Monster House Presents

It's actually quite unlike anything we've ever seen before.

A giant hairy creature, part ape, part mad. In Larkness, a 24-mile long bottomless lake in the highlands of Scotland. It's a creature known as the Loch Ness Monster. I'm sorry. Welcome to Monster Talk.

Welcome to Monster Talk, the science show about monsters.

I'm Blake Smith.

And I'm Karen Stolznor.

Hey there, Monster Talkers.

This week, Karen and I are going to chat about a couple of research projects that I've been working on.

Hopefully stuff that will come out later this year. I just enjoy taking the time occasionally to talk about our process and researching and

contextualizing monsters, and we will be covering a little-known part of the history of a

very well-known film, the Patterson Gimlin footage.

And we'll also be chatting a little bit about my efforts

to understand the van meter visitor. Both of these projects are still in process, but it's

really nice to sit down with Karen and you, beloved listeners, to talk about what I'm working on

and how I'm going about it. Monster Talk. Welcome back. It feels like it's been a thousand years.

So that's like eight days in this world.

Yeah, like it must be in dogs lives or cats lives or something.

Yeah.

Cats years and dogs years.

But yeah, we've got a lot going on.

That's for sure.

And so many things going on.
