A listener writes “I have believed in Sasquatch as long as I can remember. I saw the Patterson/Gimlin footage when I was three or four years old in 76 or 77. I didn’t get the itch until I was mushroom hunting (morels) in southern Indiana and started seeing ‘ X’s’ and other tree structures.

I have hundreds of photos of these. I started going out, studying BFRO sites, Indiana, and Kentucky, and figuring out where the sightings, or activity happened, so I could visit these sites and maybe get some activity as well.

I have a lake where each time I go I get tree knocks, mostly during the day. I was leaving this area and seen a ball of light, first, and only time. A friend of mine, Charlie Raymond was on your show and told you about my Orb sighting. It was illuminated, like a soft white almost, but not shining on anything. It was floating away from me, bigger than a golf ball, smaller than a baseball. It kind of scared me, I wanted to follow it, but I was afraid to. So, I left.

One of the locations that I figured out on Kentucky BFRO, was a ways away from my house, about a hour and a half, way down in Kentucky. The owner of the property had sightings, and nightly rock throwings at his car and house when he would get home from work at 330-400 AM for 2-3 months at a time. Charlie Raymond knew this gentleman and got permission for me to go to his house, and talk to him and check it out. I went there, but didn’t want to bother him, so I sat about a half mile from his house by myself at 1200am – 100am.

I saw orange lights across the tree line, and heard sounds like a “woof”, but not a dog woof, a whole bunch. So, where I grew up in Illinois, guys aways went Raccoon hunting at night, and this is what I thought was going on, but it didn’t sound like dogs. So finally, that calmed down, and it was dark dark, and where I am sitting “in my truck” watching, is 50 yards to the tree line. I saw two orange things “Glowing Orange” not bright orange, but orange, floating across the tree line. This whole time I was there for some Sasquatch activity, but the whole time I was there I wasn’t thinking Sasquatch. A month or two later it came to me when I was listening to someone on your show and they said something about orange eyes.

I have had more activity close to Bloomington, Indiana. Been hit with a rock, had rocks thrown when I was relieving myself, lol. Boulder sounding splashes in the lake across from me in the middle of the night. I picked up a big rock like they put in ditches for erosion control, and it sounded like a pebble compared to that.”

ThinkerThunker writes “We now have the ability to literally “SEE” and distinguish the vocalizations of all known species (including humans) as though we were looking at fingerprints. You’ll see in this quick video that there is a large, unknown species out there with incredibly complex vocal abilities that produces sound far differently from all known species.”

A listener writes “I wasn’t going to share this until i saw a similar experience in the same area of the Uwharrie forest. I was at the trailhead of Dutchmans Creek at 9 in the morning during a week day about two weeks ago.

Mine was the only car at the trailhead until after 10:30 with only logging trucks passing through every 30-45 minutes. I was walking down Dutchmans Creek, enjoying the solitude and quiet of the forest when I turned a bend and heard a loud wood knock at my two o’clock and was answered by another at my 10 o’clock within one second of the first. It threw me off because it sounded like an answering reply. I walked back up the trail and hung out for about thirty minutes just listening relaxing before I choose to head back down the trail. As i approached the same bend in the trail I again heard a wood knock at my 10 o’clock and then a second at my 5 o’clock.

Extremely weird I thought, and again within one second of each other. I decided to walk back up the trail towards the second knock. There’s an atv trail near the trailhead I walked up until I heard another wood knock around the same area I would have estimated the second at my 5 o’clock would have been. I waited for about fifteen minutes without hearing or seeing anything else. I decided to walk back to the base of the trail head and within twenty foot steps back down the trail I heard something huff at me from over my left shoulder. It came from inside a deep ditch but I didn’t see anything there.

I’ve had deer huff at me before when I’ve gotten close and they spotted me, I’m sure bear huff as well to threaten/challenge something but what got me was that I heard and saw no movement at all throughout this entire time. I walked back to the trailhead, waited 15-20 min and then snook back towards the same spot. I was completely quiet; no rustling from my clothes, boots didn’t rustle plants and no crunch from dried leaves or twigs. As I approached I heard what sounded like a guttural baby moan or call. This occurred in high brush on the other side of the ditch to my right.

