S7 Ep485: Is Bigfoot Alive and Thriving in an Alternate Dimension? Apr 06, 2023

Show notes

Bethany finally gets to talk about her favorite theory: Bigfoot is NOT a bear. He is a real being and surfing the divide between our dimension and his! Kathleen puts on her “I’m being a trooper” hat and listens to Bebe talk at her about the Interdimensional Bigfoot Theory! *NOTE: The show about an alien dad that Kathleen couldn’t remember was called “Out of This World!” Get ready for some Smoky Mountain talk. Brace yourself for a poo insincerator. It's a wild one this week, folks.
