    Bob Gimlin -- Special Guest 

    Bob Gimlin was born in the Ozark Mountains of Missouri, and is a true cowboy with a lifetime of adventures.

    The most significant of his adventures happened on October 20th 1967, not far out of Willow Creek, California. In the famous Bluff Creek area, Bob was one of two men that witnessed and captured on film an iconic moment in history. The famous Patterson/Gimlin film shows a large, over 7-feet tall female Sasquatch at the creek’s edge. This magnificent creature caught sight of the men and their horses and proceeded to move away toward the forest, all the while, the camera was running and captured the iconic moment.

    The film that even to this day has made skeptics wonder if there is truly something more out there?

    Dr. Jeff Meldrum is a Full Professor of Anatomy & Anthropology at Idaho State University (since 1993). His research centers on the evolution of hominin bipedalism. His professional interest in the footprints attributed to sasquatch began when he personally examined a line of 15-inch tracks in the Blue Mountains of southeastern Washington, in 1996. Over 25 years later, his lab houses well over 300 footprint casts attributed to relict hominoids around the world. He conducts collaborative laboratory and field research throughout the world, and has shared his findings in numerous popular and professional publications and presentations, interviews, television appearances. He is author of Sasquatch: Legend Meets Science (Tom Doherty Publishers, 2006), which explores the contemporary scientific evidence for the reality of this legendary species, and also affords deference to tribal people’s traditional knowledge of this subject.

    Russell Victor Acord

    As an author and part-time filmmaker, with a full-time job in the Nuclear industry, I also had the privilege to land a role in the Travel Channels series of 'Expedition Bigfoot' with three other serious researchers. It has been an honor to work with such high-level team who truly bring a level of professionalism and experience to the field of Bigfoot research.

     

    My bio is a bit tricky as I try to add a piece of myself to my writings. I was born in Baltimore MD but as a child my father provided the greatest gift to our family and moved us to the state of Montana. Personally I feel that this is the greatest state in the US, but others will challenge that with their coast lines and warm climates, but I hold my ground with my majestic scenery.

    ​

    My book is written around the Bitterroot Mountains where I was raised and this allows for a closer description and personal touch and texture to the landscape. I don’t have a great Bigfoot experience to share, only that I look forward to researching and following up on leads.

    ​

    After grade school in Corvallis Montana and high school in Arlee Montana I traveled throughout the states trying to find my own direction but kept coming back to the familiar scenery of Montana as it always felt like home. For many years I have had this idea in my mind of what I thought the culture of how Bigfoot would live, and how they would keep so well hidden over the many years. I listened carefully to the plentiful tales that were told about the legendary Bigfoot and began to pick out the consistencies in the many stories and decided that this would be the foundation of my book.

    ​

    As an adult I answered the ‘call of patriotism’ and enlisted in the Army and embarked on the greatest highs and toughest lows of my life. I saw many different countries and cultures as a soldier and rode the evolving pendulum of the military life. Never have I been more proud of the men and women around me as I was serving my military career. I wanted my twenty five years in; but the ‘rough duties’ of a soldier caught up with me and I was medically (honorably) discharged from the US Army. The most difficult day of my life was driving away from post knowing that I was now a retired veteran and leaving my ‘active duty’ life behind. The military did however provide a four year college education for me which in itself brought new challenges. I minored in civil engineering and majored in Safety and Health Management and honored the military by graduating ‘Magna Cum Laude’. I set out into the Nuclear Safety field and kept typing away at the novel that had been brewing on my mind all these years.

    ​

    With a little midnight candle effort I finally completed the first of my trilogy in March of 2012. I became trapped in the world of  ‘career man’ responsibilities and found little time to write but never completely quit. Now that the second book, ‘Bigfoot and the Tripwire’ is completed (January 2016), my third book is already coming together.

    ​

    My life is simple; work hard, give it your all, let your mind accept that there are possibilities on this planet, secrets that have not yet been revealed. I believe that there are discoveries that have yet to present themselves to us… maybe in our lifetime we will be amazed with tangible evidence of Bigfoot, or we will have to keep believing in the possibility and continue the search.

    Stacy Brown picture2.jpg

    Stacey Brown 

    Hailing from the swamps of North Florida is film maker and skunk ape researcher Stacy Brown Jr. While watching “Unsolved Mysteries” in the early 90’s Stacy came across a segment on The Florida Skunk Ape and immediately became fascinated with the thought of a hairy monster running around the woods in his neighborhood. Over the next thirty one years he would dig thru the libraries for information, speak with hundreds of eye witnesses and even spend countless hours in the swamp in search of the creature. 

