On Matt Stewartcomedy.com slash gigs Buy tickets now for both shows Do it! Pods and the stand-up That'd be so cool. Fantastic. Now, on to the show this week And it is Matt's turn to report on the topic

Usually suggested by a listener. Jess and I don't know what he's about to report on. We've got no idea, but we're very interested here. And we always start with a question for Matt to get us onto that topic. And the question this week is, so I put it up to a vote for the patrons. Fantastic.

And the options I gave them were four different cryptids. Ooh, fine. So we've done a few cryptids in the past. We've done Bigfoot. Moth man. Lachness Monster. That's right. Is that all of them?

So this might be our fourth cryptid. Yeah. The question is, what cryptid celebrated the 30th birthday of its most famous sighting in 2018, just last year. 80s siding. Good quick math there, Dave. Love that. I'm trying to think.

What was big in the 80s? Okay. Shoulder pads. Shoulder pad. Gym. Shoulder pad gym. Was it shoulder pad gym? Was it big hair mic?

Was it perm-haired Mike? Was it George Michael? Oh. Was it? Was it Wham? Was it? Was it ashid, wash, denim, Chris? Um.

Oh, was it the tie? die monster? Was that 90s? Damn it. Was it the, do they know it's Christmas time at all? Monster? No. No, I don't, maybe.

Are we close? No. Hmm. It is the something man of somewhere, something swamp. Does that help? Swam boy, Swamp thing? The, it's an animal. The something man of scape or swamp.

So close. Crocodile man. Think smaller. Oh, piranha man. It's the lizard man, escape or swamp. I mean, we were close. Of which swamp? Scape or.

Lizard Man. I don't know. Maybe that's a question. Scape or Swamp. It's from one of the two. No, it's Scape or Swamp, which is in South Carolina in America. Cool. Fantastic.

I don't know many facts about the Carolinas, North or South. Do you come across any fun facts, man? Yeah, there was a few fun facts around. Let me just go through my random fact generator in my head. Okay. Or I just picking one at around. random. He's he knows so many.

Neighboring state, North Carolina actually had a university there. Neighboring, to which direction? To the north of South Carolina. I'm pretty sure. Wouldn't have a pass them to bloody Mabedaly East or something. But anyway, one of their famous alum was a man named Michael Jordan. Now, he was quite a good basketballer. In his time, he's not anymore because he's, I think he's dead.

That's not true. That's not true. He's still alive and well. He's still doing real good. At the time of recording. At the time of recording. Oh, my God, please. So he continued to wear his college shorts, they were blue,

right through his professional career as a Chicago bull. So he was wearing a red uniform with light blue pants underneath. Oh, that is wild. Two pairs of shorts. You'd be hot. Hey, I'm wearing one pair of shorts right now, and I'm dying. God, it is hot. He was hot.

He was hot on and off the court. biggest thing in the 90s. Wow. But the biggest thing in the 80s was the lizard man of scape or swamp. Now, you can understand why Dave and I didn't immediately jump to this. We weren't alive in the 80s. No, not an 88. It's most famous siding.

You were not around. No. But we were but a twinkle in our father's eyes. I was going to say, not the same dad. Not the same twinkle, please. This topic was suggested by James Knight, and he wrote, Come on, it's a freaking lizard man. Very compelling argument.

Well, solved, James. Yeah. Thanks, James. Now on with the report. On June of 29th, 1988. In Lee County, South Carolina, a 17-year-old named Christopher Davis was driving home from a night shift at McDonald's

when one of the tires on his 1976 Toyota, Salika, blew. He blew a tire. He blew a tire. Spooky. Davis pulled over on Browntown Road. He was going down to Browntown, approximately a mile past

escape or bridge. He changed his tire over and was packing his tool back into the boot of his car. Packing his tool back in? Yes. Yep, continue. I like that he's handy enough to do it himself. I would be calling my phagea.

Your daddy. The one time I blown a tire, I kept driving for about 20 minutes, not realizing he had blown. And I was on the freeway with my foot flat to the floor, wondering why the car was pulling to the left and only getting to about 60 kilometers an hour when I should be doing 100 in the freeway. And then Spark started flying up from the front of the car. I was like, geez, what's that? Pull over and I'm like,

still driving. Oh, well, I guess I'll check it home. I don't worry. I'm only 25 minutes from home. Pull over on the side of the freeway. The tire has absolutely exploded. It's steaming like it's like it's going crazy because from the heat. I've shredded through the tire and down to the rim and for some reason I decided to reach out and try and touch the tire which inside of tire didn't know was a lot of steel wire which is now and it just cut my hand token and I'm like how old were you at this point oh about 19 just got my license so I'm like that's it get back in the car and I'm calling dad so davis pulled over and he changed his tire over packing his tools back in his car when he saw something moving from the tree line then that thing that he saw came right for

Whoa. This is how Davis described what happened next. I ran into the car and as I locked it, the thing grabbed the door handle. I could see him from the neck down, the three big fingers, long black nails and green rough skin. It was strong and angry. I looked in my mirror and saw a blur of green running. I could see his toes.

And then he jumped on the roof of my car. I thought I heard a grunt. And then I could see his fingers through the front windshield where they curled around on the roof. I sped up and swerved to shake the creature off. Wow, so it's run up, he's jumped in the car. Yeah. Lock the door and then it's jumped on the roof and he's sped away.

Swered fish tailing to get it off the roof. Thank God he changed that tire. Yeah. Oh man. Imagine trying to get away with a... Imagine trying to drive with a tire that's not working. I could have no idea how that would feel. Sparks flying everywhere.

Oh, it's so dangerous. It's a pretty wild story, but there's no sort of room for doubt. You know, in the Mothman one, it was a lot of stuff like, oh it looked like it was something following. This is like he's either, you know, he's probably telling the truth, or he's made this up. Or he was doing some drugs. Oh, true.

