Anne Archer, writer, educator, and speaker, was rescued by dolphins from a shark attack, survived a near-death experience (NDE), and had an out-of-body journey that taught her about the true nature of death. In the first half, she joined Connie Willis (info) to describe her life's peculiar and wondrous events. When she was a young woman back in the 1970s, she was swimming at a beach in South Carolina when a riptide swept her away. As she was pulled further into the water, she saw a shark swimming straight at her. Archer asked for help, and heard a message telling her to lie flat and not try to get away. Shortly after, a set of dolphins surrounded her in a circle, guiding her safely toward the shore and out of danger.
Archer recounted her NDE that began when she saw a kind of black hole in the room. She then followed the light and found herself in a blissful and magnificent environment that she didn't want to leave. She was told she must return to her body and that someone close to her was about to die, and she must go to them at once. Upon her return, her eyes appeared "sunburned." She was later able to identify what was wrong with her sister, who was in a coma, and doctors successfully treated her for a brain aneurysm. Archer delved into the encounter she and her husband had with a miraculous blue light that passed between their foreheads and lasted for hours. She also recalled how, around four years ago, her husband was diagnosed with terminal cancer, a metastasized melanoma. Instead of conventional treatment that would only buy him some extra time, they sought other healing methods such as "Hu" chanting, and energy healing with machinery from Monicor USA. After practicing these techniques for months, all signs of cancer disappeared, she marveled.

Thom "Cat" Cantrall's findings have helped shape current thoughts on Sasquatch, and he has mentored many researchers in this field as a prolific writer and speaker at many Sasquatch conferences. In the latter half, he discussed his life researching and interacting with these creatures and being invited to watch the birth of baby Bigfoot twins. He described various encounters he had with Sasquatch dating back decades. At first, he just saw eyes looking through the trees at him and heard a distinctive whistle the creatures made. He eventually saw an 8ft. tall male Sasquatch eating wild mushrooms, and his mate who carried her offspring at her chest. Cantrall said he thanked the Sasquatch for showing him his family, "and he turned back, and I swear he nodded his head at me."
More recently, in 2014, Cantrall set up camp in British Columbia with a group of Bigfoot enthusiasts and claimed to get to know a "whole clan" of Sasquatch located there. There was one male about 12 ft. tall with white hair, along with his blue-eyed daughter, around 18 years old. Cantrall detailed that it was time for the daughter to choose a mate and how they traveled widely to accomplish this to avoid inbreeding. Later, he said he was telepathically invited back to witness her giving birth. Her mother acted as a midwife, while 18 male Sasquatch watched along with Cantrall. She delivered a "very cute" 23-24 inch "ball of fur" that they dipped in the creek to get its lungs going. Then, a bit later, a second baby was delivered, and he realized he had witnessed the birth of twins.
