Remember, your information could be the key to unlocking this mystery once and for all, so please don't hesitate to contact me at Bigfoot Society at gmail.com. All right, Bigfoot Society. I've got the privilege of talking with Mr. Eric Palacios tonight. He is a indie film producer, director with a background in investigative journalism. I've been wanting to talk to him for a while.

Eric, how's it going tonight? It's doing pretty good, Jeremiah. Thanks for having me on, man. Oh, absolutely. I'm going to give you the reins right away. One thing we want to talk about is you've had a really interesting encounter. And I know my audience loves to hear people talk about their encounters. And we've got some really important things to talk about at the end as well.

Those that are listening, you want to make sure you hit the entire episode for sure. But Eric, go right ahead, man. Yeah, so I really don't think I can talk about my encounter in full without kind of describing where it's located. We're here in the central Texas area. It'll be a little bit more specific. It's Williamson County. And we are part of the balconies escarpment, which is like a mini Grand Canyon. It's actually visible from space.

and it has creek runoffs, caves, and a lot of underground aquifers. And I've lived here pretty much my entire life, and that kind of feeds into an encounter that I did have in 2011. In 2011, it was a strange year because that was the worst drought Texas had ever faced. So there were a lot of water levels that were lower than normal. A lot of caves had been exposed and access to a lot of places that were normally off limits. and we took a short walk from my backyard into the Brushy Creek where a lot of this stuff happens. And like a normal summer day, it was June. We'd been out there fishing. It was about six of us.

We caught a lot of fish that day because there was pretty much a trickle into pools. It was so bad the drought was just that bad. It was trickles into little pools filled with catfish and bass and stuff like that. So we caught a lot of fish that day. And probably there for about six or so hours and it started getting dark. And as we were leaving, there's about six of us there, walking single file because it's a sloped area along the brushy creek. We were in a deeper area than we would normally be because the water was so low. So we were walking up at an angle.

And the best way to describe it is we heard pretty much like this massive sound like an elephant coming through the brush. And for whatever reason, we couldn't lay our eyes on it. It got really close. It had to be within about 10 feet of us. and we were six big boys. We had stuff to take care of ourselves out there, but we were all trembling little kids out there. And this thing was just crashing through the woods.

I would associate it with someone turning the car stereo up on a metal song and it just keeps staying louder and louder and finally have to reach out and grab them out to turn it down. That was where we were at. And one of the guys I was with bent down and grabbed the rock and threw it in that direction. And we never heard anything after that. and we walked that way across the creek and we made it back to our house.

Really didn't think about it for several years after that until we were all together and we started talking about it. And one of my buddies was like, oh man, what could that have been? And I started doing the deep dive here in my area. There's been a long history of Bigfoot Sasquatch activity dating back to the 1800s. So much so that there's a road right off the Brushy Creek called Harry Man Road. That's not a myth. That's the actual name of the road.

The street site says it and everything. And the legend goes, it was a kid's family passing through and covered wagon times. And the kid fell off the wagon and he ended up being strangled out there. And he became like a wild carry man or whatever. And that's the story we grew up with as kids hearing that. But I never really put too much thought into it. I thought it was just an interesting story. And that is when I started doing the research from a documentary, the Beast of Burshey Creek,

I found a page in a book from a guy who was actually the local postmaster in the area, and he written a book. And he detailed the night of this event that took place. It was a 1966 group of high school kids were hanging out on the Herringman Road after midnight. And one of the kids is that his name was actually Shorty Caldwell. We have all the names of the kids that were out there. Shorty Caldwell was the name of the boy who got stranded out there. And he says that he tells this amazing tale of being changed.

out of the Harry Man Road area by a giant hair-covered man, a being. And he got to school the next day and started talking about it. And the story kind of caught like wildfire. And a few years after that, it was officially named Harry Man Road. But it wasn't without it. It's people that were opposed to it. A lot of the old-timers didn't want that name for whatever reason being attached to that road. Some of the bigger names in the community would be like C-D-Rowel.

folks. We have a school named CD folks. He was one of the people that was raising a campaign to name, to rename the road for a bluff. And fortunately that never happened, but long, long history of Bigfoot activity in the area. And I guess I'm, with

that encounter that I had in 2011, unknowingly became kind of part of what's going on here. It's just, it's so very interesting, especially because you're close to Austin, Texas, right? Yeah, we're a little a bit north of Austin, but not that far, yeah, for sure.

Fascinating. And just to have all that, that Bigfoot history, I love your passion for investigative journalism. It comes out very, it just, it comes out super quick when you just start looking at the different things that you've put together. And I, I myself am a fan of that because I have, as you can imagine, I've got a lot of that myself. In fact, even tonight, I'm digging into, reports from actually a place in North Texas, Lake Texoma, up by the Oklahoma border, and people are reporting Bigfoot activity plus other things. As a person who's investigating, you're always looking into something. But I first heard about you, Eric, when I was looking into some FOIA stuff and your Media

Palace YouTube channel had come up. And it is just such a very interesting subject. mind sharing with the listeners what a FOIA request is? No, and Boyer request is a Freedom of Information Act request, and that grants us information from any or the majority of government agencies that, I wouldn't say withholding records from us. They just haven't obviously been released to the public. You have to ask for these things. If you don't ask, you never know what answer might be. That's what a FOIA request is in a nutshell. It's a way to get information pretty much. Yeah.

So interesting. And I've tried to talk to someone on this podcast that has done FOIA requests for Bigfoot related information. I've tried for years and I've been unsuccessful. So when I stumbled upon the Media Palace YouTube account, I've got to talk to Eric, he has been uncovering some incredible things. You uncovered more information about the incident. at the Mammoth Cave Park in Kentucky. Do you mind sharing a little bit about that? Yeah, that was one of the more interesting cases of me doing a FOIA request.

