00:00:00The Bigfoot Club is brought to you in part
00:00:29by Red Alert Soda, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, the John T. Valentine Foundation,
00:00:36and by totally awesome public television viewers like you and me.
00:00:41Okay team, here's what happened on the last episode.
00:00:44Grab a notebook and your official orange gel pen and follow along.
00:00:48First, Willow spotted a footprint in the park.
00:00:52And look, a glob of blue hair!
00:00:55Next, they brought the hair to Einstein's lab for analysis.
00:00:58It's from an unknown animal species.
00:01:02Then, Breezy tried to create a psychic connection with the creature.
00:01:07Bigfoot, Bigfoot, where are you?
00:01:09And, Dorothy came up with her most amazing idea ever.
00:01:14I invented this device. I call it the Bigfoot Finder 1000.
00:01:18Look, it's beeping.
00:01:20That means the Bigfoot is close.
00:01:21Keep watching to find out what happens next.
00:01:24Do you believe in monsters?
00:01:32I believe in the Jersey Devil.
00:01:33I believe in the Mothman.
00:01:35I believe in the Loch Ness Monster.
00:01:37I believe in Bigfoot. That's how we got the name.
00:01:39Bigfoot Club!
00:01:41We're trying to prove the world's most legendary creatures exist.
00:01:44We're friends.
00:01:45But also rivals.
00:01:46Because we all want to find our monster first.
00:01:49It's going to be me, because I care the most.
00:02:19It's going to be me, because I don't want to find our monster first.
00:02:49Happy birthday!
00:03:08Stop!
00:03:10Happy birthday!
00:03:11No, I said stop.
00:03:12I already lit the candles.
00:03:14Why?
00:03:15It's your birthday.
00:03:17How do you know?
00:03:18Whose birthday is it?
00:03:19Dots.
00:03:20Who's Dot?
00:03:21That girl over there.
00:03:22Is she new?
00:03:23I don't think so.
00:03:24Happy birthday.
00:03:25Stop.
00:03:25Please.
00:03:26Stop singing.
00:03:27It's somebody's birthday?
00:03:29Yeah.
00:03:29Dots.
00:03:30Who's Dot?
00:03:31This girl that hates birthdays.
00:03:34I don't hate birthdays.
00:03:36I just hate my own birthday.
00:03:38Angie baked you cupcakes out of the goodness of her own big heart.
00:03:41So ungrateful.
00:03:43I'm not ungrateful.
00:03:44You sound ungrateful.
00:03:45I just don't like being the center of attention.
00:03:48That explains why no one knows her name.
00:03:49If she doesn't want them, can we eat them?
00:03:51No.
00:03:52Not until we sing.
00:03:54Please don't sing.
00:03:55Angie's not going to let us have cupcakes until we sing.
00:03:58It's Angie's one rule.
00:04:00Come on, let us sing.
00:04:04Fine.
00:04:04Sing.
00:04:06Happy birthday.
00:04:07Happy birthday.
00:04:37Oh sorry no no why it's my fault I'm you know you look so familiar
00:05:06do I know you? no I'm nobody
00:05:16goodnight
00:05:20what mysteries do we think our great planet still has to offer us if you
00:05:29listen to conventional scientific wisdom you'll hear there's nothing out there
00:05:35there are no more myths or marvels or monsters roaming the forests or the
00:05:48skies or the seas
00:05:51you think I'm insane? we're all alone here I don't mean that I'm a competent person
00:05:57but what would happen if we didn't accept conventional wisdom
00:06:04enabling the foot to support a larger body weight if we looked a little closer
00:06:10and really opened up to what lies beyond the known world
00:06:22what then would we find?
00:06:26what then would we find?
00:06:28Dorothy March?
00:06:43oh my god! It's you isn't it? It's really you!
00:06:47No wait! You can't go! Don't you realize? You're my hero! You're the most famous person that's ever lived and I finally found you!
00:07:05Hello, I'm Dr. Peter Greenford and tonight I'll be bringing you the true story of The Bigfoot Club.
00:07:17The Bigfoot Club. Starring Dorothy March, Willow Fernandez, Maggie Breeze-Mopoulos and Einstein Funicello with special guest stars Esme and Dr. Peter Greenport.
00:07:40The Bigfoot Club.
00:07:47Do you believe in monsters? Breeze does. Visit Breeze.
00:07:51It was as though for a time I didn't exist. As though I had no place in the world.
00:07:59What is cryptozoology? Find out in the new Encyclopedia America series, Monsters, Myths and Legends.
00:08:06Sasquatch. Yeti. The Abominable Snowman. For nearly a thousand years people throughout the world have reported sightings of a large bipedal creature.
00:08:13Sasquatch. Yeti. The Abominable Snowman. For nearly a thousand years people throughout the world have reported sightings of a large bipedal creature.
00:08:32He goes by many names. But so far this Bigfoot has eluded real capture. To the skeptics, he's a myth. To the believers, he's still out there waiting to be found.
00:08:49Our story begins with one such believer. Her name was...
00:08:53Dorothy March! That's who you are!
00:08:56I don't know why you think I'm that person, but I'm most certainly not that person.
00:09:02See?
00:09:04Patty Katz?
00:09:07I get it. It's a pseudonym. You know, a fake name.
00:09:10I know the definition of pseudonym.
00:09:12Because you always adopt orange cats. And you always name them Patty after the Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot.
00:09:18You know, the Patterson-Gimlin Bigfoot.
00:09:23That's a really good impression actually.
00:09:26Everyone told me I was crazy to go looking for you.
00:09:30Well, except bae.
00:09:33Bae?
00:09:34Boyfriend?
00:09:35Why don't you just say boyfriend?
00:09:36But I knew this plan would work.
00:09:37What plan?
00:09:38I put up those flyers. I set up this whole convention.
00:09:42I came all the way to Queens to find clues about the whereabouts of my childhood hero Dorothy March.
00:09:47And instead I find THE Dorothy March!
00:09:51Why would you be looking for that person?
00:09:54Don't you know? Everyone is.
00:09:57Everyone?
00:09:58Everyone that listens to Willow Fernandez's podcast anyway.
00:10:01Did you say Willow Fernandez?
00:10:03Yeah!
00:10:04A few weeks ago she asked your fans to find you.
00:10:07And I'm the fan that did!
00:10:10Did I tell you my name?
00:10:12I'm Esme.
00:10:13I'm...
00:10:18I'm...
00:10:19Patty Katz.
00:10:20We already established that's a pseudonym.
00:10:23You know, a fake name.
00:10:24Again, I know the definition of pseudonym.
00:10:26You should come up on stage!
00:10:28Yeah, you could do a Q&A with everyone!
00:10:30No, I'm sorry. You're wrong.
00:10:32I'm not Dorothy March and I have to go.
00:10:36Wait!
00:10:37Don't you want to know why Willow's looking for you?
00:10:40Listen to her podcast!
00:10:42It's important!
00:10:43It was the summer of 1997, and New York City suddenly became the epicenter of a cryptid
00:10:56craze.
00:10:57That's what inspired a latchkey kid named Dorothy March to start the Bigfoot Club out of her
00:11:03queen's apartment.
