Cryptids like Bigfoot, Mothman, and Nessie the Loch Ness Monster probably don't exist in the wild—so how can we explain these sightings with science? Paleontologist Darren Naish breaks down these stories and offer a scientific perspective with guest host Sophie Bushwick. --- Because of the pandemic, our show is currently pre-recorded, so the #SciFri​​ team have not able to take our audience's calls. We miss having listeners' voices on our radio program. We still want to hear from folks on our VoxPop app, but we're also experimenting with something new—we’re inviting our listeners to join us live for select recordings for #ScienceFriday​​ on the radio! The event was recorded on Tuesday, October 26, 2021. The segment airs on the radio and our podcast on Friday, October 29, 2021.
