Fred from the Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube Channel is back with two more amazing encounters from the wilds of Alaska.In the first account, Fred shares a chilling story from the early 1960s along the Nushagak River near Bristol Bay.Siblings “Agnes” and “Dean” were out scouting berry patches and looking for signs of moose when they heard deep, guttural bellowing coming from the dense brush. What followed was a terrifying encounter with an enormous, humanlike figure moving through the vegetation, pulling brush aside as it advanced.As the siblings tried to retreat toward their skiff, Dean fired at what appeared to be an approaching hand. Moments later, they spotted an even larger figure near the riverbank, this one described as having long, groomed-looking hair, before they escaped by boat.The second encounter takes us east of Day Harbor, where “Bill,” “Brad,” and “Connie” came face-to-face with something massive hidden in the brush. At first, they saw what looked like a huge black-haired head with dark skin staring back at them. Then it stood up.The group fled downhill, only to later discover a large log that appeared to have been thrown down the slope. Bill fired and believed he struck the creature in the leg, but the encounter escalated when a spinning piece of wood was hurled in his direction. Loud whistles echoed through the area, forcing the group to escape by dinghy. Fred also shares his appreciation for the witnesses who came forward, noting that names and map locations have been adjusted to protect their identities. These two unsettling Alaska encounters are packed with fear, mystery, and the kind of remote wilderness detail that makes Sasquatch reports from the far north so compelling.Subarctic Alaska Sasquatch YouTube ChannelEmail BrianJoin Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

In this episode, hosts Dirk Knemeyer and David Heron sit down with Mikey Gilder, the Chief Creative Officer of Avantress Entertainment, known for their hit actual play show Legends of Avantress and the massively successful $9 million+ Kickstarter campaign for Neon Odyssey. The discussion explores the intersection of actual play performance and "crunchy" game design, examining how the rise of shows like Critical Role has fundamentally shifted the way players approach tabletop RPGs. Mikey shares candid insights into the transition from hobbyist to professional publisher, the painful lessons learned while creating The Crooked Moon, and the philosophy of "inverting the pyramid" to provide players with more mechanical "buttons to press" while maintaining narrative freedom. Listeners will find a deep dive into the realities of high-stakes crowdfunding, including how to balance expensive merchandising like plushies and minis with the core integrity of the RPG book.

Today on Ascend: The Great Books Podcast, Deacon Harrison Garlick is joined by returning mentor Dr. Frank Grabowski—Third Order Franciscan, diaconate candidate, and Dean of Faculty at Holy Family Classical School—and Latin teacher Jack Drury for a rich discussion of Odyssey Books 15 and 16.Check out all our resources on the great books!Check out Dr. Grabowski's new Substack on the great books.The conversation explores Telemachus's maturation and homecoming, the poignant father-son reunion in the swineherd's hut, and the deepening bonds of loyalty with Eumaeus. Listeners will enjoy thoughtful reflections on xenia (guest-friendship), Theoclymenus the mysterious prophet, Helen's prophetic insight, Menelaus's gracious hospitality, and the growing threat of the suitors, all while tracking themes of thumos, divine guidance, and the slow unfolding of justice.With warmth, humor, and insight, the trio unpacks Homer's masterful storytelling—why Telemachus must become a threat, the nobility of the “lowly” swineherd, and the beautiful (and bittersweet) dynamics of recognition and reunion.