00:11:05Her website developed a small but dedicated fan base.
00:11:09One fan was a fellow sixth grader named Willow Fernandez.
00:11:14Willow Fernandez!
00:11:16That's me!
00:11:17Hi, I'm Dorothy March.
00:11:19I know.
00:11:20I'm your biggest fan.
00:11:21I came all the way from Brooklyn just to find you.
00:11:24Why?
00:11:25Your research has inspired me.
00:11:27Now, I'm looking for my favorite monster.
00:11:29The Loch Ness Monster.
00:11:31Here, check this out.
00:11:33Wow, you're the first person I've ever met that cares about this stuff.
00:11:42There are more kids out there, just like us.
00:11:44There are?
00:11:45Yeah, they're spread throughout all the other boroughs.
00:11:48And together, we're gonna build something.
00:11:50You mean a team?
00:11:51No.
00:11:53A franchise.
00:11:55With Willow's help, Dorothy expanded her reach from the Bigfoot Club in Queens, to the Loch Ness Monster Club in Brooklyn, to the Mothman Club in the Bronx, headed by Maggie Breezemopoulos.
00:12:09Everyone calls me Breezy.
00:12:11I'm the master of the dark arts.
00:12:13You're on the team.
00:12:14Here, have a hat.
00:12:15I only wear black.
00:12:17Well, now you wear yellow.
00:12:19And finally, the Jersey Devil Club in Staten Island, run by a fourth grader named Einstein Funicello.
00:12:27I'm the smartest kid in Staten Island.
00:12:30Hey, wanna see my collection of bugs and worms?
00:12:33Gross.
00:12:34Just put on the hat.
00:12:37Thanks to Willow's promotional skills, their online following grew.
00:12:42They appeared in magazines, on talk shows.
00:12:45Do you believe in monsters?
00:12:48Watch the Bigfoot Club.
00:12:49Sundays at 6.30.
00:12:51Only on SPTV.
00:12:53They even sold their life story to Canadian Public Television for the fictionalized Bigfoot Club TV series, which we've been playing scenes from during this broadcast.
00:13:05The Bigfoot Club, scene four, take one.
00:13:07Starring local child actors, it lasted for only six episodes.
00:13:16You see, just at the height of the Bigfoot Club's fame, the team broke up.
00:13:22Why?
00:13:23Why?
00:13:24Well, it may have something to do with this device.
00:13:30The Bigfoot Finder 1000.
00:13:34Hello.
00:13:35I'm Willow Fernandez, and this is Beyond the Beyond.
00:13:52On today's episode, we'll do a four-hour deep dive on the legend of the hoedag.
00:13:57They call him Champy, the aquatic dinosaur that stalks Lake Champlain.
00:14:03I have four words for you.
00:14:06Honey Island Swamp Monster.
00:14:09Now, the greatest mystery of all.
00:14:14What happened to the mysterious creature known as Dorothy March?
00:14:20I last saw her almost 20 years ago.
00:14:22Since then, she has seemingly disappeared off the face of the earth.
00:14:26My team of researchers have looked for her and found no trace.
00:14:30Now, I'm asking you to join me in the hunt.
00:14:34Why?
00:14:35Because there's been a new development in our search for Bigfoot.
00:14:39And we need Dorothy's help.
00:14:40Dorothy.
00:14:41Dorothy.
00:14:42Are you out there?
00:14:43Dorothy.
00:14:44Dorothy.
00:14:49Dorothy.
00:15:00Dorothy March.
00:15:01Hello, this is Robert Nesmith of the Monster Squad Pod, and I have just spotted THE Dorothy March.
00:15:27What does your future hold?
00:15:32I'm psychic Cleopatra de Quoros, and I can see the answers.
00:15:38It's the scariest ride ever!
00:15:42The Loch Ness Ma-
00:15:44New Adventures of Bigfoot Club!
00:15:46Premiering Monday-
00:15:47Zoology entered the English language via Latin, but the root zoo came from the ancient Greek word zone.
00:15:53Cryptozoology.
00:15:54Pseudoscience or legitimate science?
00:15:56You decide.
00:15:57Call the-
00:15:58Hey.
00:15:59Thanks for calling me.
00:16:00And for letting me buy you pizza.
00:16:01I can pay for it.
00:16:02In fact, I'd rather pay for it.
00:16:03No, please!
00:16:04It would be an honor to buy dinner for my hero.
00:16:05Please don't call me that.
00:16:06It's true!
00:16:07Just take the money.
00:16:08No, I can't.
00:16:09Well, I can't either, so it's just gonna sit there.
00:16:11Okay.
00:16:12So you are her?
00:16:13Because earlier you said you weren't.
00:16:14I am her.
00:16:15And the reason I called you-
00:16:16First can I just say that I have been waiting for this moment's-
00:16:17You eat your pizza crust first?
00:16:18Yeah.
00:16:19How do you eat your pizza crust first?
00:16:20Yeah.
00:16:21Why?
00:16:22How do you eat it?
00:16:23We eat it.
00:16:24We eat heart first.
00:16:25Okay.
00:16:26Please sit there.
00:16:27Okay.
00:16:28So you are her?
00:16:30Because earlier you said you weren't.
00:16:33I am her.
00:16:34And the reason I called you-
00:16:36First, can I just say that I have been waiting for this moment's-
00:16:40You ate your pizza crust first?
00:16:45Yeah.
00:16:46Yeah. Why? How do you eat it?
00:16:50We eat heart first.
00:16:52So why did you call? Do you want to be on my podcast?
00:16:56No. What is it with you and everyone in these stupid podcasts?
00:17:03Does every human interaction have to be recorded and monetized?
00:17:06Well, that's funny because...
00:17:08Never mind.
00:17:12What?
00:17:12Yeah. Well, you basically invented monetizing this stuff.
00:17:18I mean, the officially licensed Bigfoot Club hats, pens, t-shirts. Weren't you sponsored by Red Alert Soda?
00:17:25The Bigfoot Club is brought to you in part by Red Alert Soda.
00:17:29That was all Willow's idea. She just cared about being famous. I just like the science.
00:17:36Is that why you two stopped talking?
00:17:38No.
00:17:39Then why?
00:17:40I don't know. Do you still talk to your friends from when you were 12?
00:17:44Of course.
00:17:46Look, I called you because I need your help. I was at work when all these people showed up and started pointing at me.
00:17:53And now they won't leave me alone.
00:17:56They're standing outside my apartment and calling my home telephone number? Why?
00:18:00Since you've re-emerged, people are looking for answers.
00:18:05Re-emerged? I just went to that one convention.
00:18:10And people saw you.
00:18:12You saw me.
00:18:14Your fans are curious.
00:18:15My what?
00:18:16They have 20 years of questions.
00:18:19What kind of questions?
00:18:20First, where have you been all these years?
00:18:24Before you went back to Queens.
00:18:25Because there are a lot of theories on Reddit.
00:18:28What's Reddit?
00:18:29A website where people talk.
00:18:31About me?
00:18:32Not just about you.
00:18:33One theory is that you went to Australia.
00:18:39Another is that you moved to Canada.