The sound occurred every hand full of minutes and I would creep closer to see if I could spot it. Though the sound would change the direction it was facing there was never any movement in the brush and though I always carry when I’m in the woods I dared not enter into the thick brush, especially since I couldn’t identify the animal that had huffed at me nor what type of animal was making the cries from in the brush. I didn’t feel spooked until after the event when I thought over what had happened. I enjoy the woods, tracking and following game trails and though most of my experience is in Florida swamps with hogs or deer I couldn’t identify the guttural moaning or see the thing that huffed at me.”

Paranthropus is a genus of extinct hominin which contains two widely accepted species: P. robustus and P. boisei. However, the validity of Paranthropus is contested, and it is sometimes considered to be synonymous with Australopithecus. They are also referred to as the robust australopithecines. They lived between approximately 2.9 and 1.2 million years ago (mya) from the end of the Pliocene to the Middle Pleistocene.

Paranthropus is characterized by robust skulls, with a prominent gorilla-like sagittal crest along the midline—which suggest strong chewing muscles—and broad, herbivorous teeth used for grinding. However, they likely preferred soft food over tough and hard food. Typically, Paranthropus species were generalist feeders, but while P. robustus was likely an omnivore, P. boisei seems to have been herbivorous, possibly preferring abundant bulbotubers. Paranthropoids were bipeds. Despite their robust heads, they had comparatively small bodies. Average weight and height are estimated to be 40 kg (88 lb) at 132 cm (4 ft) for P. robustus males, 50 kg (110 lb) at 137 cm (4 ft 6 in) for P. boisei males, 32 kg (71 lb) at 110 cm (3 ft 7 in) for P. robustus females, and 34 kg (75 lb) at 124 cm (4 ft 1 in) for P. boisei females.

They were possibly polygamous and patrilocal, but there are no modern analogues for australopithecine societies. They are associated with bone tools and contested as the earliest evidence of fire usage. They typically inhabited woodlands, and coexisted with some early human species, namely A. africanus, H. habilis and H. erectus. They were preyed upon by the large carnivores of the time, specifically crocodiles, leopards, sabertoothed cats and hyenas.

Sam Shoemate is an intelligence officer and Chief Warrant Officer 2 (US Army, Retired). On December 31st, Sam received an email allegedly from Matthew Livelsberger – who would be named as the perpetrator in the detonation of a Tesla Cybertruck at Trump Tower the following day. In this episode of the Shawn Ryan Show, Shoemate brings forward critical information and allegations that cast doubt on the “mainstream” narratives surrounding this event – and many others – if true.

The Irish Star reports “The mystery of New Jersey’s skies buzzing with drones has led to tightened restrictions on the devices. Residents have been inundated with sightings of inexplicable flying objects , prompting a swift government response to alleviate fears, insisting there is no threat to national security.

Despite this, the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) has broadened its drone exclusion zone ; initially encompassing 22 districts, it now includes another nine. Although less frequent, current clips still emerge from counties like Somerset, Ocean, and Bergen, perpetuating public fascination—yet the FAA’s motivations for the extended ban remain opaque.

The FAA referred questions to Homeland Security, resulting in a referral loop, while the FBI acknowledged only 100 out of around 5,000 drone reports as “credible.”

Even amid stricter controls and increased oversight, officials stand firm that there’s no national security or safety peril. National Security Council spokesperson John Kirby asserted: “We have not identified anything anomalous or any national security or public safety risk over the civilian airspace in New Jersey or other states in the Northeast.”

Ocean County Sheriff Michael G. Mastronardy reported that his officers used their drone to chase a group of mysterious aircraft “coming off the ocean” after being spotted by a deputy, but the “industrial-grade” drone couldn’t keep up with the faster objects, reports the Express US .

Authorities in Ocean County had sought an emergency declaration back in December to allow for federal assistance in dealing with these drone incidents. This period saw heightened activity, despite stricter drone restrictions.

Congressman Jeff Van Drew told The New York Post that his high-clearance US government sources have confirmed fears that these drones could be foreign surveillance devices. He expressed alarm saying: “Something’s very wrong,” noting the drones’ ability to travel undetected as they are the size of minivans and fly through radar-blind zones.

He added more detail on the unsettling nature of the situation: “We’ve got unidentifiable, sophisticated drones, as big as minivans, carefully navigating airspace that’s not covered by radar, in a very important part of our country, and still, a month later, we somehow don’t know anything. ” Van Drew also criticized the tranquilizing responses from the government, stressing: “We’re being told, ‘Don’t worry, everything’s okay.'”.

Monmouth County Sheriff Shaun Golden raised the alarm over public safety due to a spike in nocturnal drone activity: “Residents are increasingly alarmed by the surge in drone activity after dark, raising concerns about public safety and security.”

