1 00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:28,820 Hello everyone and welcome back to another episode of Cryptid Cocktail Party, a show 2 00:00:28,820 --> 00:00:33,640 where we have a few drinks, share a few laughs, and take a dive into the unknown. I'm your 3 00:00:33,640 --> 00:00:39,680 host Dave and today joining me is my good friend John Bunting. How are you doing, bud? 4 00:00:39,680 --> 00:00:46,040 Oh, I am doing terrific, Dave. How are you? This is the third time we've done this because 5 00:00:46,040 --> 00:00:52,040 our fucking audio. I'm kind of glad that I don't have a camera because I don't think 6 00:00:52,040 --> 00:00:55,040 you'd even be able to make it through the intro at this point. I'm just laughing too 7 00:00:55,040 --> 00:01:00,880 much. Dude, I couldn't even get through that one time because, god damn it. Anyways, how 8 00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:07,800 you doing, bud? What's going on? I'm doing better every time we do this. It gets funnier 9 00:01:07,800 --> 00:01:12,240 and funnier. It kind of eases the intro though. You kind of relax. Some people when they first 10 00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:15,840 go onto a podcast, if they've never been on one, they're kind of in their own head about 11 00:01:15,840 --> 00:01:20,080 being recorded, but I feel like this kind of loosened us up. Oh, I'm terrified, but 12 00:01:20,080 --> 00:01:28,320 yes. I would say this loosened me up a little bit. Why? Because I think this is the first 13 00:01:28,320 --> 00:01:33,400 time, I'm not kidding you, in the 37 years of my existence that I'm going to have my 14 00:01:33,400 --> 00:01:39,360 voice recorded on something that I could listen back. Oh yeah, that is a spooky thought. Well, 15 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:48,720 I mean, when I was a kid, I had that fucking, that thing from Home Alone 2, the Talk Boy. 16 00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:52,720 That's what it was. Yeah, I had one of those. I would use that shit all the time. I had 17 00:01:52,720 --> 00:01:58,880 one of those. Yeah, I think I used it for about 10 minutes and the sound sounded terrible 18 00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:06,440 and then I never saw it again. I put it down somewhere and we had a room when I was younger 19 00:02:06,440 --> 00:02:11,040 in our house, which we called the toy room. Oh dude, everyone had a toy room. Yeah, and 20 00:02:11,040 --> 00:02:15,000 that's just where toys that you played for 15 minutes went to die. It's just like the 21 00:02:15,000 --> 00:02:20,120 Island of Misfit toys. Yep, here it goes. Never see that again. No dude, I fucking love 22 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:27,960 my Talk Boy. I used to have, when I was a kid, I had a green jelly tape and I would 23 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,760 play it through that. That went through my Teddy Ruxpin. I would put music tapes in Teddy 24 00:02:32,760 --> 00:02:39,200 Ruxpin. I never had a Teddy Ruxpin. For anyone listening under the age of fucking 30, Teddy 25 00:02:39,200 --> 00:02:44,280 Ruxpin was this toy that had in its stomach had a cassette deck and you were supposed 26 00:02:44,280 --> 00:02:48,880 to put the Teddy Ruxpin tapes in it and it would mouth the words and talk to you. But 27 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:53,520 if you put music tapes in, it would just fucking sing along to the most brutal death metal 28 00:02:53,520 --> 00:02:58,120 and it was amazing. Yes, it was terrifying at the same time. Oh yeah, that was like our 29 00:02:58,120 --> 00:03:03,560 generation, well I guess my generation also was Furbies, but it was like the early part 30 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,900 of our generation's Furbies. It was just a nightmare toy all around. Yeah, you're walking 31 00:03:07,900 --> 00:03:15,280 out to your parents and it's the Teddy Bear spewing random blood. Is it supposed to do 32 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:20,680 this? Yeah, no, it was all just a nightmare. But anyways, John, today I have an episode 33 00:03:20,680 --> 00:03:25,720 for you. Are you ready for this episode? I am ready for this episode, Dave. I don't know 34 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:30,920 much about cryptids, but I like creepy shit, so I'm ready. You did try to coax out of me 35 00:03:30,920 --> 00:03:35,760 what the episode was going to be about, but I feel like that was fun. But even like I 36 00:03:35,760 --> 00:03:41,240 told you, I don't think that you would even know what it is, because you're not a cryptids 37 00:03:41,240 --> 00:03:48,040 guy. You're just a spooky boy. Yeah, yeah. I guess that's the most spooky boy. Orbit 38 00:03:48,040 --> 00:03:55,120 stuff. Yeah, just a spooky boy. Well, today we're going to be talking about a cryptid 39 00:03:55,120 --> 00:04:00,400 that hails from just one state over in Ohio. And the reason why I wanted to do this cryptid 40 00:04:00,400 --> 00:04:06,040 is because this weekend is the inaugural festival that the state is putting on in honor of this 41 00:04:06,040 --> 00:04:12,240 cryptid, which is the Loveland Frogman. Are you familiar with the Loveland Frogman? No, 42 00:04:12,240 --> 00:04:16,760 I am not familiar with the Loveland Frogman. I was hoping that you would say something 43 00:04:16,760 --> 00:04:20,080 off the wall and I'd be like, oh, yeah, I've heard of that. But no, no, that's not how 44 00:04:20,080 --> 00:04:26,000 we do it on this show. We do the fucking lesser knowns. But yeah, so this story is weird. 