Sasquatch Chronicles | Season 1 | Episode 1 | Do NOT Pull Over 

I was also a over the road driver and I ran into one of these dogmen all the way up at the end of 35 in Wisconsin. I was hauling steel up on the great lakes from Pittsburgh and I was parked at a little pull off to take my 10 hrs off, before delivering at 7 am the next morning. I was woke up at 4 am by something stepping up on the running board, or on the back of the sleeper, because the truck was air ride all the way around and was really sensitive to any weight being added or taking away. After I figured out what was going on, I actually woke because of the air being released by the air ride, and I came instantly awake because where I was parked, there was nothing around there, so I reached above my refrigerator where I kept a .45 cal. Ruger P89dc in a lead lined box, and I quietly stood up in the sleeper to open the curtains a little so I could see what was going on and just that little bit of movement caused air to escape and so it alerted whatever this thing was and it jumped down off the truck and so I threw the curtains open and trowed all my lights on, even the work lights across the back of the truck, and that's when I saw this dog headed man, standing about 20 feet away on the side of the road on the passenger side of the truck. Where it was I got a really good look at this thing, and after what seemed to be a minute, but probably was only seconds, before it ran off on 2 legs. I had already been exposed to the SABE people since I was 8 years old, I knew things were out there that we have been lied to since the last several decades at least, so I had heard of the dogman before, but didn't really believe, until I saw it.

Try this on for itony!!! While listening to the 1st guy, he mentioned Paul's Vally,Ok. I'm a trk driver and happened to be rolling through Paul's Vally just as he said that!!! Blew me away!!!

Les in 1976 i was 14 years old. My neighbor and I were turkey hunting. We had walked a mile or two into the woods. We came out close to the city dump. I didn't like being there because many different kind of varmints could be there. So I did my turkey call and thought I heard a gobbler. I asked my neighbor if he heard it. He said he had not. On the 3rd time I heard a strange scream coming from the direction of the dump. I spun around to see a huge creature about 10 ' tall. It was close and walking to us. It was taking about 6 ' steps. It gou close enough for me to see wrinkles on its face and hands. The skin was so dark it was almost blue. I did not detect any aggression. Since I saw him I've had many incounters. I have several stories that all are true. I'm 62 years old now.

I was a tweenager and it was during the summer of my 12th or 13th year. My sister and and I had just finished up washing the dinner dishes. We lived in the country 3 miles from town. We took a walk toward the river and took a the traintracks to a cut-off area that lead down to a creek that we frequented. We opted for the trail rather than the train tracks. When approaching the area where the path cuts off from going to the river and you can turn and and head across a field toward the creek, we looked over and saw what can only be described as bigfoot drinking from the creek. We stopped, took a moment to assess the situation and opted to turn and run home. We told our parents what we saw, they believed us as we were rational children. We never walked to the creek again.

A former neighbor for many years was a long-haul trucker most of his adult life and encountered all sorts of things across the country. Sadly, he died of a heart attack before I could tape the stories. I think hundreds of truckers and others that drive at night have sighted things but have never told anyone their experiences.

What the.....he is telling the 911 operator that he is looking directly at what is scaring the hell out of him and all she has to say is " uh oh"......omg YOU ARE SO FIRED!

THANK YOU for NOT using any music and just letting us hear the pure voices!!!

I've been listening to sasquatch chronicles for a long time. I kept telling my neice that she should listen (we both have had experiences with sasquatch and are firm believers). Finally she decided to listen to an episode and now she is HOOKED. Thanks Wes for making it possible for us believers to have the opportunity to listen to these encounters.

Dr meldrum was soo polite when he commented on some pictures I sent him. He did NOT agree w me, but he never made me feel stupid for what he perceived as a mis- identification.... I think that takes a lot of grace. 💝

Wes is by far my favorite Cryptid/Sasquatch podcast host he has such a tremendous format and easy calming voice and asks just the right questions with out persuading the answers he has a way to make people feel at ease. He receives the info and lays it out for you to buy it or not. I’m addicted to this podcast listen to every single episode at work.

I really appreciate hearing these stories raw, unedited and real so i can make up my own mind - without the dramatic music. I found it completely credible.

