Speaker 1: Can somebody look up a name, Diane? Can you look
Speaker 1: up a name? Did you? Charles Stewart st u A R. T.
Speaker 2: Oh, Well that's kind of a common name.
Speaker 3: So does anything, I don't want to say specific, but
Speaker 3: anything anything a little bit different pop up?
Speaker 1: Uh.
Speaker 4: Cornell shuts downs claims of a sixty Neanderthal New York bigfoot.
Speaker 1: Thank you. That's it. Yeah, that's it. So there's put
Speaker 1: Northwestern behind you.
Speaker 3: This is going to involve another school, right, but this
Speaker 3: isn't It's not really about college other than they did
Speaker 3: the the did the study. If you click on that,
Speaker 3: what does it say? What does it say?
Speaker 4: The Bigfoot brew? Haha is getting hairy? That's what they wrote.
Speaker 4: You asked what they wrote. Loved the headline that said the.
Speaker 1: Job Okay, but do we have to call it the
Speaker 1: bigfoot brew? Haha?
Speaker 5: Well why did we go with naked nut job?
Speaker 1: The literation like the table tit test.
Speaker 4: Cornell University said it has never tested any supposed sasquatch corpse,
Speaker 4: but the celebrity bigfoot hunter who claims to Charles Stewart,
Speaker 4: who has claimed to found the remains, said the design
Speaker 4: the sorry denial is nothing more than an Ivy League
Speaker 4: cover up.
Speaker 1: Yes, he says that it is total bs. So I
Speaker 1: guess he had found he had found?
Speaker 6: Is?
Speaker 1: By the way, is this story well known?
Speaker 4: I've never heard of Charles Stewart who calls himself Snake
Speaker 4: the Bigfoot Hunter.
Speaker 1: Okay, that part's not relevant.
Speaker 5: His online persona snake?
Speaker 1: Oh like a dog the bounty hunt.
Speaker 5: Did no one know who Charles was, but they would
Speaker 5: know snake.
Speaker 1: Oh that's a good question. Is there a Snake the
Speaker 1: Bigfoot Hunter?
Speaker 5: It looks like yes, that's that's.
Speaker 1: That's how he is. So he is Snake the Bigfoot Hunter?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 1: Okay, does he? Oh? I'm sorry? What did you want
Speaker 1: him to post on Instagram?
Speaker 2: What is this?
Speaker 1: What do you mean he found?
Speaker 5: Is this what was tested?
Speaker 6: Yes?
Speaker 5: Or he claims was tested?
Speaker 3: No, he says it was tested. He's going to prove it.
Speaker 3: Do people know Snake the Bigfoot Hunter? So here's the story.
Speaker 3: Charles Stewart, who calls himself Snake the Bigfoot Hunter, shared
Speaker 3: last month what he claimed was a DNA test conducted
Speaker 3: by Cornell University that proved a eight foot, three hundred
Speaker 3: pounds sasquatch corpse, which he said was found in Upstate
Speaker 3: New York's Adirondack Mountain was real and nearly.
Speaker 1: Sixty percent Neanderthal.
Speaker 3: Cornell University, however, are saying those claims are bogus.
Speaker 1: They say this comes.
Speaker 3: From a spokesperson from Cornell. Cornell did not conduct any
Speaker 3: testing for Stuart or present a report. Stuart had posted
Speaker 3: the documents on his website marked is coming from Cornell,
Speaker 3: and they said those are not a product of our school.
Speaker 5: So he threw light their seal on the paper or something.
Speaker 3: Snake says the university is conspiring to cover up the
Speaker 3: truth about Dak.
Speaker 2: That's what they call him.
Speaker 3: Dak's been well, not they Dak is what he Snake
Speaker 3: named the Sasquatch corpse.
Speaker 1: Quote. Cornell is flat out lying.
Speaker 3: I will not be silenced, he wrote in a fiery
Speaker 3: response after Cornell said it's not true. This isn't a
Speaker 3: dispute over the facts of the report. It's panic over control.
