Fireside Chats: A New World Explorer with Cole Herrold

This week, we have a very special treat. After two years of attempts to line our schedules up, we finally managed to get today’s guest to sit down for an hour to talk. Cole Herrold is the brilliant mind behind the New World Explorers Society blog and a veritable human encyclopedia of Fortean knowledge. I had an amazing time chatting with him about everything from the Veggie Man and lake monsters to ghost animals and gnome encounters. Please go and support him in everything that he does. Enjoy! Campfire: Tales of the Strange and Unsettling is created for adult audiences only. The content and discussion in this show will necessarily engage with various accounts that include violence, anxiety, fear, and occasional body horror. Much of it will be emotionally and intellectually challenging to engage with. We will flag especially graphic or intense content so as to never put you in an uninformed or unprepared position. We will do our best to make this a space where we can engage bravely, empathetically, and thoughtfully with difficult content every week.  This week’s episode includes the following sensitive content: None Check it out!  Guest Website:https://newworldexplorerssociety.blogspot.com/ Guest Socials  Instagram:https://www.instagram.com/coleherroldresearcher/ Facebook:https://www.facebook.com/groups/682999575749376 Support Us on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/campfiretalesofthestrangeandunsettling Satisfy All of Your Merch Needs:https://www.teepublic.com/stores/campfire-tales-of-the-strange-and-unsettling?ref_id=25702 Join the conversation on social media atwww.campfirepodcastnetwork.com  Discord: https://discord.gg/43CPN3rz Instagram:instagram.com/campfire.tales.podcast GoodPods:https://goodpods.app.link/T0qvGnXnplb Twitter:www.twitter.com/campfiretotsau  Facebook:www.facebook.com/campfire.tales.podcast Visit Our Linktree for Any and All Campfire Info: https://linktr.ee/Campfirepodcast Special Thanks: Gregg Martin for music contributions!
