Great Show Tonight!!!

2009-07-29T22:30:00.001-07:00

We had an awesome show tonight, with guest Tom Yamarone. We discussed how Tom got involved in the Bigfoot phenomena and some of his views on things in the Bigfoot field. Erika asked excellent questions and Smiter called in to talk to Tom and shared some interesting incidences that have happened on his property in Texas. All in all, a great show.

Great Show Tonight!!!

2009-07-08T22:40:00.001-07:00

We had an excellent show tonight with our Guest Abe Del Rio from Minnesota. Despite some technical difficulties the show went very well. We had some interesting questions asked and Erika asked a few really good questions, plus a caller named Ticking Mind who called in and discussed some interesting topics with Abe. All in all, a very good show.

Great Show Last Night!

2009-05-28T22:01:00.000-07:00

We had a terrific show last night, with Erika, Henry, and I discussing the Yakima Bigfoot Round-Up we all attended a couple of weeks ago. (Just take a look at the pictures on this blog.) Tom Yamarone, one of the organizers of the event, joined us for the majority of the show. We had a terrific time on the show, and I will be bringing the show back, but how often I do not know as yet. Thanks for listening.

Back from the Yakima Bigfoot Round Up!

2009-05-19T21:48:00.000-07:00

I am back from the Yakima Bigfoot Round Up (well, I have been back since Sunday, actually) and I had a blast! It was the best day of my life in a very long time! I got to meet The Man- Bob Gimlin! I got to meet and hang out with all sorts of wonderful people! And they were all just like me! (Well, different shapes, sizes, and sexes, if that matters.) I got to meet for the first time some of those wonderful people who have helped me on my show, been supporters of my show, and who have been guests on my show: Henry May, Eric Altman. Billy Willard, John Cartright, Sherry (BigfootGal), and Bruce (Creature Seeker). I have never seen so may Bigfooters gathered in one spot before! There must have been 250 to 300 people present there! So much kindness and positive energy radiating outwardly from the people at this event! There were people there from Oregon, California, Washington, Canada, Australia, Tennessee, Utah, Wyoming, Virginia, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Texas, Mississippi, and even Russia! And the way they ended the Round Up with that video! Wow! The presentations were very interesting. Dr. Bindernagel used my drawing during his presentation, and even announced I was there! I had all the books I brought signed by the authors. I even sold two copies of my book, traded one, and gave one to Dr. Bindernagel and to Tom Yamarone for letting me come to this event. I have been reliving the event over and over again in my mind and in my dreams. I will be posting pictures of the event in this blog and in my Yahoo group for all those interested. I also want to thank Tom Yamarone, James "Bobo" Fay, and Paul Graves and the people who owned the ranch for putting on such a wonderful event!

I Will Be Attending the Bigfoot Round-Up in Yakima this Weekend

2009-05-11T22:54:00.000-07:00

I just wanted to let everyone know that I will be attending the Bigfoot Round-Up this weekend in Yakima, Washington. It will be my first Bigfoot conference ever and I am very excited about it. I will be getting to meet for the first time in person Henry May, Billy Willard, Eric Altman, Sean Forker, and John Cartwright. Finally, after over a year doing my various shows with these fine gentlemen I will be able to meet them in person. I will be bringing the show back as a special after the conference to give you all an after-event report of the Bigfoot Round Up. Thanks for listening.

Great show today!

2008-10-05T21:04:00.001-07:00

We had an excellent show today. We were originally scheduled to have Larry Battson on but he backed out at the last minute for a silly reason so I thankfully got Billy Willard of Sasquatch Watch Virginia as the guest. Billy related some very interesting stories, and Richie called from California to let us know the recent goings-on in his area. I reverted back to the questions I used to ask all my guests that I hadn't been using for awhile, and that lead to some interesting discussion. I will now start using my guest questions again. I was also the guest on Henry's show HBM's Crypto-Corner, and I had fun actually being the interviewee for once instead of the interviewer. I also have ten more copies of my book coming in the mail to anyone who wants them.

Good Show on Sunday

2008-09-23T15:12:00.000-07:00

We had a really good show on Sunday. Eric Altman, director of the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society, was the guest, and he told some really interesting stories. Richie from California also called in and told us what was going on in his area, and we also discussed the fact that Bigfoot may use railroad tracks and power lines as a means of travel. I donated a signed copy of the book that everyone wants to read but no one wants to buy to the East Coast Bigfoot Conference.

Show Format Has Changed

2008-09-15T20:26:00.000-07:00

The show will now be on every two weeks instead of weekly. This is due to show content and things going on in my personal life.