00:18:42Someone even spotted you at a Circle K in Alaska.
00:18:45Is that you?
00:18:46Well, I mean, it looks...
00:18:49Also, some people think you're dead.
00:18:53Dead?
00:18:54Is Dorothy Mark still alive?
00:18:56Call our hotline and vote now.
00:18:58If you're under 18, get your parents' permission.
00:19:01However, most people just think that you disappeared into the Pacific Northwest.
00:19:07Why would I do that?
00:19:09To live amongst the Big Feet.
00:19:12Big Foots?
00:19:14Amateur search there.
00:19:16I knew where he really was.
00:19:20He was here.
00:19:22Wasn't he?
00:19:23In Queens?
00:19:24What happened when you activated the BFF 1000?
00:19:28Why does it matter?
00:19:30Because I'm just like you.
00:19:32I've spent my whole life dreaming that there's something else out there.
00:19:38Is there?
00:19:41No.
00:19:43There's nothing.
00:19:45I looked.
00:19:49So, if I were you, I would just give up.
00:19:54Now.
00:19:58So, if I go on your podcast and answer your questions, will people leave me alone?
00:20:06Well, no.
00:20:08You need a bigger platform.
00:20:11One that reaches a lot of people in the BFC.
00:20:14What's the BFC?
00:20:15Bigfoot community.
00:20:16Why don't you just say Bigfoot community?
00:20:18I shorten it to save time.
00:20:20Do you feel like you're saving time now?
00:20:22No.
00:20:22Now I feel like I'm wasting time.
00:20:24Okay.
00:20:25Just a really big show that a lot of people watch, like...
00:20:29Regis and Kathy Lee?
00:20:31More like Willow Fernandez's podcast.
00:20:37No.
00:20:38She's your best friend.
00:20:39You mean worst enemy.
00:20:41She has hundreds of thousands of subscribers that are all wondering where you've been.
00:20:47If I tell them the truth, will you leave me alone?
00:20:51Yeah.
00:20:55I think so.
00:20:58Fine.
00:20:59I'll do it.
00:21:02Okay.
00:21:04Yes!
00:21:05Okay!
00:21:06I will call Willow's producer right now.
00:21:08I have her contact info.
00:21:10How did you get that?
00:21:12Well, when I reported to Beyond Beyond that I knew your location...
00:21:14Wait.
00:21:15You're the reason why all these weirdos know where I am?
00:21:19You know what?
00:21:19You can pay for my dinner now.
00:21:25Why are you smiling like that?
00:21:27It's just...
00:21:29I get to buy dinner for someone who's on my Mount Rushmore of personal heroes!
00:21:36Things are looking up for you, Esme.
00:21:45So this is where the Bigfoot club began?
00:21:49Where's Patty?
00:21:51She hides whenever people come over.
00:21:53Do a lot of people come over?
00:21:55Not really.
00:21:58Is this your original computer?
00:22:01Yeah.
00:22:02I doubt it works anymore.
00:22:03No one's used it since my mom died.
00:22:07Sorry.
00:22:08I didn't know.
00:22:09Can we just, um, call Willow already?
00:22:12Yeah, um, let me just text back my bae real quickly.
00:22:16He's been asking me so many questions about you.
00:22:18He's been texting all night.
00:22:21What's your, um, bae's name?
00:22:25Davey.
00:22:26He's the best.
00:22:27He wears these cute little button-up shirts that he buys at the thrift store.
00:22:30Like, a little professional baby.
00:22:34Sorry.
00:22:35I just really like him.
00:22:37He believes in me.
00:22:39And that's all you need.
00:22:40One person who really believes in you.
00:22:43I don't have that.
00:22:46Sure you do.
00:22:47You have me.
00:22:48How'd you meet, Davey?
00:22:53At a coffee shop on campus.
00:22:56We locked eyes when we were both ordering the same drink.
00:23:00A pumpkin kiwi mocha.
00:23:02And he just walked up to you and asked you on a date?
00:23:05I asked him, actually.
00:23:08So, if I liked someone, I could do that?
00:23:12Why?
00:23:12Is there someone you like?
00:23:16No.
00:23:16Anyway, let's call.
00:23:24Uh, hello?
00:23:26It's Esme.
00:23:27I'm here with Do-
00:23:29I mean, Dorothy March.
00:23:33Yeah.
00:23:35Willow wants to talk to her?
00:23:37Okay.
00:23:41Hello?
00:23:43Willow Fernandez?
00:23:44I am such a fan.
00:23:47Can I just say-
00:23:48Yes.
00:23:49Dorothy is right here.
00:23:53She wants to talk to you.
00:23:55Tell her I can't talk right now.
00:23:56She says she can't talk right now.
00:23:58No, don't tell her I said it.
00:24:00I wasn't supposed to say she said it.
00:24:02Okay.
00:24:06I'll let her know.
00:24:07She wants you to come over tomorrow.
00:24:10To her apartment in Brooklyn?
00:24:12She doesn't live in Brooklyn anymore.
00:24:14She lives in Connecticut.
00:24:15But that's so far.
00:24:17It's an hour outside of the city.
00:24:20She'll pay for your Uber.
00:24:21My what?
00:24:22You'll record the episode in her home studio.
00:24:25Would that be okay?
00:24:28She said yes!
00:24:29Oh, okay!
00:24:30Oh, this is so exciting.
00:24:32Bye.
00:24:33You're all set.
00:24:35They'll pick you up at nine o'clock tomorrow.
00:24:38Hey, Esme?
00:24:40Yeah?
00:24:42Will you come with me?
00:24:43Should we have locked?
00:25:07She said we could just come in.
00:25:13Hi.
00:25:21Hi.
00:25:23Oh, my God.
00:25:25Willow Fernandez.
00:25:27I'm in Willow Fernandez's house.
00:25:31This is Esme.
00:25:32Esme?
00:25:33The one you talked to on the phone?
00:25:36Oh, right.
00:25:37That Esme.
00:25:38I met you once.
00:25:39Oh, well, saw you twice.
00:25:41Met you once.
00:25:42At BAM.
00:25:43You were doing a live podcast?
00:25:45I remember.
00:25:47Me?
00:25:48The podcast.
00:25:50Right.
00:25:50Of course.
00:25:51Yeah, of course.
00:25:54We took a selfie.
00:25:56It's my profile picture on everything.
00:25:59I also met Breezy once.
00:26:02And I've even met Einstein.
00:26:04So you're collecting us.
00:26:06Like action figures.
00:26:08Or Funko Pops.
00:26:09I actually have Bigfoot Club Funko Pops.
00:26:14Ugh.
00:26:15You know, I told myself on the drive over that I wouldn't mention the custom Funko Pops I bought on Etsy.
00:26:20And here I am mentioning the custom Funko Pops I bought on Etsy.
00:26:23It's okay.
00:26:26Anyway.
00:26:26I'll let you two talk and, like, totally not eavesdrop at all.
00:26:33Well, you can hang out in our guest room.
00:26:35First door on your left.
00:26:36Fine.
00:26:37Here.
00:26:37Is that what you'll be wearing on the show?
00:26:52Yes.
