Review: Beyond The Edge Radio 11-02-07
This was a great show, with Cincinnati, Ohio Fortean researcher Ron Schaffner discussing his research into such things as the Loveland Frog, Bigfoot and other hominids, giant Owls, the Jacobs photos, UFOs and other Anomalous and Cryptozoological happenings. The show actually started out with Scott Hackenslash who discussed some of the latest DVD horror releases. Ron was the guest for about 90 minutes, then Sean brought Bill Green on (who arrived to listen to the show about an hour late, shame shame!!! LOL) who asked his usual questions about new Sasquatch activity and also gave an opinion on the Jacobs photos. God bless Bill, SQuatchMEDIA wouldn't be the same without him. Anyway, it was a great show, full of great information. The next program will have paranormal investigator Patty Wilson next Friday at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central at the link to the right. By the way, all Beyond The Edge Radio shows are 2 hours every Friday night, and Sean and Eric are doing an EXCELLENT job so far. As always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

Blog posts from Daniel Perez
Coverage of the 40th Anniversary of the P-G Film
Road to Bluff Creek
With the faithful on the Sasquatch stations of the cross
Story and photo
by Steven Streufert
Conference presenter Daniel Perez critiques the professional skeptics at Fortean Times magazine.
“Roger and Bob rode out that day/Their lives changed in every way/So did ours ’cause we got to see/A living Bigfoot, walking tall and free,” sang Tom Yamarone, belting out the verses of one of his Bigfoot folk-historical ballads.
Yamarone’s lyrics rang true inside the Willow Creek VFW Hall a couple of weekends ago, where 50 or so members of the Sasquatch community gathered to celebrate the 40th anniversary of the fabled “Patterson-Gimlin film.” The film, shot by the “Roger and Bob” of Yamarone’s song, is the most solid Bigfoot evidence ever presented. (See “Bigfoot Trapped By Norcal Fanatic!” Oct. 18.)
Believers from near and far made the pilgrimage on Oct. 20 — first to Willow Creek, and then out to the remote site where the film was shot, there to pay their respects to the historic event and to share the latest research.
A shimmer of possibility filled the VFW Hall. Bigfooting, it seems, is as much about the community of ’Squatchers as it is about the Giant Hairy Ape itself.Something had changed these folks who, despite otherwise ordinary lives, were ready to pursue to the ends of the Earth a creature most consider a phantasm. Curiosity and the spirit of rational inquiry were readily apparent, noted in thorough documentation covering the walls. Noting no sign of lunacy, it occurred to me that the crazy ones were the journalists sitting in their barren offices cranking out the same old dismissals.
Daniel Perez, authority on logistics of the making of the Patterson-Gimlin film, argued that the subject could not have been faked. That muscle mass moving with each huge stride, the height and inhuman proportions — could that have been produced with padding and fake fur? The strides through the film site of a 6’4” man reveal his tiny homo sapiens form beside a creature that could smash him with one stomp. (“If the suit doesn’t fit, he must exist.”)
No one has been able to replicate the film, even with a $75,000 BBC budget. Perez presented a 16mm Kodak Cine-100 home movie camera, the model that Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin used. I felt its awkward bulk and saw the creature on the projection screen through its tiny, dim viewfinder. How anything was captured by this camera with its tiny 16 mm cartridge is miracle enough.
Legendary Al Hodgson, for decades the operator of the general store, also spoke. He was a contact not only for the Patterson-Gimlin film but also the 1958 activity in the area, when tractor driver Jerry Crew brought giant footprint casts down from the Bluff Creek road construction zone and made front page news in the Times-Standard and papers globally. This was the birth of “Bigfoot” as a media phenomenon. Presenting the recent North Coast Journal with its cover’s tabloid parody, Hodgson said: “You may have seen this — don’t like it.” Chuckles and groans emerged. Bigfoot was not a joke to this crowd.
Hodgson presented tales told to him by locals, without even a hint of the tall tale in the telling from this 83-year-old church-going business and family man. Of one of his informants, Al said, “He is not lying — know him too well.” Hodgson saw sightings as ordinary. The Sasquatch is a consistently documented though elusive primate, the origin of old frontier tales and centuries-old Native cultural representations. Without seeking it out, people see it, hear its howls and vocalizations, find footprints or feel its wild, cunning eyes gazing from hillsides that could hide just about anything.
