In this episode, we dive into the legend of the Yahoo Bigfoot, a creature said to inhabit the forests of West Virginia and Kentucky. This black-haired Bigfoot is said to be 8 feet tall, with some reports claiming that it can even reach 10 feet in height. It is believed to be highly intelligent and will often work jointly in small groups, but can also be very hostile, with some hunters reporting that small trees have been thrown at them.

One of the most famous encounters with the Yahoo Bigfoot was that of the frontiersman Daniel Boone, where he killed a Yahoo while protecting his son. Jonathan Swift also wrote about a large creature which he called a Yahoo in his book Gulliver's Travels.

Join us on episode 153 where we discuss this mythological beast!

Oh, welcome. It's always interestingwhen Evan joins us. Um, we're

(01:23):
gonna talk about the Yahoo, whichis the West Virginia Bigfoot, the name
coined by Daniel Boone. We'll getto his story, but yes, Finally,
it's been a bit since we talkedabout a bigfoot type creature, right,
yeah, so it's seemed about time. Nash, thank you for not
trying to make a Yahoo joke ordoing the Yahoo what's their slogan? Yahoo?

(01:49):
Thank you? I appreciate it.Shouldn't you have waited until the year?
I know? Oh yeah, thanks, Mark wasted the joke. Okay,
all right, well why don't weuh, we're gonna talk about the
Yahoo. We're gonna talk about somemonster movies on the second half. So
hopefully it's fun entertaining, and Ihope you're happy to hear us in the

(02:14):
new year because we took a littlebreak. That's right. Yeah, but
no longer keep interrupting an issue justso she's getting ready to radio potentially doing
it. All right, let's talkingabout this big book creature Yahoo, the
Yahoo also known as the Yahoo yaoeand Yo? What was the third name?

(02:36):
You just said? Yeah? Yeah, yeah, is it yah yo?
Yeah? I don't know, it'sy e a h h no.
But saying how you said it's yahoyeho? Yeah, yeah, didn't I
say that? Now you were likeyeyo, Well said something different but with
a whole. Oh okay, well, anyway, it is considered to be

(03:01):
West Virginia's most infamous bigfoot. Now, the Yahoo's reported to be around eight
feet tall with very hairy, jetblack fur. And he gets my son
just pointed out, I know,um, you know, then we're talking
all. We did all the nameseverything. But also I did find that

(03:23):
the Cherokee had another name for it. They caught up the stone man.
Yeah, okay, I don't know. Is because it's throwing stones in the
rocky mountains. Well, well we'lltalk about that later. Okay. Uh.
It gets its name from a terrifyinglyloud scream that it makes yahoo well

(03:49):
everything else. Yeah, I wasgonna say, is it more like a
like that or is it like aYahoo Maria? Oh jeez, yeah,
I don't know. Now, theYahoo it's believed to be highly intelligent and
will often work jointly in small groups, but can also be very hostile,
with some hunters reporting that small treeshave been thrown at them. I also

(04:13):
saw a post that loggers were gettinglogs hurled at them. Okay, okay,
let's yeah, yeah, let's unpackthat. So let's go back to
the throwing trees. Okay, smalltrees. We're talking like a shrubbery.
M Are we talking like a shrubberyshrubbery? Or is it like a like

(04:33):
a Christmas tree? Well, we'retalking like it was a small tree.
Yeah. Everything that I found itsaid small trees. So I have no
idea. I'm just thinking it's asmall tree. Anybody can throw a small
tree, you could anything. Iconsider a small tree to be human sized,

(04:56):
so it's not that small. Yeah, it's not like a little tiny
it's not a sapling. Well,but you can throw a Christmas tree of
human size, a six foot Christmastree. Yeah, but we're talking some
distance to hit something, right andnot that person not realizing that the trees
coming from somebody standing right here.Yeah, okay, but it makes me
wonder, what do you talking about? The loggers said the yaho The yahoo

(05:20):
was also throwing logs, Yeah atthem. It made me think, you
know how monkeys. Has there everbeen reports a bigfoot throwing poop at people?
Evan, you know this, Iactually wouldn't. Okay, it really

(05:41):
goes is it? Is it ais a solid log? Is it a
fresh log? Let's say, Imean if it's a little log, that's
that's right. We're talking about poopstalking about trees here. Uh no,
I imagine. So I would ratherbe hit by a rock thrown by a
big foot then his scat. Yeah, well I would imagine, and I

(06:06):
feel like that's a major insult.If you get a poop run at you.
Yeah, well, I imagine ifyou throw it. I've never done
this, but if you throw poop, it would need to be like drying
and hard, or it would justlike splatter everywhere, right, like a
big enough spoon. Well, ifso say you so, say you're you're
a yahoe out in the woods andyou're getting ready to throw a poop at

(06:29):
somebody. Do you throw a freshone? It's gotta be a fresh one.
Yeah, the bigger insult. Youthink they're just like stockpiling. I
just don't think you would be ableto throw a fresh poop very far,
like it's carrying it around like adried dunk, just in case he runs
across the something fiberus They're like,Oh, this one's gonna be I'm gonna

(06:50):
save this one. Rold is upin pine needles. This is a good
one. But here we talk aboutbig foot spoop. Didn't see that coming,
but we should have USh, I'msorry like it for on log.
No. According to local legend,it is known to eat from nearby gardens

(07:11):
or even steel hoole pigs as youdo. Yes, um, Now,
the Yahoo has been seen and heardin the woods and forests of West Virginia,
Kentucky and apparently other places in theworld. Yeah, I took that
from you know, it's a quoteknown sightings on the moon yet no,

(07:34):
no, yeah, Now, Iknow this will come up later, but
in case there's somebody listening in thatbecause we've mentioned the Yawi before, which
is what Australia refers to their biggesttime you say that, time you say
that, so I that will thatdoes come into play later in our discussion
day because I knew you got somethingabout that, but as every time you

(07:57):
keep saying yawing like that's the Australiabig Foot. Yeah, m Now,
the first encounter with the Yahoo isunknown, but possibly could be from the
Earth. Now, so any websitethat I came across, they didn't really
have a whole lot of information aboutthe Yahoo and it was all kind of
the same information. But yeah,the first encounter is unknown, but we

(08:20):
think maybe it was around this time, but we know it was in the
eighteen hundreds because that's when Daniel Booneand oh there you go. Yeah,
we don't know when the first onewas. So I just have a couple
um possible sightings, uh that aremore recent. Uh, and then I
think we can move to mister Booneand uh the other one. Yeah.

