In this episode, Brian sits down with John from Ohio, a lifelong Bigfoot enthusiast whose fascination began in childhood and never faded. Inspired by 1970s classics like The Six Million Dollar Man and vintage sci-fi books, John recalls his very first encounter at just nine years old — an experience that would ignite a lifelong passion for uncovering the truth behind the Bigfoot mystery.

John shares how cultural legends, local folklore, and popular media shaped his curiosity and how his fascination evolved into genuine field research. He takes us back to a thrilling 1987 sighting, describing every detail of that unforgettable moment and how it deepened his conviction that something extraordinary roams the forests of Ohio.

Beyond the encounters, John opens up about his work with Crow Town Squatchers, the Bigfoot vendor and support group he co-runs with his wife, Beth. Together, they’ve built a welcoming community of researchers, experiencers, and fans who share evidence, stories, and the unshakable belief that discovery is just around the corner.
