See, things in credit unions help small businesses make payroll. This bill would cut the vital resources they need. While increasing Megastore profits. They deserve it. Don't they?

1:26Don't they? Tell Congress, stop the Durban Marshall money grab for corporate megastores. Paid for it by the Electronic Payments Coalition. The following is a special report as it happens about the current North East Ohio Bigfoot Sighting flap. My name is Jeremiah Byron from the Bigfoot Society Podcast. So this all happened starting March 6th, 2026. I found a Sighting report on the Bigfoot mapping project and started making videos about it on the Bigfoot Society social media. There's been six Bigfoot Sighting reports. And it's getting to the point where there's a lot coming in and a lot of it could be troll accounts. But I'm starting to talk to people on the phone to be able to verify what's going on. It started in an area called Manawa, Ohio.

2:26And it started to move west to east. We'll talk about this more as as we go through it. So starts out in Manawa Center Friday March 6th, around 12, 23 PM. A researcher from an organization called MTCR spotted a nine foot brown male Sasquatch and broad daylight. Subject was stationary, then retreated at high speed. The report on the Bigfoot mapping project was I run MTCR, a crypto research organization. I saw Bigfoot and was looking for somewhere to report it besides. My own organization, I was hiking when I saw a large bipedal cryptid Bigfoot standing about 120 yards for me. And it started moving away. It knew I was there and it left fast and I left just as fast. So that is the specific report that was on the Bigfoot mapping project there. We then go to the same town area, Manawa Center,

3:28Saturday March 7th, 10, 52 PM. Sighting was by an individual who wants to be credited as Dylan Abney, was a eight foot brown figure, heard heavy footsteps, deep vibrating grunt, and the forest got quiet. Dylan contacted me through TikTok on the Bigfoot Society account. Here's his report. I was walking along a trail near the edge of the woods when I started hearing heavy footsteps deeper in the trees. At first I thought it was a deer or maybe someone else hiking, but the steps were slow, spaced out and much heavier than anything I've ever heard out there before. A few minutes later I noticed movement about 40 to 50 yards away, something tall stepped between two trees. It looked easily seven to eight feet tall, covered in dark brown here with long arms that hung low by its sides. It moved upright and slowly turned its head toward the trail. Like it knew I was there.

4:28The craziest part was a sound that made a deep grunt that echoed through the woods before it stepped back behind the trees and disappeared after that everything became completely quiet. When I walked over to where it had been standing, I found several large footprints pressed into the muddy ground that looked way bigger than a normal boot, not saying 100% what it was, but whatever I saw definitely wasn't a person, definitely wasn't a deer. If anyone else in the Manawa area saw or heard anything strange yesterday evening, I'd be curious to know, please credit. Dylan Abney of this story is shared or reposted anywhere. This happened March 7th, 1052 PM. There's Dylan. We've gone through March 6th, March 7th. Now we move east to Garrett'sville. We start to get reports from March 9th, and this is where things get really intense, and I start. The first one is 1020 AM.

5:28This is from a... It was reported on the Bigfoot mapping project. I don't believe that report is there currently, but I was able to get the information here. This is a pretty quick one. I saw an A-foot Sasquatch looking creature, and I got scared and ran away. He had a lot of fur. The report is having thick black fur. I did get another report. This happened at 1147, March 9th, and this is the individual I was actually able to talk to on the phone. He's going to remain... It was two individuals I had the citing anonymous individual, an individual named Jacob Taylor. I talked to the anonymous individual. So I'm going to go ahead and read what anonymous had provided me.

6:30My name is... We're going to keep an anonymous. I want to report something unusual that my friend and I experienced while hiking near Garrett'sville, Ohio earlier today. Approximately 1147 AM, my friend, Jacob Taylor, who said he would like to go on record, and I were hiking along a wooded trail. When we noticed movement coming from the tree line, ahead of us about 25 to 30 feet away, we observed what appeared to be a very large upright figure, stepping partially out from the trees. The figure was completely covered in black hair, and looked to be roughly 8 to 10 feet tall. It stood there for several seconds while we watched. The shoulders appeared to extremely broad, and the arms were unusually long, hanging well below where a normal person's wood. When it took a step forward, we could clearly see that was walking upright on two legs. The ground shook slightly as it moved, and we also noticed a strong musky smell in the air. After a few seconds, the creature seemed to notice it. It turned its head toward us, let out a deep, crant-like noise, and then quickly stepped back into the trees. We could hear heavy footsteps moving away through the brush for several moments afterwards.