I had heard about this in 2019, which is around the same time I started getting into the subject. And it was huge news. CNN had covered in a bunch of the major news organizations I talked about, at least featured it on their website, if not devoted a segment to it. And so I was like, wow, that's interesting. never really gave two cents about it until I started doing a deep dive into research. And I was like, if it happened in a national park, that information should be public because it's federal. It belongs to everybody, that information at least. I did some digging on the

National Parks website, and I actually found the incident number that was associated with the event that had taken place. And for people that don't know what happened, the story goes there was a man out there with his son and they had witnessed a bigfoot, supposedly witnessed a bigfoot, and they were in such danger that he ended up shooting at. He fired a shot at it. There were witnesses in the area that approached the man and the man told him that he had shot at Bigfoot. And so it kind of spun out of control when the media got a hold of it. And there were all types of conspiracy theories and a little bit of everything going on with this. So I wasn't really sure. what I was going to find when I did the four-year request.

But with that incident number, I was able to write a detailed four-year request of the information that I wanted, dates, and everything corresponding to the event that took place. So I did that, and I waited, I want to say close to a month before I got anything back. But when I got it back, man, it was a treasure trove of information. We have almost everything on this guy. Really, the only thing we don't have because it's exempt from a. FOIA request is the identity of this person, but we have pictures of the gun that was used. We have the witness statements from when the police interviewed the witnesses that were on

location there. We have tickets that were written to the gentleman that fired the web. We have a little bit of everything. There was also two videos that the National Parks had, but unfortunately they wanted over $3,000 for those videos. And I wasn't really comfortable forking over that money without knowing what was on the videos. So I was like, yeah, I'll just stick to the reports. And like I said, we got kind of a treasure trobe of information. And I can go ahead and construct what really happened out there. So the guy was out there getting content for his YouTube channel.

And that becomes aware of when you read the police officer general report statement. He says, hey, this guy was prior to coming out here, we looked at, or prior to coming out here, he had made videos on his YouTube channel saying that he was going to come out to Mammoth Cave and go Bigfoot hunting. And if anything happens, he's going to run towards stave foot and not run away. Not only that, but we have the reports where the officer approached. The officer asked if he had a weapon. He denied having a weapon even though he had a gun hiding under the floorboards of his vehicle. And he got cited for that.

He got cited for lying to a police officer, lying to law enforcement. Now, I don't know how much faith you would have. having someone that's already lying to police to believe their Bigfoot story. Because when the cops approached him again, he didn't say one word about Bigfoot. He just pretty much said that his gun malfunctioned. He dropped it and his gun went off. Nothing about Bigfoot. The only ones that relayed that Bigfoot information were the witnesses.

There were three witnesses that were there that had been approached by this man that had claimed that he had shot Bigfoot. None of that happened. It was a complete fabrication of force. Unfortunately, I really wish the news agencies would have printed a redaction, but maybe they didn't do the FOIA request. They didn't do the footwork. And I know people had been working on this story for a long time. Researchers in Kentucky had been researching it, and they were saying, oh, it's us.

They were keeping it under wraps and local sheriffs. So the local sheriffs don't have anything to do with it. It's a federal park that the feds have jurisdiction over. In this case, it was the National Park Service. So that was my first big realization when I started doing these four-year requests, actually finding some information. And now I think it's honestly safe to close that file. We can close this one and move on to the next one.

That was my goal while getting into this FOIA request stuff. I wanted to see if I could find any breadcrumbs that might lead to other things like a 911 call maybe or a phone call. It's been really interesting doing this FOIA request and seeing some of these results. and I have a lot more that I've got coming up. So I'm really excited to put out what I'm working on. Oh, in the documentaries you've got on your Media Palace channel, you've got one on that Mammoth Cave. And it's so informative.

You've got all the documents. You've got the different things in the video. And listeners, you need to make sure you're subscribed to it. Hit the bell so you don't miss anything. And then just recently, you've got the video on, you got a 911, Bigfoot calls. from East Texas. There's some really interesting comments in that video.

That one was shocking. I didn't even think that was a real call, to be honest with you. I had heard about it through some secondhand stuff saying, hey, it was a big foot call that had taken place in East Texas. And I was like, whatever, it was probably just some media stunt or something like that. Someone made a post or something that got picked up. But I did the research, and I actually found, again, an incident number and an incident summary report from the Harrison County Sheriff's Department.

And the incident said that man calls Sheriff's Office to report Bigfoot on trail camera. And I was like, whoa, that's interesting. Let me see how far this goes. And again, I wrote the FOIA request, having that report member. I was able to put the date and everything, all the, all the necessary stuff that you need for a good FOIA request. I was able to put in here. And within, I want to say less than 24 hours, I got a response, which is really surprising. And it was totally legit.

It was a call that had taken place, the morning of September 10th to the Harrison County Sheriff's Office. The guy is pretty much stating, hey, I think I have Bigfoot on my trail camera. Who do I need to talk to about this? And they, oddly enough, the Harrison County Sheriff's Office transfers it to the Texas Game Board. That might not be odd. That might be their routine.

I'm still trying to figure out why it was transferred over. I haven't made it been successful in finding out why it was transferred. but it was transferred to the Texas Game Warden, and a Texas game warden went out there to investigate what was going on. I have the 911 call. I have the call sheets so we can construct a picture of what took place out there. And I do think it's interesting because it's not an outlandish 911 call. You hear some other, you've heard some other Bigfoot calls that are,

oh, this guy's in my front yard, we're all getting attacked or whatever. I'm not sure if those are 100% legitimate. I have here the folder that the USB was given on for these calls I haven't. There was a series of three calls we're taking. We have the reports for it. This is 100% a legitimate big foot 911 call. Let's go, girls. So you've been taking one of these little pink pills daily?

They took the photo. And so we had all of that stuff. And the people who've seen the photo, it's interesting. I'll just say that it's pretty interesting. And I'm working on the video that's going to be coming out on my channel, going into detail of what the witness said. I spoke to the witness. I have the unredacted police reports,

which is not normally the case. Normally they'll redact the identity of the person, but I have his unredacted. I was able to reach out to him. And at first he was like, how did you get my number, but I told him how I got him. He wasn't upset.

