Sasquatch Odyssey

The years that followed Brian's childhood encounter in Lyerly weren't easy, but they were transformative. His mother beat cancer, earned her degree, and rebuilt their lives piece by piece. Brian found his footing too—working his way up from fast food to restaurant management, discovering he had a gift for handling people and solving problems.But something else was happening beneath the surface.

In rural Georgia during the early nineties, Brian came to terms with a truth he'd been running from—he was gay. A relationship with a coworker named Marcus brought clarity, but also consequences. Friends disappeared. Family members stopped calling. The people who stayed proved who really mattered. A career in juvenile corrections followed—seven years working with teenagers society had written off. Then came the badge he'd always wanted, a posting in the remote mountain town of Suches Georgia, and a chance meeting with a sheriff's deputy named Daniel that would change everything. Together, they bought forty acres in the North Carolina mountains backing up to the Pisgah National Forest.

And almost immediately, the strangeness began. Howls in the night. Rocks appearing in impossible places. Lights with no source. Something was out there, watching their new home. Brian's unexpected run for Caldwell County Sheriff opened doors he never anticipated—including a partnership with a forest ranger named Zach who'd been quietly documenting the truth for years. Dozens of people had vanished in the Pisgah. The evidence pointed to something the government was desperate to hide. Then a college student named Austin Mercer disappeared, and the trail camera footage he left behind changed everything.

Now Brian faces an impossible choice. Men in black suits have delivered a clear message—back off or lose everything. But walking away means more people die in the darkness of those ancient woods.

Part Two of Bigfoot Country is the story of a man finding his identity, his purpose, and his courage—and discovering that sometimes the monsters in the forest are easier to face than the ones who want to keep them secret.

Tonight Brian sits down with Jacob from Oregon expecting to talk about Bigfoot, but boy was he wrong. What begins as a straightforward conversation about Sasquatch quickly veers into far stranger territory, as Jacob reveals a series of encounters that stretch the limits of what most people consider possible. Jacob explains how his journey into the unexplained started with disturbing reports out of the Congo and eventually led him deep into the forests of Washington and Oregon. 

Along the way, he collected eyewitness testimonies and experienced events that pointed to something far beyond the traditional Sasquatch narrative. He recounts chilling descriptions of massive, reptilian, winged creatures seen in remote wilderness areas, including a shocking encounter that forces both host and listener to rethink what might still exist beyond the reach of accepted science. As the conversation unfolds, Jacob addresses the skepticism surrounding these sightings, exploring how such creatures could exist outside known classifications and why dismissing them outright may be premature. 

The discussion expands into the realm of high strangeness, touching on theories involving environmental anomalies, unexplained aerial phenomena, and the possibility of portals, while drawing intriguing parallels to other legendary encounters often reported around the world.

Throughout the episode, Jacob emphasizes the importance of approaching the unexplained with an open mind, careful investigation, and a willingness to follow the evidence wherever it leads—even when it challenges everything we think we know.

In this chilling episode, Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube channel returns to share a haunting account that unfolds deep within the isolated Alaskan wilderness, where land, legacy, and something unknown collide. The story centers on James Junior and his uncle Oscar, whose connection is strained by years of unresolved family tension tied to a remote piece of inherited property.

Once dismissed as nothing more than an unwanted reminder of the past, the land comes with unsettling warnings from their late mother—warnings that linger long after her passing.After years of neglect, Oscar decides to reclaim the property by building a small cabin in one of the most desolate regions imaginable. What begins as a practical decision quickly spirals into something far darker.
During an unexpected visit years later, Oscar experiences an overwhelming sense of being watched, followed by strange sounds, rolling fog, and the sudden appearance of a massive, unidentified figure looming near the cabin.

 The encounter leaves him shaken and searching for answers.Determined to confront whatever may be lurking on the land, Oscar and James Junior return in the dead of winter, armed and on edge. What they encounter instead defies explanation—deep, guttural growls echo through the frozen forest, and a rare white raven appears, a symbol regarded in many Indigenous cultures as an omen or spiritual messenger.

As tension mounts and the environment turns hostile, fear overtakes reason, forcing the men into a desperate retreat as piercing screams follow them through the fog. Fred breaks down the details of this encounter and explores whether the behaviors, warning signs, and environmental cues described in this story could help others avoid similar traumatic experiences in remote wilderness areas.
