This sound-rich and deeply reported show examines the relationship between science and society—that point where scientific inquiry collides with our very human desire to find answers, even when there are none. Whether it's seeking out Sasquatch, looking skyward for extraterrestrial life, or probing the power of the atom, exploring the unknown helps us better understand ourselves. Every season, host Laura Krantz tackles a brand new topic, so be sure to start with the first episode for each one.","last_synced_at":null,"page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wild-thing-884461"},"episode":{"title":"S1 E6: Bump In The Night","slug":"s1-e6-bump-in-the-night","published_at":"2018-11-13T08:01:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wild-thing-884461/s1-e6-bump-in-the-night","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/wild-thing-884461","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/wild-thing/2314156","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/354400/2314156/wild-thing/2025_11_07_00_05_33_872c71ed-668a-4e49-89de-22d6cfc80260.mp3","summary":"Tired of waiting around for other people to find Bigfoot, Laura goes into the woods (with some experts). This particular outing is led by Cindy Caddell and three other seasoned ‘Squatchers, out in Oregon’s Mt. Hood National Forest, who explain what it takes to go looking for Bigfoot. And once the sun sets, we’ll hear a few hair-raising stories around the campfire before heading out on a nighttime hike. *Become a premium subscriber to Wild Thing !
