Studying Sasquatch: Science beefs, hostile audiences, & weighing the evidence with Dr. Jeff Meldrum
Writers Drinking Whiskey | Season 3, Episode 20
Writers Drinking Whiskey is not your granddad’s writers-selling-their-books podcast. It is a celebration of stories and storytellers, and we talk about the unexplained, true crime, history, dealing with adversity, overcoming failure and rejection, how to make a kickass cocktail, and everything else thrice as much as we talk writing craft and publishing. It’s a literary happy hour, and it’s always 5 o’clock somewhere.
Are you the kind of person who questions everything? Do you crave the stories that exist on the edges of reality—the ones that challenge what we think we know? If so, you're in the right place.
In this episode of Writers Drinking Whiskey, we're joined by Dr. Jeff Meldrum, a renowned anthropologist, author, and leading expert on Sasquatch. As a professor of anatomy and anthropology at Idaho State University, Dr. Meldrum has dedicated decades to the study of primate locomotion and the possibility of undiscovered hominids. His insights into the physical evidence, historical accounts, and scientific methodologies surrounding Bigfoot bring a fascinating perspective to the discussion.
Join us as we sip, speculate, and science our way through topics that will leave you questioning, laughing, and maybe even believing. If you love the intersection of writing, the unexplained, and good whiskey, hit that subscribe button and raise a glass with us!