Cliff Barackman spoke lovingly of his “foot fetish,” with evidence that footprints found in 1958 appear to have been made by the same individual in the 1967 film (as confirmed by Idaho State anatomist and physical anthropologist Jeff Meldrum). Scott McClean traced the history of newspaper reporting going back to the 1840s, predating the birth of hoaxer claimants like Bluff Creek road contractor Ray Wallace by nearly a century. David Murphy outlined the biography of Roger Patterson — author, filmmaker, cowboy, acrobat and inventor. Humboldt’s James “Bobo” Fay completed the round with tales of early 1940s Bluff Creek bigfooter Irwin Supple. The event concluded with a convivial champagne toast to Roger and Bob. Then plans for a convoy into the mysterious hills to the north were made.
The miles upon miles of real wilderness in the Six Rivers National Forest, accessed by hellish boulder-strewn and mud-laden dirt roads to the middle of nowhere, embody the wild mystery. The high-speed night trip led by Bobo, who seems to treat these mountains like his local neighborhood, was a soul-wrenching experience in itself. My little VW started bottom-grinding in thick snow at about 4,000 feet. After two hours of nasty tree-dodging, slippery hell, we crossed the 1958 bridge and entered Louse Camp, down on Bluff Creek. This was a place of history, where the 1959-1962 Pacific Northwest Expedition had set up digs. Bustling with activity and a roaring campfire, a keg of Bluff Creek Ale (note the Bigfoot on the label) was already tapped. A call-blasting speaker system and high-tech thermal imaging gear was out.
Later I walked with Bobo down the road illuminated by the white thermal viewer’s glow as we sought forms in the dark. His group had seen Sasquatch activity in the last few months just a few yards away. With sentries staked out in turns on the hillside, the campfire devolved into folk songs and Bigfoot tales. I was up until 4 a.m. discussing the paranormal and psychic aspects of the phenomenon, multi-dimensionality and string theory with sometime paranormalist author and field researcher Thom Powell. A schoolteacher and logical man, he brought up Occam’s Razor — the idea that the simplest answer is often the best one. Actually, the existence of a Bigfoot creature explains it all with more facility than hoaxing or hallucination.
The next day, descending about 2,000 near-vertical feet to the creek below, we made our way to the film site. Soon we found ourselves gazing upon what looked like footprints only 30 yards from our vehicles. Stunned, I immediately felt the energy of conversion starting to overcome me. One print in shallow moss and mud measured 22 inches. Toe shapes were visible. Preceding this in a patch of moss was another browned and deadened area, foot-shaped. The step between them was six feet, about double that of the average human.
Researcher Scott McClean calmly got out his ruler and measured the particulars, took a quick photo, and moved on. I stood stunned. Could it be real? It’s inconclusive, he said; a “blobsquatch,” is all. That’s just squatch-on-the-brain, he said. What we need is real, provable evidence.
With the Weekly World News defunct, can Bigfoot at last roam freely into our unbiased awareness? There is more evidence for Sasquatch, tangible and scientific, than there is for God, the Devil, reincarnation or the soul. One doesn’t catch fleeting glimpses of Babe the Blue Ox. Sasquatchers are in search of the last mystery of the wild American land, the living embodiment of the fact that humans are not the central meaning of the earth, nor in complete knowledge or domination of it.
Asking about my angle on this story, McClean said, “Just don’t use that word, ‘believe.’” It is not, he said, a matter of faith, but of fact — it is out there. Hoaxes and hallucinations do occur, but the time has come for us to consider that perhaps there is more to the natural world than dreamed of in our philosophies. These guys are living it.

Willow Creek honors legendary Bigfoot filmmakers with 40th Anniversary Celebration
Beti Trauth/For the Times-Standard
Article Launched: 10/18/2007 04:27:25 AM PDT
Amazing reality or cleverly manipulated fiction? That's been the paradoxical question posed over the past 40 years since a grainy, black and white 16 mm film captured the startling image of what appeared to be a towering man/ape creature lumbering through the woods of Bluff Creek in Northern California.
Christened “Bigfoot” in honor of the enormous footprints discovered in the area of the film's visual record of the extraordinary sighting, the two men on the site that historic day north of Willow Creek back in 1967 startled the world with their documented discovery.
Armed with both their film and plaster casts made from the huge footprints, Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin make global headlines and started a controversy that continues to this day: Does a species of Bigfoots actually exist in the remote, wooded and mountainous areas where the 60-second film was made? Or, as skeptics decry, has it all been an elaborate hoax?
No matter what anyone's personal opinion may be concerning the truth of the matter, the subject has spawned thousands of words of pro and con theories. There have been countless expeditions into the elusive creatures' perceived territory to try and prove they are not mythological,

but flesh, fur and blood.
