Each episode dives into real stories of cryptid encounters like Bigfoot and Dogman, UFO sightings, alien abductions, shadow beings, government conspiracies, and other forms of high strangeness. Hosted by Brandon Wright, the show focuses on firsthand experiences from everyday people who have witnessed something they can’t explain—as well as researchers who have spent years investigating paranormal phenomena, cryptozoology, and unexplained events across the United States. If you’re into true paranormal stories, cryptid sightings, UFO encounters, conspiracy theories, and the darker edges of reality that rarely make the news, Tinfoil Tales delivers grounded conversations without hype, ridicule, or forced conclusions. Truth comes at a cost… are you willing to pay the price?

In this episode of Tinfoil Tales, Brandon sits down with Wild Trees, a microbiologist and researcher who studies life at the smallest levels… but also believes we’re missing something much bigger.
