  • Chasing the Elusive Pennsylvania Bigfoot
    Episode 38: Timothy discusses the recently published book Chasing the Elusive Pennsylvania Bigfoot with Brian Seech. While Brian did not write the book, he has worked closely with the author, Paul G. Johnson, for many years. We cover some of the ideas and cases from the book including a few of the stranger aspects of Pennsylvania bigfoot sightings: UFOs, disappearing bigfoot creatures, and more – and the idea that some of this “spooky” activity may be explained by quantum physics. Brian also talks about some of his research with the Center for Cryptozoological Studies.