00:26:54Why?
00:26:55Is it bad?
00:26:56I'm sure it'll be fine.
00:26:57I thought that podcasts were an audio medium.
00:27:01Yeah.
00:27:02No.
00:27:02They are.
00:27:04It's just that I'll be live streaming for my Patreon subscribers at the $30 level.
00:27:13We'll be on video.
00:27:16So people will be able to see me?
00:27:18Hey, this is the real you.
00:27:21And the truth is important to people like us.
00:27:28Science people.
00:27:30Right.
00:27:32Can I get you something to eat or drink?
00:27:34Do you have any Pizza Pockets or Heisty Flash and Fruit Punch?
00:27:39I don't.
00:27:41Then nothing.
00:27:45How was your drive up here?
00:27:46One hour and 17 minutes.
00:27:49Oh, I'm sorry.
00:27:50Did you ask how or how long?
00:27:52My husband and I actually bought this house last year.
00:27:55You're married?
00:28:00Is that a big ring?
00:28:02I don't know anything about rings.
00:28:05I wish you could meet him.
00:28:07But he's not home.
00:28:08He never is.
00:28:09I mean, neither am I.
00:28:11I've been so busy with Beyond the Beyond on the road.
00:28:14Live podcasts in 12 cities across the country.
00:28:22Have you had a chance to listen to the show?
00:28:25I have.
00:28:26What do you think?
00:28:27It's fine.
00:28:31Which episode did you listen to?
00:28:32Because we were still finding our way in those older ones.
00:28:35You should listen to one of our newer ones.
00:28:38I did listen to the newer ones.
00:28:39Hey, so you said there's been a new development?
00:28:48Yes.
00:28:51What is it?
00:28:52You're never going to believe this.
00:28:54But you know what?
00:28:56We should save this.
00:28:59The conversation.
00:29:01For the podcast.
00:29:04Right.
00:29:05Shall we get started?
00:29:07Oh, I have to do an ad break after the first 15 minutes.
00:29:11And then every 20 minutes after that.
00:29:13Okay.
00:29:15Hey.
00:29:16You aren't going to make fun of me, right?
00:29:22I mean, I'll do the show because I said I would.
00:29:26But you have to promise you won't make fun of me.
00:29:29I won't.
00:29:30You promise?
00:29:33I won't.
00:29:34Come on.
00:29:42Can you give me a level?
00:29:43My name is Dot March.
00:29:46My home phone number is 7188.
00:29:50We got it.
00:29:51I'll count us down.
00:29:53In three.
00:29:54Two.
00:29:58Hello.
00:29:59And welcome to a very special episode of Beyond the Beyond.
00:30:05I'm Willow Fernandez.
00:30:06And this is the big one.
00:30:08I am pleased to introduce my guest, a true legend in cryptozoology and my inspiration for
00:30:19getting into the field.
00:30:20Her name is Dorothy March.
00:30:25Hi.
00:30:27Now, as you can imagine, our listeners have a lot of questions.
00:30:32But first, I want to go back to the beginning.
00:30:35You're a kid in Queens and you decide to start the Bigfoot Club.
00:30:41Why?
00:30:43I thought you wanted to talk about, like, where I've been and Circle K and Alaska and stuff.
00:30:50Yes, but I want to know your story.
00:30:53How you became the world's most famous Bigfoot researcher at just 12 years old.
00:30:58Well, my, uh, mom worked, so I was by myself a lot.
00:31:07And your dad?
00:31:08Was he in the picture?
00:31:11You know he wasn't.
00:31:14But our listeners don't.
00:31:16I'm trying to paint a picture here.
00:31:20How did that make you feel?
00:31:21Answer her question.
00:31:27How did it make you feel?
00:31:30You're not real.
00:31:31You're just in my head.
00:31:33You must have hosted some show I watched as a kid.
00:31:36Unsolved Mysteries in search of-
00:31:38Answer her question.
00:31:39I felt alone.
00:31:41Different?
00:31:43Different.
00:31:44Different.
00:31:45Different how?
00:31:46Well, nobody liked me.
00:31:49Not kids.
00:31:50Not teachers.
00:31:52They all thought I was weird.
00:31:55And then, I started reading stories about cryptid sightings in the burrows, and I thought,
00:32:02if I could find one, Bigfoot, then maybe people would care.
00:32:09About you?
00:32:11About Bigfoot.
00:32:12Your research was next level.
00:32:18But you were almost entirely unknown, until I found you.
00:32:24Do you remember when we first met?
00:32:28Willow Fernandez.
00:32:31That's me.
00:32:32Hi, I'm Dorothy March.
00:32:35Really?
00:32:36That's how you remember it?
00:32:39Bigfoot Club!
00:32:40We became friends.
00:32:45And you suggested that we expand to the Loch Ness Monster Club.
00:32:50And then I found Maggie, or Breezy.
00:32:53She was obsessed with Mothman.
00:32:56A little too obsessed.
00:32:57Like, she wanted to marry him.
00:32:59Oh my gosh.
00:33:01I remember you saying that.
00:33:02That's so bad.
00:33:04And then this fourth grader, Einstein Funicello.
00:33:08The Jersey Devil Club.
00:33:10Smartest kid in Staten Island.
00:33:12That's not saying much.
00:33:13That was my joke!
00:33:14No, that was mine!
00:33:19But then, when we were 15, you disappeared.
00:33:26Of course, the most widely accepted theory is that you moved to the Pacific Northwest to live amongst the Bigfoot.
00:33:35Bigfeet.
00:33:36Is it true?
00:33:37No.
00:33:38Where did you go?
00:33:40I never left Queens.
00:33:42But, people said there were sightings of you in Alaska and Canada.
00:33:50I've always been in the same apartment.
00:33:53You never thought to look for me there?
00:33:55I just...
00:34:01I had assumed you had continued your research.
00:34:05You were the best.
00:34:07Why would you give up?
00:34:09Because I realized the truth.
00:34:13There's nothing out there.
00:34:17Dorothy.
00:34:18Stop.
00:34:19What?
00:34:21You cannot come onto my show and do that.
00:34:23Do what?
00:34:24Lie.
00:34:24I'm not lying.
00:34:27Do you remember this?
00:34:32The BFF 1000.
00:34:35How it looked in real life.
00:34:38You're starting to remember.
00:34:43How'd you get that?
00:34:44I found it.
00:34:45You stole it.
00:34:46You threw it away.
00:34:47I want it back.
00:34:48First, tell me what it does.
00:34:50It recreates the entire Bigfoot language,
00:34:53amplified on a frequency that only they can hear.
00:34:56Like a dog whistle?
00:34:57You make it sound so simple.
00:35:00What happened when you activated it?
00:35:02Nothing.
00:35:03Because Bigfoot is not real.
00:35:06Dorothy.
00:35:06I mean, in all these years, no one's even found a body.
00:35:09Wait.
00:35:10We're talking about a seven foot tall creature that walks upright.
00:35:14I need to interject here.
00:35:16No.
00:35:16I've been keeping a secret of yours for years.
00:35:21Years.
00:35:21And I can't keep it any longer.
00:35:24It wasn't like it was on the TV show.
