In this episode, Shea crashes the Short Pour Podcast to sip Batsquatch IPA and dive headfirst into Pacific Northwest cryptid lore. From the weed-fueled origin stories of Bat Squatch to tales of Skamania County’s Bigfoot protection laws, the conversation hops between hazy beers, ridiculous one-star reviews, and Shea’s trademark skeptical humor. You’ll learn about Rogue’s famous Beard Beer, the Great American Beer Festival, and why Shea’s convinced the teenage Bat Squatch witness was just high as a kite. Plus, stick around for hilarious tangents on Momo the Missouri Monster, the Ozark Howler, and the infamous Ape Canyon attack.
🎧 Listen for juicy details, wild theories, and plenty of Pacific Northwest charm.
