This episode is extra special because after being absent for a couple weeks we are back and more focused than ever! Jake even tells a story at the end that is sure to chill you to the bone... In much of our North American Folklore, Bigfoot or Sasquatch are said to be hairy, upright-walking, ape-like creatures that dwell in the wilderness and leave giant, humanlike footprints. Depictions often portray them as a missing link between humans and human ancestors or other great apes. They are strongly associated with the Pacific Northwest, particularly Oregon, Washington, British Columbia...