In this episode of The Experimental Leader Podcast, Melanie Parish speaks with Dr. Mel Rutherford about leading through crisis, identity, and organizational transformation, drawing from his book The Glass Cliff: One Trans Man's Leadership Odyssey.The conversation explores the “glass cliff” phenomenon, where leaders from marginalized groups are often placed into high-risk leadership roles during periods of instability. Dr. Rutherford shares lived experience from stepping into a department chair role during a crisis and reflects on how leadership is shaped under pressure.Together, they examine how effective leadership is built through slowing down, listening deeply, and aligning decisions with shared values. The discussion highlights consensus-driven leadership, compassionate accountability, and practical approaches for navigating uncertainty with clarity and integrity.Key themes include crisis leadership, values-based decision-making, trust-building, and leading complex teams through change while staying grounded in purpose and people.Dr. Rutherford's book is available here: http://experimentalleader.com/melrutherfordCatch his book tour here: https://www.melanieparish.com/events/Get free access to the Leadership Blueprint using the code "ODYSSEY": https://www.experimentalacademy.com/leadership-blueprintThis episode offers a grounded exploration of leadership under pressure and invites listeners to rethink how leaders are selected, supported, and sustained in times of uncertainty.
We begin this episode with Christian geeking out about some soccer match that's allegedly happening, as well as by talking about the amazing career that Jason is about to embark on. We talk about the reality TV show Jury Duty, and then spend some time discussing the upcoming Christopher Nolan film, The Odyssey, and its casting decisions in particular. We conclude with a lengthy discussion of the concept of Mythicism as applied to the New Testament.
When it comes to pushing through and achieving the unimaginable, our minds will give out well before our bodies. The question is: can you control the mind and overcome the doubts that it produces?After losing his leg in a motorcycle accident, Sam Maddaus made a decision few people would consider and even fewer would attempt: he set out alone to ride a bicycle 16,000 miles from Prudhoe Bay, Alaska to Ushuaia, Argentina using a prosthetic leg.Over the course of 21 months, Sam crossed continents, endured physical pain, navigated uncertainty, confronted isolation, and repeatedly faced moments that could have ended the journey. Instead, he kept moving.In this episode of 12 Geniuses, we explore not only the expedition—but the operating system behind Sam's extraordinary endurance.Sam shares how he prepared physically, mentally, and emotionally for an audacious goal with no guarantees. He reflects on the confidence required to begin, the role of identity after loss, and whether prior achievements mattered when facing a challenge of this scale.The conversation then turns to lessons every leader, founder, executive, and decision-maker can apply:How resilience is builtThe power and limits of self-talkWhat doubt sounds like in real timeHow to continue when quitting feels rationalDistinguishing between discomfort and painReinvention after disruptionWhat extreme adversity reveals about character, capability, and purposeHow small wins build on each other to create character, confidence, and exceptional resilienceThis is a conversation about endurance, adaptation, and discovering that your perceived limits may not be where you think they are.For global business leaders navigating volatility, change, and high-stakes decisions, Sam's story offers a rare look at what sustained resilience actually requires.
In this episode of Cryptid Warfare Podcast, I welcome back historian Brice for another History Monday discussion. With the upcoming release of The Odyssey movie, we take a deep dive into the legendary story of Odysseus and the events that followed the Trojan War. We explore the history of the Trojan War, the decade-long conflict between the Greeks and the city of Troy, the role of Helen of Troy, and the famous Trojan Horse that helped bring the war to an end. We also discuss the adventures of Odysseus as he journeyed home, including his encounters with the Cyclops, mythical creatures, monsters, and other strange beings that have fascinated people for thousands of years. Were these stories purely mythology, or were they inspired by real events, real places, and real creatures? Join us as we separate history from legend and examine one of the greatest epics ever told. Topics Covered: The historical Trojan War (12th–13th century BC) Helen of Troy and the causes of the war Odysseus and his role in the conflict The Trojan Horse and the fall of Troy The Cyclops and other creatures from The Odyssey Ancient Greek mythology and possible historical connections How these stories continue to influence modern culture and film Question for listeners: Do you think the creatures encountered by Odysseus were entirely mythical, or could they have been inspired by real-world sightings and events? #CryptidWarfarePodcast #HistoryMonday #TheOdyssey #TrojanWar Ways to Support and Connect with Brice Witherow : ✅https://www.instagram.com/bricewitherow?igsh=dnJpYTRkem43aTRh Help a brother out and buy me a Coffee (Monthly or one time donation keeps the show going): We know there is room for improvement and have decided to ask you (Our amazing listeners) to help the podcast grow!

Ready for a wild ride in season 2 of Trial by Tomato?
Brothers and Sisters! Let us tell you the story of Love and Hate. H-A-T-E! It was with this left hand that old brother Cain struck the blow that laid his brother low. L-O-V-E! You see these fingers, dear hearts? The right hand, friends, the hand of love. Now watch, and we'll show you the story of being a movie fan. Old brother left hand Hate's a-fighting; there are many, many films that most folks hated and which have not, like other ignored-upon-release films, gone on to be cult classics. But wait a minute! Hot dog, Love's a winning! Yessirreee! It's Love that's won, and old left hand Hate is down for the count! For in this episode, brothers and sisters, Team Vintage Sand makes the case for why we love these films that just about everyone else hates. The nine films we've chosen to highlight could not be more different from one another. We reach all the way back to the 1940's and come all the way up to a film released just four years ago. We range from well-known directors like Paul Schrader, Ang Lee, and Arthur Penn to solid directors like George Roy Hill, Mark Robson, and Lasse Hallström, to a couple of directors whose obscurity is well-earned or whose reputation is yet to be determined by time. So beat the drums, ‘cause here comes our last episode before a summer interlude! Lastly, join us in a moment of silence for the late Ted Turner, who in spite of colorization and his ownership of the Atlanta Braves is one of our heroes, for TCM is a treasure that never stops giving to film fanatics like us. As for the coming summer, here's hoping that "Disclosure Day" is closer to "E.T." than to "A.I." , and that Nolan is somehow able to pull off "The Odyssey" (and that for once in a Nolan film, we can hear the dialogue over the music in the sound mix). Have a safe and peaceful break, and remember a great way to stay cool in the time of El Niño (both the weather phenomenon and the current political leadership ) is to go see movies in a real theater. Just saying…