Yes, that's option three. That's just good, but I know what you're saying. It's not like, oh, kind of. So he's like, I saw it. Yeah. This is exactly what it is. I saw a three fingered hand grip through the roof. I saw it's toes.

Yeah. That's specific. Yeah, that's weird. And it's like. That can't be a man in a suit. I can see Matt's toes right now. No, it's a myth. No, I can see Dave's toes.

It's very hot in here. We've got nude feet. So yeah, it's like the, if it was a guy in a suit, then like pranking him, that's not possible, right? There's no human that can just rip through a car like that. Yeah, because at first I thought, well, this could be a prank. Yeah. You're right.

So did he go through the wind screens? Sounds like the fingers went through the front windshield. and then curled up onto the roof inside the car. Right, so they've got cut through the glass. Yeah. So, yeah, like someone in a Halloween costume is not doing that. Yeah, that's right. Despite the traumatic nature of the incident,

apparently Davis didn't go straight to the cops. It wasn't until he heard that the local sheriff's office was investigating a similarly damaged car that he came forward with his story. You'd probably be like no one's going to believe this anyway. Yeah. It would be hard to speak up about it. That's right.

Unless you're not. full of shit. Then it would still be pretty hard. Nah, I'd be piss easy. Because you can, yeah, it's like, do you remember? Yeah, sure. Absolutely, I do. I can make, I mean, hit me with a question. Tell you anything. Yeah. And know his name, stated, but.

Yeah. In 2013, writer Lyle Blackburn published a book called Lizard Man, the true story of the Bishopville Monster, in which he details the story of the creature. He describes the incident that inspired Davis to come forward saying, So this is the other damage car. This is how Lyle Blackburn described in his book. A family by the name of Wei reported that their 1985 Ford LTD had been mauled during the night while they slept.

The vehicle, which had been parked under an open metal carport, had suffered extensive damage to the molding, sidewalls and hood. It would have seemed like the work of a vandal, but hair and footprints found on the car led them to believe some kind of animal might have been responsible. Oh, Vandals don't have feet or hair. It's a bit, yeah, come on. Come on.

It's 1988. Your prejudice is showing. Yeah. Oh, I'm sorry. Yeah, you're the only people in the world with feet. Yeah, grow up. Fucking. Unbelievable.

Unbelievable. I mean, vandals also have pets. They're allowed to own pets. Yeah. Well, thanks to the... Unfortunately, yeah. Thanks to the... I didn't vote for that one.

Yeah. He goes on, Blackburn poses the question. They thought it was some sort of animal, but what kind of animal would sink its claws and teeth into a metal skin of a car? What kind of writer refers to the outside of a car as skin? This changes everything. According to the Charleston City paper,

which I'll reference a little bit, which is a Charleston's one of the big cities in Carolina. This is what they said. The hair fibres were determined to have come from a red fox, and a biologist said the footprivacy, prints on the car could have come from a black bear and not uncommon sight in the nearby swamp. So was it some sort of a bear and fox gang related attack? That's a question I've asked. I didn't see anyone else asking that. I thought that was the author. That was another question he was

posing. It feels like maybe it's like an unlikely animal friendship gone to ride. Yeah, I love that. They're catching up for a bit of a date or whatever. And then, you know, either maybe together, So maybe they'd both get off on it. Wrecking cars. Wow. So you're imagining like a lady in the tramp scenario where they got the spaghetti. Only they've got a car. They're sucking on a car for me there.

One's working on the exhaust pipe. The other on the bonnet somewhere. Meeting in the middle. The fox obviously, I don't think you could take a lot of it in. But the big bear, who knows? This is basically case closed. Yeah. Sorted.

I might send an email. To whom? Probably the lizard band. Lizardman at gmail.com? Yeah. Cool. Or lizardman at lizardman.com. Yeah.

So this story from Davis, along with all these, this car and a few other cars that got trashed around that time, sent the town and the surrounding area into some sort of lizard man fever. Media outlets from around the world ran with the story, making Davis some sort of an international celebrity. He further described the creature as green, wet like, about seven feet tall. and with three fingers and glowing red eyes. Oh.

I thought he only saw three quarters of it before. Yeah, now he's seen the eyes. No, he's seen the full quarter. The full four quarters. He's seen the top quarter. Initially, I forgot about the top quarter, but now I can see it. And also it was very wet-like, whatever that means.

Maybe it'd just been from that swamp over there. The media coverage led to a bunch of attention in the local area. Businesses cashed in, obviously, selling Lizard Man T-shirts. And the local Chamber of Commerce backed all the publicity as good for the community. Beth Hirshberger from the Lee County Chamber of Commerce. The legend of Lizard Man is Lee County. We just need to embrace it. Every town should have an icon.

And we just happen to be fortunate enough that ours happens to be a lizard man. Some towns have Michael Jordan. We have a lizard man. Allegedly. And how many three pieces that Lizard Man done? None so far. This interview, I really enjoyed it. Ours just happens to be a lizard man.

He chose us as opposed to us having to go out and find an icon for Lee County. I think he likes us. Maybe he doesn't. She turned very quickly there, mid-sentence. I think he likes us. Maybe he doesn't. He doesn't like cars, obviously. But we'll take him for what he's worth.

I love those interview sentences that are jumping around. Was he interviewing yourself? Ah, now, good question. What am I doing here? Well, let's find out. I think that's just classic sort of... This is a home video she's made. I just blagging your way through an interview.

You're like, I'm in the Chamber of Commerce. I am not expecting for a TV crew to come around and interview me about a lizard man. But this was not in the job description. Yeah. This man's great. I reckon he loves us. Or he doesn't. And he also might not be great.

