Ep. 335, Steven James - Texas & Oklahoma Bigfoot Researcher

Excited to be back on the air again! This show was awesome with Steven James and Jennifer James! Steven has something new to share that we believe will finally move Bigfoot research forward.

Steven James has studied unexplained cryptid reports since 1997. His interest in the field originates from his own involvement in an encounter outside Lewiston, California in 1996. In the past, he actively researched the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, and was part of the team that first identified and studied the Skookum Meadow region. More recently, Mr. James has relocated to Texas, where he has been examining claims and evidence since 2015, with a critical eye towards documentation and scientific based reasoning and methodology. In 2016 he started the Lonestar Apes Project, which ran until 2019. He presented at Footstock 2019 on audio analysis and collection methodology. In 2022 he spoke at the Mid American Symposium on the relation of sightings and watersheds in central and west Texas, and in 2023 he and Logan Craft presented 2 years of findings and announced they were expanding their research into the application of ecoacoustics. In 2019, Steven, his wife Jennifer, and Logan Craft founded The Cryptid Connection, a limited series podcast that focused on a diverse collection researchers and enthusiasts. He spends several days in the field on a monthly basis, year round.

Currently, he is applying the emerging science of ecoacoustics to further scientific data that will lead to better understanding of a region’s biodiversity and species population. Mr. James is a successful Technology Consultant for Texas government and law enforcement since 2004. He is married to his wife and Co-Host, Jennifer James.
