I know Sasquatch's real animals. I've seen them attract them, I've smelled them. I know they're real. There's no doubt.

To me, that means their discovery or academic acceptance is inevitable. It will happen. Some hunter will pull a trigger one day and kill one.

Or maybe a logging truck will hit one on the way to work. Something will happen and a corpse will come in and then the mystery will be over.

Okay, raise your hand if you believe in Sasquatch. Like who here actually believes in Sasquatch?

Oh my goodness. Both my producers hands are raised. All right, Chelsea, you're nodding your head over here. Like, what is your experience with Sasquatch?

So, 16-year-old me popped in a pickup truck with three of my friends and we drove to Eastern Washington on a whim.

So we had no place to stay or anywhere to go. So we just drove up a forest service road and our plan was to sleep in the back of the truck.

And we were just hanging out and we started hearing these weird noises that were unlike any noise I've heard.

And I've been camping my whole life. I've been outside, I've done backpacking, I've done all of that.

It was like a weird kind of like deep huffing noise. It wasn't a bear that wasn't anything.

And so we sent my friend Jake out to go explore with his airsoft rifle, which would do nothing.

And he just about 10 minutes later, he just came screaming back to the car and said he saw like a big thing in the distance.

And then for the rest of the night, we just kind of hear these these deep grumbly noises from in the distance off in the trees.

So we didn't impersonate that grumbly noise. Absolutely not.

Come on, it's like Sasquatch made a noise.

No, no, no, it was a lot more subtle. It was like a deep rumbling.

It's like more, you know, from your throat or like guttural than you would ever hear come from a creature.

Which is why it was so scary to us because it wasn't like anything we'd ever heard before.

Okay, Sylvia, you believe in Sasquatch for real?

Well, before we interviewed Cliff, I didn't, but now I do.

What did you change your mind?

The way that Cliff talks about like the footprints and stuff and how it couldn't be possible for it just to be someone in a suit doing the footprints given like where the ankles and the toes and everything hit.