Good Show Last Sunday

2008-09-15T20:23:00.000-07:00

We had a good but not great show last Sunday. Henry and I shot the breeze about various Bigfoot topics and Rich from California called in to talk about some recent stuff that's been going on in his area, and I gave him an assignment concerning leaving fruit out for the creatures in his area. This Sunday we will have Eric Alman, of the Pennyslvania Bigfoot Society as the guest. Thanks for listening.

An Announcement

2008-09-15T20:22:00.000-07:00

Hello Everyone,
I have been doing alot of thinking and reevaluating of things going on in my life concerning the show. Unless things change with the show October 19 will be the last show. Whether this will be permanent or an indefinite hiatus I have not decided yet. Several factors have led me to this point. #1. The problem with guests. In the past month I have asked 20 different people to be guests on the show, and they were either A. unavailable, or so they tell me, B. they have already been on every other show and don't want to come onto The Bigfoot Mystery to talk about what they have already talked about on those other shows, or C. they have a problem with one of my co-hosts, a very silly reason in my opinion. I do not like to rehash old material on the show and have alot of dead air time. #2 I feel that The Bigfoot Mystery has covered every topic you could think of concerning Bigfoot, and I feel we are running out of things to talk about on the show. #3 There are over a dozen Bigfoot shows alone on blogtalk radio. I counted them. I feel I am now competing with them, and I don't like to compete with anyone. Perhaps The Bigfoot Mystery has run its course. #4 the listener base. I have noticed on all the other shows that the chatroom listeners has exceeded 50, when The Bigfoot Mystery has yet to reach 45. I have done everything in my power to promote the show, and despite what the ratings on blogtalk say I should have more listeners than I do now. Whether it's content of the show, its scheduled airtime, dislike of myself or my co-hosts, or some other factor I do not know. #5 Harrassing and insulting e-mails concerning the show. Every show host probably goes through this. I have had one listener contact me several times this week insulting myself and the show, and no matter what I tell them they keep doing it. It is getting tiresome. You can educate ignorance, but stupidity is forever. That particular listener falls into the latter in that phrase. #6 losing interest in doing the show. At first when I started the show I had a lot of fun doing it. Now I feel it is something I have to do, and when it's not fun anymore to do, then it is time to look at it differently. I'm not even asked to be a guest on any of the other shows, despite having my own encounter and publishing a book about it, but I do thank HenryMay for having me on as a guest in October on his show. I have never done anything to personally hurt anyone or said anything negative about anyone. If you are one of those who thinks I have, then I deeply apologize. I also think a big thank you needs to go out to Henry May. Henry has been there for the show no matter what and has busted his butt for The Bigfoot Mystery. I do think appreciation for everything Henry has done has been overlooked and he has been treated unjustly in some corners of the Bigfoot "community". If there was something I could have done to rectify that for him I would have done it a long time ago. If I can find someway to reward Henry I will do it. Thank you so much, Henry. Some who read this may not agree with its content, and that is fine. It is how I feel. If some out there feel I'm complaining or whining, then so be it. I don't feel I am, though. If there are those out there who'd like to see The Bigfoot Mystery continue, then I needyour help, whether it's suggestions, putting me in contact with potential guests, or even being a guest yourself on the show, then I welcome them all. Thank you for listening.
Darin, aka Thunderhawk

Future of the show

2008-09-03T13:45:00.000-07:00

I am not sure whether or not to continue on with the show. I seem to be running out of things to talk about. It seems like I've covered almost every subject concerning Bigfoot on the show. I feel I'm rehashing old material by talking about the same things over and over again. I have tried to get guests to be on the show who have not been on the show yet, but they're either unavailable, have already been on a few other shows and don't want to do anymore, or refuse to come on the show because they have an issue with one of my co-hosts, which is a very silly reason if you think about it. Perhaps this show has run its course. I'd like to think it hasn't. I will try to maintain some hope for this month and see what happens. Thanks for listening.

Good Show on Sunday

2008-09-02T16:35:00.000-07:00

We had a good show on Sunday for it being a call-in show. Eric Altman called the show to plug the 2008 East Coast Bigfoot Conference and to tell me he liked my book. Steve Summar (Ole Bub) called into the show and stayed on with us and we had some interesting discussions. Henry did book reviews on The Hoopa Project and on my book.

Thoughts on the whole Georgia body debacle

2008-08-17T23:12:00.000-07:00

I just thought I'd post some of my thoughts on the whole Georgia Bigfoot body debacle. I had such high hopes for this situation. I thought, " This is it! We've waited almost 50 years for this!" And then I saw the picture of the body in the freezer. Then I thought, "Oh, come on!" It didn't look like the Bigfoot I saw back in 1991. I was sitting on the fence with this whole thing but leaning towards it being all a hoax. After today my fears were confirmed. It is a hoax. Always has been. I don't believe there even was a body to begin with. This not only makes all the other, more legitimate researchers look like idiots in the public eye, but it may hurt Bigfoot research for a long while. We as researchers were already questionable in the public eye; now this comes out- and it's the talk of every news agency all across the country- and any credibility we had is probably gone now. I hope I'm wrong. But I will keep trudging on. Thanks for listening.