He was just surprised. He gave me a little bit of a rundown on why he called and the background of the game crime being there and the background of the area where he lived at. And it's all really interesting stuff in the photo. The photo, I think when people see that, they're really not going to know what to make of it. I'm interested to see what people think when they see it.

And if you haven't heard the phone call, check it out. It's pretty interesting. Again, it's, to me, it's one of the more credible calls because the guy seems very calm. He just wants them know what to do with this photo. And yeah, I think it's really interesting. And I'd really like to know what people think when they see the photo. So I'm looking forward to that. I'm excited for the follow-up because when I watched that video, I was pumped, man.

This is this is what gets me excited. But the UFO community, I feel, does a lot of FOIA requests. I feel that unless they're just not talking about it, I don't think there's a lot of people in the Bigfoot community that do FOIA requests. What do you think? Yeah, I'm surprised there isn't more people doing it. I think I've seen one other person do a FOIA. request for the subject, but you would think people seeing this and you've heard about these calls

being made and it seems like it would be a more frequent thing that law enforcement of some nature would have some type of record of calls taking place or emails being passed, which emails is, it's funny, I can actually talk about this year coming up. So I did a FOIA request for a, the Skelcape, Florida Skelpake in my Aka State Park, because I know there had been some coming out, reports coming out, and I was interested in doing that. So I was like, okay, cool, let me do a four-year request for these Skull-Kake reports. And so I did that a request for the, I believe it was Florida Parks and Wildlife or something for that effect. And I wrote it up and said, hey, give me any records you have of a scale case being reported in the park, being seen,

or anything like that. And not much, not long after that, I get a e-mail saying, we have have zero reports, zero anything of Skunkake or whatever. I was disappointed about that. But I pretty much took the same FOIA request that I had written, and instead of Skunker's reports, I put Bigfoot emails. When I did that, I got

15,000 hits when I did that. So the Fish and Wildlife, of Florida Fish and Wildlife, they have an email stating they have 15,000 emails containing the word bigfooting them. So that's a little interesting there.

So I'm working on getting a portion of those emails. Unfortunately, with that amount, 15,000 emails, they wanted to charge me about $3,000 to get all those emails. So I kept narrowing it down. I was like, how much for $1,000? I still too much. How much for, you know, 800 is still too much. So I think we settled on 250.

That's what I can afford right now. So hopefully I'll be able to get the rest of those at some point. But I have coming to me hopefully very soon, 250 emails don't know the contents of them but they do relate to Bigfoot so that's going to be an interesting find once I get those and I might need some help digging into that I don't know Jeremiah would you be interested in helping me dig through some of those I'm not going to say no my friend I'll never say no to looking through Bigfoot stuff it's such a it's such a fascinating topic the whole FOIA thing I'm personally interested so two times you found incident

I think you said incident numbers on websites regarding the situation. Can you go into any details about how you were able to find those or any tips regarding that? Yeah, it's really just a lot of digging, man. The national parks, they release their incident summary reports for a year, for a yearly thing. I think every, I want to say towards the end of every year, I could be wrong about that. Okay. But they just released the one for 2003. And it's really hard to go over.

It's just like a notepad, if you will, of documentation. It looks like code almost when they release it. It's not easy to look through, but you're able to find some interesting stuff on there. It is not keyword searchable, so that makes things a lot tougher. And the other thing that kind of got harder is that before, if you wanted to do a FOIA request, there was a website portal that you were able to do that that was provided by the government. You could go on there, submit your FOIA request. you could submit one request to multiple agencies and you would get your you know oh we're submitting here's the process or here's where it's out now and they kept you up to date of how your request was doing or where it was at unfortunately that website was removed last year in September so now if you want to do a FOIA request you have to go to the organization that you want to get that information from and write the email detailed email there's no portal for you to check the process you just have to go to the organization you have to the organization you want to get that information from and write the email and write the email there's no portal for you to check the process you just have

have to keep sending emails back, which is a little disappointing. It did make things a little bit harder, but it's still able to, you can still do it. If you just know, if you have something that you want to look for, you have some information, I would, you know, anything would help. But yeah, it's getting a little bit more difficult, but it's still doable. Gotcha. I would really hope that more people jump on it. I know, like you said, the UFO communities, you're seeing a growth spurt with everybody

kind of doing their four-year request in that area. and I think if more people start doing this stuff for Bigfoot, we would get some really interesting information. I even think that let's, before I get into anything more, and I'm going to have a disclosure before the end, before the beginning of this episode, if listeners choose to do stuff like this, you've already heard that there could be cost to do it.

So do your due diligence before you do a FOIA request, and you are responsible, of course, for anything that happens. But I think that if the Bigfoot community, if more people were to do this like you were, it could lead to things maybe even like more disclosure or who knows where it could lead. No, I agree with you. I'm looking for breadcrumbs. When I submit these four requests, I'm looking for phone calls and reports, obviously, emails,

anything that breadcrumbs to something bigger. I'm really hoping to maybe someone has like a video or a really clear images they shared It hasn't found mainstream or something like that. I know it's like far fax, but you never know. I mean, I've already got one picture doing a full-year request. So it's like, what else is that there? And I've only been doing it for about a year. We've got the phone call.

We've got the picture. I've had some other reports. We talked about the Mammoth Cave one. I can talk about another incident that was, you know, at a chance. It was one that took place in Dino Park, Colorado. Okay. This is weird, okay? I found this on the National Park website again,

and it did have a summary there. and an incident summary report number. The incident summary was like three sentences, and it says, campers see a pile of bones and claimed we have seen big foot in the area. That's all it said, really short, whatever.