Other filmmakers have tried to recreate a similar “image” (using a really big man in an “ape suit” to simulate what they insist the Patterson-Gimlin Film did); but they have always failed to do so.
The way that Bigfoot moved and walked in the original -- including the long strides that left those deep imprints of feet in the forest floor -- has never been physically explained, much less disproved on celluloid.
As a matter of fact, similar, fleeting sightings in various places, have been going on for years. In the Asian Himalayas, he's known as Yeti; but in the mountains of Canadian British Colombia, the name is Sasquatch.
In Willow Creek at 10 a.m. Saturday, the community will affectionately welcome both the essence of Bigfoot and his loyal affectionados at the 40th anniversary celebration of the Patterson-Gimlin film.
The program will feature a series of presentations and discussions by a variety of knowledgeable guest speakers, with archival displays, personal testimonials and even some Bigfoot-inspired songs -- all based on what could be described as the most famous piece of wildlife footage ever taken.
According to enthusiasts, due to the improved technology now available, the film as been able to be analyzed “to show extraordinary detail and compelling features that leave little doubt regarding the authenticity of the creature in those frames.”
The celebration's organizer, Bay Area resident Tom Yamorone, said it was the co-idea of himself and Joyce Kearney.
”We met at The Bigfoot Discovery Museum in Felton (near Santa Cruz) that opened about three years ago -- with displays of artifacts, footprint casts, and a gigantic skull recreation by Dr. Grover Franz.”
Yamorone and Kearney -- along with most of the Californians speaking at the Willow Creek event -- are members of what could be called a Bigfoot Believers Club (formed by the museum), who stay in touch with fellow believers throughout the world.
They do so, Yamorone explained, because now there's even more evidence on which to base their collective beliefs.
Within the group there are a number of people who have actually seen the creatures -- or experienced and possibly recorded -- the sounds of their voices (or found physical evidence of their activities).”
Others, like Yamorone, have simply become fascinated with the ongoing, unanswered mystery that is Bigfoot.
”Growing up in Los Angeles, I was always interested in the topic because my family often came up to Humboldt to camp in the redwoods.”
But, it wasn't until 2000 when he was visiting Willow Creek and saw the footprint cast collection -- “which I considered good, solid evidence” -- that he became a true believer.
”Once I saw the casts -- especially after having spent so much time up in these forests and experiencing things I couldn't explain -- I suddenly realized that these creatures could actually exist.”
He became even more certain after seeing an early thought-provoking television documentary on the famous film, as well as a more recent 20 minute segment exploring the possibility on the History Channel.
Moreover, there have been current books written by respected science-based authors that further validate Krantz's theories. One by Idaho State University's Dr. Jeff Meldrum is titled “Sasquatch: Legend Meets Science.”
The bok basically outlines “what we know about these creatures, and other of what we call the bipedal hominids (any of the early forms of man, whose descents may include the upright ape).” Every evolutionary possibility continues to be hotly debated within different scientific camps.
According to Yamarone, Meldrum's book “tends to conclude that the behaviors witnessed by people who have seen Sasquatch, falls within those of the great apes -- although those evolutionary elements are always hotly debated.”
Yet another book based on similar research findings was published by a respected wildlife biologist from British Colombia, John Bindernagel, titled “Sasquatch: America's Great Ape.”
Based on thousands of documented sightings by trusted observers, he studied and carefully compared the behavior of man and ape. The biologist then came to a similar conclusion as that reached by Meldrum.
Whenever there are new sightings reported by individuals, there are a number of separate Bigfoot-related organizations (such as The Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization of which Yamarone is a member), who follow up these reports and do their own field investigations.
So, there are hundreds of interested groups out there ready to verify these incidents as true, or not. However, someone who has encountered creatures that he believes to be a community living in the wilds of Klamath, will share first-hand accounts of those experiences at the 40th Anniversary Celebration.
He's James “Bobo” Fay, a Southern California native (now living in Arcata) who was initially intrigued by the film during his high school days, “came up to Humboldt with my buddies 20 years ago on a Bigfoot hunt,” and subsequently became a field researcher.
Often accompanied by Grizzly Creek forest ranger, Robert Leiterman, the pair have spent the past four or five years (at least twice a year) on Bigfoot scouting expeditions throughout the Klamath River area, up into the Trinity Alps, and deep into Redwood National Park.