Sad News During The Show

2008-08-17T20:06:00.000-07:00

For those of you who listened to my show live today and in the archives, during the last 15 minutes of the show I got news that my roommate had passed away, and that's why I abruptly left the show for a bit. Please send your prayers to his family. Thank you.

Great show today!

2008-08-17T19:55:00.000-07:00

We had a terrific show today. Henry and I were joined by Janice, Bobbie Short, Bear, Steve Summar, and Randy from Canada. We talked about the whole Georgia fiasco and then we moved on to other Bigfoot related subjects. Steve said an excellent statement about the whole Georgia body thing. I wanted to not touch the subject but it was the talk of the Bigfoot community and there was really no way to avoid it. I tried not to spend too much time on it, as a few people left the chatroom because of it, but there was no real way to avoid it. Thanks for listening.

Great show today!

2008-08-10T19:22:00.000-07:00

We had a terrific show today, with Pat Rance, Jim (Dixie Banshee), and Coonbo. Rich from California even called the show and gave us a report on the Bigfoot Discovery Days he attended, where he got to meet Bob Gimlin! My book is now finalized (I think) and I hope more people will buy it.

Excellent show on Sunday!

2008-08-05T23:01:00.000-07:00

We had a great show on Sunday with Pat Rance, Jim (Dixie Banshee), and their friend Coonbo. They all shared some great stories. They will be returning this weekend. Thanks for listening.

Great show today!

2008-07-27T21:57:00.000-07:00

We had a terrific show today with Pat Rance and Jim (Dixie Banshee) as the guests. They will be returning next week for a part two of our talk with them.

My book is now available!

2008-07-27T21:53:00.000-07:00

As promised, my non fiction book, "Bigfoot and I: A Personal Journey into the World of Sasquatch", is now available on lulu.com. It's 94 pages and $14.26. A lot of my listeners have been waiting for this book and now it's available. Here's the link to the book:

Thanks for listening.
Darin

Great show today!

2008-07-20T20:17:00.000-07:00

We had a great show today. Marc Footery returned as the guest and told more of his amazing stories. Aside from a slight problem in the chat room that forced me to ban someone for the day the show went pretty well. I read part of my fiction book "Through the Eyes of the Skookum"on the show today. I got the impression that some people didn't like it. Someone even told me not to quit my day job. I happen to be really good at writing. But you know what? That doesn't matter to me because everyone's reading tastes are slightly different, and this book may not be for you. I'm writing it because I want to write it. What's the saying? Don't knock it until you've tried it? Anyway, next week we will have both Pat Rance and Jim (Dixie Banshee) on the show. Thanks for listening.

Great show on Sunday!

2008-07-15T23:26:00.000-07:00

We had a terrific show on Sunday. Both Randy from Canada and Rich from California were on, and the levels of discussion and conversation were probably unparalleled in my opinion from some of the stuff that's been on some other recent shows. I will have them on in the future. Thanks for listening.

Great show yesterday!

2008-07-07T22:17:00.000-07:00

Yesterday's show was a great show. Marc Footery was the guest and he told some excellent stories. I plan to have him back on in a couple of weekends. We had 99 live listeners, and so far 165 archive listeners. That's over 200 listeners total. The One-Year Anniversary show has had 404 archive listeners. That's a lot. It just shows that we are making a difference out there, opening people's minds to different ideas and different ways to research instead of just doing the "basics" over and over again, whatever the "basics" are. I owe it all to you, my co-hosts and listeners, for making it all possible. I have sent the book to the publisher. Now I just have to wait and see what happens.

Wonderful show today!!!!

2008-06-29T21:21:00.000-07:00

We had a wonderful One Year Anniversary show today. My dad called in, as did a surprise guest: Igor Bourtsev, from Russia! He talked about his research in Russia. It was a wonderful anniversary surprise. The show ran excellent aside from a crank caller that I dealt with quickly. I was hoping to get other long time listeners to call in to give their thoughts and reflections on the show but that's okay. Maybe they will for the 2nd Anniversary show. Thank you, Janice for arranging for Igor to call the show. I will be the guest on the No-Kill Zone Friday July 4th at 5:30 pm Eastern time. I'm looking forward to it. Thanks for listening.

Great show over the weekend

2008-06-24T23:51:00.000-07:00

We had an excellent show last Sunday, with Rich from California as the guest. He will return along with Randy from Canada on July 13, as elements of their stories are near identical, and these two have never met each other. This weekend will be the one year anniversary for the Bigfoot Mystery. Thanks for listening.

