Episode 12

2009-08-01T15:15:00.002-05:00

Episode 12 will (hopefully) be recorded on Sunday 2nd August 2009.

The main topic of conversation will be the Michigan Recording Project - their website can be found at http://mivocals.moonfruit.com/

We will try and avoid the subject of the PGF, but I can't promise it!

Episode 11

2009-05-18T06:31:00.007-05:00

Bigfoot Show 11 was recorded on Sunday 17th May 2009.

Brian, Scott and Paul were joined by Jerry Riedel, who was fresh from the Yakima Bigfoot Roundup.

The controversy over excluding Scott was discussed, as was Bill Munns' presentation and report, the new 'thermal' imaging video, which appears to be infra-red video, not 'thermal', and believe it or not, a discussion of the Patterson-Gimlin Film took place! Who would have predicted that?

I'll post a link here as soon as Brian uploads the file. It should shortly be available via iTunes

Episode 10 - Hey you kids! Get off my lawn!

2009-04-30T08:08:00.005-05:00

The usual suspects of Brian, Scott and Paul discuss...

Which classic bigfoot story stinks the most?
What's wrong with MonsterQuest?
Where have the BFRO gone wrong?
Can Scott hold his water for 90 minutes!?

Episode 9 - The Misplaced Episode

2009-04-30T07:54:00.006-05:00

This show was recorded back in November 2008 and "discovered" a month later.

With the cannabis harvest over, Scott Herriot returned to The Bigfoot Show, so we naturally talked about his hiking on the Pacific Crest Trail, and pretty much spent the rest of the show getting Scott up-to-speed on what he had missed whilst hiking. Scott once again proved that like the Titanic, he really can't hold water very well!

Scott mentioned 'The Long Walk: The True Story of a Trek to Freedom' by Slavomir Rawicz

Scott's website is www.walkpct.com where you can buy copies of his terrific documentaries and keep him in hiking socks.

Episode 8 - Kathy Strain

2009-04-30T07:33:00.006-05:00

Recorded 24th August 2008.

This was a busy day for Brian and Paul - not content with talking big-ass birds with Verne Langdon, they sat down to talk to Kathy Strain (again) about her new book 'Giants, Cannibals & Monsters: Bigfoot in Native Culture' in an attempt to cover everything we talked about in the missing Episode 6.

We also discussed the Georgia body hoax, and the passing of our dear friend Tim 'Fishbone' Cullen.

Episode 7 - Verne Langdon and his Big-ass Bird

2009-04-30T07:14:00.008-05:00

Recorded 24th August 2008.

Brian and Paul talk to the irrepressible Verne Langdon who got up at 5am this Sunday morning to talk about his involvement with and memories of the Minnesota Ice-Man.

Also discussed: Little Irvy, gorilla costumes, Planet of the Apes, the 'spectacular' Star Wars Holiday Special and a lot of big-assed birds

Episode 6 - The Best Show Ever!

2009-04-30T07:03:00.005-05:00

Episode 6 was a terrific show, recorded in August 2008.

With Scott out cultivating his cannabis plants somewhere on the Pacific Crest Trail, Brian and Paul spoke to Kathy Strain about her new book 'Giants, Cannibals & Monsters: Bigfoot in Native Culture' for about three hours, it was funny, informative, spontaneous, and altogether the best show we have ever done.

Five minutes after we finished recording enough for two shows, Brian discovered that his Apple Mac had only recorded his side of the conversation, so we're afraid this show was lost to the great recycle bin in the sky. However, we rectified the situation by talking to Kathy again a week or so later (Episode 8).

Episode 5 - Bigfoot Recession

2008-06-01T21:46:00.010-05:00

We're baaa-ck!

It's the reunion show! Miss us!?

On this scintillating BFS, Scott, Paul, and Brian chew on the following:

MK Davis and the sasquatch massacre (MK's Show, BFF Discussion, Cryptomundo article)
Remote Amazonian tribes (pictures, analysis)
UPDATE: The highest resolution images of the tribe I've yet found
Javan hippos and their mistreatment of trailcams
Bushnell's million dollar bigfoot challenge
Trailcam blobsquatch photos (like this one: 1, 2)
Tiger-riding monkeys and how they'll catch a bigfoot

P.S. At one point in this podcast, Brian says "pileated." When you hear that, please substitute it with the words "Ivory Billed." Thank you.