So I was like, wow, that's weird. I had the report number, so I wrote the full-year request sent it out. I get back the typical national parks leaflet, the way they would send their email back, the way it's structured, blank, completely blank. And I'm like, what's going on?

here. I've never had that before, and I've had multiple requests that I've done with them. Why is it blank? So I look at the email that followed out. And I'm looking through it, and it says, it does say that there was Bigfoot reported there. People had seen strange bone piles in that area. They reported to the Ranger. The Ranger was medically incapacitated to go out there and check, is what they said. He refused to go out there and check. And normally, with the Ranger, FOIA requests for the national parks. We have the name of the Ranger,

we have the name of the person that submitted the incident report. This was completely blank. And I think the reason they said it was medically incapacitated is because they could use a HIPAA exemption and not have to give out that Rangers information. To me, this one was really weird. You have people saying they saw this and you have the Rangers saying,

hey, a medically incapacist, Is that really what happened? Or are they just saying that because we can go all types of ways with it here. And it was smart for them to say he was medically incapacitated because for that, we'll never know who this person was because it's a medical condition or whatever. It falls under the HIPAA exemptions, which FOIA unfortunately does have some exemptions that, you know, and it's weird when you get an exemption for Bigfoot because it's like the exemptions are typically for national security, ongoing investigations, things.

of that nature. To get one on a big foot exemption on a big foot request, that's a little interesting. I've had a few, and I can talk about that a little bit later, but yeah, for whatever reason, this guy claimed to be medically incapacitated and refused to go check out

and this big sight of the place in Colorado. This is getting wild, dude. Oh man. I got some questions for you. Can you walk us through what in your mind makes a best case scenario

or successful FOIA request like how you go about that. Oh yeah, that's a good question. If you can find an incident number, you're golden. If you have one of those, you're going to get some information back. And if you get an exemption for that,

that's even weird. I think that's weird than getting no information if you get an exemption. But definitely if you have a report number, if you have a date and time, what happened, if you have some contacts, of what happened.

Names, street, street names, general areas, things of that nature. What was reported keywords like that, bone piles, like I mentioned in the southern one, bone piles, things like that. But if really, if you can find a report number, you're going to be

in good shape there. Doing broad searches, like I'm doing now, hey, Bigfoot emails or whatever, you might be able to find some stuff like that for sure. But again, the way I structured them, I was looking for certain information, So you can just get bombarded with a nonsensical, like, email links and stuff from them saying, you know, oh, hey, this is all we have or whatever.

So, yeah, I would say, really, if you have a date and time, location, things like that, they're probably going to be your best bet. If you have a report number, instant report number, you're cold. Yeah, it's really just, and the other thing is you can just throw some hooks out there like you're fishing. It doesn't cost anything to do a FOIA, but if you want the information, that might cost you something. Okay, so it's going to get to a point. where they'll be like, yeah, we have stuff. And if we go any further, it's going to cost you money.

That's going to happen. Yeah, exactly. And I can go into detail on another one that I did recently. Okay, sure. I should be getting this one back here. Yeah, I'm sure you're probably familiar with the Beast of Bray Road. Oh, don't even. Are you kidding me?

Okay. I did a DNR request for the Wisconsin DNR or whatever. No way. Today, you know, I want all the information you have on, I'm not going to give the keyword away. But yeah. Because it's still an ongoing process. I don't want it to get ruined.

I said, hey, I want all this information we have on this stuff or whatever. And they've been very responsive. And they're saying, okay, cool, we'll give you that information, but we're going to bill you up front. And I'm like, okay, wow, that's kind of, but could they have, you know, 15,000, 150, you know, reports on this stuff? That's really interesting. Would I be mad if they're like, hey, it's going to be five grand,

But we have pictures and audio and all types of. Who knows? I don't know. But I am working on that and they've been very responsive. And I'm hoping it's not a crazy number. And if it is, you might see me on like a go fund or something. Because I want that information, man. I definitely watch it.

Yeah, exactly. I think people need to know. Yeah. I know there's a lot of people in the Dogman community that would be very interested in what the Wisconsin DNR has. Oh, my goodness. That's amazing, Eric. Yeah. It's not only the Wisconsin DNR, but I'm also doing the, it's the city Elkhorn. It's Wilworth County. I believe it's Woolworth County. I did it for the sheriff's office there.

And if I'm not mistaken, I don't remember, I believe the gentleman's last name, I shouldn't say his last name. Yeah, don't. But he was featured in a documentary. He was featured in a documentary about the subject. And he had mentioned this werewolf folder they had. Now, if a government agent, a government employee has a were folder. That's public information. You can't hide that. So I sent that out saying,

hey, I want that. I want anything and everything. I'm like, here's a clip of him saying he has that, or he wrote that. So you guys cannot deny that. An employee says he has that. And then multiple people in the sheriff's office knew about it.

So I want it. And I haven't heard back from them yet. That was only a couple days ago, but the DNR of their response. And they have about 20 days, to respond. Different FOIA requests, different areas, they'll give you a deadline. In Texas, we have 10 days. Okay. Wisconsin may have 20 days. It's taken down, man, taking down. We're going to get some type of response. So that answers one of my other questions. What I was going to

ask you, can this be used for other cryptids too? And I mean, there's the answer. You're looking into dog man right now. Definitely, definitely. I would assume. Yeah, I mean, yeah, I was never really sure about it until I started doing the digging. And I'm going to tell you about it. other one here and I might get some black for this one but I have documentation for it. Yeah, this one, I'm sure you've heard about the LBL stuff and all that stuff. Oh, man, Eric. Hold on here because there's been a lot of talk about that stuff and there's a supposed massacre that took place and everything.

I don't really, I'm not sure how I feel about that and I wanted to find out. Yeah. And so I did FOIA request on hate and I wrote one that I felt from all the information online and fit what the information I was looking for. And it was a little bit harder because that we really don't have anything solid on that. So you have to speculate a lot on that. And I did.

