Wes Germer and Sasquatch Chronicles: A Listener's Perspective


For longtime listeners of Sasquatch Chronicles, Wes Germer has become one of the most familiar and steady voices in the modern Sasquatch conversation. From the listener’s seat, Germer isn’t a showman or a provocateur. He’s a listener first—someone who gives people the space to speak about experiences that often changed their lives.


The podcast began in 2013 after Germer shared his own encounter near Land Between the Lakes, an experience that left him searching for understanding rather than attention. That early episode set the tone for what followed. As the show grew, it became clear that Sasquatch Chronicles wasn’t about proving anything. It was about documenting what people claimed to have seen and heard, without judgment.


Over hundreds of episodes, listeners begin to notice patterns. Hunters, hikers, farmers, military personnel, and lifelong skeptics describe similar behaviors—large figures moving with speed and intelligence, deep vocalizations, moments of being watched, and an overwhelming sense of fear or awe. Germer rarely interrupts these accounts. He asks simple, practical questions about distance, lighting, sound, and movement, allowing listeners to draw their own conclusions.






What stands out most to regular listeners is Germer’s consistency. He doesn’t push theories or demand belief. Guests are allowed to speak in their own words, often for the first time publicly. Many sound relieved simply to be heard. That quiet respect is part of why the show has endured.


Historically, Wes Germer occupies a unique place in Sasquatch research. He is not an academic or a field investigator in the traditional sense. Instead, he serves as a modern collector of oral history. In a digital age, Sasquatch Chronicles functions much like the campfire stories of the past, preserving accounts that might otherwise be dismissed or forgotten.


After years of listening, one thing becomes clear. Wes Germer isn’t trying to convince anyone that Sasquatch exists. He’s documenting the people who believe they encountered something they still can’t explain—and making sure their stories are not lost.

The Cave That Was Never Shown J. W. Burns learned early that some stories were not meant to be chased. Born in 1888, Burns came of age in a British Columbia that still carried long shadows—mountains unmapped, valleys unnamed by surveyors, and knowledge passed quietly from mouth to ear rather than ink to paper. As a schoolteacher and later an Indian Agent, he lived among the Sts’ailes and other Coast Salish peoples, not as a passing visitor but as a man who listened. And because he listened, he was told things most outsiders never were. One story, in particular, followed him for years like the echo of footsteps in a canyon. The elders spoke of a being they called Sésquac—what Burns would later render in English as Sasquatch . Not a ghost. Not a spirit. A people. Flesh and blood, living in the forests and mountains beyond the edges of settlement. They described encounters in plain language: seeing them cross rivers at dawn, hearing their voices roll down valley walls, finding prints wher...

Bigfoot Across America: Visiting the Statues and Carvings                             That Keep the Legend Alive When you start chasing Bigfoot stories long enough, you eventually stop noticing when you’ve crossed into Bigfoot country. For me, that moment came somewhere between the Appalachian foothills and the Pacific Northwest. Over the years, I’ve had the chance to visit several Bigfoot statues and carvings across the United States—not all of them, but enough to understand why communities continue to memorialize Sasquatch in public spaces. In western North Carolina, Bigfoot isn’t treated like a punchline. Locals speak of “Knobby” with the familiarity reserved for long-standing folklore. I’ve seen roadside carvings tucked near forested back roads in the Marion area, places where the mountains still feel close and quiet. 📍 Approx. 35.6840, -82.0096 Here, Sasquatch is part of Appalachian storytelling—less specta...
