Sasquatch Odyssey

In this explosive episode, Brian sits down with Eric Palacios of the Hairy Man Road YouTube channel to talk about his Bigfoot research, his documentary work, and the firestorm surrounding the new SXSW documentary Capturing Bigfoot. Eric shares the story behind his Texas Hairy Man Road investigations, his independent documentaries, and the FOIA requests that uncovered 911 calls, photos, and even wildlife-agency records referencing cryptids in places like Louisiana and Arizona.

He also breaks down his experience attending the SXSW screening in Austin, meeting director Mark Evansand Clint Patterson, and later taking part in a Q&A tied to the film.The conversation dives deep into the controversy over the Patterson–Gimlin film, including the documentary’s emotional focus on Clint Patterson and Patricia Patterson’s claims that the PGF was a hoax.

 Eric also discusses the newly surfaced 40-second 1966 Kodachrome clip connected to a Boeing engineer’s family, which he says appears to show the very same “Patty” suit seen in the Patterson–Gimlin film, along with side-by-side comparisons presented in the documentary.

We also get into the backlash that followed, including online attacks, threats, and doxxing, as this debate continues to divide the Bigfoot community. Check out Eric Palacios and the Hairy Man Road YouTube channel here:

Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube channel is back with two more stories from deep in the Alaskan bush. Be sure to click the link in the show notes and head over to Fred’s channel to subscribe.In this episode,

Fred shares two unsettling accounts of “Hairy Man” encounters reported from remote parts of Alaska. First, we hear from Nathaniel and Theresa, a married couple in their seventies who spent years homesteading in the Alaskan wilderness. What began as strange disturbances around their property gradually turned into something far more disturbing.

They experienced missing items, uprooted tree stumps, and terrifying screams in the early morning hours before a Native man finally gave them a name for what he believed was responsible: the “Hairy Man.” Theresa later saw a tall, humanlike figure with no visible neck near their chicken coop. After shots were fired, half of their chickens were found dead.

Months later, Nathaniel encountered a brownish-gray figure moving near their burn pit. Not long after, something struck their cabin, revealed itself at close range, and was shot at. In the days that followed, the couple heard distant howls and eerie call-and-response screams echoing through the area. A neighbor eventually fired shots to run it off, and the activity stopped for years.

Fred then shares Jacob’s story from a coastal village in Alaska.

 While out snowmachining with his cousin to gather firewood, the two men spotted what Jacob estimated to be a ten-foot-tall figure. They heard a powerful whoop, then later found themselves in a tense exchange of gunfire after the creature appeared to lift a log. When they returned, they discovered the cousin’s snowmachine had been destroyed and dragged into the trees.

What if the biggest hoax in the Bigfoot world isn’t the Patterson-Gimlin Film… but the tribalism surrounding it? In this episode, Brian takes a hard look at the fallout surrounding Capturing Bigfoot, the claims of new footage connected to the Patterson-Gimlin Film, and the deeper problem tearing the Sasquatch community apart: blind loyalty, faction-driven thinking, and the growing inability to examine evidence without picking a side.

This is not just a conversation about Roger Patterson, Bob Gimlin, Bluff Creek, or whether the PGF is authentic. It’s a deeper examination of how tribalism, identity, narrative, and online culture have reshaped Bigfoot research itself. From the Scopes Monkey Trial to modern social media pile-ons, this episode explores how people stop following evidence and start defending teams.If you care about Bigfoot research, Sasquatch evidence, the Patterson-Gimlin Film, Capturing Bigfoot, documentary analysis, cryptozoology, skepticism, debunking, belief, and the search for truth, this episode is for you.In this episode:
The real issue behind the Capturing Bigfoot controversy
Why the Patterson-Gimlin Film became symbolic instead of investigatory
How tribalism damages Sasquatch research
The psychology behind belief, identity, and the backfire effect
Why evidence must be tested, not protected
How the Bigfoot community risks becoming its own worst enemy
What honest inquiry actually looks like in cryptid research
This is a conversation about Bigfoot, yes — but it’s also about human nature, media manipulation, group identity, and what happens when curiosity gets replaced by allegiance.

If you’ve been frustrated by the Bigfoot community, Bigfoot documentaries, Patterson-Gimlin Film debates, or the culture wars inside Sasquatch research, this episode will hit home.

In this episode, Brian shares an email from a military veteran who served multiple combat tours in Afghanistan and wants the world to hear a story that's been buried for three decades. Matt, as he asks to be called, writes in about a confession made to him by a fellow soldier he calls Joe during a night of drinking while the two were stateside between deployments. Joe revealed that in the mid nineteen nineties, long before the war on terror, he was part of a small specialized team dispatched into an unnamed national park after two hikers went missing.

The male hiker's body was found twenty five feet up in a tree with his neck broken. The female hiker was never found. What search teams did find were massive humanoid footprints ranging from sixteen inches to nearly twenty three inches long pressed deep into the soil along a remote creek drainage. Joe's team was briefed by an unnamed civilian and given a single objective: locate and eliminate the creatures responsible.

What followed was a harrowing two day hunt through old growth forest that culminated in the killing of four creatures, including a female, a juvenile estimated at around five feet tall, and a massive adult male standing over eight feet tall that charged the team and injured two soldiers before being brought down. Within hours of the kills, an unmarked black helicopter arrived carrying a civilian recovery team that bagged the bodies and flew them out to an unknown location. The soldiers were debriefed, told the mission never happened, and ordered to never speak of it again. Matt believes every word Joe told him that night, and he wants you to hear it.

In this episode, Brian welcomes Melissa from Georgia to the show for a conversation that blends travel memories, Bigfoot research, and some of the strangest encounters she has ever experienced. They kick things off by reflecting on their recent trip to England for the red carpet premiere of My Bigfoot Life, sharing thoughts on the beauty of the UK countryside, the enchanting forests of Somerset, and how surprisingly similar the landscape felt to both Appalachia and the Pacific Northwest.

Melissa then dives into her lifelong fascination with Bigfoot, tracing it back to childhood memories with her father, old television specials, and early expeditions with the BFRO. What began as a fun curiosity eventually became something much deeper after a powerful nighttime encounter in West Virginia convinced her that something real was out there. From that point on, her journey expanded into investigations, expeditions across the country, media projects, and her well-known presence in the Bigfoot community.

The heart of the episode centers on Melissa’s most compelling personal experiences, including a little-known encounter in North Georgia involving a mysterious moving light she now believes may have been an orb, and a series of intense, unsettling events during filming at Land Between the Lakes. 

She shares stories of strange sounds, overwhelming physical sensations, possible telepathic impressions, shadowy entities, missing camera footage, and a terrifying moment involving what she and others believe may have been a rake-like creature. Throughout the conversation, Brian and Melissa explore the growing overlap between Bigfoot research and high strangeness, asking whether the phenomenon may be far more complex than either of them once believed.

They close with a thoughtful discussion about discovery, whether Sasquatch truly needs human recognition, and what revealing the species to the world might actually mean. Melissa also shares where listeners can follow her work with Relic Films and on social media.
