627: Decoding Bigfoot

<div>In Episode 627: Decoding Bigfoot, we talk with researcher Matt Pruitt, focusing on his book "The Phenomenal Sasquatch: Seeking the Natural Origins of a Cultural Icon." Pruitt offers a fascinating blend of scientific investigation and cultural understanding in his work, analyzing the intersection of fact and folklore surrounding Sasquatch. He then recounts his dedicated efforts in collecting detailed reports about a red-haired Sasquatch, tracing its migration, and compiling eyewitness testimonies. The discussion expands to cover various aspects of bigfoot research, including their physical traits, historical evidence, and personal encounters. Pruitt's insights from both his field research and his book provide a rich, multi-dimensional view of the Sasquatch phenomenon. <br /><br /><strong>Matt Pruitt<br /></strong>Book: <a href="https://www.amazon.com/Phenomenal-Sasquatch-Seeking-Natural-Cultural/dp/B0C91N7XFL">The Phenomenal Sasquatch: Seeking The Natural Origins of a Cultural Icon</a><br /> Website: <a href="https://mattpruittonline.com/">mattpruittonline.com</a><br /><br /><strong>The Confessionals Members App:</strong><br />Apple Store: <a href="https://apple.co/3UxhPrh">https://apple.co/3UxhPrh</a><br />Google Play: <a href="https://bit.ly/43mk8kZ">https://bit.ly/43mk8kZ</a><br /><br /><strong>Become a member for AD FREE listening and EXTRA shows:</strong> <a href="https://www.theconfessionalspodcast.com/join">theconfessionalspodcast.com/join</a><br /><br /><strong>Watch The Shape of Shadows:</strong> <a href="https://www.merkel.media/stream-now">https://www.merkel.media/stream-now</a><br /><strong>Watch Expedition Dogman:</strong><a href="https://bit.ly/3CE6Kg0"> https://bit.ly/3CE6Kg0</a><br /><br /><strong>AFFILIATES<br />Prepare with Valley Food Storage:</strong> <a href="https://alnk.to/2uG55AO">https://alnk.to/2uG55AO</a><strong><br />Get your Nephilim Blaster 2000: </strong><a href="https://alnk.to/9mnHak1">https://alnk.to/9mnHak1</a><strong><br />Bluecosmo Satellite phones: </strong><a href="https://alnk.to/e769Eip">https://alnk.to/e769Eip</a><strong><br />See Bigfoot with Sionyx night vision:</strong> <a href="https://alnk.to/bEhxr3F">https://alnk.to/bEhxr3F</a><strong><br />Emergency medical with My Medic:</strong> <a href="https://alnk.to/dpr6QM4">https://alnk.to/dpr6QM4</a><strong><br />Black Beard Fire Starters:</strong> <a href="https://alnk.to/4BFcIbe">https://alnk.to/4BFcIbe</a><strong><br />EcoFlow Power Generators:</strong> <a href="https://alnk.to/flvpAQw">https://alnk.to/flvpAQw</a><br /><strong>GoDark Faraday Bags:</strong> <a href="https://alnk.to/5jke3rk">https://alnk.to/5jke3rk</a><strong><br />EMP Shield: </strong><a href="https://www.empshield.com/">empshield.com</a> Coupon Code: "<strong>tony</strong>" for $50 off every item you purchase!<em><br /><br /></em><strong>SPONSORS</strong><em><br /></em><strong>FACTOR MEALS: </strong><a href="https://www.factor75.com/pages/podcast?c=CONFESSIONALS50&amp;mealsize=8-1&amp;c_comms=PERCENT&amp;utm_source=podcast&amp;utm_medium=cpm&amp;utm_campaign=podcast50off&amp;utm_content=act_podcast_podcastads&amp;vs_campaign_id=07a8da85-76a7-4540-8dc1-4e6861f6b4c8">factormeals.com/confessionals50</a><br /><strong>SIMPLISAFE TODAY:</strong> <a href="https://simplisafe.com/confessionals">simplisafe.com/confessionals</a><br /><strong>Hello Fresh: </strong><a href="https://www.hellofresh.com/pages/podcast?page=pages&amp;page=podcast&amp;c=CONFESSIONALSFREE&amp;dm=meals&amp;mealsize=3-2&amp;vs_campaign_id=a3245f09-db2e-4ee8-ad25-8d20ac88e66d">hellofresh.com/confessionalsfree</a> Promo Code: "confessionalsfree" for FREE BREAKFAST FOR LIFE!!!<br /><br /><strong>CONNECT WITH US</strong><br /><strong>Website</strong>: <a href="http://www.theconfessionalspodcast.com/">www.theconfessionalspodcast.com</a><br /><strong>Email</strong>: contact@theconfessionalspodcast.com<br /><strong>Subscribe to the Newsletter</strong>: <a href="https://www.theconfessionalspodcast.com/the-newsletter">https://www.theconfessionalspodcast.com/the-newsletter</a><br /><br /><strong>MAILING ADDRESS:</strong><br />Merkel Media<br />257 N.