I believe some people, others I don't, but listening to their stories is entertaining either way. 😄

We need a petition to get Les back out there looking for ol Sasquatch

Even in Europe we have those creatures too. In Norway 🇳🇴, Sweden 🇸🇪, Finland 🇫🇮 and so on. Many Greetings from Linz-Austria🇦🇹😎👍🏔⛷🛶🍺🥨💪✌️😊🐺 Europe!

The fact he was urinating probably made the thing think he was marking the thing's territory as his own and took offense!

In the mountains of West Virginia I had one in my scope and couldn't pull the trigger. It scared me too bad. I never went back there hunting again. But I was glad to have seen one.

Les, that would be wonderful if you make second season of Bigfoot ! I really enjoyed your previous investigations !

Survivorman + Sasquatch is like early Christmas. Wife and I gonna listen to this right now thanks Les!

Wow, I used to think my dad's encounter was a rare thing. Now I see that it's quite common.

Native American stories are a great place to get more information about these creatures. The Natives have had millennia to learn about them. To this day some Native women are afraid of being abducted and becoming a Big Foot wife. Natives say not to look these creatures in the eye and to avoid them. From my own research, it sounds like there are subspecies of Big Foot and the smaller ones tend to be more violent.

Les your takes on the whole phenomenon are second to none, wish you'd do another series on this subject mate

I thought the BigFoot videos were over. Boy was I wrong and now I'm excited. I've had two different experiences myself. One in Lake Granger, Texas and one somewhere close to Houston, Texas.

I’m 54, been hearing these stories for years. Thank Christ I’ve never seen one. But I agree with the man. Hell hound. Scary!!👍😬✌️🙏❤️

I miss Les. My dad and I use to watch him all the time. When he decided to do a Sasquatch series, we freaked. We couldn’t believe that les was going to cover one of our favorite crypto creators. Bring Les back!

That "German shepherd" Dogman description comes up frequently.

Wow, Bigfoot *_and_* a Dogman encounter all from the first witness. *BONUS.* First-time visitor here, really enjoying the show.

I'd like to hear the whole story of that 911 call where the guy says " get someone out here, that sob is about 6 ft 9!) Love to hear the whole thing.

I know three pig hunters who were chased out of the bush by one in Australia they turned up to my house during a house party at 1 am still wearing their hunting clothes and their dogs in their Ute's. They thought it was a human wearing a ghillie suit at first. Their dogs took off back to their camp. They were stalked all the way back to the camp, they grabbed their packs and got out leaving their tents and other stuff there. Turning up to a party and tripping everyone out acting like trippers kind of goes against who these guys are, in my mind there is more truth to their story than doubt.

Really waiting on that next season of survivorman finding Bigfoot!

If these things wanted to harm or kill you, you’d never hear them coming

That is so funny when Jim said , " Like a smart person would do , I took off."

That first story. That bigfoot probably got pissed off when you pissed. Might have took that as you marking your territory in ITS territory and came to confront you n scare you away. Lol.

I'll trust your judgement for recommending this podcast, Les. I'm fascinated but there's a lot of bs flying around out there, too. Thanks!

The way I scream when I see a cockroach..if these things come in front of me.. they're gonna get their ear drums burst out.

Stopped to take a leak off the side of the highway somewhere in Indiana or Ohio. Heard something moving through the woods and breaking some thick branches. The woods were about 80 feet from the road and the woods were thick. Hair on my neck stood up and I hauled ass!! I’ll never forget the branches breaking.

Never ever pee on the side of any dark road in the middle of the night. Bottle it up and toss it!!! If there is another dominant animal near by and you are peeing (marking your territory) in its territory then you are opening yourself up for an attack by the dominant preditor whatever it may be

DNA has been done in these beings and it shows the mother was human and the father comes back as unknown.

Thanks for all you Les! You've been around but I'm just now becoming aware.🙏bless you

Luv you, best to all out there Vancouver island BC Canada take care 💞🇨🇦

Shout out to Karen the first caller's Mother for turning her son onto one of the best RU-vid channels out there! She gets the Coolest MoM Award way to go Mom👏😊

So glad this showed up on my feed. I just finished Dave Paulides book The Hunters...wow forwarded to my pals. Great work!

I used to wonder as well about the random accounts of behavior that you hear about Bigfoot until I finally stop trying to think so hard on the subject and I realize that their behavior is no different from why one man is a loving father and the next is a serial killer not everything is the same just like people

I think the Bigfoot felt that when he was peeing it was seen as marking that area and a direct challenge to his territory.

