Dr. Jeff Meldrum (1958–2025) was one of the world’s leading experts on Sasquatch, footprints, and human evolution. As a professor of anatomy and anthropology, he brought scientific rigor to a mystery often dismissed by mainstream science — the search for Bigfoot.
In this exclusive conversation, Dr. Meldrum discusses the evidence for Sasquatch, including footprint casts, the Patterson-Gimlin film, and the mysterious Sierra Sounds. He explains how the mid-tarsal break in the foot could separate Sasquatch from humans, why bones may never be found, and how drones, DNA, and even AI could change the future of Bigfoot research.
This was one of Dr. Meldrum’s final recorded interviews before his passing on September 11, 2025. His legacy as “the Sasquatch scientist” continues to inspire researchers and believers around the world.
Was Bigfoot simply myth and folklore, or is there enough evidence to suggest something real is still walking the forests of North America?
Join Justin as he honors Dr. Meldrum’s work, reflects on how this conversation changed his own perspective, and pays tribute to a man who followed the evidence wherever it led.