And so I sent that in. And I didn't get anything for that time period. Okay. For the time period of, I think they said it was like late 70s, 80s, this event took place. Didn't find anything there. So I'm not really sure about that. But I did get a right.

report from 2021. A man was fishing there in the lake, and I have the report here too, the man was fishing in this lake, and he reels in a skull. He reels in a skull on the end of his line. He thought it was a catfish. And we have no idea who that person was, how they died, anything like that. But we do know this person fishing reeled in a skull in that lake. The police were called, the, I believe the coroners and everything like that. They were all called to the area. And we do, I have that report with some redacted information in there, but I was never really sure on the LBL type of stuff. And I'm still not sure, but finding that was like, that's creepy and weird. Let's go, girls.

So I really don't, I can't really say anything other than what I'm seeing on the reports. And that to me, that's pretty creepy. You're fishing out there. You think you're catching a big catfish.

and you're reeling the human skull. Now, I don't know about you, Jared Nair, but when I go fishing, I'm not thinking about reeling a skull. Yeah, that's not on my, that's not on my goal list to get the skull. Just a nice bass would be good. That's incredible. Hats off to you to, for really, you're thinking outside the box, I thought you were just a big foot guy, but man, you are,

you're going all over the place. Another cool thing I got from that is that at the beginning, we're talking about national parks, but you're also going into DNR. And I was going to ask is, so let's say I'm from Iowa and I'm looking into certain state parks or forests or something like that. It sounds like it's just, it's being very, you have to find the email to send the request to. And then you're just sending an email that says, hey, I'm looking for things of this nature. Do you actually have to drop the phrase, I'm doing a FOIA request or will they know what

you're doing. No, you have to say this is a Freedom of Information Act request. Okay. Under this statute, and typically I'll name the statue of, you know, if it's a federal statute, I'll name the federal statute for the FOIA request. If it's statewide, you can find that online. I'm not sure the one for Iowa, but yeah, you can find any, it is best to state that. And with a FOIA request, you want to be as direct as possible. Again, like I said, just changing a couple words can get you some information. can get you, not deny, but don't want to get you as middle.

They'll just be like, no, we have no information like that. Change a couple words and then get 15,000 results. So yeah, it's an interesting gamble when you do one of these four requests, what you're going to get, and you're not going to do anything. And I've had some that said, like I told you, the Florida fishing game, though, I had multiple ones that say, no, we have zero on this. We have zero on this. I'm telling you about a lot of the successful ones,

but with that, there's been a plethora of unsuccessful ones that I've had, where I've seen reports that have been reported on the, the BFRO or the WoodAid Conservancy, where they have maps and stuff like that. And I'll look and see, hey, there's anything reporting here? And I've come up dry on a lot of that stuff. For every 10 you do, 20 you do, maybe you'll get one or two that has something you might be able to buy it on there. But yeah, there's a lot of failed ones for the ones that I've mentioned today.

But we're still getting information here. That's the main rule. We want to try to make, at least what I'm trying to do is make this a little bit more serious to where if I'm talking about it in the public setting away from the community, people will be like, wow, that's really interesting. And I can believe you because you have the documentation to prove it. And I think that might draw on some more people or might get people changing their method maybe. I'm not trying to change the world, but it would be awesome if more people reached out and did some of their own. Maybe they have some information that's an event that took

place in the area and we can help them do a FOIA request on it and see what we get. I'm always willing to help somebody out. I've got ideas that I'm probably going to try myself. And you said you can do this with the sheriff's departments as well. Now, I've heard some people when they're looking to see if a sheriff's department or police department has info, they'll just call directly and ask. Have you tried that route as well? I have tried that. The most recent one that I called was an event that took place in Washington.

It was a siding that was supposedly took place near a roadside. and the news agency said that the witness had contacted the sheriff's office. And so I called the sheriff's office and said, hey, I'm looking for this information or whatever. And they're like, no, we don't have anything on that. We heard about that too, but we don't have anything on that. And you get that from other reports that you're looking into. Again, the got one of heard any of his feelings, but one of the bigger 911 calls was the Bayer County in San Antonio, of the homeless couple that said they had seen a big fool trumping through the woods or whatever.

So I did a FOIA request for the sheriffs, from the police department there, and they had no record of it. I'm not saying, I'm not sure how legitimate that might have been. I know it was featured in like a couple of films and documentaries, but I wasn't able to find any reports, any documentation on any of that stuff.

And again, I'm not trying to debunk this stuff. I'm just trying to, you know, oh, that'd be cool. Let me get the police report from the guy went out there or something like that, you know, the call log. But yeah, you never know if that's trying. It's a inadvertent.

It doesn't hurt to ask unless they're going to charge you an arm and the legs. Exactly. Then that might hurt a little bit. But you can always, you can say no. It sounds like it's not going to come out of nowhere on you, thankfully. Yeah, no, most places will tell you in advance. Or when you write the FOIA request, I'll, normally I'll write in the FOIA request, hey, if there's any charges or whatever I'd like to be informed beforehand.

And that's probably the best movie to do is just go right back on the FOIA request. Good idea. Any extra billing, let me know. Let's say, let's take a hypothetical situation. Let's say you were to look into a certain, you knew a certain area of a state, a certain region of a state was very squatchy. Would you drill down, maybe look at certain counties, certain county sheriff's office and then go one by one? Or what would maybe your plan of attack be if you? That's the way I've been doing it so far.

I've been going one by one, yeah. I haven't really found any other way to do it. And I am going one by one, but one by one in the sense of like one of the most reports I've seen taking place in areas like that. So starting off with the maybe more populated areas, like you said, most squatchy or whatever, starting with those areas and working my way down. But yeah, one at a time, sending them out with as specific as I can, the information that I'm searching for.

And yeah, it's some states are more. or some sheriff's office are more willing to accommodate than others. And some are, like, you didn't fill out this thing properly or whatever. So we're not going to do your request or we're going to deny your request. But you don't really get that from a lot of agencies. But no, like I said, I've tried several places here in Texas. And I've had a handful of success. And that's a lot of counties in my area.