(08:46):
Anyway, Um, so there wasa sighting in November of nineteen ninety five.
Now this it wasn't a sighting,but it was rather a vocalization.
Sorry, guys, what they believeto be a big foot? What'd that
sound like? Kevin? You caninterpret? Now, that's why we have

(09:11):
you on the show. This witnesswas twenty one years old and hunting in
Fayette County in West Virginia. Now, they set up a camp on what
is called the riverfront and uh,they were in that spot for about thirty
minutes before daylight and waited as theday Yeah, let me let me say

(09:33):
that again. I'm sorry. Theywere in that spot for about thirty minutes
before daylight and waited as the daywent on. No sign of anything,
even though deer were plentiful, umusually uh, not even a chipmunk was
seen Yeah. About forty five minutesbefore dark, they made their way back
to um to the camp and starteda fire. Now, this is a

(09:58):
quote from him. On a ridgeabove of me came the most horrifying sound
I've ever heard. It started outlike a woman's scream and continued on into
a deep, guttural growl. Itlasted maybe forty five seconds, then it
seemed to fade away. So Iwonder if they growl. I just think
that the sounds and calls of theof this Yahoo, you know, a

(10:18):
Bobcat. When it's when it screamsand it sounds like a woman screaming,
it's terrifying. I just think thatwhen when you hear the call and it
says Yahoo and it's named Yahoo,I think anything that comes out of its
mouth ever, is like a Pokemon. That's exactly what I was thinking.
You know, if it grows,it goes yeah. Yeah. You know

(10:39):
when it screams, is it's superhigh scream yeahoo. I just that's why
I ambition. Yeah, and itis into a little battle. Yeah.
Yeah, it's like Yahoo Yahoo.You've got four different attacks that you can
use from. Oh, well,there's a whole family and all the Rasa
is Yahoo. You know Yahoo?Yeah, yeah, Well there happen reports
about them traveling in family these differentsizes, so people assume that it's you

(11:03):
know, kids, so they travelin packs and families. You think if
you name a Yahoo, then itjust starts saying that name instead, maybe
name like Frederick. I don't know, Frederick. I don't know what you're
saying. You like Pokemon Yahoo YooYoho yoho yo. Now the second sighting

(11:28):
that I have here is also happenedin November, but in two thousand and
seven. Now, this witness wasdeer hunting in the New River Gorge in
Fayetteville, West Virginia. It wasevening with about two hours of daylight left
when movement was noticed about sixty yardsfrom the gorge. From their position,
they use their guns scope to geta better view of the moment movement.

(11:52):
That moment movement when a large handappeared from the side of a large popular
poplar tree with its palm against thetree. And this is a quote.
Then to my surprise, I sawa head peek from around the large tree
and two large eyes I fixed onthe on the head of a creature I've
never seen before, and I'm ahunter, have been since I was eight.

(12:18):
Now, I guess the bigfoot blinktwice without looking at them, and
then stepped back behind the tree,and then I have another blink. Is
okay? One has helped me.I have another quote from this guy.
I viewed it for about twenty secondswhile it was looking at me. My

(12:39):
mind just couldn't figure out what itwas, and I knew what it wasn't.
I had no desire to shoot it, and very well could have,
but my mind and body almost seemedto be in a state of shock while
viewing it. I had to crossnear the location on the trail out of
the woods, and I was terrified, even when with a loaded deer rifle.

(13:00):
My hair stood on end. WhenI realized that I would have to
go towards the location to get outof the woods, I called my uncle
as soon as I got to myjeep and told him he believed me.
I am very odd. I ama very honest man and would never lie
about this. The thing is,though I never heard it run away or
move through the leaves, and youcan hear movement from like two hundred or

(13:24):
more yards off in these woods.It's like it just disappeared. I think
it was getting ready to throw alog at him. That's why he had
to drip on that tree. Hewas finishing up. He was he was
prepping a log, charging up.So when he saw that hand stuck out,

(13:48):
it wasn't like it was like,oh man, It was like yahoo
the tree and he stuck his headaround looking to see if anybody was there,
because he was like, this isgonna be bad and saw him it's
like, oh was and then tookoff what you said, jokes pinished it

(14:11):
off and ran away. Yeah,he was like, oh yahoo, and
then yahoo and then the third oneI have is from November again, I
don't know in twenty thirteen. Um, and this was in Fayette County is

(14:33):
here, Ti, Dave, thanksfor not doing that directly. Uh.
This witness says it was close tosix and a half to seven feet tall,
with dark brown to red hair.It had a very smooshed face,
almost a flat nose, and itsarms stretched past its waistline. It appeared
to be eating the remains of adeer. Hyeah, right, my son.

(14:58):
It's good for podcasting that my sonkeeps pointing at me whenever you describe
a Yeah. Well, you knowit's yeah, six feet tall, big,
you know, big eating deer.Yeah yeah, it's like my dad.
Just like dad. It's interesting beinga member every time. But the
number of years between them, it'snot like and it seemed correct me if

(15:20):
I'm wrong. Was Fayette every time? Right, yep? Fayette County,
Fair County. So it's not likeif it was a you know, teenagers.
Well there was too many years forit to be right. Yeah,
yeah, very weird. Yeah,and I think it was always like near
Thanksgiving. It was always like theend of remember there's some good smells happen

(15:43):
in that time year. Well,the third one he was eating a deer,
so give some thanks somehow, that'sright. He was just like yeah
who yeah, who given thanks?M And then after that is when he
gripped onto the tree to do yourbusiness. Okay, I get it,
I get it. Maybe you shouldhave a beer. I don't think the

(16:07):
sober things. No, Oh,is it time for Daniel Boone? It
is so um Daniel Boone. We'veall heard of this guy. Isn't hen
famous wearing the raccoon skin cap?So so much for that already ruined.

(16:27):
Well, this guy too was famous. Um, but he claims that he
shot and killed h ten foot fiveinch beast, and he didn't refer to
it as a yahoo now. Andit took me a while to find the
story because what I kept finding onthe internet is this story about Daniel Boone

(16:48):
being at like a pub or something, and I don't know if he was
given like a little bit of alecture, but after that people are like,
hey, tell some stories. Sohe started telling this story about how
he fought this ten foot five inchcreature, and then some dude laughed and
yelled impossible, which upset Danny Booneand he refused to finish the story and

(17:15):
made everybody leave. He got extremelybutt hurt by having someone call him out
for telling a tall tale. Butdamn, the story goes later than this
guy left and some other people cameback and convinced him to tell the story.
And he was like, yeah,as long as that guy was here,
I wasn't going to tell it.When the one guys but he's not

(17:37):
here, well great, you're aboutto hear some honey. And then I
could. Every story I found wasthat. I was like, well,
tell me the story. I wantthe honey, right. Well I did
finally find it and it is adoozy. So Daniel Boone and his son
were out in the woods and theywere tracking some Native Americans. I don't

(17:59):
think they to do good things,but so they were kind of separated to
when their tracking thing and he hearda shot ring out. Quh. He
knew was his son's gun in anotherone. So two shots. So he
runs in the direction of the soundof the gunfire and what he sees is
this this giant of a man umkind of walking towards his kid, and

(18:23):
the giant creature with one hand grabshis kid, with the other hand grabs
the gun, strips the gun,throws it to the ground, and then
starts beating his kid on the groundlike picking up. It's kind of like
what the hawk did. Yes,So Daniel Boom he fires his gun,

(18:44):
hits this creature luckily in the eyeball. This creature falls down. He rushes
over, checks his kid. Hiskid's kind of unconscious, but eventually he
comes to tells his dad, like, I shot him twice in the in
the left breast. So Daniel Boone'slike, well, let me check.
So he sees the two holes andthen but it didn't hit the heart,

(19:07):
and then they came out the back. Now some of the story says almost
like the bullet went around the heart. Okay, I think that sounds weird.
So why he was checking him?And I guess he started cutting and
open he was checking it. Hedidn't. He found that the creature didn't
have ribs or rib cats, buthe had like solid bone plates. I

(19:30):
have a theory, but he describesit as kind of like pale yellow with
long yellowish hair, small eyes,a thick nose, big hands and feet.
And then him and his kid gotsome sticks out and started, you
know, measuring, laying him outhow tall was and when he got to
town and they measured the sticks andthey're like ten feet five inches. Now

(19:56):
there's some some to resting details.Yeah, that sound maybe question made up
well, And and think of ittoo, if assuming that whole thing is
true. They were firing muskets,right, seventeen hundreds that would have been
musket Yeah, so I guess I'mnot an expert. Yeah I was.

