Everyone's favorite hazelnut cocoa spread may have solved a cryptoozological mystery, and we've got the evidence! In this episode, we investigate the tastiest Bigfoot trap ever, uncover a Hollywood yeti smuggling ring, and hear the true tale of a trick-or-treating Sasquatch. Plus, the gang visits Cliff Barackman's North American Bigfoot Center, we recount our scariest Sasquatch encounter in the hills of West Virginia, and Greg has a snack attack.