I'm not sure how many, but there's a lot in Texas, a lot of counties. So just working through it. And yeah, hopefully when I'm done with Texas, I'll move on to something else here. I don't think listeners need to realize it might sound scary like calling a sheriff's office. But I think if you're just honest and like I've done this myself, I called in an office in, I think it was a Marshall County, Tennessee. And hey, have you had any Bigfoot reports? And I actually was able to talk to an individual that was involved with a with an investigation. quite a while back a few years ago, but he was like, oh, yeah, I totally went to that area.

And sometimes you never know what will happen unless you just try. And there's no harm in trying. But not at all. Yeah, you know harm in asking. And that's awesome that you actually got some information from a call like that. That's crossed to you. I was surprised. It can be, yeah, it can be a ministerial calling the sheriff's office.

And you're attempting to find Bigfoot stuff or whatever. But you never know. They might be, you might have someone on the other line. It gives you all the information you need. So who knows? I got some good ones, man. I'm working on a few. Every one of these I'm trying to make a video for.

I'd like to do the Mammoth Cave video on the rest of these. I want to show the documentation for everything. Everything I'm talking about, there's some form of data, whether that be a phone call record, eyewitness statements, things of that nature. So I did the Mammoth Cave one, which showed all the tickets of the guy line, pictures of the gun. We don't have photos of his ID, even though they were.

were adapted. We have the pictures of his ID, pretty much everything. And with this next one that I did for Texas for the 911 call, about the same. We have the call statements when the cop was out there, when the call got transferred, the 911 call itself and the photo. So it's, yeah, I'm trying to compile these into video essays, if you will, just to give everybody all the information. And we can leave it where it is or maybe come to a conclusion and move on to the next one, like the mammoth cave one. I think we can put an X into that one and move on to the next one. So we're here on this Texas one, and the photo, I hope for maybe we get some video analysis on it or photo analysis on it to get a breakdown and we'll get some more information on it.

I am planning on going out to Harrison County, Texas, to speak with the witness. And hopefully that'll happen when the weather starts getting a little bit better here in Texas, maybe in the spring. So I'm going to go out there, going to go to the location where the picture was taken. and all that good stuff. But yeah, I have a lot of information I'm waiting to get back. And that's the thing with the FOIA request is they can take a few months to get back. I think the longest one that I was waiting for took three months to get back.

Wow. And that was part of the, that was part of the Manif King stuff. It took about three months for me to get information on that. So it does take a little bit of getting that stuff back. But I think I have a lot of irons in the fire that are, should be on the, I'm going to way back now, so I might have maybe a couple that I'm going to have to juggle to see which one I'm able to put out first. But the LBL one I might end up doing sooner than later because I had got that information about a year ago. Kind of kept it under my belt while I was doing some more research.

But yeah, I mean, I have the report and he is heavily redacted, but it's there. And I'm just trying to get a little bit more information to break it down to a video. Yeah, that's one of the ones that I'm working on next. and the Texas photo one. So everybody's going to have a chance to see the photo, give their opinion. I'm really excited about that. Eric,

I'm going to be honest, you're involved with a lot more cool stuff than I had realized. This is very exciting stuff. Yeah, thank you. I appreciate that. It means a lot of coming from you. I really admire the show,

and you've had some really amazing guests on and the production quality. It's awesome, man. So definitely deserve everything you're getting right now. Yeah, for sure. Appreciate that. Do you have any, fun investigative things you're involved with in your local area.

You've got all these things going in other states, but anything going on home base right now? Yeah, like we talked about in the beginning, the Brushy Creek has a long history of not only weird, Bigfoot stuff, I guess you could say, but just a lot of weird stuff in general. Like I'll give you an example. My backyard, the childhood home I grew up in,

about 50 feet away from our backyard. In 2014, they found three ancient Native American bodies there. We have no idea how old they are, who they were. We have none of that information. Unfortunately, because Texas, there's a wall that allows the construction company to hire their own apologies to examine the body or the bones. So nine times out of ten, you're going to get some guys like, oh, nothing to see here. Go ahead and build the road.

Go help and build the neighborhood. That happens all the time. Unfortunately, we have no idea how. how old those people were, but we can gauge an idea from another ancient body that was found right along the Brushley Creek in Leander. I believe it was in the 1970s, they found an ancient Native American woman along the Brushy Creek, and they titled it the Leanderville woman. In the 1970s, in the 1970s, I believe they dated her to about 13,000 years old.

And that was back then. With the advances now, it could be way older than that. And that was just right along the Brush and Creek. So people have been in this area for a really long time. The Tonkua tribe would actually call this Takachua Puetsu, which translates to the land of the good water. That's what they called it. This was like their literal paradise. And the Tonkawa, they were an interesting tribe, man.

They had full-body tattoos, like what you would think with the islander culture. They had full-body tattoos. They didn't really wear a lot of clothing in the summertime because it gets crazy hot in Texas. but once a year they would put on a big celebration for their deity, which was a giant wolf, and they would wear wolf pelts and just dance around for a few days and celebrate this wolf deity. And that's all in the area that we're at right now

with all these screens and counter stories. And not only that, but I can't believe I almost forgot, the Roman coin that was found in the 60s. They found a Roman coin right along the Brushy Creek again. and it was really strange because it was found at the bottom of an Indian burial mound. And the person who found it took it to the professor at the University of Texas. And there was a little bit of a controversy there because one professor didn't believe it was authentic from a Roman. He believed it was from a World War II veteran coming home and had collected that as spoils of war.

He was walking along the Brushley Creek and dropped it. And a rod and grabbed it and burrow it underneath. And that's how it got to the bottom of an Indian. That's his theory at least. But the other professor knew the person that found the Roman coin. They had grown up together and been arrow hunting. They learned under the same gentleman about how to relic hunt. And he had seen it.

I 100% believe that guy. I believe it. There's no, he would lie and all this other stuff. And the other guy, the professor that denied it, he actually refused to go to the area where they found it. He didn't go there until four or five years later. And by that time, things had already been constructed. There was a road, some other stuff.