Activity in the Ravine tonight

2008-06-16T23:03:00.001-07:00

I had activity in the ravine tonight. And this time I wasn't alone in witnessing it. My girlfriend Tracey wanted to see the deck that over looks the ravine, so we walked down to to the deck. Ahead of us in the ravine we heard movement. Whatever was moving was big and moving on two feet. Tracey's two daughters were also with us. We listened to it move and Tracey saw some branches move ahead of us. I couldn't tell how far away. Probably 100 feet or so. We whistled several times and we got a response- from another part of the ravine. There were apparently two of them. Whatever was responding to us was hooting at us in a deep voice. Tracey said she had never heard anything like it before. I unfortunately did not have my digital camera or voice recorder. I was caught completely unaware. This whole incident lasted about 20 minutes. We plan on going down to the deck Wednesday night, to see if we can repeat what happened tonight. This time I will have my equipment near by.

Great show yesterday!

2008-06-16T22:58:00.000-07:00

We had a great show yesterday with returning guest Randy from Canada, who told more of his interesting stories. We also had a crank caller but he was dealt with in quick fashion. Henry May is now the second co-host of The Bigfoot Mystery. Henry is an asset to any show and I am honored to have him as a part of my team. I am planning something big for the year anniversary show coming up on June 29th.

Excellent show yesterday!

2008-06-10T00:13:00.000-07:00

We had an excellent show yesterday. A gentleman named Randy from Canada was our guest and he related all his experiences to us, which are continuing to this day in an area near his home in British Columbia. He is a newcomer to the Bigfoot field, having his first experience back in 2006. He said several key things, most notably the fact that a female Sasquatch he saw had a braid in her hair and a ponytail. This is key because in M.K. Davis' analysis of the 1967 film, he found that the creature in the film had a pony tail and braid in her hair. Randy doesn't even know who M.K. Davis even is and has never heard of the things M.K. found in the 1967 film. Here we have two different people who have never met or talked who are seeing the same things, one in a 40 year old film and one in Canada who saw the same thing on a female Sasquatch in the past two years. To me this is very significant. There may be something to M.K.'s findings. Hopefully more people will be more open-minded about it. I will try to get Randy back on the show next week.

Sad news- JC on the road indefinitely with the Biscardis; searching for new co-host

2008-06-01T23:19:00.000-07:00

I would like to inform everyone out there that JC Johnson of Four Corners Crypto will not be co-hosting with myself and Janice Carter for the time being as he is indefinitely on the road with the Biscardi team. I will miss him greatly. he helped make the show. I will be changing the show's banner soon and be searching for a replacement for JC. If anyone out there wishes to step in please feel free to contact me. Thanks for listening.

Good show today

2008-06-01T23:15:00.000-07:00

We had a good show today. Luke Gross returned for a second part of his interview. Henry May stepped in for Janice as Janice had something she had to take care of. I am thinking about making Luke a permanent part of the show. I am done writing Chapter 12 of my book and am currently working on Chapter 13. The book is almost done.

Good show today

2008-05-25T22:52:00.000-07:00

We had a good show today with Luke Gross as a guest. I felt we didn't have enough time so he will be the guest next week as well. Thomas Hughes (Smiter) also joined us on the show, and Janice gave us a quick rundown of the Ohio Bigfoot conference she attended. I apologize if I sounded like I was whining or something on the show today. I felt I had a legitimate complaint about the Bigfoot community and not feeling like a part of the Bigfoot brethren so to speak, since most of my listeners are out East. I would so much love to have had the fellowship and camaraderie everyone had at the Ohio conference but unfortunately that doesn't happen out here. Why I don't know. I may get fed up before too long and hold a conference myself- or throw in the towel on Bigfoot research all together. I just feel I may never meet any of you in person, and it saddens me to think that, but I'm a realist about such things. Thanks for listening.

A Complaint

2008-05-19T19:52:00.000-07:00

Okay, now it's time for a complaint. I feel left out because I'm all they way here in Oregon and all my listeners and listeners of the other shows are all in the Midwest, South, or East Coast and are all neighbors literally. From what I understand at the Ohio conference they all got to meet each other. That doesn't happen out West that I know of. I swear all the researchers out here are either unavailable all the time or have attitude problems. Only myself, Bobbie Short, and Karen Orum were from the west coast in the chatrooms of the shows.
Over the weekend I revisited the site of my 1991 encounter. Someone should have been with me at Mineral Lake over the weekend. We found circumstantial evidence on the spot of my 1991 encounter. Only my two best friends were with me, and they have no experience at this sort of thing. I contacted several researchers who were local and near me. I got no response or disinterest in going with me. Hell, I even tried the little names too. The ones that I knew of anyway. Someone with experience should have been with me to show me what to look for. I could have missed some good evidence because I wasn't sure what I was looking for. I am all by my lonesome out here. Well, I do thank all my listeners who listen to my show.

