  • BWBS Ep:103 The Roswell Incident
    May 25 2025
    Before there was Bigfoot, before the screams in the woods and things that go bump in the night… there was history. In this special episode, Brian shares a sneak peek into his brand-new podcast, Disturbing History—a show that explores the dark, strange, and forgotten corners of our past.

    From government coverups to lost civilizations, haunted obsessions to unexplained crashes, Disturbing History is where the stories they hoped we’d forget finally get unearthed. And as a little holiday bonus, Brian is sharing one of the most talked-about episodes from the new series—The Roswell UFO Mystery.On July 8, 1947, the U.S. military made an explosive claim: they had recovered a “flying disc” from a ranch near Roswell, New Mexico. Hours later, they took it all back. What followed was decades of silence, contradiction, and coverup.This episode explores:
    • The discovery of strange debris by rancher Mac Brazel
    • The military’s original press release—and sudden retraction
    • Testimony from Major Jesse Marcel, who broke the silence
    • Eyewitness reports of unusual wreckage, sealed caskets, and bodies
    • The evolution of the official story—from weather balloon to Project Mogul
    • And the lingering questions no one has fully answered

  • BWBS Ep:102 Missing: National Park Nightmares Vol.11
    May 25 2025
    National Park Nightmares – Volume 11: “The Vanished”

    In this episode, we examine two disappearances—separated by 78 years—that continue to confound families, search teams, and anyone who tries to make sense of what happened.

    It was a typical summer day in the Colorado wilderness when 4-year-old Alfred Beilhartz disappeared during a family outing. He was walking just behind his parents along a trail near a stream—then suddenly, he wasn’t. What followed was one of the first large-scale search efforts in the park’s history, involving over 150 people, bloodhounds, and aerial surveillance. But no trace of Alfred was ever found. Witnesses later reported seeing a boy matching his description on a remote cliffside ledge. Searchers scrambled to reach the spot—only to find nothing. No boy. No tracks. No clues. Just silence.


    Floyd Roberts wasn’t a first-timer in the canyon. His connection to the place stretched back to 1992, when his friend Ned Bryant first invited him out. Roberts became a devoted hiker, returning year after year with Bryant. By 2016, the two were seasoned and well-prepared, setting out once again—this time with Bryant’s daughter along for the trip. On June 17th, deep in the remote Kelly Tanks area, the trio chose to split momentarily: the Bryants taking a route over a hill before the trailhead, Roberts choosing to walk around it and meet them on the other side. He never arrived. The Bryants waited, circled back the way Roberts went, then returned to camp and marked the area with visible gear to guide him. Still, nothing. This wasn’t a man likely to panic or get lost.

    Roberts was highly intelligent—he’d worked at NASA and taught programming and game design. He had food, water, and a map marked with their routes. But after six days of searching with helicopters, drones, and canine units—no sign. No gear. No footprints. No remains. Despite the unforgiving terrain and triple-digit heat, Roberts’ experience and preparation should have given him a fighting chance.

    And yet, five years have passed, countless hikers have passed through the region, and not a single clue has surfaced. Why did Floyd veer off alone? Why couldn’t the others hear a call for help if something went wrong just on the other side of a hill? And how does someone—someone this equipped, this smart, this familiar with the terrain—vanish without leaving behind a trace?

    🔦 Two cases. Two different centuries. Two national parks. No answers.

  • BWBS Ep:101 When Cowboys Met Sasquatch: The Patterson-Gimlin Film
    May 23 2025
    On October 20, 1967, two cowboys rode into a remote California creek bed and emerged with 59.5 seconds of film that would divide science, captivate the world, and spawn a mystery that endures to this day. Roger Patterson and Bob Gimlin claimed they encountered and filmed a massive, hair-covered, bipedal creature that would become known as Bigfoot.

    Their brief, shaky footage—particularly the iconic Frame 352 showing the creature looking back over its shoulder—has become the most analyzed, debated, and controversial piece of film in cryptozoological history.In this deep dive into one of America's most enduring mysteries, we explore the complete story of the Patterson-Gimlin Film. From Roger Patterson's obsessive quest to find Bigfoot to his desperate final expedition when he could least afford it, from the moment of the encounter to the media frenzy that followed, we unravel the human drama behind the footage.

    We meet Patterson, the dreamer and artist who spent his life chasing shadows in the Pacific Northwest, and Bob Gimlin, the practical horseman who found himself at the center of a controversy he never sought.The narrative takes us through the film's explosive impact on popular culture, the scientific community's struggle to explain or dismiss it, and the decades of analysis that have followed. We examine the compelling evidence that supporters say proves the film's authenticity—from the creature's anatomically consistent proportions to its distinctive compliant gait, from the dermal ridges in its footprints to the muscle movement visible beneath its fur.

    We also confront the skeptics' arguments—the convenient timing of Patterson's success, the possibility of a sophisticated hoax, and the troubling absence of corroborating physical evidence despite decades of searching.Through exclusive insights into the personal costs borne by both men, we see how the film transformed their lives. Patterson would die just five years later, still defending his footage, while Gimlin would spend decades living with the burden of being either a witness to history or the victim of an elaborate deception. We explore the confessions of alleged hoaxers, the modern digital analysis that has both supported and challenged the film's authenticity, and the psychological reasons why this particular piece of footage continues to captivate us more than half a century later.

    As we journey from that October afternoon to the present day, we discover that the Patterson-Gimlin Film is more than just potential evidence of an unknown primate. It's a mirror reflecting our relationship with the unknown, our need for mystery in an increasingly mapped world, and our eternal hope that somewhere in the shrinking wilderness, wonders still wait to be discovered.

    Whether you're a believer, a skeptic, or simply curious about one of the great unsolved mysteries of our time, this episode offers the most comprehensive exploration of the film that made Bigfoot a household name and turned a brief encounter at Bluff Creek into an enduring enigma.

    Join us for a journey into the heart of American folklore, where the line between myth and reality blurs, where two men's afternoon ride became a cultural phenomenon, and where 59.5 seconds of film continue to challenge our understanding of what might be possible in the vast forests of the Pacific Northwest.
