Based on true events. In August of 1976, three teenagers driving an isolated road outside Whitehall, New York came face to face with a seven-foot creature with glowing red eyes. They did what no one in a monster story is supposed to do — they went straight to the police. And within days, the police saw it too. Trained officers. State troopers. Spotlights. Official reports. What happened on Abair Road turned a tiny Adirondack village into the Bigfoot Capital of the Northeast — a town that eventually passed a law making it illegal to harm the creature. But not everyone who met the Beast of Whitehall drove away with a story. Locals still speak of the ones the woods kept — and of a rifle found leaning against a tree, unfired. Join Carman Carrion for the true story of the Abair Road incident, the police officer who couldn't pull the trigger, and the town that chose to protect its monster. #Whitehall #NewYork #Bigfoot #Sasquatch #AbairRoad #DestinationTerror #Cryptid #BigfootSighting #Adirondacks #BigfootCapital #BeastOfWhitehall #CryptidEncounters #TrueHorror #RealTerror #ParanormalPodcast #HorrorPodcast #DarkHistory #UnexplainedMysteries #CreepyHistory #Eeriecast #CarmanCarrion #TrueStories #Unexplained #MonsterSighting #PoliceReport #SasquatchFestival #HauntedNewYork #Folklore #ListenNow #Spooky EXPLORE MORE SPINE-CHILLING CONTENT: Freaky Folklore: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/freaky-folklore Carman's Crypt (Original Horror): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Deadly Intent (True Crime): https://www.carman-carrion.com/ Destination Terror: https://www.eeriecast.com/podcasts/destination-terror SUPPORT THE SHOW: Patreon (Ad-Free + Bonus Content): https://www.patreon.com/c/CarmanCarrion Buy Me a Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/carmancarrion CONNECT WITH CARMAN: Website: https://www.carman-carrion.com/ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@CarmanCarrion Twitter/X: https://x.com/CarmanCarrion Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/carmancarrion/ SUBSCRIBE & REVIEW: Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/0uiX155WEJnN7QVRfo3aQY iTunes: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/freaky-folklore/id1550361184 Your support helps bring you more terrifying tales.