He urged immediate action, stating, “We cannot wait any longer. The Governor must act now, and the Air National Guard needs to step in to protect our communities.”

A listener writes “Hi, Wes. I have been thinking of contacting you for over a year. It was 2004 and happened after I moved from southern California to Florida in a newly built neighborhood that was previously very rural.

I couldn’t get to my neighborhood without running over hundreds of snakes and frogs and this that, and the other just to get there after it was built. It’s where all the locals used to talk about going to the woods. They used to go out to do 4×4, what they call mudding.
two other people were with me when the encounter happened. When I got back, my wife at the time rolled her eyes, but this was very real.

The boys I was with thought it was a grinch because it was tall and skinny and that’s all we could compare it to that at the time, so they called it the Gray Grinch (a very scary version)

I knew exactly what it was, so when I was asked by the family what it was, I said it was a SMOKED OUT BIGFOOT meaning it looked like it was sasquatch smoking crack or something because it looked very skinny and gray. I knew these animals existed because my half brother grew up in a place called Grants Pass Oregon. I would hear about his encounters as a boy. Stories I couldn’t forget.

I know your somebody who actually knows that they’re real.. So your show is the only I trust. I even tried to make it light hearted when trying to tell people by joking about its appearance, but in fact it really scared the crap out of us.”

The Independent reports “A newly discovered ‘dinosaur highway’ has been discovered buried under mud in a quarry in England. Researchers have discovered nearly 200 dinosaur footprints dating back 166 million years, changing what we knew about the creatures.

The dig, carried out at Dewars Farm Quarry in Oxfordshire by teams from the Universities of Oxford and Birmingham, uncovered five extensive trackways, forming part of a ‘dinosaur highway’ – with evidence of more in the surrounding area.

The longest continuous track of footprints measured more than 150 metres in length, with four made by long-necked herbivorous dinosaurs called sauropods and most likely to be Cetiosaurus, an up to 18-metre-long cousin of the Diplodocus.

The fifth trackway was made by the nine-metre long carnivorous Megalosaurus which had distinctive, large, three-toed feet with claws, the University of Birmingham said.

The fifth trackway was made by the nine-metre long carnivorous Megalosaurus which had distinctive, large, three-toed feet with claws, the University of Birmingham said.

One area of the site shows the carnivore and herbivore tracks crossing over, prompting questions about whether and how the two were interacting. Experts were called into the quarry when worker Gary Johnson felt “unusual bumps” as he was stripping clay back with a digger to expose the quarry floor. The Universities of Oxford and Birmingham co-led a team of more than 100 people on a week-long excavation in June 2024, uncovering around 200 footprints, creating 20,000 photographs and building detailed 3D models of the site using aerial drone photography.

The new trackways connect to discoveries made in the area in 1997, where limestone quarrying revealed more than 40 sets of footprints, with some trackways reaching up to 180 metres in length.

Experts say the new discoveries will provide valuable insights into how the dinosaurs walked, speeds they reached, how big they were, and if and how they interacted with each other.

Dr Duncan Murdock, earth scientist at the Oxford University Museum of Natural History (OUMNH), said: “The preservation is so detailed that we can see how the mud was deformed as the dinosaurs’ feet squelched in and out.

Professor Richard Butler, professor of palaeobiology at the University of Birmingham, said: “There is much more that we can learn from this site, which is an important part of our national Earth heritage.

“Our 3D models will allow researchers to continue to study and make accessible this fascinating piece of our past for generations to come.”

Clone Robotics is working on a project that could change how we view robots and close the gap between humans and machines. The startup company shared a video on its official YouTube page of a biomimetic android robot with a human’s shoulders, neck, and torso.

With detailed human anatomical structures like the glenohumeral, scapulothoracic, acromioclavicular, and sternoclavicular joints in place, the stark white robot recreated eerily similar human-like movements with artificial muscles.

Under the torso demo, many viewers couldn’t help but note how eerily similar the robot looked to something straight out of the American Sci-fi series Westworld. The startup company also shared videos of their synthetic hand that, composed of life-like fingers and wrists, could form a fist and spread its fingers individually. Powered by hydraulic muscles, this robot flawlessly simulated the strength and flexibility of real muscles, giving the eerie feeling of a human hand detached from its body. But as creepy as it might seem, we’re closer than ever to having robots that move as seamlessly as real humans.
