🍿 S06E04 - Capturing Bigfoot Reaction 🫈
Last week Blake and Karen spoke with director Marq Evans before any of them had seen his film. Now they have. Karen Stollznow and paranormal investigator Matt Baxter join Blake to react to Capturing Bigfoot, the new documentary built around a reel of 16mm film that sat in a family safe for more than half a century, and the Patterson family story that turns out to be even bigger than the footage. The film arrived on Prime Video on October 20, 2026, and the Bigfoot world has not been quiet since.

The side-by-side stills circulating online are only a sliver of the story. The panel digs into the confessions, the money, the broken families, and the people who were there, then turns to the question every skeptic has been asking this week: if the most famous piece of Bigfoot evidence ever filmed folds, does anything actually change? Plus a horse turns out to be carrying a very strange coincidence.