        On November 6th 2011 his work would finally pay off. That night he had his very first sighting of a skunk ape along the apalachicola river. Months later his father Stacy Sr would capture what is to be considered the best piece of footage of a skunk ape or Bigfoot type creature on thermal in northern Florida with a flir camera while camping one night with his son. Since then you may have seen him on Finding Bigfoot, strange evidence, travel channel and spike TVs 10 million dollar Bigfoot bounty in which he was awarded the $100,000 research grant. 

        In 2019 Stacy released a film documenting the best evidence and stories from his years of research titled “the skunk ape lives” which is available on YouTube now.

    Professor Matthew Szydagis received his B.A., M.S., and Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in 2005, 2006 and 2011 respectively, then continued his work in physics as a postdoctoral scholar at the University of California Davis (2010-2014). Since 2014, he has been a professor at the University at Albany Department of Physics, pursuing experimental particle astrophysics, in particular the direct laboratory detection of dark matter WIMPs (Weakly Interacting Massive Particles) underground, and general detector development for “rare event” searches. He works on the LUX (Large Underground Xenon) and LZ liquid-Xe based experiments and is the developer of the NEST (Noble Element Simulation Technique) software and the “snowball chamber” supercooled water technology. 

     

    He grew up watching Star Trek: The Next Generation right away with Season 1 from the age of ~5, falling in love with the character of Lt. Cmdr. Data, realizing that science officer was the position for him. Voyager fed his imagination in junior high and high school, and Enterprise in college. He became a physicist after being inspired by the time travel and faster-than-light warp drives in Star Trek. He realized that the UAP phenomenon may be tied to real-life extraterrestrial incursion after the AATIP reveal and the numerous trusted media outlets following up on it and the Nimitz incident, along with similar incidents. Lastly, recent discoveries by colleagues in the exoplanets field especially numerous Earth-like planets caused him to question the assumption of Earth’s uniqueness for life.

His inaugural keynote address as a candidate with the commercial astronaut corps was broadcast live to 108 sister cities around the world. NASA allocated funding to the corps for its first manned spaceflights the following spring.

    Jeremy McGowan -- UAPx Team

    A trained observer, investigator, and veteran of the United States Air Force. He built what Luis Elizondo called the “world’s first mobile UAP tracker” – the O.S.I.R.I.S. (Off-road Scientific Investigation & Response Informatics System.) 

     

    He is heavily embedded into the UFO/UAP community and appeared on History Channel’s “Unidentified: Inside America’s UFO Investigation" on Season 2, Episode 3.  His research and growth journey in the UAP community started in 1995 when he witnessed a still unknown event while deployed with the United States Air Force in Jordan.  Jeremy guarded what is thought to have been a recovered nuclear device when he saw a UAP exhibiting extreme flight characteristics that appeared non-conformant with the current known laws of flight and physics.

     

    Over the next 25 years, Jeremy never forgot his singular experience.  Then, as chance would have it, a serendipitous viewing of a random episode of “Unidentified: Inside America’s UFO Investigation” gave him the push to attempt to validate his experience by writing about it on Reddit and asking the internet community to help him identify the person who was with him on his deployment.  While that person to this day remains anonymous, producers for the History Channel contacted Jeremy. They enabled him to present his story to the world in Season two, episode three, “UFOs & Nukes.”

     

    Since then, Jeremy has become one of the leading voices in the UFO/UAP community. He has appeared on dozens of podcasts, starred in "A Tear in the Sky" movie, is involved in making a television series, and is spearheading a citizen-led grassroots effort to fast-track the ideas of disclosure.

     

    Not accepting the generational information drip of declassification without explanation from the US Government, Jeremy created his own UAP tracker, which utilizes, as its backbone, a SkyHub (www.skyhub.org) unit in conjunction with a multitude of other scientific data measurement devices.

     

    As a trained investigator, a prior pilot, and armed with a little technical knowledge, Jeremy pushes forward, seeking answers and researching one of the most intriguing and unknown elements of existence, “What is the Phenomenon?“

     

    Jeremy owns and operates the O.S.I.R.I.S. (Off-road Scientific Investigation & Response Informatics System) and can be found throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico with his unique vehicle while investigating, classifying, recording, and experiencing this phenomenon – all with the singular goal of providing answers to the world and not allowing data to end up obscured or hidden.