00:35:26We did not all go into the woods with you.
00:35:32You went alone.
00:35:36When you came back, what did you say?
00:35:39You said that you would not make fun of me.
00:35:42You stood right out there and promised.
00:35:44You're going to have to talk about it, Dorothy.
00:35:47You can't keep lying.
00:35:48She's calling me a liar.
00:35:50Then stop lying.
00:35:51Stop lying.
00:35:52Okay.
00:35:53Okay.
00:35:56When I activated the device, he showed up.
00:36:10Bigfoot.
00:36:12Yes.
00:36:14You saw him.
00:36:18I think so.
00:36:21What did he look like?
00:36:26What did you say to him?
00:36:32Is that why you quit?
00:36:33Because you thought no one would believe you?
00:36:38After I found him,
00:36:40I thought that
00:36:41I would feel different about myself.
00:36:45But when I looked in the mirror the next morning,
00:36:51I was still me.
00:36:55You thought that finding Bigfoot would change you?
00:36:59Would make you feel better about yourself?
00:37:03Make me like me.
00:37:06And it didn't?
00:37:10No.
00:37:10Why did you come here today, Dot?
00:37:18Esme said, if I did,
00:37:20then people would leave me alone.
00:37:23Why did you really come here?
00:37:29I listened to your podcast.
00:37:31You said that you found new evidence.
00:37:34I need to know what it is.
00:37:35And you will find out.
00:37:40But first, let me just take a moment to say
00:37:42our sponsor is Hire Today.
00:37:45Are you struggling to find the right employee
00:37:47for your small business?
00:37:49Hire Today is for you.
00:37:51Dorothy, wait.
00:37:53Hey!
00:37:54I was watching the live stream.
00:37:56I'm sorry.
00:37:57I did not know she was going to corner you like that.
00:38:00So you really saw Bigfoot?
00:38:03Because earlier you said there was nothing out there.
00:38:05What difference does it make?
00:38:07I want to meet him, too.
00:38:09I saw my monster
00:38:10because I dedicated my life to finding him.
00:38:13I made sacrifices.
00:38:14Did you do that?
00:38:15Please.
00:38:15You're too busy texting your bae.
00:38:17You don't care as much as I do.
00:38:19You're just like Willow.
00:38:22I liked you better when you were missing.
00:38:28The Uber's still waiting.
00:38:30You take it.
00:38:32Find my own way home.
00:38:33Oh, Tannenbaum, oh, Tannenbaum, wie treu sind deine Blätten.
00:38:46Oh, Tannenbaum, oh, Tannenbaum, wie treu sind deine Blätten.
00:38:56Oh, Tannenbaum, oh, Tannenbaum, wie treu sind deine Blätten.

00:39:55Who is it?
00:40:05The ghost of Christmas past.
00:40:07Come on, open up.
00:40:14Dorothy March?
00:40:16You are a vision and orge.
00:40:18Breezy?
00:40:18Breezy?
00:40:20It's the hair, right?
00:40:21It's changed since we were kids.
00:40:23You're, you're really here?
00:40:26Indeed I am.
00:40:27I was listening to Willis' podcast.
00:40:32What's going on in this room?
00:40:35What do you mean?
00:40:37Feels like someone died in here.
00:40:39Well, my mom did, in fact, die in here three years ago.
00:40:45That's the energy I'm picking up on.
00:40:49Where are your candles?
00:40:53I, I don't have any candles.
00:40:55Well, don't worry.
00:40:56I always bring some.
00:40:58I can't possibly stay here with this death aura.
00:41:04You're planning on staying, but
00:41:06I haven't seen you in like 20 years.
00:41:10And yet our psychic connection never faded.
00:41:14See, I always knew that you were safe, wherever you were.
00:41:18I was here.
00:41:21Well, I couldn't see that.
00:41:26And what about you?
00:41:27Are you still in the Bronx?
00:41:30Did you really just ask me that?
00:41:32Well, how am I supposed to know?
00:41:34Because I run the most successful chain of occult stores in the tri-state area.
00:41:40The village voice said that I was single-handedly responsible for bringing witchcraft back to New York.
00:41:47I think I just saw your commercial.
00:41:49See?
00:41:50Second connection.
00:41:52Face it, Marsh.
00:41:53There's something supernatural going on here.
00:41:56Oh, do you have anything to drink?
00:42:00Yoo-hoo.
00:42:01It's fine.
00:42:02I brought my own.
00:42:11How big is your purse?
00:42:13You want to find out?
00:42:19That's him.
00:42:20Um.
00:42:22I'm okay.
00:42:23Shut up.
00:42:26So, you really did see Bigfoot.
00:42:33Woo!
00:42:35Except you told Willow and you didn't tell me.
00:42:39Well, she was my best friend.
00:42:41She was your worst enemy.
00:42:42Sometimes people can be the same thing.
00:42:46Did you tell Einstein?
00:42:48No, of course not.
00:42:49I didn't tell anyone else besides her.
00:42:52At least there's another.
00:42:53So, is that why you're here?
00:42:57To talk to me about Bigfoot for your podcast or something?
00:43:01Don't friggin' insult me.
00:43:03No, friggin' podcast.
00:43:04I'm here because I am a creature of insatiable curiosity, and I never do satiate it with Mothman.
00:43:16That's fine.
00:43:19It's fine.
00:43:20I invited him.
00:43:28No one's here.
00:43:34Look more.
00:43:35Still no one.
00:43:41You look weirder.
00:43:50Who is that?
00:43:50I'm the smartest kid in Staten Island.
00:43:55Einstein Funicello!
00:44:00Are you going to stand there or are you going to come in?
00:44:02Stand here.
00:44:04Come in.
00:44:04Stand here.
00:44:06Just come in.
00:44:22Tell her what you know.
00:44:25So you know that team of researchers that Willow's always talking about?
00:44:29It me.
00:44:31Is that supposed to impress her?
00:44:34Because it impresses no one.
00:44:36Well, when Willow asked me to find her five months ago, I did.
00:44:40She knew I was here?
00:44:43I told her that you were here working at the Queens Public Library in Queens ever since
00:44:50you graduated from Queens College, which is also in Queens.
00:44:55So why didn't she just find me?
00:44:57She just find me.
00:44:59Sure she has reasons?
00:45:02She just wanted to exploit me so that she could sell more fruit by the foot and Dunkaroos.
00:45:10She doesn't currently advertise any of those products.
00:45:14She's the worst person I've ever met.
00:45:16Oh come on, she's not that bad.
00:45:18Einstein just said she didn't care about the science.
00:45:22So?
00:45:23She didn't have to because you did.
00:45:26Willow had one skill, which is to get our name out there and she's still doing that.
00:45:31Well, she's like impossible to deal with.
00:45:36And um, how many people are you estranged from?
00:45:44Not that many.
00:45:45Your friends?
00:45:47Okay, all of them.
00:45:49Your dad?
00:45:50Well, I never even met him.
00:45:52Okay, your mom?
00:45:53She died.
00:45:54Still estranged.
00:45:56What's your point?
00:45:57My point is yes.
00:45:59Okay, Willow is a shit.
