A Live Podcast Recording:

SpectreVision Radio Presents: BIGFOOT LIVES! at The 418 Project

He has had many names through time and across cultures: Mawas, Skookum, Grassman, Wood Booger, Skunk Ape, Yowie, Yeti, Sasquatch… BIGFOOT.

Is he an undiscovered hominid hiding in our forests? An ethereal being from another dimension? A figment of the collective imagination? Whatever the answer, reports of encounters with the wild man of North America stretch from the 1800s to today, with “flaps” occurring in states ranging from Pennsylvania to Washington, Florida, and Ohio. But nowhere is this mysterious being more prevalent than in the redwoods of Northern California.

On October 24, SpectreVision Radio’s Daniel Noah will stomp a long and winding forest road to examine the wide swatch of beliefs in, perspectives on, and evidence of this enigmatic creature, featuring a formidable lineup of Bigfoot researchers, documenters and experiencers including Bryce Johnson (Expedition Bigfoot), Ron Morehead (author of Voices in the Wilderness and purveyor of the famous Sierra Sounds recording), Joshua Cutchin and Timothy Renner (Where The Footprints End), professor David Mitchell, M.S., PhD (author of Sasquatch in the Psyche and Assistant Director, Integral Noetic Sciences Program at the California Institute for Human Science), Brett and Jill Eichenberger (A Flash of Beauty: Bigfoot Revealed), and surprise guests.

Bring your Plaster of Paris.