Speaker 3: I bypassed the machine. This is snake talking. I bypassed
Speaker 3: the machine and went straight to the public. I was
Speaker 3: warned from day one not to share this report. I
Speaker 3: released the unredacted DNA report anyway because I believe in
Speaker 3: transparency and the intelligence of the public. Snake even went
Speaker 3: on to say that he can prove the university is
Speaker 3: lying and promised he will be dropping a documentary that
Speaker 3: features a supposed lab technician whistleblower from the Cornell University lab.
Speaker 1: Here we go.
Speaker 5: Okay, now, if this why would go ahead? If this
Speaker 5: was real?
Speaker 3: By the way, that picture, just so you know, they
Speaker 3: Snake did put Dak on display at the New York
Speaker 3: State Fair last year.
Speaker 5: That's what I kept seeing on his Instagram.
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's from the New York State Fair.
Speaker 3: He Some are saying this is a publicity stunt because
Speaker 3: the State Fair starts again here pretty soon, and Dak,
Speaker 3: excuse me, DAK will be back on display.
Speaker 1: Snake says that's not true.
Speaker 5: I understand that Snake maybe a problematic guy. But if
Speaker 5: you were the university.
Speaker 3: By the way, sixty thousand people went and saw DAK
Speaker 3: last year at the State Fair. Yeah, sixty thousand people. No, No,
Speaker 3: I don't have many people went to the State Fair.
Speaker 3: I know sixty thousand people went to see Dak.
Speaker 5: But if you were the university or the institute or
Speaker 5: the college that was able to prove via testing lab testing,
Speaker 5: the existence of some sort of creature like this, wouldn't
Speaker 5: you want your name link to it?
Speaker 1: People think you're crazy? Couldn't you do it?
Speaker 3: Couldn't you do it and say this is whatever this
Speaker 3: beast is, Yeah, it's sixty percent Neanderthal.
Speaker 2: Instead of outright calling it sasquatch bigfoot.
Speaker 5: Yeah, but wouldn't you want to be connected? I understand
Speaker 5: that if there's a forged document or something photoshopped or
Speaker 5: completely fake, you obviously want to get ahead of that
Speaker 5: and say that this is all a hoax. But it's
Speaker 5: just like to me, it's no different than if NASA
Speaker 5: ever finds the version of the Martians that everyone wants,
Speaker 5: they'll tell us, yes, yes, Oh well no, I can't
Speaker 5: say they'll tell us. There's obviously a lot of claims
Speaker 5: for cover ups over the years by former astronauts and scientists,
Speaker 5: but I truly believe, and I think that doctor Amber
Speaker 5: has said to us, like it it would be publicized.
Speaker 1: Yes, well, i'd listen. What is it? Area fifty one.
Speaker 3: I've always said that that many people can't keep a secret.
Speaker 3: Somebody would somebody there's too much money, Yeah, somebody would
Speaker 3: say what if there was some down there? Somebody would say, so, Yeah,
Speaker 3: if you can be the first one. Now I am
Speaker 3: waiting for a response from the Bigfoot Field Researchers Organization
Speaker 3: the BFRO, that was a group.
Speaker 1: Founded in nineteen ninety five.
Speaker 3: They just confirmed what they believed to be an actual
Speaker 3: sighting in Connecticut with a man who came face to face.
Speaker 1: With a bigfoot and what did he say?
Speaker 3: No?
Speaker 1: Just they confirmed it.
Speaker 5: I think they've come up before. I recognized that acronym,
Speaker 5: the BFRO. But so where is the Great New York
Speaker 5: State Fair? Where do they host that? Is it a
Speaker 5: more upstate?
Speaker 1: It has to be yes.
Speaker 5: And in terms of.
Speaker 1: He'll be a dak will be on display again this year?
Speaker 5: What is by the way, where is dak? Is it
Speaker 5: next to the pig? Who's weight? You have to guess?