(20:18):
Yeah, I was just thinking musketfires were never looking up they were,
they were never terribly accurate, anda musket ball, well that's the thing.
Not well, I have to lookup what kind of guns that were
using because he hit him right inthe eyeball, and Daniel Boone's like,
it's lucky idea because it seems likeI wouldn't been able to penetrate h anywhere
else. Fortunately I hit him inthe eye. Yeah, So I don't

(20:41):
think you could be accurate the musket. Well, I'm thinking that if it
hit him, depending on the angleof hit him or something like that,
it could have looked like it hadgone around because the musketball is gonna move
in air or when it hit something. Okay, okay, so it's not
like the heart was giving off field. Yeah, but and who knows and

(21:02):
musket they were never terribly strong gunseither, so I mean, although it
did say it pierced through them allthe way, Yeah, came out the
back. I don't know. Well, I have a potential theory for that.
But Dave, you had something,you had something. I have to
look up the date of that hedid that. But see the model seventeen

(21:26):
musket. Okay, so yeah,still muskets seventeen hundreds. Okay, quick
question, So you're talking about likea musket, like a musket musket,
like an old fashioned one. Yeah, in this case, muscription reads smooth
boor single shot flintlock face musket.Uh you know so well? You're telling
me it is this kid. Okay, shot the big foot dude. Big

(21:52):
foot dude starts running at him.Okay, reloads it will like this giant
musket. That how long did ittake to reload? Must well before anybody
email? Is how done we areto what guns were? We don't.
I don't know if it was thekind of musk where they reload or a
flint lock. I guess where theyI mean, are you like see I

(22:12):
don't know. Are you packing itdown with like a little with this big
stick? Yeah? I do knowthat if you were a soldier, you
were expected to be able to fireoff three to four shots a minute,
so you know, I guess ifyou're a hunter, you're probably able to
reload quickly as well. So callit, you know, fifteen twenty seconds.
Yeah, it's it's still a lotof time. But if the you

(22:34):
see a ten foot creature at goodyou probably have time to before it gets
to it. That's a good pointbecause if that thing is coming at full
speed, he's coming at you prettyquick. He's have to be a quick
reload. Yeah. See, Idon't picture it coming at full speed.
It's one of those. It knewit was strong and more powerful. This

(22:59):
uber. Oh the imminent death.I'm gonna kill you anyway. Yeah.
So Daniel Boone this says he hada forty four caliber Kentucky long rifle.
Okay, what does that mean?Oh, and he caught his gun old
tick liquor, boasting that he couldshoot a tick off an animal without hurting
the beast. Okay, that's thelies, that's that's that's okay. But

(23:23):
that does call to the point thathe does consider himself a marksman. Yeah
yeah, old tick Liquer. Wow, I gotta use that name on something.
Every time he missed, he's like, oh, well I hit the
tick. Okay. So so Ihave something that was let's see, moving

(23:52):
along, moving along? Okay?Yeah. So oh wait, I want
to I want no, no,I want to feel no. I want
to be able to kick it overtoday. Oh sorry, sorry sorry.
So in telling the story, hecalled the creature a yahoo because he got
the reference from one of his favoritebooks, goll Ever's Travels and Now Dave

(24:17):
take it away. Nice Colver's Travels. Um, it's a book. Written
by Jonathan Swift. I believe it'sseventeen oh seven, could be wrong on
that, and it's early, andit's a it's actually um supposed to be
like a satire, but it's aninteresting story of a guy, if you

(24:37):
haven't read it before, guy whotravels the world and encounters the first book
he encounters very small creatures. Secondbook he encounters giants kind of thing.
And in the fourth book he encounterstwo races. One is a horse race
and one are Yahoo's and Yahoo's arelike thuggish, crude, uneducated, just

(25:00):
beasts of humans. And it wasto the point where Gulliver actually started to
see all humans as yahoo's and wouldstart to when he was rescued from this
island. He would assume all humanswore Yahoo's and lash out at them and
type that kind of a thing.So the question is where did this term

(25:23):
come from? How did Jonathan Swiftcome up with this? It actually looks
like it was a from folklore fromthe sixteen hundreds of from Portugal, where
women would who were shipwrecked would washup on islands inhabited by apemen and be
forced to cohabitate and create half manhalf ape beasts. Which then sailed across

(25:49):
the world and ended up in NorthAmerica and ended up in Australia. And
so that's why there's the commonality betweenthe why in Australia we had the Yawi,
yes, and in North America withthe Yahoo So you're what you're telling
me is that shipwrecks they'd washed ashore, the women, these apelike creatures would

(26:14):
mate. But yet also you're tellingme then they would build ships and sail.
So actually there's there's stories of thewomen they would try to escape and
when they would escape somehow they wouldget on a ship to get off these
islands, and they would see theape men eating their offspring, the half

(26:36):
breeds, and um. So it'sbelieved then that the women were actually taking
their kids with them. Oh um, you know that reminds me of something
Nash that you were talking about earlier. Uh, but with the offspring,
it wasn't a good ending for theoffspring, right right. That's me kicking

(26:56):
it over to you. Oh sothis so yes, so I came across
It was like a it was anaccount that's in a book called Uh this
was this This quote is is tough. Okay, it's a It was in
a book in nineteen fifty five.This is told by Nancy McDaniel of Big

(27:18):
Leatherfood Creek, Perry County, Kentuckyto right Perry County. This track,
yeah Yeah is told to a LeonardRobert, who published it under the title
The Origin of Man in in Southfrom Hell for Certain in nineteen fifty five.