In this episode, Brian welcomes Doug from Oregon for an intense and deeply detailed account of a roadside Sasquatch encounter that took place in February 2006 along Highway 199 between Grants Pass, Oregon, and Crescent City, California.Doug explains how a late-night drive home through the dark, winding canyon near the Collier Tunnel and The Narrows turned into one of the most unforgettable moments of his life when his headlights and orange truck lights revealed a massive upright figure walking along the road.Doug describes the creature as unlike the classic bulky depictions many people imagine. Instead, he saw something towering, lean, powerful, and athletic, with the build of an enormous basketball player.He estimates it stood somewhere around ten feet tall or more, with long arms, massive shoulders, a narrow waist, pronounced musculature, pale gray skin, dark charcoal-gray hair, and orange-red eyes that appeared to catch the light as Doug passed in his 1995 Chevy dually. The creature did not run, panic, or react aggressively. It simply kept walking, calm and natural, as Doug drove by close enough to see its face, body structure, stride, hands, feet, and skin in startling detail.The conversation moves beyond the sighting itself into the emotional aftermath of seeing something so rare and impossible to easily explain. Doug talks about the shock, excitement, fear, and frustration that followed, especially after sharing the story with people who dismissed him or made him feel ridiculed. Over time, encouragement from his wife and conversations with Native friends, outdoorsmen, hunters, and other witnesses helped him become more open about what he saw.He also shares related local accounts from the same region, including sightings near Siskiyou Forks Road, Bluff Creek, Bald Hills Road, the Klamath River, Monkey Creek, and other deeply remote parts of Northern California and Southern Oregon.Brian and Doug also dig into one of the biggest questions surrounding roadside Sasquatch encounters: why would such an elusive creature be seen walking near or on a road? Brian offers the possibility that, like other animals, Sasquatch may sometimes use roads as the path of least resistance while moving from one area to another.Doug adds his own thoughts about the rugged terrain, river corridors, steep granite slopes, and hidden access points in the area where his encounter occurred. The discussion touches on Native traditions, flesh-and-blood theories, spiritual questions, government secrecy, missing people, wilderness fear, and the strange mix of curiosity and danger that seems to follow this phenomenon.Email BrianGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?

What's Homer got to do Christianity? With the upcoming film adaptation of The Odyssey, there is a renewed interest in Ancient Greece. In one way, the way of life idealized by Ancient Greeks was very different from how Christianity would later shape culture around the world. But, in another way, there is substantial agreement between the two. Dr. Scott Masson, Associate Professor of English at Tyndale University, joins us today to discuss an unexpected pairing of ancient writings: The Odyssey and the book of Proverbs. Is there something we in the 21st-century West could learn from Homer's epic poem? How does Scripture shed light on it? Tune into this week's edition of the AC Podcast to find out.

Did He-Man come out a few decades too late? I liked the movie, but does it have the power? Summer Games Fest hit Friday afternoon with a bang, Xbox brought the lancer, and immediately stepped on a rake. Meanwhile Nintendo finally revealed the game everyone knew about, as the Ocarina of time returns. Plus a new 21 Jump street is coming, but why the skip to 24?
Going back to the mid-'60s, who would have thought that Allen Park had a music scene that would flesh out one of the finest groups to hit the charts in the Michigan music scene? Rick Stevers is a founding member of the mighty Frijid Pink, who continues to tell the story from behind the drum kit. Stevers is also a member of the Michigan Rock Legends Hall of Fame and the Pink's cover of 'House Of The Rising Sun' continues to be a household staple. Here in part 2 of 2, from the pink bathrooms of the era, to the big stages playing with a 'who's who' of other '60s bands such as The Guess Who, studio time with Janis Joplin, and meeting the other 'House of The Rising Sun' band, Eric Burden & The Animals. Being ahead of the curve, Frijid Pink spent more time on the road than many of their contemporaries, which Rick says that did more harm than good when it came to the Michigan fan base. Partying with Sammy Davis Jr., working with Don Brewer, speaking with Gordon Lightfoot, and being a car worker at Chrysler for over 17 years. All the albums, lineup changes and lost power to his father, never stopped Stevers. You have to dig into this episode, NOW!