That has included “making special calls, knocking on trees, and blasting out audios of what we believe are Bigfoot recordings to see if we can get a live response.” He says he's sure “there's definitely a population of them around the Klamath River up there in those drainages.
”I've heard them when they come around, and they'll do certain things (like knock on trees, or snap them off); and they'll make a definite primate sound -- kind of like a chimp or a howler monkey making a whooping sound. (We recorded some of these.)
”I've also gotten eye-witness accounts from lots of different people -- such as loggers and hunters -- but mostly from the Indians who live here with their families.” He said, that tribe members know them not as imaginary spirits, but as real creatures who have co-existed there in the wilderness for years.
Interestingly enough, it was Fay himself who made the most recent 2007 Sasquatch sighting in the field. On the evening of May 22 during a camping trip with five other field researchers in Six Rivers National Park near Orleans, Fay said he was walking by the confluence of Bluff and Notice Creeks and saw the 6-foot figure of “one of the smaller ones” hurriedly cross the road, go down the steep wooded embankment and disappear into the dark below.
Although Fay wasn't able to capture visual proof of his encounter on film this time around, he feels he's previously caught enough glimpses of creatures who fit the original film demographic to believe an ever-elusive Bigfoot is exactly what he saw.
Fay said that he thinks that in the next few years, it will be “a real slap in the face of the main stream media who have just made light of it and mocked it all of this time. Because it's actual -- it's a certainty -- and, I've seen it. I've seen it.” And, he's more than ready to tell the audience about his experiences on Saturday.
Keynote speaker, Daniel Perez (author and publisher of Bigfoot Times and “Bigfoot at Bluff Creek”), will kick off the event at 10 a.m. by tracing the effects of the honored film since it was first given coverage 40 years ago in the pages of the Eureka Time-Standard.
In a rare conversation and interview with Gimlin not long ago for his Bigfoot-oriented paper, Perez said that the surviving, feisty 76-year-old filmmaker “couldn't believe that 40 years has gone by, and no one (else) has produced a film of similar quality -- much less captured one of these things.”
And, Perez said Gimlin was actually “beside himself and amazed--in the sense that nothing has ever been resolved. He said he kind of figured that after that film was shot, that sooner or later (within a couple of years) someone would 'get one'--and it just never happened.” Well, not yet. But with persistent folks like Fay out there searching, who knows?
Other featured participants at the celebration include David Murphy, who is currently researching and writing a Patterson biography, and Scott McClean, who will share archival research from his book “Big New Prints.”
Cliff Barackman will also display and discuss footprint casts from the film site and Bluff Creek area; and organizer, Yamarone, will add to the festivivities by performing a musical tribute to Patterson and Gimlin.
So, come to Willow Creek and make your own decision about the reality of Bigfoot as you join the 40th anniversary celebration of the Bigfoot film that keeps making history. Believe it!
Reservations are required for lunch; and seating is limited. Although walk-ups are welcome, call (415) 420-7583 to ensure seats are available before making the drive.

Review: Monsterquest 10-31-07/Sasquatch Triangle Tonight...
The premiere episode of Monsterquest featured a look at the resident lake monster of Lake Champlain on the New York/Vermont border known as "Champ." The show examined the sightings (and showed several recreations of sightings, including one of two such creatures on land), as well as the famous photograph of the creature taken in 1977 by Sandra Mansi. Investigators John Kirk and Scott Mardis are interviewed for their impressions on the creature as well, and several professors and paleontologists are interviewed as well. One lady and her team got some interesting echoes from an echolocator in 2002 on the lake, and a team of photographers scours the lake looking for signs of the creature with underwater cameras as well as cameras set up on the shore. The Mansi photograph is put under scrutiny by Skeptical Inquirer Managing Editor Benjamin Radford, who comes up with a rather plausible explanation for the photograph and what is in it. It was a very well-done program. The next program next Wednesday night on the History Channel will be titled Sasquatch Attack and will look into the hirsute legend of our neighbors to the north. That program airs at 10:00 EST/9:00 Central, so check your local listings for showtimes and channel.

Thoughts from Billy Willard
I have something to say about a recent incident that occurred here
tonight with the unsubscription of a member.
I find it rather amusing that he had to announce to the group that he
was leaving. Pretty much after coming onto Tom Biscardi's radio show
chat room and bashing everyone who was present at the recent Paris,
Texas expedition, he decides that he will annnounce to the group of
his leaving. Well, I say this...