So take your pick. I haven't offended anyone. We'll take him for what he's worth. Do you guys have any questions about what I actually do? You know, I did go to law school for seven years. No, more questions about Lizard Man, okay. Okay, what do you got? Yep, glow and red eyes.

That's what we believe. Or not. Yeah, or no, or blue, whatever. Who cares? I'm a lawyer. Probably has eyes. According to the Charleston Town paper, Charleston Town Paper, a Lizard Man Information Centre was set up inside a restaurant in nearby Bishopville.

There you could meet the 17-year-old day. to ask him questions and get his autograph. What the fuck? Christopher Davis, the boy. Yeah. He formerly worked at McDonald's. So this is a bit of a step up, some would say. Yeah.

You know a local celeb. Disagree. I think having a steady income is better than being famous for 15 minutes, you know? I think he should never have said anything. I should have just worked his way up management at McDonald's. That's right. Head down, back on the whoppers. Yep.

Or the grill. The whoppers. Woppers, mate. That's hungry jacks. Dave. Clearly he's not a company man. Big Macs. Yes, back on the Big Macs.

There we go. And the Wppers. Oh my God, Dave. Honestly, I will take you out the back and shoot you. She'll do it, Dave. Jess is not fucking around today. I'm melting. I don't, I'm.

What a world. Dangerously hot. Oh, wow. Is that like your debut album, dangerously hot? I'm a little bit worried that my body is at a temperature, which is not safe to be at, please do go on. Yeah, I'm a little worried that my body is too hot.

Shut up, Dave. I've had that fear for many years now. Honestly, Matt, please go on to shut him up. I've seen your little pecks. No, come on, I'm straight off the deck. The paper goes on to say that the county started hosting a lizard man 5K race. I was hoping that he'd see it and enter. Hey, there he is.

Gotta outrun the lizard man. They're already chasing him. They all get a handicap. They have to start. They get like a, a, a one. one minute head start and then he can start running. And if he catches you, then you lose your life. And more likely, parts of your car.

He tags you, then says which one's your car? And then you have to show him and then he'll rip your car apart. You'll remain unscathed. But your car's fucked. Damn it. The paper goes on to say, so the five. Okay, race. Also, at least three songs were written about the lizard man.

At least. At least. One was called Lizard Man. I think you're my father. The other words, Hey, they're lizard boy. Another one was called Green Day. In honor of the Lizard Man? Yeah.

Do we actually have any titles for what they are? I just told you. At least three. But if they were to write a fourth, Jess, of course. It would definitely be called. Swampy man. Slat in brackets, the lizard. That's nice.

Close bracket. I thought. And some locals have called for a statue to be erected of the creature. Some have. Some haven't. People want it or they don't. That's the quote from Beth. It's a bit like when they honour an outlaw, like a Ned Kelly statue.

This lizard man is clearly attacked one of your 17-year-olds. and ruined two plus cars. One of your 17-year-old cars. It nearly destroyed a Toyota Salika. Beautiful car, beautiful automobile. Wow. What an engine. Some people have loved the idea of the lizard man so much

that they broke the law to keep the dream alive. This is again from the CTP, which is what I've broken Charleston Town paper down to. Pretty cool. CTP. That is cool. Do you think that's cool? That's so cool.

That's pretty cool. Man. Yes, yes, yes, tell me. So cool. Thank you. This is from the CDP. In August 1988, Kenneth Orr, an airman stationed at Shore Air Force-based near Bishopville, told Lee County Sheriff Liston Truesdale.

Truesdale. Truesdale. You trust that guy. Sounds true. Sheriff Liston Truesdale. Kenneth Orman, the airman. Kenneth Orr the airman told Sheriff Liston Truesdale. Hang on, was it Kenneth or the Airman?

I'm so confused of what you're saying. The Airman, Kenneth. Airman, okay. Airman. I'm hearing Kenneth, Kenneth? Kenneth or the Airman. No, I'm hearing like Kenneth or Di Airman. And I was like, that's an interesting name.

Or the Airman, sure. That's his name. So he's telling the sheriff that he'd cross paths with the Lizard Man while driving to the base at 6am. Why was he driving if he's an airman? This doesn't add up. There's holes in his story already. Well, you're good.

Are you an airman or a landman? Yeah, he sounds like a landman. Pick a side. Pick a side. Pick a side. He just has to... He just always has to hover a couple of feet above the ground. You're one or three.

You're an airman. You're a landman or a seaman. You're one of three. We all start as one, mate. Twinkle, twinkle. He said he fired a warning shot with his revolver before shooting and wounding the creature. It doesn't sound like the... Much of a warning shot.

Yeah. Bang bang! If I find one in the air, then straight away, you shoot it. No, I find a warning shot into its shoulder. According to newspaper reports at the time, Ord drew a sketch of the creature and presented some blood and scales that were on the hood of his vehicle as evidence. But the sketch looks suspiciously like one that was being sold on t-shirts in town.

And the scales appeared to have come from a fish. That's all from the... You didn't think they'd figure that out? Yeah, I know, it's funny. I'll just get some fish scales and they won't be able to figure out what it is. And someone goes, well, that's a fish scale. You're like, oh, you're good. How did they know?

Are you a fish? Yes. Yes. I'm a sea man. Oh, he's quick. He is quick. He is quick. Yes.

Or eventually admitted to the hoax saying, I made the report just to keep the legend of the lizard man alive. He was reportedly charged with a misdemean account of filing a false report. I'm not sure if anything came with that charge. I hope the whole book was thrown at him, though. Oh, I agree. Because don't. I want it to see him do time.

You will never fly again. Because what happened to that fish? Yeah. What did you do to that innocent fish? Get some of it scales, you sick fuck? Well, I think he was friends with the fish and the fish. Oh, and he just scaled it. The fish was in cahoots.