(27:40):
Okay, that's that's the footnote.You're doing good so far. Yeah,
I can't wait till you get intothis. This is this is gonna
be rough. Okay, this isgonna be rough. And I half the
kind of the only way I foundthat I could make any progress in this
quote is I have to slide intoa character to do it. Okay,
I'm so excited for this. Lostenup a little bit here. Okay.
Once upon a time there's a manlaying out and he went to a cave,

(28:06):
and he was laying out in there, and the yea, yeahowake,
come and throw the deer into him. Something would come every day and throw
a deer into him and leave outon that on time. That yeayhow okay,
told him here stay character on timenow, yea hoow come and got

(28:30):
down in there with him and notlong after that she had a kid.
Okay, so there was procreation.That's a translation. Okay, all right,
So what I'm hearing is there wasa dude in the cave and a
female yahweh Yahoo Yahoo was bringing indeer to feed the guy, and eventually

(28:52):
brown chicken, brown cow got it. Okay. Then one time he took
a notion to leave her, andhe would go to leave, and she
wouldn't let him go. She madehim come back. Finally he got out,
and he got on a ship goingacross the waters, and he got
started and rowed off and left her. And she stood there at Hollard and

(29:17):
screamed after him. And when she'dand when she'd seen he'd gotten away from
her, and she couldn't couldn't gowhy she tore the baby in two and
throw it a half at him,not laughing about the baby getting no,
no, no, But that isa quote that that is in this book.

(29:38):
And so that and I was innineteen fifty five, and I'm hoping
that the people who were so thenthe Yahoo yes got so mad and tore
their kid in half and threw onein him and she kept the other half.
I don't know what they did withthe other half. I don't know,
but it's an odd tale that endsin a really unsuspect acting way.

(30:00):
This all happens in North and WestVirginia, right, that was like an
m night Shamlan twist, you see. Yeah. Yeah, And so this
is talking about the Yea because itactually say it says the name specifically in
it was told in so whoever sawthis, it didn't the quote didn't give
a location to where it was,but it was told in Kentucky and then

(30:23):
went into this book, uh TheOrigin of Man in South from Hale for
Sartin. It's hell hyphen f eR hyphen s A R t I n
Hail for Sartin. Yeah. Yeah, so there's that. So so we
have some tales of the yahweh.So it kind of a different thing,

(30:49):
way different the Yahoo. So wehave him Dave, what's the yahyahway?
What is yahwah? Is Christ?Yeah, yeah, it's a very different.
And I thought it was like asexual term. I thought it was
like a weed thing or something,yeah, or a weed thing. Yeah

(31:11):
yeah. Now, so so wehave some tales of the yayhoo um just
visiting people in the woods, grippingthe trees, prepping logs, eating whole
pigs. Right, so some ofthe good, some of the stuff isn't
so bad, you know, wholecountry roads, mountain mamas, order deal
yeah, yeah, yeah, andthe and then eating whole pigs, Tearing

(31:34):
small children in half. I don'tknow if that child was a hybrid child
or if it was a Yahoo childor I don't know, but can you
imagine just chearing your kid in halfand throwing it at a guy? That's
interesting, That's yeah. So Idon't know. But what I do know

(31:59):
is that the yea Who is surprisingin many ways that you wouldn't expect.
Okay, there you go. That'sthe moral, that's the world story.
If you see one, don't comearound one. Um. I do have
some other interesting facts that, youknow. It kind of made me think

(32:20):
of some other possible theories about theyea Who. But maybe I don't know
when it's time to talk about those. I mean, I mean, you
just mentioned it, so you wantto talk about it, right, Okay,
So just go this had happened inthis is in West Virginia. Oh,
here we go. We all knowthere's a lot of crazy stuff that

(32:45):
happens in West Virginia. A lotof crazy stuff that happens in Virginia.
So we have what Bermuda triangles inless Virginia. Don't they have a Bermuda
triangle? Well, I mean becausethe Bermuda triangle will be specific to the
area, well, the Bermuda,but they don't have well they have they
have a triangle area. They havea West Virginia triangle somewhere. Triangle yeah,

(33:08):
yeah, and they have aliens,the cryptids, they are the caves
there, the mamoth what they calledmammoth kegs. Isn't the did you say
the mammoth kegs? No, thatsounds like a party I want to go
to. Yeah, isn't. Isn'tthe stretch of road in West Virginia that
one stretch of road that you're neversupposed to drive on? Um country road?

(33:32):
Binding? Yeah, you might maybe, Okay. I always I always
look to the to the Archive ofKnowledge Alicia for validation, and she's not
giving me anything, which means you'reprobably wrong. Yeah. I could be
wrong. It could be wrong,But I'm sure there is a spooky road
in West Virginia. You don't tryit down? Are like all the roads
spooky in West Virginia. Maybe.Yeah. So so what I was thinking

(33:57):
was like, okay, well holdon, we all know this is this
was like, okay, so there'sa lot of odd stuff in West Virginia.
Why so I was like, okay, well there could be some maybe
there's a lot of UFO encounters inWest Virginia. In fact, since nineteen
seventy four, there's been ninety thousandobservations of Yeah, of those, they
say about ten percent or not I'msorry, five percent um have been dismissed

(34:27):
for one reason or another. Butthat left about five to six thousand of
them as not dismissed, so validatedthrough it right out of ninety four thousand,
Yeah, yeah, five six thousandthey could not dismiss. But the
ones they could dismiss, But wasn'tit they dismissed five percent? What did
you? Would you say they dismissedlike five percent or ninety five percent?
No? No, no, ninetyfour ninety five percent of them were dismissed.

(34:51):
Okay, yeah, five percent didnot dismiss which is about five thousand.
I mean, I can rewind it, but I'm pretty sure you sa.
Out of that five percent, we'redismissed or something like that. Yeah,
yeah, five, we're not dismissed. And that was in twenty twenty
one. So I said, thatwas about five thousand and twenty twenty one,

(35:13):
so about six thousand sidings have notbeen dismissed. So I so I
was like, okay, well weall know that Bigfoot is really just a
garbage man for the aliens. Okay. So I was like, well,
well, let me take a quicklook, and so I pulled up hot
spots radiation hot spots in West Virginiaand oh, mama, if you live

(35:35):
in West Virginia, you need toleave. They're everywhere. There's a town
called Minden in West Virginia that hada population of twelve hundred people, small
little town that since nineteen seventy oneor another people the residents have been dying
off due to cancers and poisoning fromradiation and knowledge. Only about two hundred

(35:57):
and fifty people left in this townand they have like lesions and it's a
bad situation. So what I'm thinkingis that maybe one of the reasons why
there are so many sasquatch yea,who's other creatures in there trying to help
out is the amount of crap thatthe aliens have put in West Virginia,
which would explain all the other cryptidsand oddities that we've seen there. In

(36:22):
fact, I pulled up an EPAmap which is really exciting. I could
the scientists from an Independence day.Yeah, yeah, yeah, and it's
and it's not good podcasting. Butno not at no, no, no,
no no. But the all thered dots on that mop, on

(36:42):
that mop that, yeah, areare hot spot. So what Nash is
doing on a podcast, He's showingeverybody at the table this map map of
West Virginia and radioactive hot spots inthis on this map that I would imagine
that those are also hotspots for signingsof Bigfoot and the Yahoo's and probably close.