Shirley, thank you for sharing the truth with your grand kids! Kids need to know the truth, to know these beings exist. Wish more adults would follow your example.👍👍

That was fantastic. Real people telling what happened. I love it. Sick of the fakers.

I love the sound of your voice, always have..thank you for taking the time and dedication to help people.

Enjoyed listening to these 'encounters', all the way from little ol England 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇺🇲

This is really good, alot better than other sows. hte host is very respectful of the people telling their stories without interrupting or pushing a narrative. WONDERFUL! Kimberly

Gigi was AMAZING 😍 She had so much foundation that it enhances knowledge. Love both of these interviews, and I agree, Les is the authority with interviews. He's very skilled. ❣️

Thank you Les👌🏼 i love this.

I've heard stories of good Bigfoot situations, though extremely rare but I have heard them! I think it's just like human beings...there are good human beings with good intentions and there are terrible human beings with bad intentions/there are good Bigfoot out there who are good and there are bad Bigfoot out there who intend to kill and do harm, you just never know (for the most part at least)!

Thanks for acknowledging Christ and Christmas! Merry Christmas to everybody!!!

Thank you for whoever is doing this channel !

>"...he was grinnin', not necessarily showing teeth, but grinnin'".< This was an interesting podcast. When the truck driver described the grinning facial expression exhibited by the creature in his third roadside encounter, I actually exclaimed "that's primate behaviour!" I have read about how a gorilla in a playful mood will open its mouth and make a grinning expression, without teeth showing. That sounds remarkably similar to what the truck driver described, and even matches the apparent mood of the creature. Over and over again, I've run across stories about encounters with Bigfoot in which the witnesses describe the creatures exhibiting some distinctly primate-like behaviours. If the witnesses are all making it up, they must read a lot of books and articles about primate behaviour!

YES!!!. Appreciate the upload Les!U the Man.!!.. if your ever in Missouri ive got some intel for you , ..im up to five encounters here, different locations.

Im in yacolt washington... we definitely have some sasquatch close to sunset falls rd.... find prints and all types of weirdness when camping and hiking

Excellent stories!!! My dad had an experience in Enumclaw, Washington. He was trout fishing alone and he felt like someone was watching him. He smelled something foul smelling - long story short - he came home and had left all of his fishing gear behind. My dad was tighter than a frogs butt under water- I swear he saved chewing gum. Yet my dad left all of his gear next to the River. I remember hearing he and my mom in whispering tones. My dad never ever went fishing or hunting again after whatever he experienced. He never spoke openly about it after that day. I wanted to ask him but my mom always gave me the ‘ look’

Good Les! People should know and SC is the right tool for this.

Im sure by now Les got the answer of real or not for himself,,, And has searched memory banks for all the times these beings was around and he didn't realize it, I know I have after seeing one, 3 seconds changed my life forever, I want nothing really to do with them, Grateful because of my spiritual path, I wish them no harm, But I wont seek them out

"imma drink this memory bye bye" 😂 oh my lanta, I could listen to his stories all day

1st time listener. Great show. I have subbed and will be going through every show.

Listen to Shirley's excessive details about her life at 1.5x speed until the encounter at 1:02:37. I really enjoyed her insight into why sasquatch may differ in each interaction with humans (starting at 1:29:25). Respect to all the awesome people who have encountered cryptids and have NOT raised a gun to shoot it/them without provocation.

Thank you for your story. I think you hit the nail on the head that their experiences with us shape how they react to us.

That was awesome Les I listened to most of your stories I'm going to listen to this 1 Tonight

super interesting ladyl this is one of my favorite encounter stories , and especially told from the witness.

You're awesome Wes, i tell so many people about your show!

I've been listening to these stories and encounters for a while now. I've been sharing these stories with others now. I know the government know exactly what these creatures are. They may have cross bred humans with animals such as wolves or apes. People don't be alone on mountain or park trips. To many individuals are disappearing. Continue to tell your stories, someone is believing and listening. Hopefully the world will receive and have the government do something about these creatures. Also these encounters have been seen since the 60's and possibly earlier. I am definitely listening. I am thankful for individuals who are willing to share their experiences and encounters. Well I'm a believer. I have, and will always believe in JESUS.