This episode of The Rizzuto Show spirals beautifully from wholesome weekend recap into full-blown suburban psychological warfare. You know… like every responsible daily comedy show should.Lern kicks things off with an annual hibachi pilgrimage complete with onion volcanoes, airborne chicken, mysterious yum yum sauce addiction, and a vegetarian teenager accidentally catching meat in her mouth out of pure social pressure. Honestly, hibachi is less “restaurant” and more “public performance art with teriyaki.”Meanwhile, Rizz discovers that the neighborhood children may officially think he's the mean old guy on the hill. After overhearing kids whisper “those are Mr. Rizzuto's dogs,” the gang conducts a full emotional autopsy on how years of HOA complaints, dirt bike feuds, poop-bag incidents, and aggressive radio storytelling may have turned him into the suburban cryptid of his subdivision.The solution? Obviously a bounce house festival called “Curmudgeon Fest 2026.”The crew also dives deep into the newest suburban panic sweeping America: grown adults stampeding Five Below stores to hoard “Neatos” and “dumpling” squishy toys before actual children can buy them. Tiny kids crying. Parents fighting collectors. Black Friday energy in Wildwood. Humanity thriving.Elsewhere in the chaos:Rafe accidentally spends his Saturday bonding emotionally with a stained-glass artisan named Dave while listening to Foghat in a basement.Lern delivers a passionate iced coffee complaint that somehow becomes a full societal discussion.Rizz warns everyone about a terrifying new AI Uber scam involving fake mess photos and cleanup fees.The gang discusses documentaries built entirely from bodycam footage and social media evidence.They debate whether single dads hosting sleepovers has unfairly become suspicious in modern parenting culture.Plus stories about weird dads from the 90s, mooning cops, NA beers, and the exact emotional danger of getting insulted while trapped in an Adirondack chair.Basically this episode has: neighborhood drama hibachi lore emotional damage weird toy economics suburban anthropology middle-aged confusion and one very wounded Blackstone grillIf you like sarcastic chaos, ridiculous conversations, and a group of adults turning tiny life moments into a full sociology documentary, congratulations — this daily comedy show remains medically unsafe for productivity.And yes… somebody absolutely compared Rizz to the Addams Family neighbor everyone warns their kids about.Another totally normal episode of your favorite daily comedy show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
One minute we're talking hibachi onion volcanoes and yum yum sauce rage… the next minute Riz is emotionally devastated because neighborhood kids apparently think he's the cranky old guy from every sitcom ever made. Welcome back to another completely normal episode of The Rizzuto Show — your favorite daily comedy show where chaos is not only expected, it's basically HR policy at this point.This episode starts with a beautiful weekend recap that somehow spirals into a full breakdown of suburban life. Lern and Tim hit hibachi for the annual “watch a stranger launch chicken at your face” tradition, Riz discovers his Blackstone betrayed him with a gas leak, and somehow the entire neighborhood has decided he's the villain from an HOA-themed horror movie. Meanwhile, Rafe absolutely refuses to let Riz recover emotionally after learning local middle schoolers refer to his house like it's the final boss level in a video game.Then things get even weirder when the show dives into the National Spelling Bee, where everyone quickly realizes they cannot spell basic words despite being fully grown adults with jobs and mortgages. “Diarrhea” nearly destroys the studio. “Separate” becomes a psychological warfare exercise. Lern fights bravely through America's most misspelled words while the rest of the gang contributes absolutely nothing helpful whatsoever.And because this is a daily comedy show, things naturally escalate into stories about teenagers shaving their heads for gas money, broccoli-haired dudes entering their buzzcut era, and parents realizing summer break may already be a mistake. Riz's son takes $50 to shave his head and immediately regrets everything, which honestly feels like the perfect metaphor for being young in 2026.Plus:The Three Song Challenge returns and listeners somehow struggle with bands literally everyone knowsA spelling bee breakdown nobody asked forTed Nugent tour updates because apparently that's still a thingReba McEntire appreciation hourDavid Lee Roth getting emotional talking about Van HalenMidwest brunch complaints escalate over iced coffee availabilityNeato toy hysteria sends grown adults into full Black Friday modeRafe delivers possibly the greatest Adirondack chair roast in radio historyRiz contemplates rebuilding his reputation with neighborhood children using bounce houses and hot dogsBasically, if you've ever wanted a comedy podcast that feels like your funniest friends yelling across a backyard barbecue while someone accidentally starts a grease fire nearby… congratulations. You found us.This episode of The Rizzuto Show contains neighborhood drama, emotional damage, fried rice, misspelled words, buzzcuts, weird parenting moments, and at least three people questioning modern society before 8am.

He was an ordinary man who saw something that mattered, took action, and committed himself fully to it.

In Liz Moore's The God of the Woods, the idyllic setting of the Adirondack mountains conceals something sinister. One child going missing is a tragedy–but two children–and from the same family is a disturbing pattern. A young investigator is pretty sure that the wealthy Van Laar family is concealing something, if only she can get close enough to the family to find out what they are hiding.

Sometimes the best Disney trips aren't the ones where you do the most… They're the ones where you finally slow down enough to feel it. This week on the podcast, I sat down with my longtime buddy Bubba—a true Geekin' family member—who came back to Walt Disney World after stepping away for a while… and had a trip that completely changed his perspective. And honestly… this one stuck with me. Planning a Trip? If you're thinking about planning your next Disney vacation and some Epic Universe… My wife Margita and our good friend Auntie Judy are the Travelin' Tiaras — your trusted Disney travel planners. Whether you're booking Walt Disney World, Disneyland, Disney Cruise Line, Universal, or beyond… They'll help you plan a smart, stress-free vacation from start to finish. Already booked?

