Bigfoot encounters: Laura Krantz's journey from skeptic to exploring the world of Bigfoot believers after discovering her family tie to researcher Grover Krantz, featuring professors, rangers, police officers, and normal people with strange sightings, documented in her podcast Wild Thing.“There’s no way Bigfoot could be real......at least that’s what I thought.”Laura Krantz is a self-described skeptic. However, several years ago she read an article about Grover Krantz, an anthropology professor and Bigfoot researcher. She thought it odd they shared last names. After more digging, she was surprised to discover that Grover was a cousin to her grandfather. She had to learn more about this mysterious world of folks who believe in the creature but aren’t “crazy”. What she found was fascinating. These aren’t tin hat-wearing antisocial hermits in the forest. They are professors, teachers, forest rangers, and police officers who all had undeniably strange encounters with a creature that they never thought they’d believe in. Laura, a former NPR producer, documented her journey which she turned into Wild Thing, a podcast about the lore and reality of who or what Bigfoot really is and her quest to know more about the folks who search for it.