(37:05):
But do you have proof of that? Yes, Okay, they're there
to clean it up. They're don'tdoing a very good job. That's why
these these hotspots will exist. No, I'm asking you all those radiation out
spots, do you have proof thatthere's sightings at every one of those locations?
That's from the EPA. That's anEPA. It's did you cross reference

(37:25):
at with the bf R O.I'm not a batman. It's an abbreviation,
so it must be true. It'sgot to be true. It's from
the EPA. So so what I'mjust trying to say is that I believe
that the ya who is there totry to help out with regular bigfoots,

(37:45):
maybe that would contribute to why hehad the internal shielding around his rib cage
that would stop the bullets from wayback when, is because he was there
to pick up the radioactive garbage that'sin West Virginia and has been there since,
trying to do a good job butjust not well. We have two
stories where Bigfoot picked up Danny Booth'sson and was smashing them on the ground

(38:07):
and another one where I who rippedher baby in half. Son. Don't
know if they're there to help anybody, well, they do it, that's
why they were placed there. AndI did come across a few things talking
about they do seem like don't messwith me, I won't mess with you.
Where they've thrown rocks, but notyou know, and hit anybody kind

(38:28):
of like just hey, back off, get out of this area like they're
trying to because we don't want tohave to Loki smash you right right,
you're yeah, because they're trying todo their job, but we're just interrupting
them from doing their job. Maybethose kids were alien love child. There
you go say that's it, Yougot it. M Maybe the kids they
ripped in half were radioactive. Thatcould be a two and that's why.

(38:52):
Or if it was an alien,then it made two babies. Oh,
I like huh. So would notto take it fifteen minutes to explain what
what could have been done at five? So go ahead, day right?
Right? So another UM reference toYahoo's. UM. I don't know how

(39:14):
many people are familiar with David Berkowitz, son of Sam. In his letters
to the police, he referenced,I'll give a small quote here, UM,
I love people. I don't belongon earth. Return me to the
Yahoo's. UM. Yeah, okay, so it was um. He would
taunt the police with these letters.And this one, you know, he's
basically saying that he's this is oneone of the ones where he was talking

(39:38):
about the dog being you know,telling him to do it type of thing,
and that he's not trying to doit, but he's this. I
think the references from the Jonathan Swiftversion of the crude uneducated, you know,
return him to that. Yeah,okay, yeah, and uh.

(39:58):
In some areas they also refer totroublemakers is h Yahoo's hey you Yahoo's you
yea, who's get out of here? Yeah, because they're like my grandma
call me at one time. They'rejust trying to do a job. They're
just trying to their job, andwe keep getting in their way. I'd
be frustrated to I wouldn't tear akid in half, but I would be
frustrated. Yeah, like, comeon, I'm trying to save your lives

(40:20):
here, come on, do myjob. Wow. Um one other quick
story. Oh sure, so thishas nothing to ned with Yahoo's but going
to the whole um. I likewhere. I like where you're at the
early American Frontier Explorers. Uh.You actually referenced him earlier with the Coonskin
cap. Davy Crockett, he's,you know, probably the other famous I

(40:45):
didn't make a mistake. I wasjust setting up this story right thirty minutes
later. Ye, really a genius. So Davy Crockett also had a big
foot encounter. This was in Texas. It was not a Yahoo anything like
that, but this was interesting.When I saw this, I thought it
was really cool and I don't knowthat we would talk about it in any
other episode, so the U wantedto bring it up that So, if

(41:05):
you know about Davy Crockett, hedied at the Alamo Um and when he
saw his bigfoot, he actually thebigfoot talk to him and said, you
need to get out of Texas.You're going to die here, and basically
gave him forewarning of don't you knowstay and everything. I don't think we've
ever run into bigfoot talking before,especially not in a you know, giving

(41:30):
a forewarning, you know, harbingerto the death type of So I just
thought that was really cool. Also, you know, just like Daniel Boon,
you know, both of the biglegends in US history have bigfoot stories.
Now here's the question, do youthink the prophecy is why he died
in you know, because you knowhow there's all those stories of they get

(41:52):
the prophecy and they try and preventit and in doing so cause the prophecy.
Right, yeah, it's really goingto make your noodle think about that
one. That's right. Why wetake a break and we'll be right back
with more thoughts on that, assome other shenanigans. We'll be right back

(42:13):
and we're back, all right,the Yahoo, the Yahoo, the yawe
ye. However you say it's it'sa big foot. That's why you're hearing
man Yahoo. Uh the Eddy Unlessyou have a couple of little tibbits,

(42:35):
Steve, I have something I wantto kick over that is from when you
talk about the the swift guy.Okay, the writer right ses earlier,
earlier, when we were talking,before I was recording, I said Taylor
Swift right, which is completely wrong. I wish I would have said that,
you know, in real time onthe air, right, pretty funny,

(42:58):
um lish sure. Uh So MountainMonsters, Uh, they have two
episodes, um where they're looking forthe Yahoo. But I think you said
that they mentioned it a lot orthe Mountain the Mountain Monsters show, Yeah,
it's not mentioned a lot. Itwas hard to find stuff that wasn't

(43:19):
associated with Yeah. Yeah. Uhso basically what they were able to find
is some trail cam photos and that'sabout it. Um at least that's they
didn't find Yahoo. They just foundthese um pictures of Yahoo. U.
The one picture that I looked at, I was like, mmmmm, I

(43:42):
think they're I don't know, itlooks like missed or whatever. But uh.
A person also has claimed to havecaught a trail cam photo of a
supposed female Yahoo carrying a baby onher back, which can then be Wow,

(44:04):
it's got a callback. I wasthinking more along the lines of how
did you know it was a female? I don't know, right, Yeah,
do the yea who's have you know? Like some yea who's how about
those ye who's you got there sonsout? Or maybe it's an assumption because

(44:27):
of the child on the back.Well, but anything could be carrying anything.
It could have been in parts too. It could have been cleaning up
yeah radio about her husbands, youknow, yeah, I mean yeah,
it could have been upset cleaning upradiation. There was a small child that
had been pulled in a half.You got to clean up all that stuff.
Sure. Yeah. There was anotherone there with just a newspaper sitting

(44:49):
on like a chair. Good job, good job, jazz guy. Quickly,
you can never have two nashes onthe show. Doesn't work back in
the hardtat just sitting there supervising everybody. Yea, not doing any work.
Um So dave I mentioned that DanielBoone had called it a Yahoo based on

(45:12):
his favorite author, Right mister swiftUm Taylor Taylor because of the book Oliver
Travels Now and interesting tidbit is whenhe was out in the woods campaign with
his crew, his boys, they'dsit around and read I'm assuming somebody would
read it, just read it outloud the campfire. They just reading Goliver's

(45:34):
Travels Collivers Travels. Uh, what'sso funny? Woman? Nothing? Keep
going? What else would they doin front of the campfire? Mark,
I don't know why it's so like, well, you're trying to make it
like I'm just thinking that if you'retrying to make it wrong now if Cole
dude's reading Goliver's Travels, I wasjust thinking that if you're out with your

