Co-founder of Cryptomundo in 2005.
I have appeared in or contributed to the following TV programs, documentaries and films:
OLN's Mysterious Encounters: "Caddo Critter", Southern Fried Bigfoot, Travel Channel's Weird Travels: "Bigfoot", History Channel's MonsterQuest: "Swamp Stalker", The Wild Man of the Navidad, Destination America's Monsters and Mysteries in America: Texas Terror - Lake Worth Monster, Animal Planet's Finding Bigfoot: Return to Boggy Creek and Beast of the Bayou.
I watched this program Friday night. It was a nice travelogue of Lake Champlain and the lakeside New York and Vermont towns where most of the Champ sightings have occurred. Disappointingly, there was no real information about Champ and consisted mostly of eyewitness sightings and the local populations embracing the idea of having a lake monster nearby. The ubiquitous Mansi photograph was covered but not in any depth. Not really worth the time for seasoned crypto-fans but a comfy primer for newbies. I had relatives in upstate NY and as a kid in the early 1960’s, I visited them regularly, often spending time at Lake Champlain. Not much talk about Champ then but we had heard about something that might be in the lake.
