“Listened to the episodes on Bigfoot. Too glib and NPR like. As one reviewer said “ sarcastic and mocking”. Although she covered various topics it came out shallow. She doesn’t do justice to the numerous reports and dismisses eye witnesses and footprints as “ eye witness accounts aren’t credible”...”Read full review »