Speaker 1: Like, no, my guess is? My guess is it's like
Speaker 1: the ah what do they call that?
Speaker 2: Like where you have to walk in but like the midway?
Speaker 1: No, no, it's not by ski ball and Papa shot. No, no,
Speaker 1: but like you walk in, but then you have to
Speaker 1: kind of make a horseshoe and then come back out.
Speaker 1: So you have to go down and see it. You
Speaker 1: just can't walk by and see it.
Speaker 5: And does the fair feel kind of odd having this
Speaker 5: be a featured.
Speaker 1: Exhibit.
Speaker 3: I can answer that sixty thousand people passed through to
Speaker 3: see DAK.
Speaker 2: I mean last year it was nine dollars a piece.
Speaker 1: They bought tickets.
Speaker 5: What is what is Cornell saying?
Speaker 1: Well, Cornell was saying they never did any we never
Speaker 1: did it, which is.
Speaker 5: Not true, and this is all fake as in like
Speaker 5: the corpse or are they just saying we never partnered
Speaker 5: with the guy to testing.
Speaker 1: Oh, that's a good question. The claims are bogus.
Speaker 3: Cornell did not conduct any testing for Snake or present
Speaker 3: a report.
Speaker 1: So they're saying all of it is fake. They well
Speaker 1: they're not.
Speaker 3: They're not saying yeah, they're not saying DAK is fake,
Speaker 3: but they've never done any testing on it. They've never
Speaker 3: tested DAK, they never did a report, they never they
Speaker 3: have nothing to do with with Snake and DAK.
Speaker 5: Because if I'm the fair, I kind of feel like.
Speaker 1: A no, no, you don't.
Speaker 5: I mean there's stuff at the fair that you pay
Speaker 5: for that's extra, ye.
Speaker 1: Like the world's fattest man.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and there may be a freak show, yeah.
Speaker 3: Don't they always do, like somebody really short with somebody
Speaker 3: really tall.
Speaker 5: But I don't know. This seems like obviously not real.
Speaker 1: The um.
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 5: Look at that foot.
Speaker 1: I gotta.
Speaker 4: Big, big, well it's big, little bloody menory comment little
Speaker 4: bloody he's dead.
Speaker 2: Well yeah, but I mean never mind, I.
Speaker 1: Would go look at it.
Speaker 5: So all I see for entertainment for the fair upcoming is.
Speaker 1: Oh, Kelly Clarkson.
Speaker 5: I think she's beyond that.
Speaker 1: These days.
Speaker 5: I see better than Ezra.
Speaker 1: Okay, I see a lot of money at the fair.
Speaker 5: Wilson Phillips, yep, hinder.
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, remember they played camp DC one oh one God,
Speaker 1: that was embarrassing.
Speaker 5: That was horrible air supply and the commodorees, oh, Lionel Ritchie.
Speaker 5: Do they know they're about to play a fair that
Speaker 5: highlights or dak so sorry a hairy costume just the
Speaker 5: association would bother me.
Speaker 3: Yeah, maybe they know that they're playing a fair that
Speaker 3: has an actual big foot there, Like maybe listen, you
Speaker 3: gotta believe one side or the other. You're either gonna
Speaker 3: believe Snake or you're gonna leave Cornell. And if he
Speaker 3: does put out the the documentary that proves that Cornell
Speaker 3: did it, they're screwed.
Speaker 5: Well, he does say he's got the proof. He's got that.
Speaker 1: That's where you're gonna look. Cornell's getting ready to look stupid.
Speaker 5: So you're siding with snake.
Speaker 1: Why would he lie?
Speaker 4: I think you told that sixty thousand, yeah times how
Speaker 4: many dimes ticket that was last year? I bet it's
Speaker 4: higher this year.
Speaker 1: Let's say it's ten and he gets sixty. That's six
Speaker 1: million dollars. What?
Speaker 2: No, No, yes, six hundred thousand.
