TuneIn Can Science Be Applied To Bigfoot
Doug Hajicek is no stranger to mysteries of the natural world. As the producer of the hit television series MonsterQuest, he’s traveled the globe to investigate some of the most elusive and terrifying creatures ever reported. His career reached a milestone when he captured the world’s first footage of a live Colossal Squid, a feat once thought impossible.
Now, Hajicek is turning his attention to one of the greatest cryptozoological mysteries of all time—Bigfoot. Instead of relying on blurry photos and anecdotal tales, Doug wants to bring cutting-edge technology, field research, and scientific rigor into the hunt.
In this episode, we’ll explore:
- How Doug Hajicek created and produced MonsterQuest
- The incredible story behind filming the Colossal Squid
- Why Bigfoot research has been plagued by misinformation and myth
- His vision for studying Sasquatch through science—using drones, DNA analysis, and advanced tracking methods
- Why Bigfoot deserves the same level of study as any other unexplained species

I came back home, and I couldn't think about anything else. I knew about bear prints. I knew about double-step bear prints. Um, I had done a bear documentary already, and so I, I just felt like, you know, there's nothing else that could have done this, and it would have been different if we'd have just found one track, but there were thousands of tracks, and the fact they were in this tightrope pattern.
