SO EP:729 The Sheriff Of Bigfoot Country: Part Four Feb 15, 2026

Show notes

In this episode, Brian continues reading from his upcoming book The Sheriff of Bigfoot Country, picking up with Part Four as the story reaches a turning point that changes everything. The classified Mount St. Helens documents reveal the full scope of Project Vulcan, a secret government operation to recover the bodies of creatures killed in the 1980 eruption. Military teams moved in under the cover of legitimate rescue operations, extracting remains before civilian responders could find them.
Medical reports describe three survivors, including one creature that lived for nearly three weeks before giving up and dying in a government facility. The autopsy findings are staggering, pointing to a species with cranial capacity far exceeding modern humans and brain structures suggesting complex language and abstract reasoning.
Four witnesses who were there in 1980 finally break their silence. A county sheriff who watched them load bodies onto helicopters. A helicopter pilot who flew the remains to a facility in Nevada. A trauma surgeon who held the hand of a dying creature she called George. A Forest Service employee who saw a massive hand slip from beneath a tarp. Each one was threatened into silence for forty years. Each one is done carrying that weight.
The documentary gets picked up by a major streaming platform, and then gets killed two weeks before air when shadowy forces pressure the network into pulling it. Brian and Amanda fight back by releasing everything online, piece by piece, and the response is overwhelming. Millions of views. Hundreds of new witnesses stepping forward. The cover-up begins to crumble.But being sheriff has become impossible. The county commissioners question Brian's sanity. The hate mail piles up alongside letters from grateful witnesses across the country.
And on a rainy Tuesday night, Daniel suggests something that will change the course of Brian's life: a podcast. That conversation leads to the birth of Sasquatch Odyssey, and the beginning of a new chapter.
This is where the badge meets a bigger calling, and Brian has to decide which fight matters most.

SO EP:728 The Essential Guide To Bigfoot Feb 13, 2026

Show notes

In this episode, Brian welcomes friend of the show Ken Gerhard—renowned cryptozoologist, bestselling author, field researcher, television personality, public speaker, and now host of his own podcast.Ken shares how his childhood fascination with Bigfoot—sparked by firsthand experiences and a steady diet of classic monster movies—set him on a lifelong path into the world of cryptozoology. From Texas to Loch Ness and beyond, he reflects on decades of global expeditions, investigations, and firsthand encounters with some of the world’s most enduring cryptid legends.
The conversation dives deep into the intersection of science and folklore, exploring the cultural roots of mysterious creatures alongside the biological possibilities that keep researchers searching. Brian and Ken discuss the skepticism that surrounds the field, the importance of disciplined, objective inquiry, and how emerging tools like environmental DNA (eDNA) and artificial intelligence are reshaping modern Bigfoot research.
Ken also weighs in on the ultimate question: What would actually happen if Sasquatch were proven real? From conservation concerns to media frenzy and scientific upheaval, the implications could be far-reaching.T
he episode wraps with Ken discussing his latest projects, including his new podcast Cryptid Legacy, recent books, speaking appearances, and an upcoming guided expedition to search for the legendary Loch Ness Monster.

SO EP:727 Sasquatch Recon Feb 11, 2026

Show notes

The guys from Sasquatch Recon are back.
And this time, they’re taking us deep into the shadowy lowlands of South Carolina and the mysterious foothills of North Carolina—where the line between wildlife and the unexplained gets very blurry.In this episode, the team recounts a tense and unsettling expedition through South Carolina’s swamp country, where a single discovery snowballed into something far more disturbing. A strange footprint. Eerie, unidentifiable vocalizations echoing through the darkness.
Moments that made it clear they weren’t alone—and whatever was out there didn’t want to be seen.The story then shifts to Rutherford County, North Carolina, a well-known hotspot for high strangeness. From repeated wood knocks and fresh footprints to unexplained sightings in the field, the encounters raise serious questions about what’s really moving through these forests.
Beyond the investigations themselves, the hosts open up about their personal paths into Bigfoot research, the methods they use in the field, and how their experiences increasingly intersect with paranormal phenomena. What starts as cryptid research quickly becomes something deeper—and far more unsettling.

SO EP:726 Bigfoot Beach Combing Feb 08, 2026

Show notes

Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube channel is back.
If you want more of Fred’s incredible Alaskan encounters and deep-dive storytelling, be sure to click the link in the show notes and subscribe to his YouTube channel—you won’t regret it.In this episode, Fred returns to share two chilling and unforgettable accounts from the Alaskan wilderness—stories that left seasoned outdoorsmen questioning everything they thought they knew.
The first encounter comes from Todd and Alicia, a couple who spent over 30 years beachcombing across remote stretches of Alaska. What began as a familiar and peaceful trip quickly turned unsettling when they heard unexplained noises echoing through the woods—and came face-to-face with a mysterious, man-like figure that should not have been there.
The second story follows Chad and Darcy, former fishing guides with extensive experience in the Alaskan backcountry. While camping near Roaring Bear Lake, their night was shattered by a haunting, blood-curdling scream—followed by the appearance of a large, dark figure watching from the shadows. What happened next would permanently change how they viewed the wilderness—and their willingness to return to it.