(45:55):
buddies and you would do it often, might as well. There's no radios
or anything a book. What onearth are you talking so long? Okay,
thank you a little anyway, Iwas just saying. When they were
out in the Middle West Virginia camping, yeah, hunting, doing ever at

(46:17):
night, they would read. Ohthey were doing some terrible stuff Native Americas,
yes, but they would just sitaround and read gull Over Travels.
Found that an interesting little tibet Icame across. Yes, that's all I'm
trying to say, Nashes, I'mnot the one implying stuff. Yeah,
I mean there's a story alongside that. Uh, not gonna repeat it on

(46:39):
air, but they did terrible thingsto Native Americans and they were kind of
joking about it using the terms fromgulliver travels um and it actually yeah,
it ended up that the location theywere at got renamed to based on this.
It became a location from the book. That was the point of my

(46:59):
story. That's because they were readingit. They're into it. Yeah.
The wine Creek, right, andSamarias were named from things from the book.
Right. Yeah. Yeah, Soit's you know, it's it's interesting.
Yeah, that's that's how they wereyou know, that's what they were
doing with spare time, and andthat they enjoyed this that much. It's
unfortunate the things that they did,other than potentially fighting the Yahoo. So

(47:22):
m all right, any last thoughtson the Yahoo sure? Uh. In
Appalachian folklore, these creatures, theYahoo's were referred to as old men of
the mountain, and they were thoughtof as lucky omens, and they were

(47:43):
believed to keep black bears away fromthe lives livestocks, so just a random
Yeah, there's reports where they weregetting into vegetable gardens dealing pigs. I
know, it's kind of lucky inthe sense of if you saw one and
it didn't kill you, all right, that's a good omen. It's a
good omen. I didn't die today. Or maybe it's like choosing sides,

(48:07):
you know, like some people thatlikes and okay, I'm with you,
yah who Speaking of Yahoo's our listener, Kevin Ja dropped, Uh, this
little tidbit in our Facebook group.Yes, we have a Facebook group.
If you're not part of it,joining because right now, Uh, well,

(48:27):
Kevin Jay is asking a lot aboutmovies, so that's always fun to
be part of that little thread.And as a fan of movies, I
thought it'd be fun to talk aboutyou know, we just talked about Bigfoot
the Yahoo it's that would fall intothe monster category. So one of Kevin's
posts was about what is your favoritemonster movie? Now? He had,

(48:49):
uh rules everything everybody has rules,parameters. He's not talking alien, he's
not talking ghosts strictly monsters like whereits vampires, Bigfoot, but Mott Frankenstein,
the Mummy, monsters. So Ithought it would be really fun to

(49:13):
talk about a few of our favoriteHopefully, if you've never seen him out
there, you go rent it,go rent it and streaming. That's how
you have to go to block andgone. So I want to actually start
with little Nash Evin. I'm curious, since you're younger than the rest of
us, uh krusty people distable,where is your favorite We're not very good,

(49:39):
we're young. Um, what isyour favorite monster movie? You know,
that's a good question. That's howsomebody who doesn't know what they want
to say starts. I'm gonna uhgnash you over here are right away because
I haven't thought this through yet.Okay, see monster movies, not see

(50:01):
I don't know that to me.I now I know that Kevin didn't appreciate
my answer. I gave a coupleanswers, but they were all the movie
had aliens. He was saying,he was not, that's a separate question.
This is a monster movie. Istill think it's a monster movie.
Oh. He also said no Kaiju. Yeah, yeah, yeah, because

(50:23):
things like that. The first thingI was gonna go to was Godzilla,
and then I finished. As soonas I saw that, I was like
Godzilla and then it's its own subgenre of the monster category. Yeah,
so I leave that, but monsterseven classic, Uh fine, I'll go.
I was gonna say I can go, Dave, you go, because
you don't even like I do.So maybe this doesn't count. But I

(50:44):
would call out Pitch Black. That'sa great movie, but it's not gonna
qualify why under Kevin rules. It'slike those monstrous creatures. I mean,
maybe they're alien because it's in outerspace, but it's not really alien it,
right? Is it alien to themsince everybody's living out in space?
Right? Yeah? All right,Kevin, we're letting this one go because

(51:05):
Dave rarely watches anything with monsters,and you know, and then you got
to accept the alien. No,I'm not Earth from Extraterrestrials is an alien
movie. But the yeah, theonly the only monsters on that planet,
on that entire thing were the humans. We're talking about monster movies. You're

(51:27):
getting ahead of yourself. Yeah.Um, the other one I've watched.
It's been years, so I don'tremember most of it, but the Relic
I remember liking the Relic. Ohyeah, is that where they find like
an artifact and it leads them tosomething ancient that's been buried. Yes,
okay, ye wasn't it like anape like monster? That? Yeah?
Um yeah wow that makes me think. Yeah, Kevin Jasins, you posted

(51:53):
this in the Facebook group. ButCongo? Would that be a monster movie?
Also Congo? Yeah, we're whenthey went deep in the Congo,
then they there was these eight creaturesbut they were like, uh, ancient
and mean and living in like likean old temple of some kind, and

(52:14):
they were just killing people. Thatwould be a monster. Um, I'll
help everybody out because I'll go.And I went with an old school staple.
Uh, the Lost Boys, LostBoys. This is like what from
nineteen eighty seven? I think,Uh, we're wet key for Sutherland.
We have easy way. I justgot warm in here. Oh my god,

(52:38):
what happened? I'm sorry? Ohyou know what you're not getting for
the next twenty four reference to KeeperSouthers. Um, yeah, it has
vampires, but very like kind ofabow eighties hip vampires. Uh. They

(52:59):
seem like they were super cool,but they were not that cool. Um.
You have the frog Brothers. Thesewere these two brothers. It was
a Corey and I forget the otherdude's name. No, no, Corey
Hayme was in it, but hewas right. I don't know who the
other guy now, I can tellyou when I was younger and watched this
so like I wanted to, Iwas like, I'll be a frog brother.

(53:20):
These guys Number one, we're workingat their parents comic book shop.
Who is weird. The parents werealways kind of like passed down the corner.
I think they were like hippies.Probably smoked too much weed, so
they were kind of just passed downin the corner. And the and the
brothers were just running the store.But they were all about They knew vampires
were in this town. And theyeven giving Corey Hame like some comic books

(53:42):
about vampires and trying to let himknow how to kill. I always thought
that was super cool. Uh.And then they try to get Michael,
uh, Corey Haymes brother, theyrecruit him over to the vampire side.
There's all but I don't want tospoil it if you haven't seen it.
Oh, there's a shirtless dude playinga saxophone. Tina Turners is that he
was just in concert. Believe hewas still he was in concert here just

(54:04):
a couple of months ago. Hewas still Hirtless. Yeah, I don't
know the show, but he's stillplaying the sax I have the h I
got the four K version, uhspecial edition whatever for Christmas and it's fantastic.
If you've never seen it, highlyrecommend it. It's a boatload of
fun as it's just using also withsome late eighties miss uh Lish. Yeah

