Ep.58: Bigfoot In The Blink Of An Eye: The Leap That Stunned Me

03/15/25 • 65 min

A nighttime scream from the kitchen window of an Arkansas farmhouse would forever change Steve's understanding of our world. As a 19-year-old soldier stationed at Fort Polk in 1975, he found himself face-to-face with something science told him couldn't exist – a massive, bipedal creature that cleared a five-foot fence with ease and ran across open pasture "like a track star."
Standing just 25 feet away in the bright moonlight, Steve observed what would haunt him for decades: an eight-foot-tall, 700-pound being with a humanlike profile but clearly not human. The encounter culminated with the creature shattering through solid oak boards and unleashing a roar unlike anything Steve had ever heard in his extensive outdoor experience.
For 45 years, this decorated military veteran and retired law enforcement officer kept his encounter locked inside, fearing the ridicule that would follow. Only recently has he broken his silence, discovering his story resonates with thousands who've had similar experiences but lacked the courage to come forward.
Steve's testimony gains additional weight through corroborating incidents, including a massive military operation at Fort Polk where an entire battalion reportedly encountered a similar creature, resulting in a base-wide search that discovered a military transport truck mysteriously crushed and overturned.
Through sharing his experience, Steve has become an advocate for others harboring similar encounters, particularly fellow military and law enforcement personnel who fear professional repercussions from speaking out. His thoughtful reflections on what these creatures might be – intelligent beings with both human and animal characteristics – offers compelling insights into why they've remained so elusive despite countless sightings across North America.
Have you been keeping an encounter to yourself? Perhaps it's time to share your story and discover you're not alone in what you've experienced.

Ep.59: Time Slips, Bigfoot, and The Lost City Of Atlantis

What happens when we pull back the veil between our world and the unexplained? From bone-chilling encounters in the woods to whispers of government time travel experiments, this episode takes you on a journey through the shadows of possibility.
We begin with haunting cryptid encounters – skeletal figures leaping across roads, creatures that move faster than humanly possible, and unexplainable physical contacts that left witnesses shaken. The question emerges: what exactly is Bigfoot? Our conversation explores the fascinating theory that these beings might be interdimensional rather than purely biological, possibly serving as guardians of nature or existing in a realm just beyond our perception.
The mysteries deepen as we examine the infamous Philadelphia Experiment of 1943, where a Navy destroyer allegedly teleported over 200 miles in an instant. Witness accounts describe a greenish-blue mist surrounding the ship before its disappearance, and horrifying consequences for crew members – some reportedly fused into the ship's hull, others vanishing entirely. Could the government have been experimenting with time manipulation decades ago, and what might they have discovered?
Perhaps most compelling is our exploration of the Eye of the Sahara as a potential location for the lost civilization of Atlantis. This massive geological formation matches Plato's descriptions with uncanny precision – concentric rings, appropriate size, and geographical markers aligning with ancient accounts. Once possibly lush and green, could this desert structure be hiding humanity's most legendary lost city not beneath waves, but beneath sand?
Join us as we navigate these mysteries with open minds and a spirit of curious exploration. Have you experienced something you can't explain? We'd love to hear your stories and suggestions for future topics as we continue our journey into the unknown.