Good show today

2008-05-18T18:56:00.000-07:00

Well, we had a good show today despite having trouble starting the show due to Blogtalk technical problems. Janice and JC were absent so Thomas Hughes (Smiter) stepped in on the show with me and he did great. We may have upset a few people for some "tough guy" talk we were doing, but I felt we both voiced out opinions in a non-offensive manner. We are just passionate about what we do. I apologize to anyone who got offended by the talk we did. I told of my return to Mineral Lake after 17 years and Smiter told a few of his stories. Regina and Luke Gross called into the show as well. I will be posting the pics and video of Mineral Lake here on the blog. It will tell the story much more than I could with words. I watched "Keeping the Watch" by John Johnson and it was a real good documentary.

Great show today! New Co-Host! New Show Banner!

2008-05-11T18:19:00.000-07:00

We had an excellent show today. Thomas Hughes (Smiter) was the guest, and Dave Ortiz of Four Corners Crypto filled in for JC today as JC is on the road with Tom Biscardi. Janice Carter debuted as my new second co-host and she's wonderful. I even had Luke Gross of Texas call in to tell me he recorded the exact same sounds last night in a ravine in Texas that I recorded several weeks ago in the ravine behind my house here in Oregon. Hopefully Luke will send me a copy of the sounds he recorded so I can compare them to the ones I recorded. Very significant in my opinion. I also now have a publisher for my book. Idyll Arbor Publications, who under the Pine Winds Press imprint published Valley of the Skookum and the revised Bigfoot Casebook. I am so happy. My friend also made a new banner for the show that I have now posted to this page and my blogtalk page. Thomas had interesting stories and he plans to come back on the show soon. The show is starting to take off and it will only get better.

Good show last weekend

2008-05-07T21:55:00.001-07:00

We had a good show last weekend. For the first time in my life I got to talk to a full-blooded Native American and ask him questions about Bigfoot, a subject his people are very well versed in. Also an interesting development out where JC lives- a fresh sighting got reported to him right then and there on the show. Unfortunately due to bad weather I didn't get to go on my return trip to Mineral Lake. I am hoping to go next month.

Today's show

2008-04-27T17:55:00.000-07:00

I was nervous on my own show today. I always have trouble even today talking about my 1991 encounter. I felt that the show could have gone better if I wasn't so nervous. I always get nervous every time I tell my story, no matter to whom I tell it to. After 17 years it still affects me a great deal. I am hoping that my return trip to Mineral Lake this coming weekend will help me better deal with what I saw. In my opinion this wasn't one of my better shows, but I will let my listeners decide.

Great show tonight! Robert W. Morgan was the guest!

2008-04-20T23:36:00.000-07:00

We had a great show tonight! The legendary Robert W. Morgan was the guest. He actually volunteered to do it. He told some great stories and I felt honored that he complimented me and wants me to work with him. I will be making a return trip to the scene of my sighting at Mineral Lake, Washington State- 17 years later- on May 3rd and I will be doing a post-trip report on the show that weekend. My book is just about done. Next week I will be retelling my sighting story and JC will have some stuff for my listeners as well.

Great shows the last two weeks

2008-04-14T00:05:00.000-07:00

We have had great shows the last week and yesterday. Bart Nunnally and John Johnson were the guests last week, and Penny Houston was the guest yesterday. I had activity in the ravine last night and I actually got some possible screams on my digital recorder. Activity is picking up here and I'll talk about it later.

Great show tonight!

2008-03-30T19:10:00.000-07:00

We had a great show tonight, especially in the last part of the show. Bullet Maker (Doug Bilby) was the guest, but Randy Harrington (Driveroperator) couldn't join us unfortunately. Great stories and a great caller, who related a very convincing story of having touched a baby Bigfoot that he thought was a dead gorilla. I will have Randy on on a future show. I will also have the caller who touched the baby on a future show as well. I am halfway thru writing my book. JC also may have mentioned the show on some A&E documentary so the listener base may pick up as well. Once again I thank JC for being the co-host.

The last couple of shows have been great

2008-03-26T23:25:00.000-07:00

Sorry I haven't posted in the blog in awhile. I've been busy writing my book. The last couple of weeks we have had Linda Godfrey, Bullet Maker, Randy Harrington, and Tom Biscardi's son TJ on. They have all been really good shows. The show has gained a few more new listeners and it is still in the top 15 of the blogtalk paranormal shows. I just finished Nick Redfern's book "Memoirs of a Monster Hunter". It was really good. Future guests for the show may include Dr. John Bindernagel and Autumn Williams. I have my co-host JC to thank for a lot of what has been happening to the show. I hope he stays on awhile.

