<v Speaker 1>Bigfoot continues to dominate headlines and festival line ups across

2
00:00:03.879 --> 00:00:07.160
<v Speaker 1>the country. The biggest news making waves is the upcoming

3
00:00:07.200 --> 00:00:12.320
<v Speaker 1>Discovery Channel limited series Bigfoot Tucker, which debuts October twenty nine.

4
00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:16.000

<v Speaker 1>eighty seven disappearance of teenager Teresa Beer in California Sierra

6
00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:24.719
<v Speaker 1>National Forest, a case that bizarrely fingered Bigfoot as a suspect.

7
00:00:25.440 --> 00:00:30.280
<v Speaker 1>Investigators Jessica Chobot and LAPD veteran Robert Collier dig deep,

8
00:00:30.559 --> 00:00:35.560
<v Speaker 1>interviewing previously silent witnesses and evaluating new police findings involving

9
00:00:35.600 --> 00:00:39.640
<v Speaker 1>possible drug trafficking and serial killers, hoping to finally crack

10
00:00:39.679 --> 00:00:43.159
<v Speaker 1>the case. The network is fueling the social media fire

11
00:00:43.399 --> 00:00:46.799
<v Speaker 1>with the hashtag Bigfoot Took Her and promising fresh evidence

12
00:00:47.039 --> 00:00:51.320
<v Speaker 1>that could shift the Bigfoot narrative long term. Meanwhile, festival

13
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:55.240
<v Speaker 1>season is in full swing for fans and the cryptozoologically curious.

14

<v Speaker 1>Bigfootfestis drew an expected crowd of up to four thousand.

16
00:01:03.399 --> 00:01:06.719
<v Speaker 1>City Commissioner Mike Burgess heralded a surgeon out of state

17
00:01:06.840 --> 00:01:11.719
<v Speaker 1>visitors driven by a packed program, outdoor fun, cryptid crafts,

18
00:01:11.760 --> 00:01:16.319
<v Speaker 1>and appearances from well known bigfoot investigators like Alexander Pettikov

19
00:01:16.599 --> 00:01:21.040

20
00:01:21.079 --> 00:01:25.359
<v Speaker 1>panels and the obligatory Bigfoot calling contests for children not

21
00:01:25.519 --> 00:01:29.200
<v Speaker 1>to mention special VIP nocturnal hikes hoping for a brush

22
00:01:29.239 --> 00:01:33.760
<v Speaker 1>with the beast. Glasgow News Won and w CLU Radio

23
00:01:33.879 --> 00:01:37.599
<v Speaker 1>both note the buzz surrounding Park City and increased cryptid

24
00:01:37.599 --> 00:01:41.680
<v Speaker 1>tourism in the region. Down in Uncertain, Texas, the annual

25
00:01:41.680 --> 00:01:45.000
<v Speaker 1>Bigfoot Bash had family searching for the big guy. Beside

26
00:01:45.040 --> 00:01:49.159
<v Speaker 1>Catto Lake Award winning musicians topped the bill. Vendors hawked

27
00:01:49.200 --> 00:01:52.079
<v Speaker 1>sasquatch swag, and there was even word that the Guest

28
00:01:52.120 --> 00:01:54.719
<v Speaker 1>of honor himself, or at least someone in a very

29
00:01:54.760 --> 00:01:58.719
<v Speaker 1>convincing suit, would make an appearance. The festival went all

30
00:01:58.760 --> 00:02:03.079
<v Speaker 1>out with the kid's calling contest, silent auctions, and plenty

31
00:02:03.079 --> 00:02:05.280
<v Speaker 1>of the tongue in cheek fund you'd expect at the

32
00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:09.360
<v Speaker 1>fourth edition of this growing local tradition. Looking ahead, the

33
00:02:09.400 --> 00:02:13.680

34
00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:19.240
<v Speaker 1>celebrating a milestone twenty fifth anniversary. The cryptid community is

35
00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:22.560
<v Speaker 1>marking the somber news of doctor Jeff Meltram's passing, a

36
00:02:22.639 --> 00:02:27.719
<v Speaker 1>respected researcher whose absence will surely be felt. Matthew Moneymaker,

37
00:02:27.960 --> 00:02:31.439
<v Speaker 1>founder of the big Foot Field Researchers organization, will appear

38

40
00:02:39.800 --> 00:02:44.280
<v Speaker 1>expected to be a standing room only event. In the Northeast,

41
00:02:44.520 --> 00:02:48.960
<v Speaker 1>The main Bigfoot Festival happens October eighteenth to nineteenth, complete

42
00:02:48.960 --> 00:02:53.159
<v Speaker 1>with campfire stories, guided searches, and an emphasis on new

43
00:02:53.280 --> 00:02:57.240
<v Speaker 1>vertal sightings in the Bigelow Mountain area. Lauren Coleman of

45
00:03:02.919 --> 00:03:07.400
<v Speaker 1>recognition for Mainzone elusive hominid. On the culture front, New

46
00:03:07.479 --> 00:03:11.560
<v Speaker 1>York's The Tank is presenting the play Lesbian Bigfoot this month,

47
00:03:11.879 --> 00:03:16.759
<v Speaker 1>a genre bending theatrical wromp fusing queer identity and critted mythology,

48
00:03:17.360 --> 00:03:20.719
<v Speaker 1>showing that Bigfoot isn't just a wilderness legend, but also

49
00:03:20.840 --> 00:03:25.599
<v Speaker 1>a canvass for new human stories. Speculation continues to swirl

50
00:03:25.639 --> 00:03:29.120
<v Speaker 1>around possible new sightings and the identity of the Sierra

51
00:03:29.199 --> 00:03:32.960
<v Speaker 1>Cases perpetrator, but there have been no credible photographic or

52
00:03:32.960 --> 00:03:37.520
<v Speaker 1>biological relevations. Experts quoted in these conferences remind us that

53
00:03:37.919 --> 00:03:41.400
<v Speaker 1>for now, Bigfoot remains a master of myth and mystery,

54
00:03:41.800 --> 00:03:45.800
<v Speaker 1>center stage in America's quickie popcature. And that is it
