,319 have known what they were doing, because it is hard 397 00:24:19,359 --> 00:24:22,680 to get to the tracks and very obvious when a 398 00:24:22,759 --> 00:24:27,079 train is coming. I don't like dealing with suicide ghosts, 399 00:24:27,079 --> 00:24:30,680 but I find satisfaction in doing so. They are in 400 00:24:30,759 --> 00:24:33,759 a place that looks and feels like a hurricane at night. 401 00:24:34,240 --> 00:24:38,000 It's pure chaos and confusion and a reflection of what 402 00:24:38,160 --> 00:24:41,000 drove them to the end of their life. It is 403 00:24:41,039 --> 00:24:44,279 a good advertisement to seek help rather than assume that 404 00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:48,960 ending one's life will end at all. In this instance, 405 00:24:49,160 --> 00:24:52,160 I reached out in meditation to see if there was 406 00:24:52,200 --> 00:24:54,960 a ghost remaining from the train fatality that we could 407 00:24:55,039 --> 00:24:58,599 support and their crossing over, and I could not find one, 408 00:24:59,319 --> 00:25:02,279 but I did myself. Caught in a main road about 409 00:25:02,319 --> 00:25:05,960 a block over, it was dark. There were no traffic 410 00:25:06,039 --> 00:25:09,160 lights flashing in the distance, and no street lights filled 411 00:25:09,200 --> 00:25:13,039 the deep woods and the trees were more dense. I 412 00:25:13,119 --> 00:25:15,480 realized then that I was seeing a view from the 413 00:25:15,519 --> 00:25:20,720 perspective of the ghost. Next to me was the town cemetery, 414 00:25:20,839 --> 00:25:25,960 which your audience may find interesting, is usually absent of spirits. 415 00:25:26,960 --> 00:25:29,920 On my other side, in the darkness was a quiet 416 00:25:29,960 --> 00:25:35,680 and unanimated ghost. I knew what god drenching emotions awaited 417 00:25:35,720 --> 00:25:39,640 me if I channeled into this person's situation, so instead, 418 00:25:40,200 --> 00:25:43,359 I respectfully kept my distance and I called in help 419 00:25:43,400 --> 00:25:47,599 from the other side. The ghost was quickly swept away, 420 00:25:47,880 --> 00:25:52,200 connected with the remains of its spirit. My viewport was 421 00:25:52,240 --> 00:25:55,559 then swept up into the next intersection, where there was 422 00:25:55,599 --> 00:25:59,440 another ghost caught in a geological energy. It was an 423 00:25:59,480 --> 00:26:02,559 older man, and he knew he was deceased, which was 424 00:26:02,599 --> 00:26:06,880 not always the case with ghosts. He refused any help 425 00:26:06,920 --> 00:26:09,640 in crossing over because he was waiting for his wife, 426 00:26:09,680 --> 00:26:14,480 who had passed away nearly twenty years ago. After her death, 427 00:26:14,599 --> 00:26:17,359 he spent the rest of his life mourning waiting to 428 00:26:17,400 --> 00:26:20,839 be reunited with her. But when he died, he carried 429 00:26:20,880 --> 00:26:24,119 with him the pain he felt from her passing, and 430 00:26:24,160 --> 00:26:27,119 though she was already on the other side, there he 431 00:26:27,319 --> 00:26:30,319 was trapped in his heartache and waiting for her. Still, 432 00:26:31,279 --> 00:26:35,920 such was the devotion of his love. In fairly quick order, 433 00:26:36,039 --> 00:26:38,680 I asked for help from the other side, and his 434 00:26:38,759 --> 00:26:43,640 wife appeared, and after an indescribably beautiful and joyous reunion, 435 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:47,839 they both vanished. A wonderful imagery came into my mind 436 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:49,920 of the two of them sitting side by side on 437 00:26:49,960 --> 00:26:52,920 the porch of an old farmhouse, and they were holding 438 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:56,079 hands and enjoying the ambience in view of a lovely 439 00:26:56,200 --> 00:27:00,799 late spring day. Cups of lemonade sat beside them. The 440 00:27:00,880 --> 00:27:04,480 air was sweet, and there was a perfect light breeze. 