We ALL have our opinions of people and unfortunately alot of it is
based on heresay. I met Mr. Biscardi personally on the trip, got to
talk to him quite a bit and in general he is a very nice guy. He was
very hospitable to Tom Lancaster and myself as well as his crew. I
personally have been doing enough research now to know whether or not
I'm being hoaxed. This recent person who announced his leaving tried
to say we were hoaxed. BULLCRAP!!! Sorry buddy, but I have been
around the block a few times! If there is one thing I won't stand
for its someone trying to take advantage of a particular situation to
try to make themselves look like a better investigator/ researcher
than someone else. So, by jumping on the "Biscardi hate group" bus
and then announcing his exit from this group simply because we went
down to Texas to check things out and associated ourselves with Tom
Biscardi, that makes us the bad guys? PLEASE!!! My god, what are
you going to do if he brings the proof of the creature's existance to
the world? Quit all the groups? LOL!!!
I have nothing but respect for Mr. Biscardi and his group. And I
would hope that those who know me know that if any funny crap was
going on, I would be the first to let you know. The experiences that
Tom Lancaster and myself had were REAL. We knew where everyone was
at all times. If anyone has any questions or comments at all about
our recent Paris, Texas adventure, we would be more than happy to
discuss or answer. Just simply let us know.
Ok, now I am done ranting! LOL

Deploying the latest in hi-tech equipment, each episode scientifically examines the best evidence available, from pictures and video, to hair and bones, as well as the eyewitness accounts themselves. From pilots to policemen to ship captains, a number of seemingly credible people have seen things they can’t explain. One part history, one part science and one part monsters, MonsterQuest discovers the truth behind these legendary monsters.
America’s Loch Ness Monster - Does a giant prehistoric creature lurk in Lake
Champlain? The locals nicknamed it Champ. Generations of eyewitnesses rumor to have seen the creature, a dinosaur-like animal, 15-25 feet long most resembling the extinct plesiosaur. Examine the mystery surrounding Lake Champlain as specially designed cameras search for the monster. Existing photographic evidence will also be put to the test.
Series Premiere October 31 at 10PM
Sasquatch Attack - Does Canada have its own Bigfoot? Owners of a fly-in fishing
cabin report attacks by an unknown creature. Can DNA tests on blood and tissue
from the alleged beast reveal its true identity? The test results will surprise
you. The best evidence available will be examined, from pictures and video, to
hair and bones. Scientists will be brought in to tell viewers what the evidence
reveals. Discover the truth behind these beasts and take a scientific look at
legendary creatures around the world.
Wednesday November 7th at 10PM
Giant Squid Found - Is the legend of the Kraken, a tentacled beast as large as a
whale, based on myth or a real creature? Take an expedition to the Sea of
Cortez, Mexico where fishermen regularly claim to encounter large schools of
giant squid. Watch as squid expert Scott Cassel uses lures with built-in cameras
in an attempt to video a Kraken-sized squid 1,000 feet below the ocean. What
Cassel and his team discover will make history.
Wednesday November 14th at 10PM
Birdzilla - Native Americans have long revered huge birds called Thunderbirds.
There was a rash of giant bird sightings in Illinois, Texas and Alaska back in
the 1970’s. A giant bird with a 15-foot wingspan allegedly attacked a small
child in Illinois. Could there really be a giant bird or is it mass hysteria?
Take a scientific journey and follow the many eyewitnesses’ accounts across the
country and examine the most compelling evidence.
Wednesday November 21st at 10PM
Bigfoot - Bigfoot has been sighted in Washington State more than any other place
on earth. Join an all-female expedition as they try to lure a Bigfoot within
range of their cameras. The 1967 Patterson footage will be reexamined using
digital microscopes that could reveal details that might prove if the beast is
real or a hoax.
Wednesday November 28th at 10PM
Mutant Canines - Man’s best friend is many times our last line of defense. But
something strange is killing Fido. In 2006, a rash of pets were killed in Maine
and Minnesota by a beast locals describe as a mutant. But there are more than
just stories, a creature was hit by a car and the body was found. This strange
looking creature will be DNA tested to see what it really is. And two
MonsterQuest winter expeditions will be launched to trap other dog killers still
at large.
Wednesday December 5th at 10PM
Lions in the Suburbs - Attacks by mountain lions make headlines across the U.S.
But some people say they are seeing something else…large black cats. From
Texas to Minnesota to West Virginia, MonsterQuest will follow the eyewitness
accounts and physical evidence of these demon cats. Pictures and law enforcement encounters prove a big black cat is out there but what is it? While they resemble a mountain lion, there is no such thing as a black mountain lion. Bones from a carcass, eyewitnesses claim was a huge black cat, will be put to the DNA test.