00:46:02But did you ever think that maybe you're a shit too?
00:46:06Wait, so you actually saw Bigfoot?
00:46:14Heard him?
00:46:17Smelled him?
00:46:19Why does your weird little mind always go right to smells?
00:46:24What did he look like?
00:46:28Well, he was tall.
00:46:33Well, I would hope so.
00:46:34And he was about our age.
00:46:44And he had eyes the color of earth.
00:46:48And when he looked at me, they were so incredibly kind.
00:47:03Oh my god.
00:47:06What?
00:47:06I can't believe I didn't pick up on this earlier.
00:47:09What?
00:47:12You and Willow always made fun of me because I wanted to marry Mothman.
00:47:17Wait, you actually wanted to marry Mothman?
00:47:18But in reality, you've had the hots for Bigfoot this entire time!
00:47:23Anyway, I only saw him that one time.
00:47:27He got scared off by a passing G27 bus and he disappeared.
00:47:40Did you ever use the device again?
00:47:44I wasn't ready for him.
00:47:46Are you ready now?
00:47:48I just wanted you to know that I was really excited to talk to you.
00:48:00You can ask anyone.
00:48:02My husband, my parents, even Einstein.
00:48:05You were practically all she talked about.
00:48:07I've looked up to you since I was 12, so I got nervous.
00:48:13It was disgusting.
00:48:15There's so much history between us.
00:48:18You were my best friend.
00:48:19And worst enemy.
00:48:21Wait, worst enemy?
00:48:24You thought that?
00:48:25I never thought that.
00:48:27I thought we were friends.
00:48:28Breezy said it.
00:48:30Well, yeah, throw me under the B27 bus.
00:48:33Well, that's why I got defensive.
00:48:36I thought you'd shut me out like you always do.
00:48:38I don't do that.
00:48:40Oh, please.
00:48:41You were the one who stopped talking to all three of us.
00:48:45Why?
00:48:46What did we do wrong?
00:48:48Was it because I ate Patti's cat food?
00:48:50Because I have a perfectly logical explanation for that.
00:48:55It looked delicious.
00:48:57No.
00:48:57It's because the Bigfoot Club was my life.
00:49:01It was our lives, too.
00:49:05And just when people finally started to care about us...
00:49:09It.
00:49:09Us.
00:49:10You quit.
00:49:12And we all had to find a way to keep it going.
00:49:15For the fame.
00:49:17Yes, but also for the science.
00:49:20That's not true.
00:49:22Did you ever see the Loch Ness Monster?
00:49:24Or you, Mothman?
00:49:25Or you, the Jersey Devil?
00:49:27No, because you didn't care like I did.
00:49:31Oh, piss into the oblivion.
00:49:33Really, Dot?
00:49:35I love lake monsters.
00:49:36You know I love lake monsters.
00:49:39You think I didn't want to see the Jersey Devil?
00:49:42He's got wings and a tail.
00:49:44Wings and a tail.
00:49:45You never believed in any of us.
00:49:49But we always believed in you.
00:49:51You threw the BFF 1000 into a dumpster.
00:49:56We dug it out.
00:49:57We maintained it for years.
00:49:59Technically, I did the maintenance.
00:50:01And just last month, it started making sounds.
00:50:06Here, listen.
00:50:08No, don't push that button.
00:50:12Listen to what we found.
00:50:14When did you put that hat on?
00:50:17This could be the scientific discovery of the century.
00:50:19Einstein?
00:50:20I sense that it's the real deal.
00:50:23Guys, something's wrong.
00:50:25You're sick?
00:50:27Say, uh...
00:50:29No, it isn't that.
00:50:32Listen, Dorothy.
00:50:33Do you hear it?
00:50:35Yeah.
00:50:36Yes.
00:50:37What's it say?
00:50:38Shh.
00:50:38She's concentrating.
00:50:41Hello, Dorothy.
00:50:44What is that?
00:50:45More like, who is that?
00:50:47It's the...
00:50:48I know.
00:50:50The Loch Ness Monster.
00:50:55No, Butt Burger.
00:50:56It's not the Loch Ness Monster.
00:50:57It's Bigfoot.
00:50:59Really?
00:51:00I think so.
00:51:04Let me listen closer.
00:51:06This is what you meant by closer?
00:51:08Be quiet, pea brain.
00:51:09This is how Dorothy thinks.
00:51:11Oh, kiss my asteroid, Rhysmopolis.
00:51:14Willow, I can't tell what's real and what's not anymore.
00:51:18What did she say?
00:51:20Mind your peacewax, will you?
00:51:22Willow, please.
00:51:23Dorothy.
00:51:24There's that voice again.
00:51:27What is it, Dorothy?
00:51:28I think that's the voice I heard when we were kids, except deeper, older.
00:51:38And closer too, right?
00:51:39Like, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really, really close.
00:51:44Why did he come back?
00:51:49Don't you realize?
00:51:51Don't you know?
00:51:53He wants to see you again, Dorothy.
00:51:55What if you feel the same way as you felt the first time?
00:52:08If getting everything you ever wanted isn't actually a cure-all for all of your problems and it makes you realize how alone you have been in art?
00:52:17Yes.
00:52:20Actually, exactly that.
00:52:23Well, deal with it.
00:52:26Because success makes all of us feel that way.
00:52:29I think I want to see him again.
00:52:37Can we come with you?
00:52:39This whole time, we never got to see our monsters.
00:52:44At the very least, maybe we can see yours.
00:52:49There's someone else we should invite first.
00:52:51Hey.
00:53:02Hi.
00:53:06So, I said some really mean things.
00:53:09Oh, it's okay.
00:53:10No, it's not.
00:53:15I'm not very good at making friends, and I'm even worse at keeping them.
00:53:19Well, I think that's because you're-
00:53:22The point is, I'm trying to be better.
00:53:27Thank you for still being a fan of my work.
00:53:30I think it's really cool, actually.
00:53:33I wish you could tell that to Davey.
00:53:36He thinks I'm crazy for moving out here.
00:53:40Wait, you moved here?
00:53:42From the Pacific Northwest, ironically enough.
00:53:46That's where I grew up.
00:53:47Did you ask Davey to come with you?
00:53:53He has a life back in Oregon.
00:53:56His family, his friends, his career.
00:54:00So, you don't have those things?
00:54:04I actually do.
00:54:05I was in my final year at Oregon State, and then Davey proposed.
00:54:17What did you say?
00:54:19I told him no.
00:54:21I had to leave to pursue my dreams.
00:54:24But Davey still believes in you, right?
00:54:32That doesn't last forever.
00:54:38Come on.
00:54:39I want to show you something.
00:54:54The Bigfoot Club.
00:54:56All in one place.
00:54:57The Bigfoot Club were convinced they'd found their monster, so they waited.
00:55:25But as time passed, there was no sign of him.
00:55:39After five hours of waiting in the cold, they grew restless.
00:55:55Breezy had her assistant pick her up and drive her back to the Bronx.
00:55:59Einstein took a yellow cab all the way to Staten Island.
00:56:13As for Dot, Willow, and Esme, they waited until just before dawn.
00:56:18Then, they gave up.