Our New Logo

2008-03-21T08:08:00.002-05:00

Thanks to Bigfoot Forums member Reverend Strone for our awesome new cover art!

Now, what to call that hairy dude? We're asking BFS listeners to help name him! Add your suggestion as a comment. The winner gets...our undying thanks and a mention on the show. Sorry, we blew the prize budget on Pop-Tarts and orange soda.

Episode 4 - You should have gone before we left

2008-03-09T10:30:00.004-05:00

Episode 4 has emerged all pipping hot and tasty from the BFS Easy Bake oven for your aural enjoyment. It's available on iTunes or can be downloaded directly. Joining Brian, Scott, and Matthew on the show, direct from the Mother Country, is Paul Vella, AIBR board member and Bigfoot Forums chief administrator.

Topics covered include:

Bigfoot Show #3
Daniel Perez' purported photos of bigfoot tracks
The Lizard Man on CNN
The relative value of YouTube "bigfoot" videos (like this one, that one, or this other one)
The care and feeding of the Bigfoot Forums
The private lives of bigfooters
Killer donkeys

And, in spite of my best efforts, a little conversation about the Patterson-Gimlin film slipped in. Blame Scott.

P.S. If you get the BFS through iTunes, PLEASE rate and/or review the show. Even if you don't like it. Seriously.

Episode 3 - Owen Caddy

2008-02-19T06:45:00.006-06:00

Episode 3 is now available on iTunes. It can also be downloaded directly.

Our interview with Owen Caddy covered the work he's done enhancing the Patterson-Gimlin film, his thoughts on dermal ridge casting artifacts, his theories regarding sasquatch movement across long distances, and negatively habituated chimpanzees and possible parallels with bigfoot behavior.

Owen Caddy on show number three

2008-02-15T06:26:00.002-06:00

We'll be recording our third show this Sunday and this time we have an honest to god guest! Owen Caddy will be joining us to talk about a variety of subjects, including his experience studying chimps and gorillas in Uganda and his work as a scientific illustrator and how that's influenced his opinion of the Patterson-Gimlin Film.

Have a question for Owen? Post it here!

Now playing on Odeo

2008-02-11T16:53:00.000-06:00

The BFS is now available on Odeo. We've also added an Odeo player to our site for those who choose not to download the file to your computer.

New Producer

2008-02-11T11:31:00.001-06:00

I'm happy to announce the addition of Matthew Gruits to the BFS cult. Matthew will be our producer helping to arrange guests, schedule shows, and in general keeping us focused and in line. Welcome Matt!

Episode 2

2008-02-11T11:26:00.001-06:00

Episode 2 is now available on iTunes or as a diresct download here (MP3, 53 MB). On this episode, I'm joined by Scott Herriot and Craig Woolheater. We discuss the PGF (again), disrespect in the media, Wisconsin werewolves (!), and a bunch of other stuff. Enjoy!

Gloria's kid talks to Scott

2008-01-27T14:52:00.000-06:00

Recently, NASA snapped a blobsquatch on Mars and that got Anderson Cooper, diminutive heir to the Gloria Vanderbilt denim fortune and heartthrob anchor of CNN's Anderson Cooper 360, cracking wise about how it looked like famous frame 352 from the PGF (or any other image of an upright bipedal figure, but I digress). Erica Hill, journalist hottie and rumored jilted paramour of our very own Scott Herriot, then mentioned she had a "friend" (wink wink) who, if you can believe this, actually believes in bigfoot! No kidding.

So anywho, the next day they brought Scott onto the show for your typical mainstream media thoughtful Q & A on the topic (which means, they belitted his point of view and spoke to him in the kind yet patronizing way one usually uses with a slow 12 year old). You can watch the mayhem here. And no, he never mentions The Bigfoot Show. Thanks for the love, Scott.

Note, the piece is only 3:49 seconds long, but that doesn't mean Cooper couldn't take up 1:50 showing stupid-ass photos that mocked Scott before he could even get his first word out. Hopefully, CNN will have Scott produce a fairer piece on the subject (but I ain't holding my breath).

Recording date set for episode two

2008-01-14T07:07:00.000-06:00

We're still trying to line up a guest, but Scott and I will be recording episode two on January 27 (assuming a new national sport isn't invented and in play-offs between now and then). We're looking forward to having Craig Woolheater join us for his BFS debut.

Look for BFS 002 early in the week of 1/28.
