What happens when a mother follows her autistic son's passion for Bigfoot into the forests of Colorado — and ends up having life-changing encounters of her own?
In this heartfelt and mysterious episode, we sit down with Dana Beasley, also known as Sasquatch Mom, a Bigfoot researcher from the Pikes Peak region. Dana shares her incredible journey from being a fearful skeptic to becoming a dedicated field investigator, alongside her son Sam, whose experiences with vocalizations, thrown pinecones, and strange forest structures have left even seasoned researchers curious.
You’ll hear stories from Rampart Range, Lost Creek Wilderness, and Skagway Reservoir — including mysterious whoops in the night, glowing eyes in the forest, and the moment they realized they might not be alone out there.
More than just a cryptid story, this episode explores how the search for Sasquatch became a powerful tool for connection, healing, and transformation for one unique family.Topics covered:
- Autism and Bigfoot: Is there a connection?
- Strange encounters in Colorado's forests
- Parenting through shared adventure
- How Bigfoot research brought a family closer