Oh, my God. It's an inside fish. It's the inside fish. Yeah. Do not take that fish outside. So yeah, I don't like it. He diluted the whole legend of the lizard man with this nonsense. Just wanted to keep the lizard man alive.

I know. Look, it was a noble idea. I mean, mate, just donate to the statue fund. Yeah. Come on. Yeah. Or go out and actually go find the actual lizard man. Just talk about it.

Tell the story. Tell his story. Let him live. Thank you. Women can be lizard men. I think he should just be. He should be the vessel. Let the art wash through.

Mr. Airman, Kenneth Orr, Lizard Man fever didn't last too long and started fizzling out by the following year. So it really was quite short-lived. Other reports do still happen sporadically. In 2008, CNN reported that Bob and Dixie Rawson's minivan was badly damaged, and they blamed the lizard man. The lizard man.

Dave, have a go. Lizard man. Yeah, it's good stuff, Dave. Yeah, that is. That's fun to say. It is. And I can see why Kenneth would want to keep the legend alive. Kenneth or airman. Yeah, Kenneth or airman.

I'm not sure which one yet. Maybe you'll come back later and confirm. Talking about this report, the then-Lee County Sheriff E.J. Melvin said, you think it's a joke, but you look at the damage done to the vehicle. It's hard to say. It's hard to say whether it's a joke. Yeah. I would say it's a lizard man.

Sure. That's my best guess. I would say a bear. All right. A lizard bear. That's wilder. That's more terrifying than a lizard man. Yeah, it's a bear, but with scales.

Apart from that, it's a bear. Right. I think it's just a bear with psoriasis. Okay. An alopecia. So it doesn't have fur. Where does the fox hair come from then? I tried to wear the foxes a wig.

Yeah. He bought a fox wig. Come on, Matt. Sorry. I'm slipping in this heat. Slipping off my chair. Loop. In 2015,

A photo was taken And it was featured in media reports Across the Globe Was this the best evidence Since the fish scales Yeah Which weren't evidence of the fish A lizard man

They were evidence of a fish Is there a fish man? There's definitely a fish in the world If I wanted to cover up a fish man I would report sightings of a lizard man Then use the fish man scales As evidence of a lizard man Get people off the scent

Yeah Of fish God, can't get that out of you. I'll tell you that much. Whatever's going on. Nobody's ever said smells a bit lizardy, have they? So this photo was taken in 2015, and this is part of the report from the UK's Daily Mail,

a very good source for investigative journalists like myself. Yes. Sarah Beras says she was at church with a friend when she stepped outside and caught a glimpse of the fabled creature running along the tree line. The woman grabbed her cell phone and snapped a picture of the apparition. The resulting image depicts a comically muscular, upright humanoid with three clawed toes on each foot and clawed fingers. The monster has red eyes, a long kangaroo-like

tail and a snub-nosed face. And this is what Sarah... You can see the three fingers in it? Yeah. Wow. This is what Sarah, Sarah, Sarah, Berra, if I know. This is what she wrote in an email to ABC News 4 at the time. My hand to God. I am. I'm not making this up. So excited. What, she wrote that? Yeah. I love her.

Okay. Now I'm going to show you to the photo. I'm so excited. Oh, so it's obviously a pretty good quality then. Yeah, it's 2015, baby. I know, you can see the three things as you were saying. Yeah, that's what I'm surprised. It's always from such a distance.

Yeah. We might share it on somewhere so people can say, oh, you can Google it. You know, the Sarah Berra-Ellizaband photo. Here you go. It looks like something from the Power Rangers. She genuinely... Maddust just scrolled. down to reveal that the next line is report is it looks like a Power Rangers baddie to me.

That's 100% just someone in a costume. That is 100% a Power Ranger. Yeah. That's a costume. It's so clearly not a real Sarah. That is 100% about to get kicked in the face by Billy the Blue Ranger. Sarah. Sarah, you are not.

Oh my God. Seriously. Hand to God. Hand to God. I'm so excited. I saw someone in a costume. I'm not kidding you. I'm not doubting her.

I think that she thinks she did see that. But I think that she saw that, yes. But I don't think she's in on it. I think that's just someone in a costume and she's just gone, oh my God, that is real. Because if she was in on it, you wouldn't have taken that clearer of a photo. And it's also, you would have made it further away, a bit blurrier. It's walking like that photo of Leonardo DiCaprio.

Remember when he's like walking all happy? Yeah, that one. And it's also walking and flexing its muscles at the same time. It's a big unit. And at some point, she would have shown her friends that photo first, be like, look at the photo. Oh, my God, I'm going to send it to the news. And none of her stupid fucking friends said,

Sarah, that's someone in a costume. They were all like, oh my God, babe. Are you, no, seriously. Seriously, if you're lying, you have to tell me. Hand to God. Oh, my God. Babe, you have to send that to the daily mail. They will print this.

But also, I mean, the town, a lot of the people in the town love it, right? They love lizard man fever. A lot of them are making money out of T-shirts. And also part of me. Maybe not a lot of them are making money out of T-shirts. Someone probably is. Being skeptical. If you were in on it, you would make a better costume.

You'd make a better costume and you'd, yeah, you'd take a worse photo. Right? From further away, less clear. Bit of grain. Clear enough, though, that it's not just like a bit of tree. Yeah. Well, there were other ones They were around that time

She also got another one of it wearing board shorts And it's holding a pinocolada In a banana lounge And she got another one of it Blowing out birthday candles And what's the do with Come on Sarah So she's walked out of church

Is there anyone else had seen it They can corroborate That they at least saw it She was there with a friend apparently So I think there was But this person doesn't have friends Clearly Otherwise it's like just

said they would have given her the advice to, that is not good. Or her friends are as dumb as her, which probably makes sense because dummies attract dummies. Am I right, fellow dummies? Yes, you are right, dummy. Oh, no. You think I'm an idiot. That's a reflection on you. This picture went, was shown around the world again. Obviously, a lot of that was in, you know, the jockey segments on news and stuff, but it was.