REVIEWS GODZILLA'S MONSTERPIECE THEATRE PRESENTS: GODZILLA'S THE ODYSSEY ONE-SHOT Writer: Frank Tieri Artist: Ilias Kyriazis Publisher: IDW Publishing Cover Price: $7.99 Release Date: June 10, 2026 Godzilla's tour of the literary canon continues as it smashes its way across The Odyssey in this oversize standalone one-shot! Homer's The Odyssey is widely considered to be the greatest epic of all time. So, how could you possibly make it more epic? Fill it with kaiju, that's how. Odysseus' journey home was already challenging enough, but what if instead of storms, sirens, and cyclopes, the gods sent monsters even more powerful than the titans? And what if Zeus sent the most powerful one of all to assist the king on his odyssey? It's like Homer said: "Of all creatures that breathe and move upon the earth, nothing is bred that is stronger than Godzilla." Written by Frank Tieri, illustrated by Ilias Kyriazis, and featuring part two of Tom Scioli's Godzilla vs. Robin Hood.

A brilliant analyst uncovers a global conspiracy—and is immediately marked for disappearance—only to be rescued by the mysterious Nemo, a man waging a secret war from beneath the ocean. As they dive into a hidden world of covert power and impossible technology, one question remains: can they save the world before it even knows it's in danger?

Enter the Dreamwave: the first gaming console played entirely while you sleep. Now the obsession of millions around the globe, it's also the one point of solace for four friends whose lives have been marred by trauma and dysfunction. Together, this group of ultra-online "Cemetery Kids" spend their nights roaming the open world of the most immersive and brutal horror game ever created: "Nightmare Cemetery." Together they seek to dethrone an enigmatic humanoid monster known only as the "The King of Sleep." Which was fun—until one of them doesn't wake up . . . and finds their consciousness locked inside a horror game that is anything but imaginary. Now, the three remaining Cemetery Kids must navigate the game's forbidden landscape to rescue their friend . . . and pray that the secret lurking at its center doesn't follow them home.

“Disclosure Day” and “The Odyssey” are expected to dominate the summer box office, but they’re not quite here. Instead, we’ve been left with an underwhelming start to the summer movie season to go with the conclusion of several seasons and series of streaming favorites. On this week’s episode, co-host Bruce Miller shares his thoughts on movies that missed the mark, from “Power Ballad” to “The Breadwinner” to “Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu.” And then there is another movie with low expectations: “Masters of the Universe.” Co-host Terry Lipshetz shares his thoughts on the conclusions of “Euphoria,” “Beef,” “Half Man,” “The Testaments,” and “For All Mankind,” before turning to the start of the latter’s spinoff, “Star City.” About the show Streamed & Screened is a podcast about movies and TV hosted by Bruce Miller, a longtime entertainment reporter who is the retired editor of the Sioux City Journal in Iowa and Terry Lipshetz, managing editor of the National Newsroom for Lee Enterprises based in Madison, Wisconsin. The show was named Best Podcast in the 2025 Iowa Better Newspaper Contest. Theme music Thunder City by Lunareh, used under license from Soundstripe. YouTube clearance: FV694ULMCJQDG0IY

In this latest installment of The Bigfoot Inquiry, Brian and Dr. Hogan Sherrow dive into one of the most important conversations in modern Sasquatch research: Occam's Razor, parsimony, and the need for critical thinking when evaluating Bigfoot evidence.Using Brian's recent newsletter topic as the foundation, the discussion explores how the scientific method can help researchers, enthusiasts, and witnesses examine claims without immediately jumping to the most extraordinary conclusion. Brian reflects on campout experiences where people interpreted blurry shapes, broken sticks, unusual trees, possible footprints, and so-called structures as evidence of Sasquatch activity. He explains his diplomatic response of “that's weird” while also emphasizing the importance of considering simpler explanations first, including pareidolia, human activity, environmental conditions, animal behavior, and confirmation bias.Brian and Dr. Hogan also address the growing divide within the Bigfoot community between open-minded inquiry and uncritical belief. They discuss how explanations involving portals, mind speak, and other “woo” concepts can sometimes add unnecessary layers of mystery instead of bringing researchers closer to answers. While both remain open to possibilities, they stress that extraordinary claims require careful evaluation and that the strongest path forward is one rooted in evidence, humility, and intellectual honesty.The conversation also touches on how artificial intelligence has made photographs and videos less reliable than ever, increasing the need for biological evidence, field discipline, and objective analysis. From debates surrounding the Patterson-Gimlin film to modern programs like Capturing Bigfoot, Brian and Dr. Hogan examine how ego, gullibility, infighting, and overinterpretation can weaken the search for truth.At its core, this episode is a reminder that critical thinking is not the enemy of belief. It is what gives the search for Sasquatch credibility.Brian and Dr. Hogan encourage listeners to stay curious, get outside, investigate responsibly, question assumptions, and evaluate every claim with both an open mind and a grounded perspective.Email BrianGet Our FREE NewsletterGet Brian's Books Leave Us A VoicemailVisit Our WebsiteBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/sasquatch-odyssey--4839697/support.Have you had a Bigfoot encounter, Sasquatch sighting, Dogman experience, or other cryptid or paranormal encounter?