Speaker 5: I'll tell you definitely. But but then, how much do
Speaker 5: you have to pay to exhibit exhibit yourself?
Speaker 2: I don't know.
Speaker 5: It's it's not six hundred thousand dollars.
Speaker 1: No it to exhibit it. By the way, I bet
Speaker 1: this is the biggest exhibit at the fair.
Speaker 5: I don't know if they have butter sculptures. You're a
Speaker 5: big butter guy.
Speaker 1: Walk through with a piece of hot bread.
Speaker 5: Is it Syracuse? It looks like Syracuse is who hosts this?
Speaker 1: By the way, I have an inn there in the town.
Speaker 3: I know the market manager for the iHeart Syracuse stations.
Speaker 5: And are they heavily promoting this fair?
Speaker 1: I don't know. Kristen. Send Aaron a text to if
Speaker 1: you're heavily promoting it, we can get tickets.
Speaker 5: I didn't know that you were so connected.
Speaker 1: I may be able to get I may be.
Speaker 3: Able to get Snake.
Speaker 5: Well, I think I could d M him. Oh or
Speaker 5: remember our listener co listener of the day from last
Speaker 5: week THEO. Maybe he will just send a message.
Speaker 1: So we'll see.
Speaker 5: They are also Diane doing the fast and the furriest
Speaker 5: corky races.
Speaker 2: Oh, there you go, I'll be there for that.
Speaker 5: Oh they do big sand sculptures.
Speaker 1: Oh oh, because of how much beachfront there is.
Speaker 5: I'm just looking at their various events. I don't he's
Speaker 5: definitely a part of it. I don't see him listed anywhere.
Speaker 1: How did they not How did they not have Snake
Speaker 1: or Dak?
Speaker 5: Is it not on display the entire time?
Speaker 1: DAK will be back?
Speaker 3: Some critics have accused him of fabricating the DNA test whatever.
Speaker 3: The fair runs August twenty sixth through September seventh. He
Speaker 3: has already advertised that DAK will be back on He's
Speaker 3: advertised that DAK will be back on display.
Speaker 1: Has the fair not well, maybe the fair is also waiting.
Speaker 3: Oh no, well no, or let's get a little closer
Speaker 3: before we bring out the big guns. Like, yeah, we
Speaker 3: announced the commodores. Yes, we announced Wilson Phillips, but a
Speaker 3: week out Dak is back and that's when they bring
Speaker 3: it out.
Speaker 5: Oh this does my god, look at the face. It's absurd.
Speaker 5: Why it doesn't, I mean, I don't know why I'm
Speaker 5: about to say this sentence. But it doesn't look like Bigfoot.
Speaker 2: The No, because it looks more Harry and the Henderson.
Speaker 1: No, because it's a lot of it is Neanderthal.
Speaker 2: You don't because you don't know.
Speaker 1: No, No, you guys picture Bigfoot to look like an ape.
Speaker 2: But the second one video.
Speaker 3: The second that is so blurry you can't see it.
Speaker 3: But the second you see this close up, you realize
Speaker 3: it's got Neanderthal facing.
Speaker 5: Bigfoots preserved corpse arrests in a plexiglass and plywood coffin
Speaker 5: on the first floor of the horticulture building. If you're
Speaker 5: taking the kids to the butterfly tent, the exhibit is
Speaker 5: right around the corner.
Speaker 1: Perfect.
Speaker 5: When Syracuse dot Com visited last year, Charles Snake Stuart
Speaker 5: was letting people gawk at the body for free. He
Speaker 5: even gave each visitor and I saw a Bigfoot button.
Speaker 1: Oh yes, the.
Speaker 5: Exhibit is decorated like a Basement from the nineteen seventies
Speaker 5: wood paneling, mood lighting, spooky soundtrack, and William Shatner on
Speaker 5: TV talking in grave tones about Bigfoot from a script
Speaker 5: Stuart paid him to read.
Speaker 2: I would how much?
Speaker 1: How pathetic is that? If you're Shatner? How pathetic is that?