Great show last week

2008-03-09T14:13:00.001-07:00

We had a great show last week with Melissa Hovey. She had some wonderful insights on being a Bigfoot researcher. Some joker on Ebay is selling a Bigfoot expedition for $400,000. C'mon! He's an idiot. Tranquilizer gun and everything. You don't find Bigfoot; he finds you. Bigfoot will see this guy coming and take off. The guy will be charging someone 400 grand just to see some scenery. Some people.

Great show tonight! The show is in the top 15 of the Blogtalk paranormal shows!

2008-02-24T23:08:00.000-08:00

We had a great show tonight with Nick Redfern. He was a great guest and I will have him on again in the future. 62 live listeners! And the show is now in the top 15 of the paranormal shows on Blogtalk Radio! Wow! I never thought the show would go that far. I will have Melissa Hovey on next week, and I'm hoping JC can get me Tom Biscardi soon. This show will only get better. I have JC to thank for alot of it.

Great Show last week; I got to talk to Robert Morgan too!

2008-02-16T15:26:00.000-08:00

Last week we had a great show with Bullet Maker-Doug Bilby-despite some technical difficulties. He had interesting stories to tell. There were 126 live listeners last week- that's the most the show has ever had to date. My co-host JC Johnson helps make the show, and I thank him for that. He's going to try to get me Tom Biscardi for the show. On Thursday night I finally got to say hello to Robert W. Morgan- I had been waiting 20 years to say hello to him. I listened to his show and managed to get through and I was able to talk to him. He wants to meet me! Wow! He said he's going to come to The Dalles this summer (or next, I'm not sure which) and buy me a beer. He wants me to join the AARF so he can work with me one-on-one. He also said I sounded like I would fit in with the AARF. This is wonderful. I'm going to try ot get him on my show soon. Wow!!!

Another great show

2008-02-03T22:43:00.000-08:00

Well, we had another great show tonight. I thank JC for being my new co-host. I'm so happy the famous Melissa Hovey called into the show. Bullet Maker himself called in too, and the Incomprable Bill Green called in too. 52 live listeners. There probably would have been more live listeners if the Super Bowl wasn't on. Melissa Hovey said she'd be a guest on my show sometime soon, too. My shows just keep getting better.

Great show tonight

2008-01-27T19:20:00.000-08:00

I had a good show today. Wayne Ford from Georgia was my guest. I had 58 live listeners tonight! 58! Hopefully I will have more on the next show.

Great show tonight

2008-01-13T23:01:00.000-08:00

I had a great show tonight. It was a special 90-minute show with JC Johnson and Dave O from Four Corners Crypto. Indy was my guest co-host but his phone line cut him off but the show turned out good anyway. JC had so many stories to tell. I thoroughly enjoyed them as guests and have asked them to come back every month and they agreed to. I have posted two pics JC has sent me of a three-toed track attributed to the mysterious "dogman". These guys by far are some of my favorite guests and at one time I had 20 people in the chatroom. Hopefully my show will pick up now that I have several new listeners.

The show is back!

2007-12-26T07:31:00.000-08:00

I brought the show back after a lengthy hiatus. More for something to do than anything else. My return was pretty well-received. But I will only schedule shows when I have a guest for them. Luckily I got Indy from USBRA Radio as my guest on January 6. I will try to figure out something for this weekend, but if I can't find a guest then I won't schedule a show. I have removed the pic of the ravine that shows where my house is for safety reasons.

Today's Show

2007-11-11T17:10:00.000-08:00

In my opinion, I had a mediocre show. I revealed my true name due to an e-mail I got who said they weren't going to listen to my show because I was using Thunderhawk. My revealing was received very well, although I did make Eric Altman mad, and that was not my intent. I just don't want very many researchers involved in my ravine incidents. I have someone helping me that I trust. I don't think I'm going to schedule any more shows right now until I feel like doing it. I just feel bad for some reason. That's all.

Good show tonight.

2007-11-04T17:25:00.001-08:00

We had a good show tonight. I talked about the ravine and the goings-on on the property and how there are a series of ravines running from Mt. Hood and the Columbia River through right behind my house. My theory is that is how these creatures are travelling without being seen; they're using the ravines to keep from being seen. I will keep everyone posted.

Nearly had an encounter tonight

2007-10-28T20:23:00.000-07:00

I nearly had an encounter tonight. Something thudded against the house and I went to see what it was and I found out I was home alone. So I went outside and I smelled that smell again that I have been smelling every time these creatures get close to the property. So I immediately called Autumn and I took the phone outside with me and another rock or something hit the house. I went to the bottom of the stairs on the deck and about 50 feet away from me behind a big tree something with red eyes was staring back at me. It lasted for about two minutes- I was on the phone with Autumn the whole time- until a car headlight came down the road and the eyes went out. Then one of my roommates turned on the bathroom light in the small house that sits on the property where my roommate saw a Bigfoot looking in at her a few weeks ago and whatever it was moved through the bushes back down into the ravine. Wow. It was frightening and exciting at the same time.

