Sasquatch Odyssey

In this episode, we take a deep dive into the experiences and investigations of Dan Nedrelo, a wildlife photographer and biologist from Wisconsin whose fascination with Sasquatch began in childhood. What started with the encouragement of a fifth-grade teacher evolved into a lifelong pursuit of understanding one of the most elusive figures in the natural world. Dan shares how those early moments of curiosity shaped his path, leading him into decades of field research, collaboration with fellow researchers, and countless hours spent in remote wilderness areas.Throughout the conversation, Dan recounts some of his most compelling experiences in the field, including the discovery of anomalous footprints, unexplained vocalizations, and the recurring presence of strange holes with sticks—an unusual phenomenon documented across multiple research locations. He offers thoughtful insight into the challenges of Bigfoot footprint analysis, emphasizing the fine line between misidentification and genuinely anomalous evidence.Drawing from investigations conducted across several states, Dan paints a vivid picture of the patterns, behaviors, and unanswered questions that continue to surround the Sasquatch phenomenon. The episode also explores Dan’s ongoing work with the Wildman Literature Group and the White Biped Project, initiatives dedicated to preserving eyewitness accounts, historical references, and modern research related to Bigfoot encounters. Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

Fred from the SubArctic Alaska Sasqutch YouTube Channel shares three chilling Sasquatch encounters from the Last Frontier. A surveyor working near Tuck in the late 1980s finds himself stalked by multiple creatures while mapping remote acreage north of the Parks Highway. What begins with rock throwing and glimpses of a gray-skinned, black-eyed figure through his transit scope escalates when his entire campsite ends up mysteriously hoisted into a tree. The harassment continues as trees crash across his path and shadowy figures close in from all directions.Fred also shares Brian's harrowing experience on the Richardson Highway near Delta Junction during a winter trip to help a friend with a broken-down snow machine. A black figure spotted on the snow leads to a terrifying pursuit through waist-deep powder, complete with a screaming creature and a truck that almost fails to start.The episode closes with Clint's snow machining trip near Paxton at the start of the Denali Highway, where a massive white Sasquatch with dark roots showing through its fur leaves enormous tracks in the snow. One witness ends up pinned under an 800 RMK snow machine, when his buddy drops the machine and runs.Check Out SubArctic Alaska Sasquatch Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

Welcome back to Sasquatch Odyssey. Tonight, we conclude The Bigfoot Journals. Seven men walked out of the hidden valley in November of seventeen ninety-nine. They carried knowledge that would haunt them for the rest of their lives... and a secret they swore never to reveal.In this final installment, we follow the Stone Expedition on their three-month winter journey home. We witness the debate that consumed them... publish or protect? We hear the oath sworn at Thornton's Tavern in Richmond, where seven survivors bound themselves to silence. And we learn what became of them all.Thomas Mercer, the scientist who died bitter in eighteen twenty-six, still regretting the discovery he could never publish. Sam Walker, who returned to the mountains he loved and passed peacefully in eighteen twenty-three. Josiah Whitfield, who found peace somewhere beyond the Mississippi. Solomon Reed, who carried his grandmother's wisdom north. Jim Sutton, whose last words were about the creatures.Young Zeke Stone, forever changed by his connection with the juvenile, gone by eighteen twenty. And Elijah Stone himself... who built a cabin in the Virginia mountains and watched the forest every night for twenty-seven years. We'll read his final journal entry, written on July fourth, eighteen twenty-six. The fiftieth anniversary of American independence. The day he passed the burden to his son. The chain of keepers had begun.Then we jump forward. Two centuries forward. To Marcus Stone, a history professor who inherits his estranged father's cabin... and discovers a trunk in the cellar that changes everything. The journals. The pendant. The truth.And finally, we witness what happens when Marcus leads a small expedition into the mountains. When the creatures reveal themselves once more. When the gesture of peace is given... and returned.This is the story of secrets that span generations. Of truths too dangerous to share. Of a family that watched and waited, keeper after keeper, century after century. And somewhere in those mountains... the creatures are still watching.They've always been watching. They always will be.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

In this episode, Brian sits down with Andy, a Virginia native whose life has been shaped by a series of unsettling and deeply personal encounters that began when he was just four years old. Andy takes listeners back to his earliest memories of glowing red eyes peering into the darkness outside his rural home, an experience that would mark the beginning of a lifelong connection to the unknown.As the years unfold, he recounts increasingly intense moments in the woods, from unexplained rock-throwing incidents and eerie, unidentifiable vocalizations while hunting, to overwhelming odors and strange activity that seemed to track him through the mountains of Virginia.Andy’s account is rich with detail and reflection, blending fear, curiosity, and a persistent search for understanding. He opens up about late-night investigations, moments of doubt, and the difficulty of reconciling these experiences with a world that often dismisses them outright.The conversation also explores the weight of skepticism, the challenge of putting language to something so elusive, and how these encounters have quietly but profoundly influenced the course of his life. Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.

Fred from Alaska is back with a terrifying story originally told by a man named Edwin. While exploring the remote and hauntingly quiet Snake Lake with a group of Filipino friends, Edwin had a close encounter with an enormous, human-like creature. Armed with only a 9mm pistol and a sense of curiosity, he found himself face-to-face with a towering being whose intimidating presence and strange, unexplainable behavior left the entire group shaken and confused.But that’s only the beginning. The episode also delves into other disturbing encounters from across Alaska’s vast wilderness—stories of shadowy figures near the Nok River, and a lone man’s brush with the unknown near the Sona River. Each account adds another layer to the growing body of eerie reports from the region, painting a picture of a land where the wild is truly wild—and perhaps inhabited by beings we’ve yet to understand.These firsthand tales highlight the fear, mystery, and awe experienced by those who have crossed paths with something extraordinary—and serve as a stark reminder that in Alaska’s deep wilderness, we may not be as alone as we think.Get Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.
