Hello and welcome. You're tuned into the best in Paranormal Talk Radio. This is Darkness Radio.

I'm your host Dave Schrader along with me, Tim Dennis. Hello, Tim. Hey, how's it going?

It's going well, buddy. Hey, we've got a lot going on now. I know yesterday Tim was our supernatural news.

Okay. And usually when we focus on the news, we've got two news stories that I want to talk about.

And we've got a guest that we're going to bring on to discuss some of this in a few moments.

But first off, Bigfoot bounty has ballooned to $2.1 million in a massive campaign to capture the creature.

Yeah, Bigfoot is out there. You better get out Oklahoma. Just weeks after state representative Justin Humphrey presented a build to capture this mythical creature,

the bounty, which originally was a poultry $25,000 has ballooned to $2.1 million. Staturism officials are now developing a Bigfoot promotional campaign that includes license plates, decals, an annual commemorative tracking license and Bigfoot checkout stations,

and a long-term plan is to allow business along state highway 259.8 to sell annual Bigfoot tracking permits and profits from the sales would stay in local communities.

Humphrey said the ultimate goal is to draw on tourists by providing safe, affordable, fun, unless of course Bigfoot is real and puts up a fight.

So I don't know if I should be offended by this or applaud their marketing technique to get people to visit Oklahoma.

The hunting at Bigfoot and if you've proved the Bigfoot exists and bring them the body, live, or dead, $2.1 million.

I know there's a lot of people right now that are pretty hungry that would take that chance and would probably take the trip to Oklahoma.

You think? Yeah. Yeah. That's pretty remarkable. Well, that's pretty interesting news in itself. Like I said, I think a lot of it is more of a marketing technique and a ploy because now you've, you know, there are a lot of people out there.

I don't know if you're aware of this attempt that like Bigfoot and are intrigued by Bigfoot. It's true. A lot of people out there.

And if you want to bring people into Oklahoma, you've got now Bigfoot trinkets and Bigfoot is being treated in a specific way. You're going to get a lot of those Bigfooters who are going to go there for those little Nicknacks and to follow the trail and have fun and turn it into a journey.
