Please Explain (The Leonard Lopate Show)

Bigfoot and Nessie and Yetis... Oh My!


Listen Later

There's a whole world of magical creatures out there, and on today's Please Explain we're unraveling the truth behind cryptozoology, which may or may not be a pseudoscience. Loren Coleman, one of the world’s leading cryptozoologists, an honorary member of the British Columbia Scientific Cryptozoology Club and director of the International Cryptology Museum, joins us to discuss creatures like Bigfoot and the Loch Ness Monster. Joe Gisondi, a professor of journalism at Eastern Illinois University and the author of Monster Trek: The Obsessive Search for Bigfoot, also weighs in on the discussion.