That would be something you would do at work, day. Yeah, this feels like a Friday funny if I've ever heard one. Yeah, that's right. The King of Whim, Z. King of Whim. Z. And I'm trying to get a title at work, and it's just not coming up. This is what I was going for with Leonardo DiCaprio.

That's how it's walking. Oh, okay, right. We'll post that further. Can you remember to do a side-by-side post for those two? Screenshot it to remind yourself. So anyway, this is a way. every time there's one siding it, there's a clump of them, right? And that's because the lizard man's in town.

Well, that makes sense. That does make sense. It's not just one person seeing it and going, and getting some attention. Other people going, I want it on this. I want attention. But also, I think there's that and also people going, oh, it's back, so I'm keeping my eyes out more.

So I'm seeing that thing in the distance. Because there was a video with sort of a shadow in amongst the trees, which got a bit of attention as well, which to me is better because it's like, That could be anything, including a lizard man. This couldn't be anything. This could only be a lizard man and hard and fast proof. So I think, like you guys are making fun of her,

but I think Sarah Behrer should also have a statue in the town right next to the lizard man statue. And in her statues, she got a cell phone out. Yeah. There's a speech fellow that says so excited. Hand to God. Is that a phrase hand to God? Yeah, David Letterman used to say it a lot.

Hand to God. Hand of God. That might not be true. Many more, my favorite saying of his, I don't even have a dog in this fight. I like that. It's like, what, I mean. Why are you at a dog fight? Many more reports started coming out again.

That same week that Sarah Behrer's photo came out, a man named Jim Wilson said he saw a tall figure with a long, scaly tail. He spoke to Fox News in Carolina saying it was almost like an alligator with a man named. the short nose and long legs. My friend told me it's probably a pet monitor lizard, but my girlfriend thinks it's lizard man. Okay, well, who are you going to listen to? Your friend or your girlfriend? You're a whipped bitch?

You know, listen to whatever your girlfriend says? Hey, mate, well... Don't dog the boys. And was it upright? Was it upright? Yeah, monitor lizard walking on its legs. It's had long legs. He's going for a fucking stroll.

This all makes sense. Don't worry. It was wearing a jacket and a hat. Yeah, it was nothing weird. It had a napion. Classic monitor lizard. But I love how he's the only one who saw it. And then two people have strong opinions on what it was.

Yeah. I think it's a monitor lizard. No, that's the lizard man. Oh, it's clearly the lizard man. Oh. Oh. I reckon it's a lizard man again. I reckon.

Probably trying to look like a monitor lizard. Oh, shit. Yeah. You didn't think of that, that did you? No, I didn't. Yeah, well. Prepare to get fucked. in the head

by a lizard man because he's coming for you No sorry don't I can't Don't

Be you be on watch If you go around The swamp Just Where's our near a swamp Your wits about you And your whims about you Where's our nearest swamp

Do we do swamps We probably just call them something else A swamps and creeks the same thing Yeah we do have swamp land here We do have swampland. Do we have lizard man's here? Well, like a hand in hand. Oh my God.

In Bishopville, the South Carolina Cotton Museum maintains a lizard man exhibit. The CTP, my cool name for the baby, contacted. I mean, it's hardly a shortening if you have to keep planning on your same. You say it every time. We get it. Anyway, the CTP. What's that? What's CTP?

Is that some sort of government organization? Is that a computer? That's CPU. That's the Charleston Town paper. Oh, why don't you just say that then? That's my cool name for it. Oh. I call it the Charlie.

I call it the town paper. Can I go with Charlie? The Charlie contacted the museums then directed Jason Cox at the time of the 2015 sightings. And they quoted him as saying, there's always interest any time they show anything about the lizard man. People call, people want the t-shirts and all of that. So we're happy to supply your fantasy. Oh, Ben.

And then, so the CTP, the Charlie, they question him on that. They say, what do you mean? Fantasy. And he said, well, you have to come here and find out for yourself. Oh, he's a businessman. Yeah, that's good. Yeah. Come here and find out.

Pay the $16 admission fee. Their refunds. Oh, he is good. He said, what do you have to understand is, even back to the dinosaur age, there was a lizard-looking creature that stood on its hind legs like the lizard man is described. The Native Americans... Is that called a Tyrannosaurus Rex or... No, I want to talk about this dinosaur shortly,

but it's not the Tyrannosaurus Rex. It's a newer discovered dinosaur. The Native Americans talked about men with tales that came to live with them. So the stories have been going on for centuries. It makes you wonder, doesn't it? He is a great marketer. He's so good. I watch videos of him.

I really, I like him so much. I want to go meet him. If we get anywhere near this area, we've got to go. No, I'm not going near a swamp. Or a lizard. Yeah, nah. You can.

Yeah, no, I'll stay in the, I'll do a little detail. I'll do a little detail. I don't think that's what, I think that's three different things. What do you mean? Okay, well, the three of us can stay at different accommodations. Shotgun Hotel. Sucked in, Dick. Shucked in, Dick.

Shotgun. holiday inn. Shotgun Motel. Yeah. Love anywhere with a bed. Yeah, no, I want room service and a robe. Like a walking robe or like a dressing gown. Both.

Okay. And a tub. So I watched this video where Cox was interviewed for this sort of quirky news story by WIS TV. and in it he mentions that the legend actually predates 1998 and that it's likely that Christopher Davis grew up hearing about it that some sort of lizard man type creatures in the area saying something like, so in the middle of the night something comes at you in the dark what are you going to think?

