He Put a Six-Figure Budget on Finding Bigfoot | Ep. 84

What if Bigfoot isn’t just a blurry VHS fever dream… but a real, flesh-and-bone creature that’s just smarter than us?In this episode, I sit down with Gary Volkmann, a man who didn’t just talk about finding Bigfoot — he funded it. Six figures. A full film crew. And a world-renowned PhD anthropologist, Dr. Jeff Meldrum, as his right-hand man.We get into:Why a Thanksgiving dinner argument launched a full-blown Sasquatch huntAncient apes, human evolution, and why Bigfoot might be closer to us than we’re comfortable admittingTerrifying field encounters: bacon-scented sightings, rifled backpacks, unscrewed peanut butter jars, and a 16.5-inch footprint next to a tentWhy Bigfoot might be the most intelligent great ape on the planetNative American lore, totem poles, ancient cave art, and why this story shows up everywhere… across cultures, continents, and centuriesAnd why capturing Bigfoot on film might be harder than filming a black bear crossing a logging road Hosted on Acast.