And right now… there are great opportunities for upcoming travel, so it's a perfect time to start planning. Featuring Bubba Bubba has been part of this community for years—but this trip? This one was different. After going to Disney constantly for a stretch, he stepped away for a bit. And when he came back… everything felt new again. Not because the parks changed— But because he did. A Different Kind of Disney Trip This wasn't about rope dropping rides or stacking Lightning Lanes. This was about: Resort hopping at a relaxed pace Sitting in Adirondack chairs for 45 minutes doing absolutely nothing Trying new experiences like boating on Seven Seas Lagoon Enjoying quiet moments at places like Port Orleans French Quarter And that's where things started to shift. French Quarter—something he never expected to love—ended up being one of the highlights of the entire trip. Small. Peaceful. Walkable. Sometimes… that's all you need. Doing Less… and Getting More Here's the wild part: Bubba didn't even ride Guardians. Didn't ride Tron. Didn't chase every big attraction. And you know what? He didn't miss it. Instead, he leaned into: After Hours events to ride what mattered Unique experiences like Keys to the Kingdom Incredible food moments (yes… including that legendary cookie dough ice cream sandwich) And simply being present The Moment That Changed Everything But like always… the heart of the trip wasn't the rides. It was something deeper. During the trip, Bubba shared the story of losing his brother—the person who first introduced him to Disney through Beauty and the Beast. And then… one night… On a quiet carriage ride… They crested a hill just as Beauty and the Beast was ending across the water. Perfect timing. No planning. Just one of those moments. The kind that makes you stop and feel like… Maybe there's something more going on here. Why This Trip Meant More That moment set the tone for everything that followed. This trip became about: Connection Reflection Slowing down And appreciating where your Disney story began Because sometimes… Disney isn't about what you do. It's about what you feel while you're there. Final Thoughts This episode is a reminder that there's no “right way” to do Disney. You can go hard… Or you can slow it down… But if you're open to it— The magic will meet you where you are.

Loons are one of the defining sounds of an Adirondack summer, but protecting them takes far more than admiration from afar. In this episode of ADK Talks, we welcome back Denise Silfee of the Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation, along with Dr. Lizz Schuyler, the organization's new Senior Director of Science and Conservation, for a fascinating conversation about what loons can teach us about the health of Adirondack lakes.We talk about why loons are such powerful environmental sentinels, how decades of research are helping scientists track mercury and other pollutants, and why new concerns like PFAS and wake boat activity are getting so much attention. Denise and Lizz also walk us through loon banding, rescue efforts, the dangers of lead tackle and discarded fishing line, and the simple ways everyday recreation choices can make a real difference for wildlife.You'll also hear about new ways the public can get involved, from the annual loon census to a new community science effort focused on boat activity, plus summer events, guided paddles, and bird nerd trivia. If you love Adirondack lakes, wildlife, and the haunting beauty of a loon call at dusk, this episode is for you.What you'll hear in this episodeLoons spend five to seven months of the year at sea, and researchers still have much to learn about that part of their life cycle.Why loons matter as indicator species, and how mercury, acid rain, and emerging contaminants like PFAS can reveal the health of Adirondack waters.How loon banding works, what scientists learn from it, and why individual birds can be tracked for decades.Why lead tackle remains such a serious threat, especially when loons ingest hooks or jigs through fish.What wake boats may mean for loon nests, water clarity, fish habitat, shoreline erosion, and overall lake health.How listeners can help through the loon census, guided paddles, rescue reporting, and the new Tackle Box Ambassador program.Resources:Adirondack Center for Loon ConservationAdirondack Loon Center in Saranac LakeLoons on ADK TalksLoon Zoom eventsPaul Smith's VICGreat Adirondack Birding Celebration at Paul Smith'sProduced by NOVA

Scott Wolter, a forensic geologist, has spent 25 years following a trail of physical evidence — rocks, runes, bones, and buried artifacts — that leads somewhere most historians refuse to go.It starts with a stone pulled from a Minnesota farm field in 1898 and ends with a sealed jar dug up from the Adirondack wilderness last August.What's inside connects the Knights Templar, the Founding Fathers, the Talpiot Tomb in Jerusalem, and a scroll that may be the most significant document ever recovered.Scott doesn't speculate. He brings receipts. And after 25 years of following this trail, he's ready to share what he found — and what it means for everything we think we know.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pt4pT6PpCoQ
In the winter of 1980, the world turned its eyes to Lake Placid, New York, host of the Winter Olympics. But behind the pageantry, another structure loomed in the Adirondack woods. Built to house 1,800 athletes, the Olympic Village looked less like a dormitory than a detention center — because that’s exactly what it was designed to become. * Hosted by Zaron Burnett, Dana Schwartz, and Jason EnglishWritten by Zaron BurnettSenior Producer is Josh FisherEditing and Sound Design by Jesse NighswongerMixing and Mastering by Josh FisherOriginal Music by Elise McCoyShow Logo by Lucy QuintanillaExecutive Producer is Jason English For School of Humans, Producers are Emilia Brock and Edeliz Perez.