(54:30):
I got more too. But otherpeople are monster movies. Well I put
in there, um, the Mistbecause it's terrifying. Did Kevin j let
that one slide? I think hedid? There are monsters, but they're
from another dimension. Well so thatthey're not aliens, great, but yeah

(54:52):
he let it go. Well,hey, look it's our show, so
you know what Kevin Sammy answer,we want to now? And then um,
somebody had mentioned The Descent, which, okay, love that movie.
It's terrifying as well, and Iwould say that's a really good monster movie

(55:13):
as well. Yeah, very good, like modern monster movie. Yeah,
just yeah, it's so good.Dave. You said you haven't seen it,
right, I have not. Irecommend it to you. As soon
as I heard the question, mymind went to that because I've heard so
much about it, okay, andthat's actually why I thought a Pitch Black
from a you know, you're kindof in the dark and you've got these

(55:34):
things attacking you, and it's thegroup and the yeah but yeah, right,
so you have a group of friendsthey're gonna go splunking and guess in
these caves. I think it's inthe Appalachian Mountain somewhere. It might even
be West Virginia. It probably isnot the one where they get trapped in
the cave. Yeah, yeah,yeah, but there's like damics amongst the

(56:00):
friends and how the friendships deteriorate whenit comes to like saving yourself to get
out of this cave and escape,and it's it's just really really a good
movie and it's at moments frightening.So Evan, now you have some food
for thought. What do you think? Um, So, this may straddle
the line of whether or not it'san alien movie. But Annihilation, the

(56:23):
movie Annihilation, that's an alien movie. It was Aliens came down with Natalie
Portman, the one where like thecomma comes down at the lighthouse and it's
a giant orb and it's like mutatingeverything. Yeah, giant comment that came
from space and the sounds like actuallythe mashers aren't from space. There are
mutations that were from Earth. Yeah, it's not really alien. The read

(56:45):
like that bear. The reason thebear was all messed up is because whatever
the alien ship was like, butthere's no like actual aliens coming down.
It was just the comment that startedit all. Hmm, that's the food
for thought. That's a good call. I also feel like arguing with the
teenagers not gonna be intert okay.Also all the best okay, so aside

(57:13):
from the real monsters aliens, I'mjust saying no I saw. I was
like, okay, well if Ican't do that, then my other love
for monster movies all came from monstermovies that were a little campy. So
number one Bubba ho tep Okay,Yeah, fantastic movie, mummies sucking souls
out of people's butts. Fantastic.Of course that's you. Yeah, you

(57:36):
would love that. Elvis, thatmovie Elvis and JFK. I mean he
can't beat it. I mean whowouldn't. Well, you got you got
Bruce Campbell, well and they andBruce Campbell's in one of my other ones.
I said three of them in Armyof Darkness, right, Yeah,
I should have thought, Yeah thatI can't believe no one mentioned evil dead.
That's right, Yeah, that's thatcounts right. That doesn't call it

(58:00):
like ghosts or zombies or that becausehe was thinking, sure, zombie.
I think he was trying to makeit another genre. Yeah, well when
it comes to zombies, the realmonster or the human that's exactly right,
exactly, that's the point. Andthen and then the last one was it
was a deep cut attack of theKiller Tomatoes. No, okay, you

(58:21):
did post that, and that's I'mlike, nah, it's always gotta be
something ridiculous. How is that likeone of your favorite monster movies? Because
one of George Clooney's first movies.It's it's it's it's in the same category
of killer Clowns from outer Space.I was thinking about that one exactly.
Yeah, and it's just some oneof those movies that you put on and
it's just so ridiculous and you loveit, and it's just it's so over

(58:45):
the top. At this point,I just I love it. I mean
it tracks. You're like Indiana Jone'sLast Create sucks, Twister sucks. Oh
my favorite moster. I'm talking aboutplanning and Zoning committee. The logistics of
Oscar's aide. But Attack of theColored Tomatoes. That's a good one.
All right. There you go.There's a couple of picks. I have

(59:06):
a modern a new one just cameout last year that I wanted to tell
everybody about. It's called Barbarian.Justin Loan's in it. It's you know
again who the monsters? And Ithink some of the biggest monsters on the
plant are just simply human beings,just like an alien. So this one
sets this one sets it up asthere's this AIRB and B that this woman

(59:34):
rants and it's double booked, soyou get all this tension between these two
people because he's looking a little suss. It's also the guy who played it,
he who was penny Wise. Hewas a Scars garden um. So
of course you're like, he waspenny Wise. I'm already suspect to this
guy. But it was it wasjust the is how we start to wonder,

(59:58):
like, but is that was thata Was that a slasher movie or
was it a monster movie? I'mgetting there. Uh, so you have
all this tension again. I stillthink humans are the biggest monsters. Um.
Because she's like, oh, thisguy trying to set me up.
Even there's a scene with a hey, would you like glass of wine?
And she's like no, so heopens up in front of her just so

(01:00:20):
he's like hey man, and hereally turns out to be spoilers. I'm
not gonna do spoilers, but justin case I say something I don't mean.
But the movie then continues forward.You start to see and we do
get like a weird monster, andthen we get a backstory. We see
like who was a monster? JustinLong's character who you're you know you see

(01:00:42):
him in movies and least comic relief. The reason he even has to go
to his own B and B airbnbin Detroit because he needs the liquidate assets
is because he's a monster. Iwon't spoil it anymore, but think Bob
Weinstein, Harvey Weinstein, Uh so, well Harvey, yeah, sorry so

(01:01:04):
but I mean, like so thisand it's called barbarian Uh but yeah,
I feel like two of the peopleactually were good A notable mention to that.
No, they weren't the monster.No, no, I mean the
movie was a notable mention to theto the to the post. But I
found it really good tense. Iknow my son's girlfriend thought it was funny.

(01:01:28):
Yeah, I didn't get that,but I guess some of the ridiculousness
when you see the monster what happens, But I highly recommend it's it's pretty
good take on a monster movie inmy opinion. Okay, yeah, all
right, Um, two others Ithought of probably my favorite now when you
said vampires, like, I guessI should have contemplated that before. But

(01:01:52):
from Dustl Don that is one ofmy favorites. Yes, yes, And
then another guilty pot but again anice thing in there you have monsters versus
monsters because the George Clooney and QuentinTarantino they're monsters. They're awful, awful
humans. Yes, yeah, andeverybody in the bar is Yeah. There

(01:02:15):
you get Tom Savini's in that he'sfrom of the bar specialty legend. The
practical effects were that's where he haslike the gun belt. It's like a
little pistol. Yep um suggestive.I'm sure. Um yeah, that's an
excellent choice. That's always Yes,she was fantastic. And then another guilty

(01:02:36):
pleasure movie, Rain of Fire.Okay, Um, this was Dragons Dragons
where they're they're Matthew Matthew McConaughey andChristian Bale where they're they're, um,
you know, digging in London andthey uncover a dragon nest and yeah,
and that changes the world. Amonster movie. Well, would it be

(01:02:58):
considered a kaiju because he said that, true, I considered Dragons Kaijuan.
Yeah, Kevin Jay Dave he saidno, Now, Evan, you had
one that you had mentioned about vampiresthat you thought was a good Boster movie,
did I? I don't remember this. I think you said Twilight?