SO EP:725 Let's Talk Bigfoot Feb 06, 2026

Show notes

This episode is a little different than usual—less about a specific encounter and more about an honest, thoughtful conversation. Brian welcomes Luke from Canada, who reached out not to share a dramatic story, but simply to sit down and talk about Sasquatch, research, and where the subject is headed. What followed was an open, candid exchange that reflects what happens when two curious minds meet without an agenda beyond understanding.
In this conversation, Brian and guest Luke, a seasoned hunter and dedicated Sasquatch researcher from Alberta, Canada, dive into the serious side of Bigfoot research. Luke talks about his evolution from a casual observer to someone deeply invested in field documentation, stressing the importance of ruling out ordinary explanations and looking for patterns and consistency rather than chasing sensational moments.
Brian opens up about the balancing act of being a content creator in the Sasquatch world—trying to entertain while staying grounded in responsible research—and the skepticism and ridicule that often come with that territory. Together, they explore how modern tools like drones and AI are changing the research landscape, as well as how documentaries and media portrayals shape public perception of the subject.
The conversation ultimately circles back to the need for honesty, open-mindedness, and intellectual humility within the research community.
Rather than trying to convince anyone, Brian and Luke encourage listeners to think critically, stay curious, and if they choose to explore the woods, to do so responsibly and with respect for both nature and the mystery itself.

SO EP:724 Bigfoot Killed My Dog! Feb 04, 2026

Show notes

In this episode, Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube channel returns with one of the most difficult encounters he’s ever shared. The story centers on Don, a lifelong Alaskan who chose a solitary life deep in the wilderness, far from roads, towns, and modern comforts. For years, Don lived in relative peace on his homestead, building a life rooted in self-reliance and a deep respect for the land. That peace begins to unravel when Don starts experiencing encounters with large, unknown beings in the area around his property.
Through a series of emotional phone calls with Fred, Don recounts how the activity escalated, bringing fear and uncertainty into a place that once felt safe. The situation takes a devastating turn when his dog, Rebel, is violently injured, forcing Don to confront the reality that he may no longer be able to protect himself or the life he built. As the encounters intensify and the sense of being watched and threatened becomes impossible to ignore, Don is faced with an unthinkable choice. In the end, survival outweighs solitude, and he makes the heartbreaking decision to abandon the homestead he loved and leave Alaska altogether, returning to Illinois.
This episode is a sobering reminder of how thin the line can be between living in harmony with nature and being completely at its mercy. It’s a powerful, emotional account of loss, resilience, and the cost of choosing a life at the edge of the wild.

SO EP:723 Bigfoot In A Bear Trap Feb 01, 2026

Show notes

In the spring of 1979, a quiet cattle farmer in the Appalachian foothills of eastern Tennessee followed a strange sound into the timber beyond his fence line. What he found in a ravine that morning would change the course of his family's life for the next four decades and beyond. A young creature was caught in an illegal bear trap. Hurt. Terrified. Looking up at him with eyes that didn't belong to any animal he'd ever encountered.
The farmer made a choice. He knelt down and set it free. No cameras. No witnesses. Just a simple act of kindness from a man who believed you help what's hurting, no matter what it is.
What happened next is one of the most remarkable long-term sasquatch encounter accounts we've ever received on this show. The creature came back. Then others appeared. And when the farmer's young grandson arrived for his first summer on the property, a friendship began between the boy and that young sasquatch that would span decades.
The man now in his fifties who grew up alongside these creatures on his grandparents' farm. He watched them. They watched him. Trust was built in inches over years. And what started with one grandfather's mercy in a wooded ravine eventually came full circle in a way that none of us saw coming. This is a story about patience, trust, and the kind of quiet coexistence that most people would say is impossible. Thomas Pritchard says otherwise. And after you hear what he has to say, you might just agree with him.

SO EP:722 Bigfoot Wasn’t the Scariest Thing Out There Jan 30, 2026

Show notes

In this episode, Brian welcomes John from Indiana for a gripping conversation that dives headfirst into the strange, unsettling, and deeply fascinating edges of the paranormal. John shares his journey from lifelong skeptic to reluctant believer, a transformation sparked by a ghost hunt at the Randolph County Infirmary that challenged everything he thought he knew. From there, the experiences only escalate.
He recounts chilling encounters in Ohio’s Tar Hollow State Park, where unexplained stenches, heavy movements, and unnatural sounds hinted at something far from ordinary—possibly even Bigfoot itself.The conversation takes a darker turn as John describes a terrifying late-night drive that brought him face-to-face with a gray, humanoid figure crossing the road, an encounter eerily reminiscent of what many refer to as a “pale crawler.”
Together, Brian and John explore possible explanations for these phenomena, weaving in theories involving ancient Native American mounds, burial sites, and the idea that certain locations may act as catalysts for high strangeness. John also introduces his podcast, Myths, Monsters, and the Unexplained, where he continues to investigate cryptids, folklore, and firsthand encounters that refuse to fit neatly into our understanding of reality.
This episode blurs the line between skepticism and belief and asks the question: what happens when the unexplained starts following you home?

