| 0:20.0 | Hi friends, Kurt here. |
| 0:21.4 | Today's episode is a revisited episode from 2018, Laura Krantz, and she's talking about searching for Bigfoot and also her podcast, Wild Thing. |
| 0:33.7 | It's a really fun episode. |
| 0:35.9 | I've heard it a few times. Mason is the host on this one, but I love the mystery of Bigfoot, which you probably know if you listen to my Bigfoot episode.

| 1:59.4 | and numerous enough to have become part of the iconic, |

| 2:13.3 | that humans have dealt with for thousands of years. Native American tribes say, of course, |
