SO EP:614 The North American Ape

In this episode, Brian welcomes back Ryan Edwards, a Texas-based cryptozoologist and author, to discuss his latest book, 'Beyond Bigfoot: The Unrecognized Primates of North America.' Ryan explains the research process behind his book, delving into lesser-known cryptids such as Devil Monkeys, North American Apes, and the Gugwe. He emphasizes a scientific approach to cryptozoology, while distinguishing between flesh-and-blood cryptids and 'para-cryptids'—creatures that defy biological explanation. The conversation also explores the influence of media on cryptid sightings and the psychological aspects of cryptozoology.

Lastly, Ryan shares some of his field research experiences and outlines his future projects in the realm of cryptids.