But yeah, just a lot of really weird happenings along the Brushy Creek area. And that's really what drove me to do my first documentary was just accumulating all this really weird information. And I didn't mean for it to become a documentary. I just knew I was gathering this information. I wasn't sure what it was going to be. But it ended becoming the documentary. And through that, I actually found some more really weird stuff that kind of ties into the four-year request. And I remember, if you remember at the beginning, I talked about four-year requests I had done in my area for some Bigfoot stuff that tick-click.

And I can talk about that if you want. It might get a little spicy there, there, Jeremiah. I just got to clear your heads up on that. We can go for her and see what happens. We can go for it. I can always add it if it gets too weird. Okay. I just wanted to check with you.

Yeah, yeah. It's going to get a little. Okay. So this, this, in 2016, I'm just going to be straightforward. I was investigating some bodies that had popped up in the Brushy Creek. 2016, there were three bodies that, for one reason or another, ended up in the Brushy Creek. To this day, we don't know the identity of one of the people. We have no idea if it was a man, woman, how old they were.

We have no information on that. The other two were men in their 40s. The police and everyone has said, They died from natural causes. Let's go, girls. So this is the little pink pill everyone's been talking about. Yep, that's Addy. Good things do come in small packages.

Mabelene, New York. The world isn't getting any calmer. Economic instability, global conflicts, and record national debt have created an environment where financial uncertainty is a part of everyday life. And while none of us can control those forces, we can control how prepared we are for them. Market swings are hitting retirement accounts and savings harder than ever, leaving many Americans wondering how to protect what they've built. That's why people are exploring physical gold and silver as a part of a broader strategy. These are tangible assets with a long history of being used when confidence in traditional markets waivers. They're not a promise of returns and they're not a replacement for existing investments.

And nothing to see here, no foul play. Two of those bodies were actually six days apart.

So it's weird. That would happen like that. And this was all in the same year that the area I live, Brown Rock, was named one of the top ten safest cities in America. So you're talking about safest cities in America, but you have a couple of bodies popping up in the creek. Whatever. I started researching that.

And when I started researching that in 2017, for whatever reason, we had a giant influx of Bigfoot activity, I guess you could say that. People were in groups, Facebook groups, and all they were talking around town and talking about things that were taking place. The Harry Man Road had been closed for a while. They said it was for construction. A lot of really weird stuff happening.

And that kind of culminated into a gentleman posting a video of this tall, skinny thing. I haven't seen a video, but everybody has told me what they saw. multiple people told me what they saw. It was a tall, stony thing walking across the creek in a certain area. And the reason I've heard about this is because I was in a Facebook group saying, hey, does anybody heard me any more information about this stuff going on or whatever?

This was later. This was in like 2020, later when I started working on the documentary and stuff like that. And they said, oh, you need to reach out to this guy. This guy took a video and he posted in one of these groups and he got in trouble and all this other stuff. At least five different people told me the name of this person that put out that video. And at least five other people said that guy had been hanged off.

He had been, got in trouble or some weird stuff going on. Who knows? Not really sure. But in 2017, this is a fact, you can go and check it out. An agency, I'll say that. An alphabet agency actually put out a reward for the capture or, information to the capture of Bigfoot. This is all fact.

You can go look it up. I have the emails that were sent from the chief police in my area to an alphabet person. Not only a person, we know who this person was because it was in the email. This person that works for this alphabet agency was the head of that agency in Texas. And I did a little bit of digging on that guy. and in his bio, it says that he's in charge of secret information and at least 10 overt or covert secret bases inside of Texas. This is all in his bio. This is public information. This was the guy that the chief police sent the email to. And then the guy responded saying, hey, we're going to send

you all types of anything you need to capture Bigfoot. We're going to offer a $500,000 reward. Jeremiah, have you ever heard of one of these agencies offering a fake reward? Yeah, no. Don't you get these emails? We have them. It became public. It was public. And a lot of people were saying like, oh, this is a stunt for the local community or whatever.

If it was a local thing, why was a federal agency offering a reward for it? Okay. Not only that, but the same day that reward came out, the information. about the reward came out, there's a report on the BFRO in the same area, the same wording that this agency put the report out on. In the same area, there's a BFRO report, same date, a very detailed encounter from a person that actually took me two years to find out who this person was, but I found out who he was. And he had seen something going through his trash or his composting that he had in his backyard and seen something going through there. This was the same day

this bulletin came out. All really weird. So it makes you think the agency monitoring that site and putting up fake stuff, or did they see it and decided to put out a wanted for that? Really weird stuff going on. Not only that, but the next closest report, it was the next day. The next day, there was another report. There was another report the next day about 10 miles east.

Oh, my goodness. Someone had seen something from. crossing the road and it jumped a fence at one of our state parks, the balconies state park, which is a really interesting, beautiful area that is weird because they don't let you stay overnight. They don't let you film out there. There's no drone stuff out there. Really weird area. I would love to do some stuff out there, but yeah, I eventually hope they'll be able to do that there. Yeah, to me, this is like a smoking gun of stuff taking place. You're having all these accounts.

This guy had said he had filmed something. Multiple people had said, hey, we saw the video that guy filmed. You need to talk to this guy. And I reached out to that guy. And he said, in very short words, he says, yeah, I did. I have all these emails and everything. He says, yeah, I did film it. And I signed a non-disclosure remit.

Sorry, I can't talk about it. Pretty much what he said. Non-disclosure with whom? Yeah, yeah, exactly. All right. And yeah, it gets pretty weird, man. To me, this is like, yeah, I don't want to say too much about the cover up or anything like that. But do you remember, I was talking about breadcrumbs, finding some breadcrumbs.

There's a lot of dang breadcrumbs here, man. There's a lot. Why would a federal agency put out a reward in a bulletin like that from an actual, not just an employee, but the head of the agency in that area? What's going on there, man? and $500,000 that's, you know, it's all really strange and weird to me, man. And so I did a FOIA request on this.