(01:03:19):
Oh no, no, yes,the best Twilight. Yeah. And there's
also the nineteen eighties something classic LittleMonsters with Howard Mandel, a classic good
movie. I was gonna say,though, something is a monster not from
a monster movie. Also kind ofmight not be a monster. The monkey

(01:03:45):
scene from Nope, that was thatwas spooky. Yeah, yeah, the
monkey scene. Have you seen themovie Nope? Oh yes, where the
monkey goes crazy and becomes a monsteralien movie. We'll get to that we
talk about alien movie was yes,but but the monkey had nothing to do
with the alien. We're talking aboutmonster movies. Yea. But yeah,

(01:04:10):
yeah, so I agree with you. That's a great scene. Yeah.
Uh, Mark, and I watcheda movie, Um, it was dubbed
because I think it was made overin like Sweden or whatever. But I
actually really like it's really good.Happens with the troll at the end,

(01:04:30):
and a couple of things. Acouple of things in here other people's favorite
monster movies. Got Willie uh Franfrom Across the Pond training to be in
a strong man competition. Willie,crush it man, you can do that,
uh he said, Dog Soldiers,Yeah, which we reviewed on punch
Farm. Yeah, but it's uhwe've mentioned it's about a couple of times

(01:04:53):
and it's really it's it's a reallygood movie. It's a lot of fun.
Um. Someone mentioned. Oh,Willie also mentioned Underworld where it was
versus vampirees Um there was wolf.So cheesy to me, you know,
so the CG I was a littlewonky. What else do we got here?
Us Monster Squad mm hmm okay,Nash tell us I've never seen it.

(01:05:20):
You made a noise in the face, like I've never wanted us yet.
It never appealed to me. Really, yeah, I don't know that
one. Uh. A bunch ofkids meeting like the classic horror monsters that
doesn't appeal. That's like and they'rereal. They turned out to be real.
Where Wolf Frankstein Dracula, No,not really. Yeah, is that

(01:05:45):
the one where he kicks the wolfWolfman got nerds? Yeah, okay,
so I have seen that one.Is that the one where they go down
into the sewers and there's some badguys looking for some gold and there's another
monster down in there that helped himwith the full shuffle? No, m
hmm, that's a good movie,right. I will say that if we

(01:06:09):
had answered this question after March fifteen, twentieth something like that, I could
easily say, just from the trailersand Dragon's honor among the yeah, you
would pick that as your moster.Yeah, that would count. It looks
pretty good, looks good, Itlooks amazing. Stephen said, thirty Days

(01:06:30):
of Night. That's a that's afun one. Uh. And we were
talking about this at the pub,or maybe maybe I just thought we were
right now pointing to me and Evansalcohol. Obviously my figure went too far.
Yeah, as soon as I sawthere's a TV show called yellow Stone,

(01:06:56):
right, Kevin Costner, Kevin Costner, but the guy was a vampire.
Third Days a Night was in thefirst couple of seasons, and I
was telling you for sure, butas soon as I saw him, like,
oh, it's dude from Thirty Daysa Night. He's the one when
someone says something about God help me, He's like, God, no good
and it kills the dude. Yeah. And then Nash said Bubba Hotep attacking

(01:07:19):
the killer Tomatoes, Army nasty.We discover that. Uh, let's see
what other favorite, Oh the Wolfman, the original. Yeah. So anyway,
Yeah, there's a lot joined theFacebook group. You can see that
you would be part of these uhfun little things we're doing. Mostly because

(01:07:43):
Kevin Jenny is keeping it active.We suck at it and he's worried that
he might be making a shag Harbortoo if we talk about this thread.
But you did it, you didit. Um. Yeah. So Barbarian
relatively new movie I considered a monstermovie. Check it out. I think
it's really good. Uh. It'sby written and directed by one of the

(01:08:05):
members of The Whitest Kids, youknow, which was a comedy troupe,
uh like a skit show. Yeah, so it's very interesting. Somebody has
written so much comedy. We're like, kind of right, a pretty interesting.
Well, that's a movie that's like, uh, Jordan Peele. He's

(01:08:27):
crushing it and I think he's heartfor the Skit Show. But now,
oh my gosh, that dude's puttingtogether some fantastic movies. Would us be
a monster movie? Because it waslike clones of Everybody? Oh? Is
that the one where like there's likethe the other family and they're like in
red Yeah, and then they're they'relike orange jumpsuits. Yeah. And then
there's like the basement scene with likethe rabbits or something. Yeah, it's

(01:08:50):
really good. Would that be amonster movie? I don't know. I
don't know. I guess is howyou want to define what we're talking about.
You know, there's a good monstermovie that I've seen the trailers of
and I haven't seen it, theone where what Nick Cage is Dracula and
it's kind of like a comedy.If if we talked about this after that

(01:09:14):
movie came out, that would probablybe my favorite monster because Nicolas Cage did
you know in the movie uh ghostRider? Uh? They filmed it down
New Orleans. But again, NickCage, you know, we talked about
him at the Philadelphia Comic Con.I can't believe we didn't. We did
terrible research um. But on thatset he asked the director if he could

(01:09:36):
wear a voodoo mask. So andthe directors like yeah. So he put
on a paint like he painted avoodoo mask on him, put in contacts
to make his eyes look all blackto get into character for Ghostwriter for ghost
Rider. Oh dude, I loveNick Cage right. One of the best.

(01:09:58):
Yeah, one of the best transformationsend of all times, him in
front of the mirror when he firstturned into the ghost trap. You know,
it's funny about that movie though,like where his character had like a
Martini glass but it was full ofjellybeans, and that was like his after
stunt show, like wind down that. Yeah, just I think that was
Nick's idea. It was a bighit. We can go on all day

(01:10:21):
about Nick Cat. We went alittle too long winded on all that.
Let's just giving us a wrap upsignal. I give that signal. M.
I hope you enjoyed talking about mostermovies. We're gonna probably keep this
up moving forward. We'll keep itin the paranormal genre where we'll watch something

(01:10:43):
like well it could be the Conjury, It's something that would be related back
to true paranormal story or something that, you know, a movie about the
Wind to Go or anything like that, we might watch and review with you.
We'll let you know what it isso you can watch it before we
talk about it and then yell atus if you don't like our opinion,
because that's that's how you do it. And if you don't like it,

(01:11:05):
it's okay, let us know.But if you like the paranormal, you
probably like paranormal movies and I lovemovies, so we're gonna talk a little
bit more about them in the upcomingepisodes. All right, that's it.
We've rambled on forever. Anything else. We took such a long break over
the holidays. Then I feel likewe just want to keep talking on the
right, keep on going. Idon't think so. I think that's it.

(01:11:27):
That's it. Uh oh, Iyou know, I want to tell
somebody. I would tell everybody aboutthis. So this was a comment left
on our YouTube channel on the kinRoss Incident episode. Do these morons think