SO EP:721 Bigfoot Country: Part Three Jan 29, 2026

Show notes

After the midnight visit from the men in black, Brian is left with a choice—back down, or push forward and risk everything. There’s no middle ground anymore. Daniel, uneasy but resolute, agrees to stand with him no matter what comes next. Every document is copied. Multiple backups are created and hidden in separate locations. If the evidence disappears, the truth won’t disappear with it. As the pressure mounts, Zach makes contact with an underground network of researchers who have been operating in the shadows for decades—people with their own stories of intimidation, silencing, and government interference. They know the rules of this world. They know how to survive it.
Then an opportunity arrives they never anticipated. Documentary filmmaker Amanda steps forward, determined to tell the story. She’s meticulous, credible, and unafraid of the implications. Once she’s in, there’s no turning back. The crew arrives in November. Interviews begin. Physical evidence is examined and verified by independent experts. But it quickly becomes clear they’re not alone. A break-in at the rental house leaves one thing missing—documents. Nothing else is disturbed. Days later, a tracking device is discovered beneath a crew member’s car.
The message is unmistakable: we see you, and we can reach you whenever we want.They keep filming anyway. Two weeks before Christmas, the phone rings. The same calm, practiced voice from that first encounter delivers a final warning. But this time, something slips—something unintended.
“The creatures are just one piece of a much larger puzzle. ”Brian refuses to back down. On the other end of the line, the voice sounds almost regretful.
“Then I’m sorry for what’s going to happen. ”As tensions rise, Zach uncovers the existence of Project Threshold—a classified Department of Defense operation launched in 1962. The revelation is staggering. The government hasn’t merely covered up the existence of these creatures. They’ve been managing them. Containing them. Controlling them. For decades—possibly since the 1940s. And buried even deeper is something else. Something far more dangerous. Something they fear more than the creatures themselves.
Then, just before dawn, there’s a knock at the door. No one is there. Only a manila envelope resting on the doormat, stamped with a single word: TRUTH. Inside is a file marked Project Vulcan. Dated May 18, 1980—the day Mount St. Helens erupted.In the chaos following the eruption, military recovery teams entered the blast zone. What they retrieved was never meant to be known: seventeen dead specimens. Three critically injured. One survivor. The photographs are impossible to deny. A massive, seven-foot-tall creature lies strapped to a stretcher, its body scorched, its hair burned away, surrounded by men in hazmat suits. The conclusion is unavoidable. The United States government didn’t just know these beings existed.
They’ve been studying them—for over forty years. Next episode: The truth comes out—and the consequences begin.

SP EP:720 Bigfoot Country: Part Two Jan 28, 2026

Show notes

The years that followed Brian's childhood encounter in Lyerly weren't easy, but they were transformative. His mother beat cancer, earned her degree, and rebuilt their lives piece by piece. Brian found his footing too—working his way up from fast food to restaurant management, discovering he had a gift for handling people and solving problems.But something else was happening beneath the surface.
In rural Georgia during the early nineties, Brian came to terms with a truth he'd been running from—he was gay. A relationship with a coworker named Marcus brought clarity, but also consequences. Friends disappeared. Family members stopped calling. The people who stayed proved who really mattered. A career in juvenile corrections followed—seven years working with teenagers society had written off. Then came the badge he'd always wanted, a posting in the remote mountain town of Suches Georgia, and a chance meeting with a sheriff's deputy named Daniel that would change everything. Together, they bought forty acres in the North Carolina mountains backing up to the Pisgah National Forest.
And almost immediately, the strangeness began. Howls in the night. Rocks appearing in impossible places. Lights with no source. Something was out there, watching their new home. Brian's unexpected run for Caldwell County Sheriff opened doors he never anticipated—including a partnership with a forest ranger named Zach who'd been quietly documenting the truth for years. Dozens of people had vanished in the Pisgah. The evidence pointed to something the government was desperate to hide. Then a college student named Austin Mercer disappeared, and the trail camera footage he left behind changed everything.
Now Brian faces an impossible choice. Men in black suits have delivered a clear message—back off or lose everything. But walking away means more people die in the darkness of those ancient woods.
Part Two of Bigfoot Country is the story of a man finding his identity, his purpose, and his courage—and discovering that sometimes the monsters in the forest are easier to face than the ones who want to keep them secret.
