Summary

Does the infamous 59-seconds of shaky, grainy Bigfoot footage shot by Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin in 1967 the woods in Northern California prove the existence of Bigfoot? And more importantly is the footage real, and if so how was it made and originally distributed? Those are just some of the questions that guest Phil Hall researched and answered for his new book, “The Weirdest Movie Ever Made: The Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot Film.” Phil details what he discovered and uncovered about the film, the conspiracies surrounding it, and even the filmmakers themselves (who were actually rodeo riders; not filmmakers). He shares other Bigfoot sighting stories he stumbled across as he worked on his book, and offers his own theory about whether or not Bigfoot really exists, including the one featured in the Patterson-Gimlin film.

0:00.0	All right, welcome to talk is Jericho is the part of thunder and rock and roll and today due
0:21.3	to a glitch in the system we're going to replay the deathbaking joke of the week from last
0:26.4	Friday, even though it's Wednesday, an extra special bonus joke of the week. My awesome
0:32.1	producer Stacy had a technical issue and the joke did not make it into the show at first.
0:37.1	So for those of you who missed it, it was not edited out on purpose. Thank you for listening.
0:40.7	And here you go. It's the deathbaking joke of the week. Do over.
0:44.5	Hey, Chris Jericho. It's deathbaking, Paul. Yeah. Calling it from snowmageddon. They're calling
0:54.1	it here in Seattle. Snowmageddon. It's just snow, by the way, but we never get it up here.
1:00.1	So snowmageddon, it shall be. Hey, listen, you know what's worse than ants in your pants?

1:40.9	ever seen any big foot clips, even if you've only seen one, I guarantee it's this one is the close-up
1:46.0	of the Bigfoot walking through the woods, kind of in color through the trees. It's called
1:50.7	the Patterson film or, you know, more specifically the Patterson, Gimlin film. And Phil thoroughly
1:56.5	researched that 59 seconds shaky grainy footage that offered evidence to the existence of the
2:02.3	Bigfoot. I know most of you who listen have seen that film. And if you haven't just go to