First time listening and this was an amazing episode. Really intrigued and loved shirley! Subscribed!

Great show ! Keep it going.

The Todd Standing documentary is one of the best ones I've ever seen. You can see that there's different races of BIGFOOT. There's one standing guard during the daytime that looked Oriental and light tan colored hair in appearance.

Thank you Les for showing all these long detailed BF real life experiences..I hear you have had a handfull of experiences yourself, tree falling down whilst filimg, infrasound connectivity and many more other deep insightful phenomenon ..There is progress in some research groups in America, Canada

My cousin Shir-Lynn lived a few miles outside Paul's Valley Oklahoma on a little farm where she raised Arabian horses and her old man did construction. In 1980 I was going to Rossvilke Georgia to visit a friend of mine from the Airforce and I stopped in at Shir-Lynns for a few days to visit. Across the dirt road where she lived was a farm pond (they called them tanks) that was about 3/4 of an acre. I asked her if there was any fish in it and she said " oh it got fished out about 7 years ago so nobody fishes it anymore" I said if it hasnt been touched in 7 years theres fish! I took my pole over after finding a couple worms under a barrel by the watering troff and I hit the pond and used a bobber one split shot and a size 8 hook, but if it just stood still nothing would bite, but if I reeled it in slowly they would slam that bait! These fish where so overpopulated that there was several types of sunfish that interbred Bluegill×Green Sunfish and Bluegill×Redeared Sunfish and Green Sunfish × with Redeared as well as pure strain of each. They were so hungry that I took 2 nightcrawlers and broke them up into 5 or 6 pieces and caught a fish on every one, some I reused and caught 2 , so I had a pretty good stringer of fish going, I was having a good time and ran out of worm so I did what I did down in Georgia once and threw a rolling paper on the hook and reeled in slow and BAM! They hammered it!! So I caught about 7 more and would have kept going but it was starting to get dark, and I heard the Coyotes going off on the other side of the trees at the other side of the pond. Then another howl about 5 times louder and deeper that ended with a kind of growl joined in and you could hear the Coyotes moving off fast to my left and I had already gotten up and was headed down the 50 foot or so path leading to the road when the loud howl let loose again and I could tell it was on this side of the trees coming toward me, I started running then I could hear it running at me and it howled again and its feet hitting the ground got louder and I could tell it was running on 2 legs, at that time I hit the road ran straight across and as I hit the front porch the door swung open and my cousins old man stepped out as I ran in and he cut loose with his 12 gauge and then the thing screamed and ran off back toward the pond where it hung out all night howling. It returned the next night and howled most of the night but never came closer then the back edge of the pond. My cousin told me that the thing was pretty well known around there, and she called it a bugger, but I never connected bugger and Bigfoot until I got to Georgia where my friend told me that's what they call Bigfoot like creatures down south after I told him the story.

On Jim's first encounter, when the creature bumped his truck.....It might have done that because he urinated, thinking he was marking His territory. Just a thought. I have heard of people getting screamed at, after using the bathroom

You can read a historical account and wonder what the witnesses were like and how credible they were... but today we get to hear it 'straight from the horse's mouth' or mouths. It's so valuable!

Hey les! Cheers from Argentina, che. Still lingering on the wait for SBF season 2.

I appreciate how well the law enforcement gentlemen tell their stories.

1st time listener. I'm in.

By far the best episode I watched Shirley is the best person you’ve ever had on this podcast

I love Sasquatch Chronicles... Im starting with ep.1 and about to binge... Yep yep

Your content sells itself. good stuff

HAHA OMG when the 911 receiver says “uh-oh” you know ur in trouble 😂

Love your channel Les... Hopefully you might do some new Sasquatch videos.. Yours are the best..!!

I'm unfortunately a very skeptical person because of my scientific training but there is something so emotionally primal that is triggered when I hear these stories, as if I am remembering encountering proto-humans millennia ago when I listen and recall similar accidental experiences with similar yet unknown creatures uncannily like myself. I'm no psychologist but for all we know that could be the origin of self-consciousness, repeatedly realizing how vulnerable you are to such a thing (perhaps more ubiquitous in the past) is just wildly terrifying to think about.

First time listener love the show.

