In Episode 627: Decoding Bigfoot, we talk with researcher Matt Pruitt, focusing on his book "The Phenomenal Sasquatch: Seeking the Natural Origins of a Cultural Icon." Pruitt offers a fascinating blend of scientific investigation and cultural understanding in his work, analyzing the intersection of fact and folklore surrounding Sasquatch. He then recounts his dedicated efforts in collecting detailed reports about a red-haired Sasquatch, tracing its migration, and compiling eyewitness testimonies. The discussion expands to cover various aspects of bigfoot research, including their physical traits, historical evidence, and personal encounters. Pruitt's insights from both his field research and his book provide a rich, multi-dimensional view of the Sasquatch phenomenon.