441 00:27:04,559 --> 00:27:08,279 It was their personal sense of heaven. But my work 442 00:27:08,319 --> 00:27:11,319 that night wasn't over. I could see another ghost down 443 00:27:11,319 --> 00:27:14,160 the road a few blocks. I supposed it to be 444 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:17,039 a ghost because it looked like a human crouching down. 445 00:27:17,359 --> 00:27:21,359 Yet the figure was just a flat black void. Its 446 00:27:21,440 --> 00:27:24,680 dark shape had a thin outline of bright yellow light, 447 00:27:25,119 --> 00:27:28,720 so I supposed it had a little energy left. It 448 00:27:28,759 --> 00:27:31,400 was stuck at the edge of the parking lot, caught 449 00:27:31,519 --> 00:27:36,440 on some geological energies. My view carried me closer to 450 00:27:36,480 --> 00:27:41,160 it and when it sensed me it attacked. I was surprised, 451 00:27:41,160 --> 00:27:43,559 to say the least. It was the ghost of a 452 00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:46,880 large cat, and all I could see were the claws 453 00:27:47,039 --> 00:27:49,960 and the fans going from my face and neck, and 454 00:27:50,000 --> 00:27:54,799 the spots covering its body. It was jaguar spots. They 455 00:27:54,839 --> 00:27:59,000 say every second with a jaguar is sixty stitches, which 456 00:27:59,039 --> 00:28:02,359 at the moment was easy to believe. So I called 457 00:28:02,359 --> 00:28:05,519 from help from the other side, but they seemed reluctant 458 00:28:05,559 --> 00:28:10,039 to assist because this was not a human ghost. I 459 00:28:10,079 --> 00:28:12,039 tried to make the point that the ghost was the 460 00:28:12,079 --> 00:28:15,799 recording of the life of a sentient animal and might 461 00:28:15,839 --> 00:28:19,240 therefore have some interest to spirit, which is where all 462 00:28:19,319 --> 00:28:23,400 ghosts end up. With my argument, they took the ghost 463 00:28:23,480 --> 00:28:27,279 of the jaguar away, and in hindsight I suspect the 464 00:28:27,400 --> 00:28:31,440 jaguar having a ghost at all was a mistake. Formerly, 465 00:28:31,599 --> 00:28:36,119 their natural range was about where the California Oregon border lies, 466 00:28:36,519 --> 00:28:39,480 but a jaguar without a map to consult could have 467 00:28:39,640 --> 00:28:43,839 wandered off over one hundred years ago without competition and 468 00:28:43,880 --> 00:28:47,359 become disoriented. I'm not going to say it was good 469 00:28:47,400 --> 00:28:51,279 to meet it, but I did learn something I have 470 00:28:51,359 --> 00:28:54,480 come to find that ghosts are fragments of a person's 471 00:28:54,599 --> 00:28:58,839 spirit that feel they still have something to do. Ghosts 472 00:28:59,079 --> 00:29:01,960 tend to see things as they were when they were 473 00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:06,000 alive and are often reluctant to leave. But getting even 474 00:29:06,039 --> 00:29:10,319 the toughest of ghosts crossover is doable with the right head, 475 00:29:10,799 --> 00:29:14,599 a good heart, and help from the other side. I 476 00:29:14,640 --> 00:29:18,359 have helped hundreds of ghosts cross over through the years, 477 00:29:18,440 --> 00:29:22,119 though lately I deal with fewer of them. There is 478 00:29:22,279 --> 00:29:25,599 often a heart wrenching or brutal story behind their death, 479 00:29:25,680 --> 00:29:28,640 and knowing too many details can make it difficult to 480 00:29:28,759 --> 00:29:32,559 stay objective, which is critical in my line of work. 481 00:29:33,599 --> 00:29:36,839 Some of the ghosts' history comes across as physical and 482 00:29:36,920 --> 00:29:40,599 emotional pain, and even though I know it's not mine, 483 00:29:40,599 --> 00:29:42,720 there is a limit to how much I'm able and 484 00:29:42,799 --> 00:29:45,839 willing to take. So I try to show love and 485 00:29:45,920 --> 00:29:48,559 compassion to the ghosts for what they have been through. 