Wednesday December 12th at 10PM
Giant Fish - The movie Jaws scared an entire generation off of ocean
beaches…but there are monsters lurking in freshwater lakes and rivers too. Are
these just fish stories or are they real? From the Artic Circle to the Amazon,
MonsterQuest will launch expeditions to find the biggest and nastiest giant
fresh water fish. From catfish large enough to swallow kids whole to trout as
large as a boat. Scientists will deploy giant lures and underwater cameras in a
search for monster fish.
Wednesday December 19th at 10PM
Swamp Beast - The vast swamps of Louisiana and Florida hide many
animals…including a beast locals call The Swamp Creature. At 7 ft tall, with
red hair, and a rotten egg smell this beast has been nicknamed The Skunk Ape.
For the first time, bloodhounds will be used to track the elusive creature. And
sexual ape pheromone chips will be used to guide the bloodhounds to their prey.
Wednesday December 26th at 10PM
Stalin’s Ape Man - In 2006, the NY times revealed a devilish plan by Soviet
dictator Josef Stalin to create monsters by crossing humans with apes. But was
it real? And how far did he get? This MonsterQuest scientific journey will
travel to Russia to find out. We will also look at the many other efforts, both
by man and Mother Nature, to combine the strength of apes with the intelligence
of man. This is a real Frankenstein story& from head transplants in the U.S. to
cases of ape on human attacks. Man and Apes are not as different as you might
think.
Wednesday January 2nd at 10PM
Creatures from the 4th Dimension - For decades cameras have been capturing
images of a flying, torpedo-like creature. So fast it cannot be seen with the
naked eye. Some think it is a military weapon, others believe it may be a
creature from another dimension. But just what is it? This MonsterQuest
scientific journey will use super high speed photography, physics and even a
wind tunnel experiment to shed light on a creature simply referred to as Rods.
Wednesday January 9th at 10PM
The Real Hobbit - A MonsterQuest expedition will deploy researchers and the
latest technology into the jungle, searching for evidence of a creature natives
describe as half man, half ape.
Wednesday January 16th at 10PM
American Werewolf - Eyewitnesses in Wisconsin and Michigan report seeing a tall
hairy man - beast some describe as a dogman…a centuries old legend based on
myth, not a real animal. But what are they seeing? MonsterQuest will deploy
professional hunters and trackers in an area with recent sightings, armed with a
tranquilizer gun. And for the first time eyewitness accounts will be put to the
test, using polygraphs and hypnosis&the results will astonish.
Wednesday January 23rd at 10PM

Review: Squatch Detective Radio 10-29-07
This was a great show, with not only Steve, Billy and Tom Lancaster describing the sounds, footprints and red eyes 12 feet off the ground they saw, but also Jim Snell of TAPS and TJ (Tom Biscardi Jr.) giving their impressions on the expedition which took place in Paris, Texas last week and this weekend. I called in and gave my dissertations on the expedition, as well as giving an update on those photos from Pennsylvania (Keith Olbermann had a segment on the photos with Bob Kiviat earlier on Countdown with Keith Olbermann).
Steve and Billy as always put on a great show, and they have a true passion for their craft. I salute them now and always. I salute Tom Biscardi as well, because it seems like those asserting that he is a hoaxer or a con man or this or that are just most likely jealous. Anyway, great show from Steve and Billy. No clue as to who their guest will be next week, but Steve will be on the road with the Searching For Bigfoot Team, so it should be pretty exciting. The next show airs next Monday at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central and can be found at the link to the right. And as always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

Review: The Sasquatch Experience 10-28-07
We ended our Anniversary Month with a roundtable discussion on the historically important figures of the Sasquatch field, with Kathy Strain and Eric Altman, who discussed their interactions with folks like Al Hodgson, John Green, Peter Byrne, Grover Krantz and Bob Gimlin. The hour actually began with a discussion of the Lake Chelan photos, as well as the Jacobs photos from Northwest Pennsylvania. Kathy and Eric also discussed how their meetings with some of these icons were more of these icons wanting to get their pictures taken with Kathy and Eric than the hero-worship of the icons. Kathy and Eric told of how humble the icons they have met really are as well. It was a wonderful show, and a great capper to our Anniversary Month (we want to thank all those who have listened and supported us through this month-long celebration). We had a lot of fun this month. Our next program will be next Sunday at our usual time of 9:00 EST/8:00 Central with our guest hopefully Don Keating at the link to the right. As always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.