Speaker 5: Stuart said this about Shatner. He was pretty easy to
Speaker 5: get Bluss. He's into the paranormal and sci fi world.
Speaker 3: That is true. He's one of those intro zoologists at
Speaker 3: the fair.
Speaker 5: Snake has adopted the appearance of a semi pro wrestler
Speaker 5: who let his gym membership expire head to toe and camouflage,
Speaker 5: face hidden behind a bed and wrap around mirrored.
Speaker 1: He's a showman. He's a showman.
Speaker 5: I understand that's a big part of this set. No, No,
Speaker 5: that's a fair you want to be. It's like the
Speaker 5: carnival Barker's like, you have to be good on you
Speaker 5: to stand out. Stick around the exhibit long enough and
Speaker 5: you'll hear and you're certain to hear. Fellow fairgoers confess
Speaker 5: to Stuart thrilling details about their own brushes with Bigfoot.
Speaker 3: Explain that hey man, hey man, I've done seen a
Speaker 3: Bigfoot too.
Speaker 5: He kind of has like a Joe exotic vibe to him.
Speaker 1: Yeah, okay, easy go to OH line one. Oh hi
Speaker 1: Elliot in the morning.
Speaker 6: Elliott, Yes, sir, good morning. I lived in Syracuse, grew
Speaker 6: up in Syracuse and attended the State Fair for many years.
Speaker 1: Are you still in Syracuse? I am not.
Speaker 6: I moved because there was too much snow.
Speaker 1: Oh, I got you. So where are you now?
Speaker 6: I'm in Richmond?
Speaker 1: Oh? Okay, all right? Do you go up every year
Speaker 1: for there?
Speaker 6: My brother's still up there, and so I go up
Speaker 6: and I haven't been to the fair in about four years.
Speaker 1: Any chance you're planning to go this year?
Speaker 5: Experience?
Speaker 6: Not this year, got a wedding to go to, but
Speaker 6: we're going to go up with my brother in the
Speaker 6: following year.
Speaker 1: Probably does your brother? Will your brother be going to
Speaker 1: the fair this year?
Speaker 5: Yes?
Speaker 1: Would it be?
Speaker 6: It's a big it's a big deal up in Syracuse.
Speaker 6: I mean it's a big The state established a permanent
Speaker 6: set of buildings up there. This is a big you know,
Speaker 6: quite a big deal.
Speaker 1: Oh, I believe it. No, listen, I get it. Like
Speaker 1: state fairs, people make fun. State fairs are massive. Hey,
Speaker 1: would your brother be as kind? As to do a
Speaker 1: little work for us. Sure, do you think he would
Speaker 1: go and take does Dak can? Does Snaw say that
Speaker 1: you could take pictures of Dak?
Speaker 5: Yes you can.
Speaker 3: Oh will your brother go and take photos for us?
Speaker 2: Sure?
Speaker 1: That would be great, That would be great. Here's what
Speaker 1: I'm gonna do for you and your brother. I'm gonna
Speaker 1: get you both shirts.
Speaker 6: Oh that's grazy.
Speaker 3: Yeah, that'll be gonna mean nothing to him, but that's fine.
Speaker 3: All right, Hold tight one second. I need him to
Speaker 3: go early in the fair too. Okay, all right, very good,
Speaker 3: Hold tight one second please, and oh you know what,
Speaker 3: maybe i'll see if I'm getting Aaron to get in.
Speaker 1: All right, very good, Thank you, Sorry, we have tickets.
Speaker 1: Oh ticket?
Speaker 5: Stuart says, I was hoping Kathy say Cocal would come
Speaker 5: by one photo op with the Bigfoot Hunter and she
Speaker 5: could own the news cycle. It's biggest scientific breakthrough in
Speaker 5: New York since forever. But her priorities are all screwed up. Hey,
Speaker 5: while you're asking for New York State Fair passes, see
Speaker 5: if Aaron has a Montgomery County Fair passes.