Ah, lizard man. So he's sort of saying that he's growing up with the story, so maybe that's why Christopher Davis sort of filled in a lot of blanks. Maybe I guess he's saying as a bear and he's changed the bear in his mind. from a big black furry bear to a scaly green, wet-like lizard man with glowing red eyes. He's not a fair bit of work, to be honest, Davis there. Cox also talked about the fossils that the dinosaurs we were talking about before that were recently discovered of a crocodileian ancestor dubbed the Carolina butcher,

which is a great name, which fits a similar description to the lizard man. The Smithsonian website describes it as a bizarre nine-foot reptilian killer beast that stalked through the tropical mud on two hind legs and its powerful jaws could crunch through small mammals and armored reptiles alike. Whoa. What? But this is a fossilized... There's millions of years ago.

Yeah. Cox also spooked in this video, also spooked some of the museums, Lizard Man, merchandise including t-shirts and butter beans saying keep in mind the lizard man loves butter beans what what evidence is that based on he likes eating cars if anything else oh man i replayed this part of the video so much last night i just played it over and over here keep in mind the lizard man loves butter beans so what so if you're buying them is he going to be attracted to you i don't want that you keep your butter beans well how are you giving them to him well

keep in mind, the lizard man loves butter beans. There's someone about that that you guys aren't enjoying it like I did last night. I was crying. I can only imagine. Well, keep in mind, the lizard man loves butter beans. I'm going to t-shirt made of that. So that pretty much brings me to the end of the report, but before I do, it wouldn't be a cryptid report without some details of the town's

cash-in annual festival. Yes. Bigfoot has multiple. The mothman has one too. And since 2018, only last year, the lizard man is now in on the action as well. So that happened to celebrate the 30th anniversary? Yes. On the official website, which is maybe the poxies website I've ever seen,

it's got sort of like a profile picture, which is like a cartoon of a dinosaur. And it says, the second annual lizard man festival, I want to go to this so much. but I don't think we're going to be there. When is it? It's in April, April 26 to 28. At the Button King Museum and surrounding area, April 26 to 28. And it lists its three main attractions.

These are the three in order. WCW legend and actor, Puppastro Maestro. Does that mean anything to you? It's a wrestler. Puppostro Maestro. Then they have cosplayers with a picture of Aquaman. and a cosplay competition with a picture of Catwoman. I don't understand.

Very relevant. But I think there are, like, there's also, you know, that author I was talking about before, go and there's talks and stuff about mysteries and unexplained things, but the website does not talk about that at all. Does it even mention the Lizard Man? No, not really. It just is, I think it's Lizard Man Festival.com. That's great.

Yeah, Lizardmanf Festival.com if you want to check it out. If you're anywhere near it, you've got to go. Oh, wow, that's terrible. Can I see the website? We will be linking to this. Wow. That's sort of as described. That's it.

It's almost like they've gone back in time and made it in 1998. Yeah, but it's only started last year. So this has to be, I don't mean to be mean. It's sort of great in simplicity. It's also a little bit confusing. And it's really easy to make a website. site now so that's bad yeah we we could get a vendor or an artist table a lizard man artist table if we want to have a stall there 50 bucks for a vendor table we could go there and

sell butter beans or something oh keep in mind the lizard man loves butter beans what the fuck is a butter bean I'm not sure Dave What's a butter bean? Like a little, it's like a white bean. Why do you know everything, Dave? Dave, I like butter beans. Are you Google? Where do you see butter beans in Australia?

I'm a kidney bean fan. Number one bean. I make no apologies. I was about to, but I won't. Never. Beautiful texture. I'm trying to Google it, but that wrestler nicknamed butter bean keeps coming up. Oh, yeah.

He was in, sorry, boxer, yeah. Is that what he meant? In Australia, this is what they come in. They were selling little figurines. of butter beans. They come in little cans like that. Oh, so we call them canna. What do we call those?

They can also be called lima beans. Oh, llama beans are more familiar with. Yeah. I know those beans. I think there's an Italian name for them too. Anyway, it doesn't matter. Yeah. La bean.

That is good. That is. That is good stuff. And finally, one last fun fact to finish off. I haven't done a fun fact in a while, but you inspired me last week, Bob, with your out and John Fun Factor. Bring them back. They're fun.

Fact. I don't know if this is, but I think it's a bit of fun. Lizard Man has his own Twitter. No, that is fun. Oh my God, has he got the blue tick? His handle is Lizard Man SC, South Carolina, at Lizard S.C. And his bio is born in swamp, relocated to Bishopville, South Carolina. Shy and misunderstood, love wrestling, NASCAR, and flies.

Currently single, but looking. Hashtag lizard man. I like a guy who hashtags himself. Me too. Shows confidence. What kind of things is he tweeting? It's sexy. Isn't that funny?

I did not even go to look at what he was tweeting. Like what's he putting out like, looking for a car to fuck up? Like honestly, if you're looking for lizard man, he's fucking tweeting. I know. Honestly, just track down that IP.

Easy. He's used, he's using Sarah Bearer's photo as his profile picture. Oh. The last, he hasn't tweeted for a couple months. last thing he tweeted was happy Thanksgiving I am thankful for a swamp to call

my home the chatter of squirrels birds in the blue skies and the beautiful fall leaves to create noise to warn me how many followers has he got fuck me if he's got more followers than me I'm going to be mad how many followers is he got he has 568 followers

no I honestly if you've got Twitter out there you do go on less than this week we could all tweet him we should send him good a goodwill Yeah. What should we get people to write to him? Because it would be funny for him to suddenly get, you know, a couple of dozen tweets from all around the world.

