Rantings of the Fatman

Rock Apes of Vietnam and American Bigfoot


Listen Later

In this special Labor Day Weekend show we work in some of the regular segments and then for today's main topic I get to kill three birds with one stone, hopefully. I address some Listener Mail and I also have a special Labor Day Segment.


They always say, "Never say never," and in this case it seems as though I have relented and will do a show regarding Cryptids, aka BIgfoot  and the very similar "Rock Apes of Vietnam." I always said I'd never do a Bigfoot show simply because there are just too many of them out there and I prefer to leave that to the people who devote their entire podcast to the fortean and other areas of the paranormal. But alas, I am nothing if not one to please my listeners who write in with a special request. So as always, Listener Mail takes precedence.


If you want to hear a GREAT podcast centered on Bigfoot and other strange and paranormal topics I HIGHLY recommend Expanded Perspectives with Cam & Kyle (www.expandedperspectives.com) also available on ANY podcast platform.


And after all of that, we close out the show with yet another amazing Bonus Story ala the Marvel Movies Bonus Scene.