00:56:23Is she going to be okay?
00:56:43I think so.
00:56:45I should probably head home.
00:56:48Brooklyn?
00:56:48No, Dorothy.
00:56:50You've been to my house.
00:56:52Oh, right.
00:56:54Sorry.
00:56:54Wait.
00:56:57You know, I did look for you all these years.
00:57:01This was the one place I didn't want to check.
00:57:04Why not?
00:57:06You were my hero.
00:57:09If you gave up on your search, what hope did the rest of us have?
00:57:13Anyway, have a good night.
00:57:34You told me Bigfoot would show up.
00:57:35I know.
00:57:36I needed him to show up.
00:57:38Well, what do you expect me to do?
00:57:41You can't just call him over like some stupid dog.
00:57:44I like dogs.
00:57:46It's just that he's a creature with feelings.
00:57:50Dogs have feelings.
00:57:51I didn't say dogs don't have feelings.
00:57:54He had kind eyes, the color of the earth.
00:57:58Who told you I said that? Einstein?
00:57:59And he was, oh, so gentle.
00:58:02I don't sound like that.
00:58:04How do you know what you sound like?
00:58:05The bone conduction in your head makes your voice sound different.
00:58:08You're explaining bone conduction to me?
00:58:11Yes.
00:58:12Look, clearly you're exhausted.
00:58:16Why don't you just stay the night?
00:58:18You can sleep in my bed.
00:58:20I don't want to take your bed.
00:58:22It's fine.
00:58:23I usually sleep on the couch with Patty anyways.
00:58:26I'll just rest my eyes for a minute.
00:58:33But I'm not even that tired.
00:58:46Do you feel like you let her down?
00:58:48I don't want to talk to you.
00:58:50Well then call your friends.
00:58:53Or did you push them away again?
00:58:55Of course I feel like I let her down.
00:58:59She gave up her whole life because she thought I could help her find her monster.
00:59:04Maybe she did find her monster.
00:59:11Willow?
00:59:12Did you forget something?
00:59:13Hello?
00:59:27What are you doing here?
00:59:29You sent out that signal.
00:59:31I heard it.
00:59:32What do you mean?
00:59:36That signal was meant for...
00:59:43No.
00:59:45You're him.
00:59:50Bigfoot.
00:59:51No one's ever called me that name before.
00:59:56Well, maybe not to your face.
01:00:02I saw you when I was 15, right?
01:00:06Yeah.
01:00:07I'm sorry I ran away that night.
01:00:09I was scared for you.
01:00:10I understood.
01:00:11You looked scared.
01:00:15I was scared for you.
01:00:19Is this your dwelling?
01:00:22Yeah.
01:00:24Yeah.
01:00:24Are all those people you were with still here?
01:00:33No.
01:00:33They're gone.
01:00:35Except Esme and Sheila's asleep.
01:00:38So it's just us.
01:00:42Good.
01:00:50Hey, um, when we first met, you looked different.
01:01:15For a while, I thought I imagined it.
01:01:17Now I wonder if I did see it.
01:01:22You did.
01:01:24Can you show me?
01:01:28It's simple, really.
01:01:36Is this enough?
01:01:39Can I change back now?
01:01:40How do you do that?
01:01:49It's my natural form.
01:01:52My father said we developed this one so that we could hide from people.
01:01:58Because people want to hurt us.
01:02:02I guess he was right.
01:02:04Oh, what happened?
01:02:06I don't know.
01:02:07Something big and yellow hit me while I was crossing the street.
01:02:11A taxi?
01:02:12I don't know what it was.
01:02:13Here, sit down on the couch.
01:02:15I can help you.
01:02:15I can't believe you're here.
01:02:31I spent so much time thinking about you.
01:02:32Can I make a confession?
01:02:38Ever since we met that night, I've been thinking about you too.
01:02:45Really?
01:02:45Yeah, my mom and dad said I was going crazy.
01:02:53You were all I talked about for a while.
01:02:58I knew I had to come back to this place.
01:03:01And I remembered the area.
01:03:04The noises.
01:03:07The smells.
01:03:09Um, can you lift up your shirt?
01:03:11The shirt.
01:03:12The shirt.
01:03:15Oh.
01:03:20This is going to sting.
01:03:21It didn't sting?
01:03:34What does that liquid do?
01:03:36It, it disinfects the wound so that you don't get sick.
01:03:43Can I keep it when you're done?
01:03:44Of course.
01:03:53You know, I thought that might have been you.
01:03:58That day at the place with the, the boxes and the meats.
01:04:05It's called a deli.
01:04:06Oh.
01:04:08I thought I recognized your eyes.
01:04:11You remembered my eyes.
01:04:14I haven't stopped remembering your eyes.
01:04:19I remembered yours.
01:04:23But you look different now.
01:04:26Well, so do you.
01:04:29Did I say something wrong?
01:04:31It's just...
01:04:34We were kids then.
01:04:36It was a long time ago.
01:04:37We've both gotten older.
01:04:43How old are you now, anyways?
01:04:47I don't understand the question.
01:04:50Oh.
01:04:50Well, out here we mark life in time.
01:04:54Days, months, years.
01:04:56Days, months, years.
01:04:57How do you mark life out there?
01:05:01Well, there are two pillars.
01:05:06Birth and then death.
01:05:09That's it?
01:05:12There has to be more to life than just those two pillars.
01:05:18Does there?
01:05:19Yes, of course.
01:05:21Why?
01:05:24How have you marked life between those two pillars?
01:05:26I did a lot.
01:05:31I worked.
01:05:34I watched TV.
01:05:37And I played with my cat.
01:05:38All those exciting things out here.
01:05:49How have you marked life between those two pillars?
01:05:53I ate.
01:05:57I walked.
01:06:00A lot.
01:06:02I saw the world from all sorts of different places.
01:06:04But the thing I did the most.
01:06:10The thing that brought me the most fulfillment.
01:06:14As I spent time with my mom and dad.
01:06:17My brothers and sisters.
01:06:20My friends.
01:06:24Are they monsters too?
01:06:26Monsters?
01:06:28They're my family.
01:06:29No, I'm sorry.
01:06:30I didn't mean it like that.
01:06:34Are you hungry?
01:06:41Yes.
01:06:42I have pizza.
01:06:44Is it good?
01:06:46Uh-huh.
01:06:48Let me heat it up.
01:06:50Here.
01:06:52You can watch TV.
01:06:53Have you got everything?
01:06:55I will go over to that comedy guy and tell him we're through.
01:06:57And at the same time, I'll give him a piece of my mind.
01:07:00I don't blame you.
01:07:01Three cents a day.
01:07:03People in here are so little.
01:07:06Oh.
01:07:07That's a movie.
01:07:09I watch that one a lot.
01:07:13So, um, how many siblings do you have?
01:07:17I had five.
01:07:19But they're all gone now.
01:07:22What happened?
01:07:23They got hurt.
01:07:29And we didn't have that magic lip.
01:07:30Would you have?
01:07:31My mom died.
01:07:46She got sick too.
01:07:51She was the only person that actually liked me.
01:07:53Now she's gone.