A couple of dozen. Let's get a couple of million. Let's really swamp him with tweets. And love. And love. Thank you. Yeah. Love Swamp.

Yeah. Maybe some sort of love related tweet. A love tip. Yeah. Yeah. So he can find love. Okay. That's good.

Single but currently look at. And we should use the hashtag love swamp. And then hashtag Lizardman. Hashtag Love Swamp. Hashtag Lizard Man. And he's handled one more time just to get out there. At Lizard Man SC. And we will be tweeting him.

Yeah. That's great. What a beautiful man. That's a good fun fact. It's great if we get his followers up a bit too. We could all follow the lizard man. Yeah, let's follow the lizard man. Let's get him up over a thousand.

Come on, people. Come on. Pitch in. He's a lizard man. He deserves a thousand follow. Give him a bit of respect. He's a fucking lizard tweeting. That's amazing.

And if you could offer him any butter beans, you want to offer him? Yeah. Send him butter beans all love. love, oh both. Because. Keep in mind. Keep in mind. I don't know why I love that, so.

It looks like... Keep in mind. Was you, were thinking cannellini beans, Matt? Canolini. They go under that name as well. A bean. Malto beni. Vabene.

Moldo beanie. Oh. That means many beans. Very bean. Very bean. Could he be any more bean? Yes. Matt.

That is an interesting. and wonderful report. That was fun. It was from my heart to yours. I just thought it was about time someone said it. It was an important report to get out there. Yeah. People needed to know.

That probably was a lot of fun to research too. It was. Yeah. That was a lot of fun, especially after my last report being about Waco. It was nice to have a bit of a... Yeah, something light. It's a bit silly.

Nobody's dead in this one, you know? He hasn't killed anybody, so that's nice. Yes, as far as I know, he hasn't killed anyone. Very good. He does have a big set against Toyota Salicas. But he's looking for love. We all have things we hate. Yeah.

But we all love love. Maybe that's what he's, maybe he was like there scratching at the door going, Love me. I just want a friend. And the guy's driving around trying to throw him up the roof. Get away, you crazy bastard. Let me in. I just want to love something.

Let me into your car and your heart. Yeah. Oh, that's nice. The lizard's Dave Callan. Yeah Hello there Hello there I'm the lizard man

That brings us to the end of the report But not the end of the show Dave What happens now No This is part of the show We'd like to pause And give thanks To the people that support us

And also a segment that you like to call fact, quote, or question. And that is time now for fact quote or question. And this week's fact quote or question comes from fantastic listener and supporter Sarah Groom. This is her first time in the fact quote or question. Welcome, Sarah. Hello, Sarah. It's like you've been here all along. You fit in so well. And you get to give yourself a title when you're giving a fact quote of question.

And Sarah's chosen the title of professional earthworm trainer. Oh, I see. I think that's one of your nicknames, isn't it, Dave? The earthworm. Cobra. Earthworm. The earthworm. That's one of my best calls.

Yeah. I wear that proudly. Earthworm, Dave. Despite hurting my friend. We're there. And Sarah, I might need some help from. You guys, it's sort of directed at me, but I might use your help if that's okay. All right.

Absolutely not. Yeah. Sarah's question is, Matt, the man of a thousand voices. What is your most controversial noise? And alternatively, what is noise number 873? Well, you can answer that part yourself. Well, no, I think Dave's got the list of you. Hold on.

Dave catalogs my noises. Let's start this list. 873. Hang on. That is the sound of 8753. A chicken stepping on a rake. Okay, yeah. That is a good one.

Frequently requested. It is frequently. I've never, I haven't done it on pod before. Not on pot. Does people come up to you in the street? In the street, I often do it at the supermarket. And chicken farms. A lot of chickens want to hear that noise.

I love it because it's relatable. But, okay, here it is. Sorry. Sorry. What happened then? Are you just clearing your throat ready for the noise? Yeah. Okay, here we go.

873. Whoa. I closed my eyes and for a moment I forgot you were making the noise and I thought how the fuck, A, did a rake get in here? Yeah. Is that Dave's girlfriend or? Secondly, this chicken. Dave's girlfriend is a mop. We've been over this.

Have we talked about this on the show before? I think so. Okay. That's how we do you like. How we're pretty confident your girlfriend isn't real. We think it's a mop. Some sort of, yeah, something, a stick with a mop probably makes sense because I've seen her from behind and she does have hair.

Yeah. So, yeah. He's going to throw her window. That's the only way you'll never, never spoken to her. She's not real. Dave's on me at the window. Like, I'll come around and pick him up. And I'm like, I'll come in.

You're like, no, no, I've just got to say goodbye to my girlfriend. And then you're in the window. Yeah, it turns around. Yeah, I do that thing, arms around myself. Arms around my back. Yeah, and I'm like, why has he got that mop on his book? We've started doing that. that again in my house just turning around like,

ooh. It's very funny. We in our house, do you mean? Because you live alone. You're just doing that when you're forced? Me by myself. Yeah, we've started doing that again. We've also started.

We and my limbs. Also started going to the bathroom with the door open. Who cares? Who cares? Yeah, no, I, of course I do. I've got two doors in my bathroom, both wide open. Two doors? Yeah.

Oh, my goodness. I forgot that you were staying at the ritz. Bloody hell. The other part of that question was what's the most controversial? Same noise. Yeah, is it? Yeah, right. Absolutely.

I would agree. Honestly, because Peter get annoyed because I think you're actually hurting a chicken because it's so accurate. They think you're torturing a chicken. We've had so many complaint tweets from them. We say, yeah, we have to keep saying. I'm so sorry, but he is a master impressionist. It's just a sound effect.