Good shows today and last week

2007-10-28T17:29:00.000-07:00

Well, I had some good shows today and last week. Last week I had several members of NESRA (Northeastern Sasquatch Researchers Association) on and they gave a report on a recent expedition they had. Today Bob and I talked about how witnesses and researchers would be more credible in the eyes of the scientific community and the public in general. My switchboard cut out and I lost Bob when he was on a roll, but I carried on the best I could. Hopefully Blogtalk can fix these problems. I'm thinking about doing a second show on Tuesday nights. I'm not sure yet. I want everyone's opinions on doing a second show per week before I schedule anything. Thanks for listening.

Good show tonight; Bigfoot activity in ravine behind my house

2007-10-10T21:25:00.000-07:00

Well, we had a good show tonight despite Bob being unavailable due to a prior commitment. I did the show tonight due to the fact that I couldn't do my normal Sunday show due to technical difficulties which I have now fixed. I have Bigfoot activity going on around the property I'm living on now. Where I'm living has had a history of activity, some of it as recent as last year. Henry May, Billy Willard, and Bill Green joined me and we talked about this habitation situation. Screams have been heard in this ravine behind my house; last Monday (October 1st) one of my roommates saw the form of a Bigfoot looking in her bedroom window and she told me about it the next day. A footprint was found outside the window. It was faint and was affected by the weather but it measured 13 inches long and 7 inches wide. I tried to cast it but that didn't work. I did take pictures of it and the surrounding area. Screams and strange moans have been heard, and something was digging in out garbage can late at night last week. My cat, who's usually scared of nothing, cowers behind my bed at night and rarely goes outside, which is really unusual. I am keeping an incident journal of what's been going on here. I will publish what I have on my blog in the next few days or so.

Good show today despite technical difficulties

2007-09-30T22:44:00.000-07:00

We had a good show today with Chris Julian of the Maine Bigfoot group. Despite my technical difficulties we got through it. I have my own computer now and my internet connection will be better come next week so the show should be back on track. Also- I found out today that my show is being broadcast on satellite radio! And somehow the show was talked about here on one of the local TV stations in Oregon! Talk about exposure! Thank you all for hanging in there with me.

Today's show

2007-09-23T19:00:00.000-07:00

Today's show went really well. I was joined by Bob of course and by Steve Kulls and Billy Willard of the Squatch Detective blogtalk show. I will be the guest on their show on October 1.

Today's show

2007-09-16T15:29:00.000-07:00

Well, despite some technical difficulties and my guests going AWOL. the show went pretty good. Mike Killen of the Northeast Sasquatch Researchers Association joined us as we continued our discussion on the signs of Bigfoot.As I have to use a friend's computer, I will only be checking my e-mails every Sunday. Just though I'd let everyone know that. I don't have a new computer yet but I will get one next month.

Meet my new co-host, Bob!

2007-09-09T19:42:00.001-07:00

I'd like to welcome my new co-host, Bob from Massachusetts. He is a retired chief of police with 37 years law enforcement experience, a hunter and Bigfoot eyewitness. He will be helping me out on the show, and he's great. Just think of him as Ed McMahon to my Johnny Carson.

Great show today! Probably the best one yet!

2007-09-09T19:41:00.000-07:00

Well, today's show was in my opinion my best one to date. Steven Miller from Illinois was on with myself and my new co-host Bob and we were also joined by Billy Willard of Sasquatch Watch Virginia. We had a round table discussion on the stick structures that we will be continuing next week. An hour just wasn't enough time to talk about the subject. Last week Henry May- Squatchopedia himself- was my guest and that was a good show as well. Looking forward to next week!

Upcoming shows for October

2007-09-02T20:38:00.000-07:00

October will be a great month for guests for my show. On October 28 I will have Mike Killen of the Northeast Sasquatch Researchers Association fresh off the field from an expedition. I will also have Eric Altman, director of the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society tentatively on October 21. Should be pretty interesting shows.

Announcement: Bigfoot Mystery now a part of Squatch Media

2007-09-02T20:25:00.001-07:00

I have an announcement: my show The Bigfoot Mystery is now a part of Squatch Media. I am honored to be a part of it. Hence I have changed my blogtalk chatroom to the Squatch Media official chatroom, so I can have more of a connection to the Sasquatch Experience. I am very honored that my show was good enough to be a part of something like this. I thank Sean Forker, Henry May, and James Baker for this and I'll try not to let them down.

