Review: Let's Talk Bigfoot! 12-12-07

This was a wonderful program, with Mr. Thomas Steenburg as the guest and Teresa back in the co-host chair. He discussed his research and reports in Canada and also the Pacific Northwest, as well as the recent Monsterquest episode on Sasquatch Attack and the DNA results which were examined of that. Discussion was also made of the question of aggression in the Sasquatch, and Steenburg told of aggression in other animals as compared to Sasquatch. Steenburg also tells of his possible sighting in 2003 after dark, as well as an attack by a grizzly on himself. It was a wonderful show, and Melissa and Teresa continue to have one of the best programs out there. Their next guest will be author Lee Murphy, next Wednesday at 10:00 EST/9:00 Central at the link to the right. As always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

Review: Monsterquest 12-12-07

This show examined melanistic big cats similar to mountain lions, only black in color. An Emil McCain is interviewed about his impressions on it, and a fellow named David Johnson shows his photos of a large black cat. Scott Lope, a director for a Big Cat preserve in Florida, examines the photos and believes it to be a domestic. Heidi Bailey, a biologist from Texas, agrees with Lope's findings. Several eyewitnesses are interviewed, from Oklahoma, Texas and Minnesota. A farmer in Choctaw, Oklahoma is interviewed regarding losing several livestock items on his farm due to a large black cat. A wildlife expert from the Sooner State is of the opinion that the cats are not black.
A fellow named Eric Atkison walks his fence line every night with a large spotlight and rifle with hollow-point bullets. He had a 250-pound Llama killed by an alleged large black cat. Eric finds a large cat track while out on his nightly walk. It is believed that the black cats might be black leopards. A professor at Johns Hopkins University believes large black cats are in people's heads. A farmer close to Atkison, Dale Smith, is also losing livestock to a large black "mountain lion". Smith and Atkison band together to try to hunt down the cat. A videotape taken in West Virginia of an alleged black cat is examined and determined to be inconclusive but interesting. There is some DNA found and sent to the mohawked Todd Disotell, who examines the evidence and finds-well, watch the encore for yourself to see. It was a fairly good episode. The next Monsterquest will deal with Giant Fish, next Wednesday at 10:00 EST/9:00 Central on the History Channel. Check local listings for time and channel.

Lions in the Suburbs December 12 at 10PM 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.

Review: Bigfoot Quest 12-11-07

This was a pretty good show, with new permanent co-hosts Mike Killen and Chris Julian, who helped interview Doug Bilby (AKA Bullet Maker of the Mid-America Bigfoot Research Center) who discussed activity on his property in Oklahoma, as well as photos taken with game cams of possible 'Squatches. Randy (don't remember his last name) called in and talked about the MABRC and the things he has witnessed on Doug's property, as well as the research he and Doug and others in the MABRC have done. I called in to ask where the photos of possible 'Squatches could be found online. It was a good show. The next show will be the final one of 2007, with guest Billy Willard, next Tuesday at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central at the link to the right.

Review: Squatch Detective Radio 12-10-07

This was a wonderful show, with myself, Sean Forker, Bill Green and Darin Richardson as roundtable discussion guests. We discussed such things as DNA, the kill/no-kill issue, some of the things found on expedition by Steve and the team he is with and other things. There was discussion and debate about a cow which was found killed by something in Alabama, with a broken neck and dislocated jaw. Don Keating called in and debated the dead cow issue with Steve and the rest of the panel, but was very respectful. Some thought Steve sounded a bit perturbed, but he sounded fine to me. Anyway, great show. Don't know what's on the schedule for next week, but it should be a good one, 9:00 EST/8:00 Central at the link to the right. As always, we do encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

Book Review: Dark Force

Author: Bill Bean

This book is absolutely compelling and interesting, and also frightening but ultimately uplifting. It is the story of the Bean family, an average, all-American family consisting of Bill Sr., Bill Jr., his younger brother Bobby, older sister Patti and mother Patricia who move into a home in Glen Burnie, Maryland, in 1970, and all were really put-upon by spirits, which Bill believes caused his father to abuse his mother. Bill Sr. became an alcoholic, and never believed in spirits occupying the home. The spirits were an "Undertaker" type with dark hair, black eyes, dark period clothing and a black hat; a red-haired man with a jagged scar on his face; an evil entity with no discernible features except red eyes and a woman spirit, which was almost angelic in her countenance and attitude. The small family, as well as members of the family such as Mom-Mom and Aunt Joyce, also experienced unusual happenings in the house. The hauntings went on for a decade until-well, I will let you read the book for yourself to see the rest of the details. I highly recommend this book for anyone who is a good fan of a good ghost story. It can be purchased at lulu.com and also Amazon.com (it can also be purchased as an e-book at lulu.com) Further details can be found
  • Here
  • on the story, and the book is a perfect example of what the power of positive thinking can do for a life which was shattered by nightly visits from malevolent spirits.

    Review: Beyond The Edge Radio 12-07-07

    This was a WONDERFUL show, with guest Bill Bean, who told his story of ghostly activity at the house he and his family lived in in Arundel, Maryland, which lasted for ten years, caused his father to be abusive (and then leave the family and move to Florida) and basically threatened to destroy the Bean family. Many questions were fielded from the chatroom, including from Bill Green, Craig Hines and Terrie Seech (who all won e-book copies of Bill's book Dark Force) as well as Scott Hackenslash's usual weekly Movie Review segment, in which he gave a year-in-review dissertation of some of the best Sci-Fi and Horror films of the year. There was also the debut of a new segment, called Paranormal News On The Five, put together by Sean Forker and very excellently done. Beyond The Edge Radio continues to be one of the best Paranormal radio programs on the Internet, and it is a pleasure to hear two hosts who are as knowledgeable as Sean and Eric. This was a TERRIFIC program. There is no guest announced for next week yet, but it should be a good one, and it airs next Friday at 9:00 EST/8:00 Central at the link to the right. As always, we do encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

    This was a wonderful show, with a special surprise return-Teresa Hall returned to the co-host chair!!! The guest was Daryl Colyer of the Texas Bigfoot Research Conservancy, who discussed things like a game-cam project known as Operation Forest Video which is going on in Texas and Oklahoma. Daryl also discussed his field research and work with the TBRC, and he stated that it was the initiative of Dr. George Schaller to put game-cams in the field to attempt to photograph a Sasquatch, and Daryl also works closely with Dr. Duane Schlitter who has said that if a photo of a Sasquatch is taken by a game-cam, that he would examine it. Melissa asked Daryl about possible hindrance from Texas state officials, and Daryl answered that there is no true resistance to the TBRC's activities. Daryl mentioned that diversity is very good in a group, and that it is a strength. Daryl also mentioned that there are 56 active members in the TBRC, and that he has been active with it since 2003. Daryl is also an advocate of being as subdued as possible and quiet as possible in the field. Daryl also briefly recounts his sighting in 2004 and attributes it to children laughing and also a loud stereo. It was a great show, full of great information. Melissa's next guest will be Thomas Steenburg, next Wednesday at 10:00 EST/9:00 Central at the link to the right. As always, we encourage you to please tune in and support great research.

    In an article by Robert Vinciguerra, the recent discovery of "mummified" remains of a duckbilled dinosaur in North Dakota is pointed out as an opportunity for evangelicals to incorrectly claim dinosaurs and man co-existed as recently as 6,000 years ago. The 2005 discovery of soft tissues in the legbone of an otherwise fossilized Tyrannosaurus rex is also pointed out by Vinciguerra as a point erroneously raised by the Christian creationists as an indication of a young Earth.
