Summary

Gene and cohost Tim Swartz present a highly-experienced Bigfoot-hunting team, David Eller and Janice Nolan. David is an artist an adventurer who has spent over 30 years as a monster hunter and cryptozoologist. Born in Illinois, David had what he calls a “Tom Sawyer boyhood” filled with the woodland investigations and natural history experimentation's that prepared him for a lifetime of cryptozoological experiences. His travels across North America, Canada, the Yucatán and various European countries have resulted in numerous encounters with the paranormal and the unexplained. He is author of "The Pagoda: In the Presence of Mystery," about a woven tree structure, both delicate and intricate, unlike anything he had encountered in his years of cryptozoological research. This structure, which he later dubbed “The Pagoda,” defies natural explanation, showcasing deliberate design and engineering that suggests a greater intelligence at work. It stands as a potential sign of cryptid behavior. With no evidence of human-made materials like ropes or ties, the structure relies solely on the dexterity and strength of its creator(s), leaving researchers baffled. Janice has worked as a camera operator and Cryptid investigator for the past 15 years with Relic Films. Director Greg Ogles and Janice Nolan have three documentaries, including "The Downey Booger," 'Cryptic Expeditions: The Land Between the Lakes" and the forthcoming "The Vanished." Over the years, Janice has had many speaking engagements as well as investigations. Check out their site: https://pursueparanormal.com/the-pagoda-site/