I absolutely love listening to this channel as well as Bigfoot Crossroads while driving in my car😮

Late to party. But loving this. True experience, real folk reflection ...and no need for cheesy visual reconstructions. Thanks friends. So sorry to traumatized folks..'I just can't imagine'....but now I can. Wholly. I feel u.

1st Wes thank you for all you do. In my opinion YOU ARE THE BEST AT WHAT YOU DO! 2ND- I have listened to every episode that I could of Sasquatch Chronicles along with multiple other channels because I had a lot of time on my hands over the last few years and once I found out that what I seen ten feet from me years ago was a Sasquatch for sure here in Pennsylvania I just about lost my mind. You see I told myself it couldn't have been because they're only in the Northwest if they exist which I believed they did but I never thought one would walk up behind me silent just show up out of nowhere while I was cutting wood and it was just there I mean the tree started shaking above me and my buddy I'm holding a light for him as we're taking turns using an Axe and a tree saw. The ax may have brought him in or the fact we only sawed trees in half and then we sometimes broke them in the Y of another tree or hit him them off a tree like a baseball bat till they snapped which would be known as wood knocking and I wasn't thinking about any of that shit at that time. I mean honestly I don't really believe that bring Sasquatch in but I guess if one is close enough they're going to come over and check it out and unbeknownst to us this one was right behind me and I had no idea and when I say right behind me I mean 8 to 10ft maximum! Anyways I remember when I heard my first encounter on it was actually pacwest Bigfoot but I was shocked and I was hooked at the same time but I didn't know yet that I was going to get verification about what happened that night and that it was in fact what I thought it was. It wasn't until I was laying down almost asleep and a person said it huffed at me like a horse does and I sat up like someone in a casket just completely shocked because that was the exact description that I told my uncle the next day when he tried to tell me it was a buck in rut and all this other stuff which I eventually began to believe but really I knew it couldn't have been I know what I saw but anyway from listening to the shows you do learn so much if you keep an open mind and just listen and often I could hear someone telling about their encounter and know what is going to happen next just by learning their behavior from listening to these shows so when Wes says that his audience is often smarter than so-called researchers I think that is why and it's a testament to the people he puts on and the fact that these people are not lying because we are growing a knowledge of these creatures or people depending on how you look at it and how they act and respond to our Behavior and vice versa to the point that you could and most situations use your knowledge to at least know what to do Granite it isn't one of these Rogue ones or two that are just on a complete " all humans can die for all we care" kinda trip and they just dont care anymore! And who knows they may have every right because someone may have killed their mom right in front of them and left them to fend for themselves as two little kids that grew up together and are now monsters that were not raised with parents just like we have on the streets today. IDK why..BUT I KNOW IT HAPPENS! And I ALSO KNOW OF MULTIPLE TIMES that the female Sasquatch which I can only figure is the wife stop the male from killing the person he was coming after! That shows that family bond and something that happens in many homes across America and the world

One of the best guest ever!!!! Loved revisiting these old episodes over and over, dude should really be doing stand up lol!

Great show! Les Stroud is the man - truly enjoyed his show when I was a teenager. He's also been helpful to David Paulides & the CANAM Missing Project ~ The Truth is out there, and those in power are lying to Us ~

Much better than how to hunt, this podcast is best, thanks West.😊

Awesome man! Cheers indeed ❤️🎉

You gotta think these are mostly like small tribes spread out all over and each tribe having their own experiences throughout generations which the elders would pass knowledge and experiences down to the younger generations

In my past experiences, including last week, wherever there's a forest these things are out there, abundantly. These things really have no threat to their existence but humans. Humans being an occasional team of special forces, when they get out of line.

When someone says "I can't lie to ya" or "I'll be honest with you" most of the time they are lying or exaggerating

Can you imagine being the first person to treat saqsquatch to some bbq

I have heard reports of a witness hearing a male & female sasquatch singing the same song & laughing together. So they definitely have a language

Beautiful letter so well written.

Much thanks and appreciation to Jim for sharing his experiences…Sounds like a good and sincere man…Hope that’s the end of the negative experiences with that creature..

Les, you da man! Like your work the best.

Les! How wonderfully kind, caring and thoughtful of you to play this! God Bless you. I’ve been subscribed to you for years and way back I was subscribed to Wes Chronicles and don’t know how I lost em but I sure do appreciate you! Merry Christmas and you stay safe please 🙏🏼🥰