Great show this week and last week

2007-09-02T20:20:00.000-07:00

I had two great shows last week and this week. Last week my guest was Billy Willard of Sasquatch Watch Virginia and tonight I had on Henry May, one of the hosts of the Sasquatch Experience show, which comes on after mine. Both were great guests and I hope to have them on again in the future. Nothing about my contest yet, so I will keep it open until something happens with it.

Show contest; win Peter Byrne's book!

2007-08-22T22:22:00.000-07:00

Hello everyone,I have recently came to have a paperback copy of Peter Byrne's Bigfoot book, and I don't need the book as I already have it. My show will be having a contest, starting this Sunday. This contest will give everyone a chance to win this book. I will pay for the shipping for it. Here's the contest: everyone- live listeners as well as archive listeners- sends in their show ideas and who they'd like to see be the guest on my show. I will post the ideas and who sent them on my blog page and my blogtalk page, and everyone out there in internet and blogtalk land votes on which one they like the best. At the end of the time limit I will put on the voting, whomever's idea gets the most votes wins. Okay, here are the rules: the contest starts this Sunday on my show. You can either e-mail me your ideas or post them on my blog pages. THE PERSON POSTING AN IDEA HAS TO BE ABLE TO GET ME THAT PARTICULAR GUEST THEY WANT TO HEAR ON MY SHOW. You can even nominate yourself if you so desire. The submission deadline is September 2, which is when the voting will begin. The winner will be announced on the September 9th show. Example: if Joe Blow posts an idea to have say John Green on my show and his idea gets the most votes and he gets Mr. Green to be on my show, then Joe Blow wins the book. If his idea wins but he can't get Mr. Green on my show, he doesn't get the book. Another example: say Henry May nominates himself to be on my show and his idea gets the most votes and he appears on my show, then Henry wins the book. If more than one person has the same show idea, the FIRST one that I get will be the contender; the second one will count as a vote towards the same idea as the first. I have discussed this idea with several friends of mine and they say it sounds fair. I'm hpoing to get a little more audience participation, and just to do something a little fun on my show. I thought about having a trivia contest but so many people would win it outright, so I decided on the show idea thing. The contest starts this Sunday, but since you on my e-mail list are my main listeners you guys can have a special head start on this contest starting now. I will post any results Sunday night. I will also be calling in to the X-Zone show and ask Bob Heironimous a couple of questions. Don't worry;I'll be nice. Thanks for listening.Thunderhawk

Great show today!

2007-08-19T19:36:00.001-07:00

I had a great show today. Don Keating, of the Eastern Ohio Bigfoot Information Center was my guest. He was a great guest. I hope to have him on again on a future show. I did get to talk to Autumn Williams while I was in Eugene. She's doing great and I will be looking in to some reports from the Columbia River Gorge area for her. Looking forward to next week's show!

Show will have a one week hiatus

2007-08-05T22:32:00.000-07:00

My next show will be on Sunday, August 19 at 4pm pacific, and hopefully my guest will be Don Keating. I will be in Eugene this coming weekend. I could have broadcasted my show from Eugene, but I could'nt get the 4 pm pacific time slot I wanted. Besides I will be busy with my parents'. I hope to meet with Autumn Williams that weekend if I can get in contact with her this week. Thanks for listening.

Great show today!

2007-08-05T22:23:00.000-07:00

I had another great show today. It was better than last week's! Henry May and Bill Green both called in and we had a sort of round table discussion on all things Bigfoot. I'd love to do more shows like that. Not alot of activity in the chatroom but that's okay. I did have a few questions though from people in the chatroom. I also learned that my drawing has been used by Dr. John Bindernagel in his presentations. That's an honor. I will personally thank Dr. Bindernagel for that. I get more archive listeners than live listeners and I'm hoping that the archive listeners will want to tune into the live show. I even got to call in to Henry's show and ask his guests the murder-charges question I pose to all Bigfooters. I ask it to find out other people's opinions on that subject. Even though I received some very bad messages from people about my show, I will continue to do it as long as I can.

Drawing of the Bigfoot I saw

2007-08-04T23:06:00.000-07:00

By accident my girlfriend googled my name and I found the drawing I did of the Bigfoot I saw that night in June of 1991. I posted it on this page and I will post it on my blogtalk page and my myspace page. I had given the drawing to Ray Crowe and Peter Byrne years ago. I thought I'd never see it again. I am not an artist and I don't think the drawing is very good. It took me awhile to draw it a long time ago. I did my best to draw what I saw that night. As I only saw the outline of the creature, alot of the finer detail I had to guess on, but I did the best I could on it.

Great show today!

2007-07-29T21:29:00.000-07:00

I had the best show I've had so far on Blogtalk radio. I had fun on Henry May's show too. I can't wait till next week's show.

Hello all

2007-07-29T21:01:00.000-07:00

Welcome all to Thunderhawk's Bigfoot blog, where we can all communicate and share Bigfoot information and experiences!