486 00:29:49,359 --> 00:29:53,000 Is doing so eliminates the conditions we were dealing with. 487 00:29:53,680 --> 00:29:56,599 I also try to love everyone living, though I have 488 00:29:56,720 --> 00:30:00,240 to admit I'm not at all good at that. One 489 00:30:00,240 --> 00:30:03,599 thing I've learned from the many encounters I've had is 490 00:30:03,640 --> 00:30:07,079 that your actions in life every good and bad deed 491 00:30:07,160 --> 00:30:10,519 you've ever done, every time you apologize or decided not to, 492 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:14,160 every time you helped or looked the other way, all 493 00:30:14,200 --> 00:30:16,880 seemed to carry over in one way or another to 494 00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:19,920 the other side. There is a good lesson in that, 495 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:22,839 try to be a good person. It may get you 496 00:30:22,920 --> 00:30:28,119 further in the afterlife. Warm regards, and she signs off 497 00:30:28,119 --> 00:30:34,200 on the email. I don't y'all may have heard me 498 00:30:34,240 --> 00:30:37,279 say this before, but I don't believe in ghosts. I've 499 00:30:37,279 --> 00:30:41,279 never seen one. I know people like this writer claim 500 00:30:41,319 --> 00:30:44,519 they engage them all the time, and that's fine, and 501 00:30:44,680 --> 00:30:47,960 that may be the truth. I've just never seen anything 502 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:51,559 like this, nothing at all. And some people might say, well, 503 00:30:51,599 --> 00:30:55,799 you're not open to it, You're you're not clairvoyant. Is 504 00:30:55,799 --> 00:31:00,359 that the word clairvoyant? Anyway, I'm not a medium. I'm 505 00:31:00,400 --> 00:31:06,880 just stupid. And I believe in one God, one savior. 506 00:31:08,000 --> 00:31:10,839 That's my belief system. And I believe we're either here 507 00:31:11,319 --> 00:31:15,920 or there. We're either here or there, We're nowhere in between. However, 508 00:31:16,200 --> 00:31:18,440 this channel is and there are a lot of people 509 00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:20,720 in the audience who believe the same way I do. 510 00:31:21,240 --> 00:31:22,799 But there are a lot of people in the audience 511 00:31:22,799 --> 00:31:26,160 who don't and I don't have any problem with this 512 00:31:26,200 --> 00:31:29,000 woman's email at all. Heck, I just read it to 513 00:31:29,079 --> 00:31:32,400 you because it's an interesting story. I mean to me. 514 00:31:32,920 --> 00:31:35,960 I mean, if you just distance yourself from your belief 515 00:31:36,079 --> 00:31:39,359 system and open your mind to what other people experience, 516 00:31:39,839 --> 00:31:44,079 not accept that is the truth, but just open your 517 00:31:44,160 --> 00:31:48,279 mind and be willing to hear other people's experiences, they 518 00:31:48,319 --> 00:31:51,920 become great stories. And that's all this channel is about. 519 00:31:52,279 --> 00:31:54,960 So I read them all. There's been a couple that 520 00:31:55,079 --> 00:31:58,920 I haven't read because they were just too These are 521 00:31:58,960 --> 00:32:02,759 people who had really really hard childhood things going on, 522 00:32:03,000 --> 00:32:05,519 and it did not belong on this channel. But it 523 00:32:05,559 --> 00:32:08,160 had to do with ghosts, but it had to do 524 00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:12,240 with some terrible abuse as children, and I just could 525 00:32:12,279 --> 00:32:15,599 not put it on here just because it just wasn't decent. 526 00:32:15,759 --> 00:32:19,680 It wasn't a decent story. It's a story they need 527 00:32:19,720 --> 00:32:23,759 to tell a professional so that they can get help 528 00:32:23,960 --> 00:32:27,799 with what they're doing. But just these generic ghost stories. Heck, 529 00:32:27,920 --> 00:32:31,480 I learned something here. People who believe in ghosts now 530 00:32:31,799 --> 00:32:34,440 they believe in animal ghosts, Like animals are on the 531 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:37,480 same level with humans in their mind. That's cool. I 532 00:32:37,480 --> 00:32:40,160 don't have any problem with that. This was a really 533 00:32:40,200 --> 00:32:43,240 good story and that's why it's in this podcast. So 534 00:32:43,440 --> 00:32:46,720 thank you very much to the writer the Ghost Doctor. 535 00:32:47,839 --> 00:32:50,400 It was really a good story and I appreciate it. 536 00:32:50,440 --> 00:32:54,640 Thank you, ma'am. Thanks again for joining me on this podcast. 537 00:32:54,759 --> 00:32:57,680 On your screen right now is a link that you 538 00:32:57,720 --> 00:33:01,759 can click to the hat Man podcast called The hat Man. 539 00:33:02,279 --> 00:33:04,920 Take a listen to that one.
