Shiftheads - Is Bigfoot Real? The Science Might Surprise You


Listen Later

Think Bigfoot is pure fantasy? Think again. Dr. Lee Kuhnle came to debunk Sasquatch—but ended up questioning his own assumptions. This episode unpacks why some academics are taking the Bigfoot question seriously, what fossil history says about upright apes, and why blurry photos aren’t the most interesting part of the story.

We dig into real scientific efforts to validate—or disprove—the existence of North America's most elusive creature. Dr. Kuhnle outlines the concept of a "holotype" and why we haven’t found one yet, plus how environmental science is used to track invisible populations. It’s a conversation about belief, evidence, and how mystery lives on in the scientific method.