We have no chickens from harm to the making of that noise. Yeah. It is strange as well because they're assuming that, like, the chicken is being made to step on the rake. It's like it. That, I mean, if you listen close to the sound, that chicken's doing it on purpose. Yeah. It's getting off on it.

Yeah. It's getting off on that break. He's a horny little chicken. He's a horny chicken. Yeah, he's a very clucky. Yeah, oh yeah, big time. Wow. They roost and they root.

Good for them. They love it. All right. They love it. Oh, boy. Thanks so much for that question, Sarah Groome. Thanks, Sarah. It was a great opportunity to put that on record.

Did you want it one more time? No. Okay, great. I mean, it's on record. I'll just put it on. I'll just rewind it. If you want it as a phone, a phone ring. Just loop it.

Loop it. Save your Rudd style. See, loop you going. Sure. It's hot. Now it's time for the other part of the end of the show where we thank you, our Patreon supporters. If you want to support the show, you can go to do go onpod.com.

But one of the things that we like to do at the end of every episode is thank some of our Patreon supporters. And we're going to do that now. Oh, what a fantastic opportunity. Now, what can we give to them this week? More than gratitude. Last week we named their album cover, their albums. Oh, that's right. So I guess maybe we just give it, based on their town, their place of residence.

Yep. That's the, that swamp. And it's the whatever of that place swamp. Yeah, agreed. Yep. So first up, I love to thank from Monroe in New York, Gino, Frato. Oh, fantastic name.

Geno Frato. I like that a lot. Gino Frato. From Monroe. The swan. Can I just jump in here? Please. Can I just say Gino Frato, the flamingo of Monroe.

Swamp. The flamingo. So it's just a bird. Gino's a bird. Flamingo man. Oh, that's different. I wanted to keep the... It's tall and pink.

Flingo. So it's a man. Flamingo man. And he leaves fish scales everywhere he goes. It's very strange. Gino, you are a character. And you know what? Monroe is lucky to have you.

Yep. Gino Frateau. I'd also love to thank from South Shields, Tarnan Ware, in Great Britain. No doubt I've said that wrong because it's in Great Britain. And they pronounce stuff funny there. It's Jamie Collins. Jamie Collins.

Hi, Jamie. South Shield Swamp. Thanks, Jamie. Yeah. South Shield Swamp. It doesn't have to be a swamp, I guess. No, it does. Okay.

Swamps are where these things congregate. Okay, right. Well, I'm thinking the bucket hat man. Oh, South Shield Swamp. I love it. That is honestly terrifying. Yeah. What's under there?

Yeah. Oh, no, he's bald. Put it back on. Have you scared of bald people? Yeah. Why? That a weird experience once. Okay.

With Billy Corgan. That's strange. Thank you. Thanks very much to Jamie. That's the third time. I've touched Dave's toes with my toes. I did not even notice the first two, which is very disturbing. Dave, would you like to thank some people to take your mind?

I'd love to take my mind of it by thanking all the way. From Kearney in Nebraska, Jordan Reese. Ah, Reese. The Reese's Pieces. Of... Monster. Of Kearney Swamp. Yeah.

It eats Reese's Pieces Monster from Kearney Swamp. Jordan Reese, that sounds delicious yet terrifying. Yeah, well, it's supposed to sound all cute because people like, oh, it just eats little chocolate treats. But what it actually means is it eats pieces of people named Reese. Oh, dear. Jordan Reese is on the list. Yeah. Sorry, Jordan.

You'd probably want to move. Reese's pieces is a chocolate. Yeah. Sounds terrifying. A little chocolate peanut buttery treat. Oh. Delicious. They are really, really nice.

Yep. I would like to think also from the United States of America, from Chicago, Illinois, Ryan Cassani or Ryan Kachani. Not so I wrote this, Ryan, but Ryan Cassani, I think I'm going to go with, from Chicago, Illinois. And Ryan is, of course, the dog. Door mouse of Chicago Swamp. Oh, the door mouse.

They even have doors in swamps. Yeah. What is a door mouse? Just a little mouse. Oh, like a doorman at a hotel. I reckon they would call it the door mouse because this thing appears inside places and you think, how do they get in? They must have got through a small crack like a door mouse. But then they're seven foot tall.

Oh. How they get in? Magic. Very easy to get in and out of places. The door mouse of Chicago Swamp. Wow. Is a door mouse a real thing? Has become terrifying now.

Yeah, door mouse is a thing. Yeah, you've just referred to a mouse as a door mouse. Holy moly. Sorry to put everyone into nightmare mode. Thank you though, Ryan. And I would like to thank from Ford in this great country's capital territory. Canberra. Oh, this countries.

These countries. I would like to thank Edward Bassanelli. Oh, fantastic name. Longtime supporter. Hello, Edward. Hi, Edward. And Edward would be... The purple wiggle of...

Ford Swamp. Oh, he's always falling asleep. And Wiggling. I love it. Where did you get that from? I don't know. I just went deep into my psyche. Did you black out for a second?

I blacked out for quite a few seconds. Do you think he forces people to sleep? Matt said sex. Yes. Thank you, Edward. Thank you, Edward. The people wiggle. I also like to thank also from the ACT.

Oh, coincidence. Mm-hmm. Yes. Isabel Klein. Isabel. Isabel. Who is, of course, the wretched stilt walker. Whoa.

Where did that come from? Of Ainsley Swamp. God, Dave, you are really digging deep in these. I love it. I tried for one and you cut me off and said, no. Oh, I'm so sorry. No, you're not. You look like you needed my help.

Well. And I came through with the wretched stilt walker. I think we should come up with one last one, and that is the wretched cutting off monster from that spot over there swamp yeah he was inside me all along oh not like that well yeah no judgment but gross so thank you to isabel klein and everyone no judgment but thank you so much for everyone who has supported us on the Patreon.