7:31We were both pretty shaken up, and didn't approach the area any closer. We didn't manage to get a photo, because it happened so quick. Jacob Taylor was a city who was willing to be listed as a witness. I would like to be anonymous if you're documenting sightings, if you need any additional details about the location, or what we saw, feel free to reach out. I called, so I then called the anonymous witness as I had his contact info. We talked over the phone. This witness, to me, seemed to be legitimate and was extremely shook up, but what had just happened an hour or so earlier. Some additional details that the anonymous witness was able to provide to me was he said that it was only able to turn its neck by turning its shoulders and not just its neck, which I found extremely interesting. The anonymous witness said it had a weird way of moving, like it was on stilts. Like you see an individual that's on stilts, and it's moving around in a certain way. He said that the encounter lasted for about 10 to 15 seconds duration,

8:35and it happened specifically while hiking headwaters trail north of Hanky Road in Garrett'sville. Okay, so that takes us to mid-day March 9th. I then got a contact from another individual, same day, about an hour after it happened, and this happened in Wyndham, Ohio, 6 p.m., Ohio time, and a few things to go over here. There was an older individual female that was in her house looking out the living room window, saw something run out of the woods on the neighbor's property, six feet tall, tall figure, all brown. Stride was very long, it happened about six seconds worth, and it was about 100 feet away.

9:36This individual got a side view of the big foot running the whole time. I was able to actually talk to this individual and her daughter, and a very, very interesting conversation over the phone. In fact, the witness themselves was a skeptic, and told me that her quote was, I know what I saw, but I don't know what I saw, which I thought was fascinating. There are going to be listeners that are like, you're in Iowa. This is all happening in Northeast Ohio. Are you having people check up on this for you? Yes, I am partnering with a local researcher. I'm providing phone numbers if the witness is okay with it. This researcher is being able to go to places to check it out. Hours after it happened,

10:36we are not going to say the name of the researcher, to be quite honest, I don't want the researcher being bugged. We need this researcher to be able to just do what the researcher needs to do. This researcher has help. Multiple individuals are helping as well, and you'll be hearing from this researcher on the show in the future. But to be quite honest, there hasn't been a group of sighting in an area like this, since I would say the 1970s. Let's continue. That being said, since I'm getting a lot of the information, I'm trying to take this as serious as I can to make sure that stuff is documented and the information gets out there. Let's continue. Today is time recording is March 10th, 2026.

11:36I woke up to a few emails, as you can imagine. And again, I'm talking to people over the phone to confirm things, as a lot of them have turned out to be not legitimate. Now, the one gentleman I was able to talk to today, interesting gentleman, as in, he has extremely shook up. He's very, very emotional about what happened to him in the town of Newton Township. So this individual reached out to me through email. He had taken his dog out at 4 a.m. this morning, German Shepherd. When the door was open, the German Shepherd freaked out, and it just lunched towards the woodline. The witness reports that there was something, a large black shadow we figure out in the woodline.

12:38Something was crashing around. He does have bear on his property, so he knows the size of bear. And he says what he saw, he would estimate the size of it to be much, much taller. Probably he would estimate about 8 to 10 feet tall. Let me read through my notes for this one. He finally was able to get his dog inside, and the dog was shaking, which is not unlike the dog does not do that as a German Shepherd. And so, you know, if you know German Shepherd, they're not like that. So, the individual was so shut up. He wasn't even able to go to the back of his yard to the woodline to see if there were tracks or anything to check it out. He was like, I'm not going out there. So, I was like, hey, maybe when it's later today after work or your errands,

13:42you can go out there, please contact and let us know if there are any footprints. I'm getting the research I'm working with connected to this individual. But, you guys, this is really wild. I've been making maps of how this seems to be playing out. And if you look at the maps that I'm making, you can find these on the Bigfoot Society social media. So, it starts in Manawa Center, goes east to Garrett'sville, starts to go southeast a little bit to Wyndham, and then southeast again to Newton Township area. I have the sightings on the map, the sighting map. I have at Bigfoot Society podcast.com. Some of these are on Bigfoot mapping project, but not all of them. Some of them are ones I've gotten specifically.

14:42So, the sightings are starting to move roughly east, southeast, approximately three miles a day. So, if you're in that area, please be aware. If you do have a sighting, if you see something, or you experience something, or you know someone that has had a sighting, please have them reach out or reach out to me at Bigfoot Society at gmail.com. If you are a Bigfoot researcher, and I've started to see things where people are like, we're headed out, please don't start stepping on each other's toes. The last thing we need is we need a ton of people. We don't need a ton of people out in the woods, making noises, call blasting, hitting trees, because potentially what that could do is you're going to have all these groups

15:43where they're going to be out in the woods, and they're going to hear each other doing these things, and then there's going to be all these false reports. What I might recommend is observing certain areas, looking at maps, seeing the wooded areas around, and getting out there and observing and see if there can be any evidence or you hear any vocalizations. You guys know what to do, but just be aware there's going to be potentially people coming into this area, and we don't want overlapping evidence reports. That's not a good thing. I will try to keep you guys up to date with what comes next for this. The best way to keep up to date is to follow the Bigfoot Society social media accounts. Really the best way is if you go over to Facebook, the Facebook page for Bigfoot Society, I'm doing maps and I'm doing updates,

16:44and I'm doing videos about all the reports that I'm able to actually follow up with, and get information and try again, try and take this very seriously. If you do again at the end here, if you have had a Bigfoot Siding in the Portage County, Trumbull County, or surrounding counties of Ohio in the last few days, or today, please reach out to me as soon as you can, bigfootsocietygmail.com and trying to get back in touch with people as quickly as I can.
