The Cryptid Creatures Show
Two hosts interview eyewitnesses and explore the folklore behind cryptids like Bigfoot, Dogman, and other mysterious creatures.
This is an eyewitness-first show that serves as a straightforward platform for people to share their cryptid encounter stories. Hosts Brian and Todd treat guests as credible and focus on their testimony, forgoing sensationalism or deep skepticism. The show alternates between these first-person interviews and co-hosted episodes where they explore the history and folklore of a specific creature or haunted location, such as the Land Between the Lakes.
“The show's distinction lies in its simple, conversational format that prioritizes the guest's testimony above all else. Unlike more produced or skeptical podcasts, it functions as an open-mic for eyewitnesses, making the personal narrative the centerpiece of every interview episode.”
Who hosts this show

The hosts primarily interview eyewitnesses about their personal encounters with creatures like Bigfoot and Dogman, and also dedicate episodes to discussing the history and legends of specific cryptid hotspots. Both hosts trace their interest in the subject back to seeing the Patterson-Gimlin film in the 1970s and created the podcast to provide a platform for people to share their stories.

What you'll be asked on this show
Hosts Brian and Todd begin interviews with friendly, personal questions to establish the guest's location and background, building rapport before diving into the main topic. They typically prompt the guest to "start from the beginning" and then allow them to tell their story in a long, uninterrupted format. Their follow-up questions are used to clarify specific details of the story—such as the creature's appearance, the witness's proximity, or the existence of evidence—rather than to challenge the guest's account. The hosts maintain a supportive and non-confrontational tone, creating a safe space for witnesses to share their experiences.
The show alternates between two formats: eyewitness interviews and co-hosted narrative deep dives. Interviews are relaxed and conversational, with hosts Brian and Todd letting the guest narrate their experience with minimal interruption. The co-hosted episodes feature one host (typically Brian) reading a prepared script on a topic, while the other (Todd) interjects with commentary and questions.
