Wow! Looking forward to this one. Congratulations on your 500th episode. We’ve been avid listeners since episode 3. The show just keeps getting better. Many thanks Wes and well done!!!
Robert C
The episode I have been waiting for!!! Awesome Wes!! I have always been a fan of Les Stroud and Survivorman and Survivorman Bigfoot! The Survivorman Bigfoot series in my opinion is hands down the most credible show on the subject. I thought for years if anyone would find or get to the truth about bigfoot it would be him. Then when I heard he was going to make a series on the subject it was dream come true! I had mentioned in the past how it would be awesome to have him on SC. Another dream come true!! Thanks brother!! Perfect guest for the 500!! Can’t wait!

I agree 100% with Robert C. Wes and Les together.!! The Sasquatch Dream Team !! ?❤

Wow. I didn’t realize that Stroud was from the Huntsville area. I am amazed at the things I learn here beyond BF.
Congrats!!! on the upcoming SC .5K , Wes!!! 🙂 Looking forward to 1000 where you reveal the one you have hidden in your garage. 😉 😀

Ha Ha – I thought Huntsville? I didn’t hear that, so I looked it up. Yep, Huntsville, Canada that is, not Texas. 🙂 I never even heard of a Huntsville Texas! Goes to show How Much I have learned from the SC members as well. God Bless you Steven B.

sorry, should have said of a Huntsville in Canada!
Steven B
Thanks, m! I used to live south of Huntsville, Ontario Canada by about a 1.5 to 2 hour drive. It is in what it called “The Muskokas” – beautiful countryside. The granite of the “Canadian Shield” can be seen every where – often roads go through rock cuts. Lots of lakes and rivers. Sportsman’s paradise. Fishing/Hunting. It is habitat suitable for BF or biped canids.

You probably wouldn’t hear of Huntsville, Ontario – It is not very big as cities go, more of a town. Pop. approx 20,000

Looking forward to the big 500!!! WHOOP! WHOOP! A great big, Bigfoot shout out to you, Wes, for an amazing show & all your hard work on Sasquatch Chronicles! Cheers! ??

I always liked Mr. Stroud, he is indeed the real deal. He also has brought a new dynamic and credibility ( for the uninformed audience ) in his Bigfoot episodes. Of course he has documented two encounters that led him to this new venture.
My gosh Wes, 500 episodes on the near horizon. Where did the time go since I first signed up in Dec. of 2014. The cable channels are full of ghost and demonic entity shows, and other shows do a pretty good job on UFOs. However there is not much concerning Bigfoot. It sure would be neat if some production company could collaborate with you on some of the best witnesses on your shows and bring these to the Big Screen. Continued success my friend.

Agreed!

Congratulations Wes!! We are the big winners here! Here’s to 500 more shows .. (Please!!!) ????
Kim C. L
Thank you, Wes!
And, like my pal, Steve, I can’t wait for episode 1,000 also.
Tho, I already know, you aint got no squatch in your garage,
unless, he or she is pretending to be a fleet of Hummers !
Glen K
(New Jersey) Wes, you never cease to amaze!! Great Guest, and Congratulations on 500 !!!

Congratulations Wes, you are the best in your field. I also want to recognize and thank you for bringing together the best audience on the internet, your member base here is something I’m very proud to be a part of as I believe it is the most positive and open and giving group. There is very little of the negative attacks you see in other forums or groups and when it happens it is not encouraged. I believe that is because of your example and they way you interact with others sets the tone here and sets it apart. Thanks again!!

500 shows? Already?, and to think I have been here since the very first show, I’ve been sticking it out, waiting and hoping that the shows will eventually get better, I figured if you did enough of these you would finally get the hang of it, oh how I was wrong, but I have faith in you, I’m going to stick around only for maybe another 500 and then that’s it, I’m leaving !!

Congrats on the upcoming #500 Wes! This is going to be great with Les! You have one of the best podcasts out there and I’m so glad I found you and became a member. The episodes never disappoint! Sometimes they are the perfect diversion from other things…
Thanks to the guests as well who are willing to share their, in almost all cases, life altering encounters. Thanks to all!

Dovie D
Great stuff Wes. I love survivor man too. I’ve been listening to you for years too. I met you several months after I began listening to your podcast in Portland at an event Hop…something ?? I’m not sure if you recall the event but There were several guest speakers who shared about their encounters then I decided to share at the last minute. I was hesitant and no way could I get my husband on that stage. Anyway..it has taken me Listening to…oh I don’t know how many stories on Sasquatch chronicles as well as other podcasts before I began to recall all of my own encounters. In Portland at the event several years ago I thought I had the one..lol. Not st all! It’s amaxing how our brain works, what it takes to trigger our memory and things we bury. You might not be a licensed therapist Wes but you could be one for those that have encountered Sasquatch or dogman or whatever cryptic. Stay safe. I’m looking forward to the show
Kathryn S
Excited for this one. Congratulations Wes on 500 shows (getting in early)
