Cliff reveals a detailed Sasquatch handprint cast with a distinct thumb, one of the best he's ever poured.
The episode begins with Cliff and Bobo catching up on personal updates, including Cliff missing a track find at Bluff Creek. Cliff details his recent field excursions, where he found Sasquatch tracks and a handprint in multiple valleys, culminating in a successful plaster cast of a handprint with a clear thumb impression. They discuss the passing of friend Tom Cantrell and recap Squatch Fest, highlighting talks by Kathy Strain and dinners with Derek Randall and Wes from Sasquatch Chronicles. Cliff meets Michael Wallace, son of Ray Wallace, who believes his father hoaxed early Bigfoot evidence but still thinks Sasquatch exist, leading to plans for future collaboration. Listener questions drive the bulk of the episode, starting with a 14-year-old named James asking when Bigfoot will be discovered; Cliff admits to losing bets on five-year predictions, while Bobo gives a more measured response. Another question addresses using tracking devices on researchers, prompting humorous suggestions about chipping Bobo. Jeff from Minnesota asks about the Sierra Sounds footprint casts; Cliff expresses skepticism, noting the toes look unnatural, though he respects the researcher Ron Moorhead. Ron Cook voices concerns about paywalls in Bigfoot research, leading to a discussion on balancing accessibility with business needs and protecting sensitive data. Questions shift to lighter topics, including Bigfoot throwing rocks, using decoys, and a mistaken query about Dungeons & Dragons. Lee Flanagan asks about Sasquatch breathing sounds, with Cliff and Bobo sharing personal experiences of gurgling or exhaling noises. A voicemail reignites a debate about men peeing outdoors, with Cliff and Bobo defending the practice under certain conditions. The final question from a teacher in Saskatchewan inquires about Sasquatch hygiene, prompting speculation based on rare reports and the Tag 7 burr incident. The episode wraps with thanks to listeners and prompts for more submissions.