01:08:00As we move closer to that second pillar, the world we come to know begins to disappear.
01:08:08And peace by peace, so we hold on to people just a little closer.
01:08:20That's why I wanted to find you, Dorothy.
01:08:23I'd like for you to come back with me.
01:08:25To the woods?
01:08:28Yes.
01:08:29Do you have, like, a house?
01:08:32No.
01:08:32Where do you sleep?
01:08:34Dirt.
01:08:35What about winters?
01:08:36They're cold.
01:08:37What do you do?
01:08:38My natural form protects me.
01:08:41I can't do that.
01:08:42I'd freeze to death.
01:08:44Oh.
01:08:46Right.
01:08:48I have an idea.
01:08:52You could stay here with me.
01:08:55Okay.
01:08:58Yes.
01:08:59You don't like that idea?
01:09:02My mom and dad warned me about this place.
01:09:05They said if people knew what I was, I'd be considered a freak.
01:09:09So you wouldn't survive out here either?
01:09:15It's not fair.
01:09:15I've waited so long for this moment to come, and I wasn't ready the first time.
01:09:21And now I am.
01:09:24What was that?
01:09:27Our pizza.
01:09:31Where are we going?
01:09:33This tunnel leads to the outside wall.
01:09:35We're making our escape.
01:09:39Well, are we allowed to do that?
01:09:42Go ahead.
01:09:45I'm sorry I got so upset earlier.
01:09:55It's okay.
01:09:57I want to be with you.
01:09:59I do.
01:10:02But we can't make it work.
01:10:05We can't?
01:10:06No.
01:10:10We just have to accept that we're different.
01:10:13Too different.
01:10:15We are.
01:10:19Yes.
01:10:36We are.
01:10:36We are.
01:10:37In the sky.
01:10:37Shine on, shine on, harvest moon up in the sky, I ain't had no loving since January, April, June or July, snow time, take no time to stay outdoors and spoo, shine on, shine on.
01:11:07On harvest moon for me and...
01:11:11Ollie, is that really you?
01:11:13Of course it's me.
01:11:15Gee, I'm glad to see you.
01:11:37Hey.
01:11:41Good morning.
01:11:44Where is he?
01:11:47Who?
01:11:48Bigfoot.
01:11:49He came last night, after he fell asleep.
01:11:52Bigfoot did?
01:11:53Well, he didn't call himself Bigfoot.
01:11:56What did he call himself?
01:11:58He didn't give me a name.
01:12:00I'm not even sure he has one.
01:12:03Are you being serious right now?
01:12:05Yes.
01:12:06How did Bigfoot get into your apartment?
01:12:09He just walked in the front door.
01:12:12But witnesses have described him as being over seven feet tall and covered in thick hair.
01:12:17I know how witnesses describe him.
01:12:19Wouldn't someone have seen him coming down the street, then up the stairs?
01:12:23The thing is, is that he can change into a human form.
01:12:26So, a regular guy came in here, said he was Bigfoot, and you believed him?
01:12:33Because I watched him transform right on this spot.
01:12:39And he didn't leave behind any evidence?
01:12:42Look, he ate some pizza.
01:12:48Backwards.
01:12:49Isn't that how you eat it?
01:12:52You don't believe me, do you?
01:12:54It was a long night.
01:12:55Maybe you just got confused.
01:12:58You came here because you wanted me to help you find Bigfoot.
01:13:01I know!
01:13:02It's just...
01:13:03This all sounds so...
01:13:06What?
01:13:07Crazy!
01:13:08Hey, that's me.
01:13:19Davey loves you, right?
01:13:23He does.
01:13:25And do you miss him?
01:13:27Very much.
01:13:29Then you should go home.
01:13:31Because, to me, leaving someone you love sounds really crazy.
01:13:38I took a risk.
01:13:42Haven't you ever taken a risk before?
01:13:56Go to a game.
01:14:03Go to a game.
01:14:08I know you don't care about podcasts, but our episode is on track to be my most downloaded podcast ever.
01:14:26It's getting a ton of mainstream press, and it is huge amongst the Bigfoot community.
01:14:32You should say BFC to save more time.
01:14:37Well, everyone in the BFC is saying the same thing.
01:14:41They love you, and hate me.
01:14:47Really?
01:14:48They were nostalgic for the Bigfoot Club.
01:14:51They just wanted us to reminisce about it.
01:14:54That would have been nice.
01:14:58Why did we ever stop talking in the first place?
01:15:00I used to think that it was because we wanted different things from the Bigfoot Club, but now I realize it's something else.
01:15:10After I saw him, I wanted to give up my search, and I knew you would never let me.
01:15:18You really were always the best at this.
01:15:20Willow, I saw him again.
01:15:28He came to my apartment last week.
01:15:32He can change from Bigfoot into a regular person.
01:15:38He asked me to go back with him into the woods, but I knew it wouldn't work.
01:15:44I fell asleep in his arms, and when I woke up, he was gone.
01:15:53I know it sounds crazy.
01:15:55You don't have to believe me.
01:15:58I do believe you.
01:16:01Really?
01:16:03I'm also very, very jealous.
01:16:06Of me?
01:16:08I haven't even seen my monster once.
01:16:10You've seen yours now twice.
01:16:13I know.
01:16:14I know you always thought I never cared about the science.
01:16:17That I only cared about the fame.
01:16:20But the truth is, I cared about both.
01:16:25I know you did.
01:16:30Hey, we're having Christmas at my house this year.
01:16:33I'd like for you to come and meet my husband.
01:16:36Is that okay?
01:16:39I'd like that.
01:16:40You realized something in that moment.
01:16:52What was it?
01:17:00It's like Esme said.
01:17:02I liked me better when I was missing.
01:17:09Shortly after we recorded this program, Dorothy March disappeared once again.
01:17:23Is Dorothy March still alive?
01:17:28If so, has she gone to live amongst the Bigfeet?
01:17:33I mean, Bigfoots.
01:17:35For now, her whereabouts remain an unsolved mystery.
01:17:41The first time of the week is...
01:17:42There we...
01:17:42I think you, in the end
01:17:47It was...
01:17:49She is getting sick
01:17:52When it was, when it was boiled...
01:17:53When it was okay?
01:18:01When it was all about the Olympics, it was awesome.
01:18:02Whether it was jibe, it was awesome!
01:18:03My lady jumped up now and I was able to play the world...
01:18:05I fell to her now and my daughter...
01:18:08Hi, Dot. Is it really you? Of course it's me. I'm sorry I was gone so long. I have a really
01:18:32good excuse though. I had to make you something. I call it the Loch Ness
01:18:37Monster Finder 1000. I heard the sounds. What do they mean? I think you know.
01:18:51She's close? Coney Island. In Brooklyn? We've been looking in the wrong place this
01:18:59whole time. Do you want to go see her? Really? You mean it? I already found my
01:19:10monster. Now I want to help you find yours. I ask again. What if we didn't accept
01:19:23conventional wisdom? What if we were all open to seeing our monsters and kept
01:19:32searching every single day of our lives?
01:19:37What then would we find?
01:20:07.
01:20:16.
01:20:19.
01:20:30.