Oh, my goodness. I said, hey, this is the day I have all the information. This really happened. Give me the information. And it was exempt. I said, sorry, you can't give you that information. We cannot give you that information. I'm like, what the heck?

Why can't you give you that information? And they listed their terms. I miss is either national security threat. It's an ongoing investigation. There are people that have some influence involved, possibly. There's a lot of really weird. It shouldn't have been, it shouldn't have been an exempt. It should have just been, oh, we have nothing on that.

That was a joke or something. That says to me that everything that you said is probably true. If they're like, no, we're not going to give you any. That's nuts, dude. Yeah, I've been trying to get an interview with that person, the top guy there, the one who put out this watch. And a couple of months later, he retires. And now he works for a gigantic oil company as their security or as their whoever,

their big security, drilling, whatever. I'm going to tag allegedly onto my last statement just because I'm paranoid. I told you it was going to get a little. You did. But I have everything for this, man. I have the data for it. This is real. I have the emails, people sent me, the messages.

is I have everything. I have the guy saying, hey, I signed a non-disclosure agreement. I can't talk about that. He goes into a little bit more detail. I really won't say too much on that. Yeah, sure. Yeah. He went into some detail on it and came to the location where it was.

Okay, not only that, but we're talking about 2017. I keep forgetting stuff now. It's popping in my head. We're talking about 2017. So in 2019, I'm sorry, in 2018, we had a giant caving, and one of the neighborhoods off of Brushy Creek. Okay. There was a caving and it went for, I think they said that they found,

made in the finding like 12 chambers or something crazy. Airflow down there, water down there. And I'll just say that the person said, hey, I had found something. The guy who didn't take the video said, hey, I had found something. And I told them about this area prior to the cave gang, this many months prior to the caving. And I don't know if that has anything to do with it, whatever, but it was really interesting.

And in this area, there are just so many caves. While researching it, I found a document from the University of Texas for Lunking Group. They documented about 300 caves in the area. Now, they're estimating there could be around 3,000 caves discovered in the area. Some of these caves go for a really long way underground. I know there's a cave in Longhorn Cavern, which is south of us, that they just discovered these cats, prehistoric cats. They're like three miles underground in pitch black.

They're like, how did cats get back here? It makes no sense. They're trying to figure it out too. But like bones of iron. Bones of them, yeah, multiple bones down there. And they really couldn't figure out how they could go miles in the darkness like that. Oh, yeah. Really weird stuff.

But just a bunch of caves, caverns, and weird stuff in my area. So that's, I'm working on a couple of more documentaries that should be out here soon. That's awesome. The next one is pretty much buttoned up. Yeah, it takes a deep dive into the area. We're actually going into the Brushy Creek. I talked to some witnesses that had some really amazing encounters that are the typical Brushy Creek encounter.

I want to say typical, but it's the same fashion of people being aggressively chased out of the area. Oh, wow. That's something that goes back again to the 1960s encounter of Shorty Caldwell being chased out of the area off of Harryman Road. Almost every person I've talked to had said it was aggressive. us out of the area. And I just thought of another one that had happened. I had got an email from someone that said that they have heard about, there was a video up on it too that was removed. They had heard about an encounter that took place off of the Brushy Creek in my county where a school bus had stopped next to the tracks and something had came out and hit the side of the bus. The kid saw it,

the bus driver saw it. I was doing the digging to see if I could get some information on that. and then there was a video kind of describing a little bit of this you can't find it anymore the link is a dead list scrubbed from YouTube you think or scrubbed from YouTube and yeah it was really weird but I was trying to get some more on that

but it is just like a weird area man and not just big foot related there's just a lot of activity that I probably shouldn't talk about weird stuff man you know what I know Texas is your main goal right because that's where your home bases Dude, someday I would love to see you just go into Oklahoma Bigfoot and just find some stuff.

That would be nuts. I've done some, I've done some little bit of digging there. Oklahoma has some interesting FOIA logs, though I'll just say that. Really? They're not as easy to get some information. Yeah. Oklahoma and Louisiana, they are a little bit tighter and not impossible, but I haven't got any information I can get. Really?

But I haven't done too many. I haven't done too many out of Oklahoma. I've been a few out of Louisiana. I'm still coming up dry there and there. It sounds like it's a challenging thing to do, but the rewards are worth it if you put in the time and you have the patience to do it. Yeah, I think so.

I think we're starting to get the ball rolling. We're actually getting data that can be measured in one way or another. And that's my goal is to getting into this. I wanted stuff that's solid for people to look at. I didn't just want to just come up with more. anecdotes and anything like that. I wanted to do something a little bit more solid, something a little bit more concrete for where I could pass it off to people that might be a little bit better inclined to do some harder video analysis or audio analysis or whatever, and maybe

we'll get some more answers from it. That's really the goal to get as much information we can. And I think we're on the right, we're on the right path with that. Hopefully more people jump in and start doing some FOIA. Next thing you know, we'll have a bunch of phone calls, a bunch of stuff. Looking forward to there. And listeners, if you have done a foia about Bigfoot or other cryptids, feel free to reach out. You email me, Bigfoot Society, gmail.com, or put it in the YouTube comments for this YouTube episode.

it's Eric Media Palace at Gmail. You can also find that on my channel in the description of most of my videos. And yeah, if you'd like to watch the documentary, The Beast and Brushy Creek, goes in the detail of a little bit about everything in the area.

It's streaming on TV and Amazon. It's also on my YouTube channel. I have the other documentary, The Legend of Harryman Road, on my YouTube channel as well, and that's a little bit more of the stuff going on in my area. But hopefully once I start getting more of these full-year request responses back, they'll start seeing a lot more videos like the 911 call, like the Manif Cave video on my channel. So I'm really looking forward to putting all the data I have out there for people to dig through.

And again, if anyone's interested in helping me out, dig through some emails or dig through some national parks records. please let me know because I can always use the hand. That's awesome.
