Panda fun facts, The Beast of Busco, Lost treasures and more! Week of March 13th

I've really enjoyed putting this episode together.
We start off with fun facts about the adorable panda!  I sure learned a lot in putting this segment together.
We take a look at a woman who scours flea markets and thrift stores, looking for lost treasures----love letters, medals, and so much more--but the catch is she does this to return them to the families they were lost from.  A really fascinating story.
I've always had a great interest in cryptozoology.  Bigfoot, the Loch Ness monster, and more.  Did you know Indiana has it's own legend?  The Beast of Busco.  Fascinating story, and, I want to know---do you think Bigfoot exists?  I'd really like to know!