45 00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:33,520 And this cryptid is frau- I don't even know how to describe it. He's a half frog, half 46 00:04:33,520 --> 00:04:37,400 man. Dude, there's twists and turns in here that you don't even know about, man. Is Algor 47 00:04:37,400 --> 00:04:46,360 part of it? Dude, it's part frog, part man, part magic. Oh, man, magic frog. Yeah. It's 48 00:04:46,360 --> 00:04:49,920 a- all right. So you want to just dive right in? I'll tell you the story of this fucking 49 00:04:49,920 --> 00:04:54,960 nightmare. Yes, you've already hooked me. The promo has been given. All right. So the 50 00:04:54,960 --> 00:04:59,280 Loveland Frogman is an amphibious humanoid cryptid that has been spotted just outside 51 00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:05,000 the small town of Loveland, Ohio, near the Little Miami River, which is a bold name for- 52 00:05:05,000 --> 00:05:11,920 Yeah, like, well, I mean, you know, it's Ohio, so they have to try to catch you somehow. 53 00:05:11,920 --> 00:05:17,960 Got to really spice it up. Like Hollywood, Florida. It's just like Hollywood, Florida. 54 00:05:17,960 --> 00:05:24,560 That's where dreams really do go to die. Yeah. But sightings of the mysterious frog men, 55 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:34,160 because it's not just one, as far as I know. Why would there only be one? Right? But sightings 56 00:05:34,160 --> 00:05:40,480 of the frog men have been reported as far back as 1955 and as recently as 2016, and 57 00:05:40,480 --> 00:05:44,200 is probably one of my favorite cryptids I've ever had the pleasure of researching because, 58 00:05:44,200 --> 00:05:49,600 like I said, it gets fucking weird. Do they have pictures of it? And are the pictures 59 00:05:49,600 --> 00:05:57,440 the same quality from 1955 to 2016? So, all right. We'll get into that. Normally 60 00:05:57,440 --> 00:06:02,720 on the show I do send the listeners or the guests the pictures of the frog man, but I'm 61 00:06:02,720 --> 00:06:07,800 not going to do that because they're all weird artist renderings that I don't even think 62 00:06:07,800 --> 00:06:13,520 are from the 50s or the other sightings. The 2016 sighting is a little sketch, so we'll 63 00:06:13,520 --> 00:06:18,760 cross that bridge when we get there. You'll describe it better than I could see it anyway. 64 00:06:18,760 --> 00:06:23,760 I don't know. I mean, probably. But before we get into the sightings and the descriptions 65 00:06:23,760 --> 00:06:28,120 of the creature, it's customary on the show to give our listeners some fun facts about 66 00:06:28,120 --> 00:06:34,940 the area that we're discussing. So, nestled along the Little Miami River and located inside 67 00:06:34,940 --> 00:06:40,260 the counties of Hamilton, Claremont, and Warren County, and it's only about 15 miles away 68 00:06:40,260 --> 00:06:45,320 from Cincinnati, just to give you an idea of where the story is taking place, Loveland 69 00:06:45,320 --> 00:06:51,360 isn't what I would call a small town. It has a population of about 13,000 with some pretty 70 00:06:51,360 --> 00:06:55,520 notable people hailing from Loveland. Do you want to know who some of these people are? 71 00:06:55,520 --> 00:06:57,600 I would want to know who all these people are. 72 00:06:57,600 --> 00:07:02,960 Okay. So, we got professional linebacker Joe Kelly, who you might know because he did a 73 00:07:02,960 --> 00:07:05,280 season with the Eagles, I believe. 74 00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:07,640 I'm not an Eagles fan, so I don't know. 75 00:07:07,640 --> 00:07:09,280 Whatever. All right. 76 00:07:09,280 --> 00:07:14,160 Cowboys fan living in Philly. 77 00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:19,880 But we also got a Survivor, Pearl Islands contestant, Lillian Morris. 78 00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:26,680 I, nope. I watched season one of Survivor and that was about it. 79 00:07:26,680 --> 00:07:32,840 And then we got former mayor of Cincinnati, television host and fake judge Jerry Springer. 80 00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:36,600 Oh, look at that. She's still alive? 81 00:07:36,600 --> 00:07:38,640 Yeah, he has a fake judge show. 82 00:07:38,640 --> 00:07:39,640 Oh, really? 83 00:07:39,640 --> 00:07:40,640 Yeah. 84 00:07:40,640 --> 00:07:44,080 I'm not sure how much, because show so much I know. I'm not up with this anymore. 85 00:07:44,080 --> 00:07:47,240 I only know this because Sam from work. 86 00:07:47,240 --> 00:07:49,080 Oh, of course. 87 00:07:49,080 --> 00:07:53,160 When I go into the office after 5 PM, he's watching judge shows and I'm pretty sure I 88 00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:58,560 watched him. I saw him watching a Jerry Springer. So, if Sam's listening, sorry, Sam. 89 00:07:58,560 --> 00:08:00,240 No, he'll love it. 90 00:08:00,240 --> 00:08:07,280 But then finally, we have Madison Young, winner of the 2009 and 2013 hottest kink film award 91 00:08:07,280 --> 00:08:12,640 at the FPAs for her work in Perversions of Lesbian Lust Volume 1 and 50 Shades of Dylan 92 00:08:12,640 --> 00:08:15,640 Ryan respectively. 93 00:08:15,640 --> 00:08:19,960 First of all, what are the FPAs? Because I only know of the ABNs. 94 00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:22,280 The FPAs is the Feminist Porn Awards. 95 00:08:22,280 --> 00:08:24,280 Oh, Feminist Porn Awards. 96 00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:27,280 Yeah, I don't know. But hey, good for her, man. 97 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:28,560 Hey, yeah. 98 00:08:28,560 --> 00:08:30,960 She took it home twice, son. 99 00:08:30,960 --> 00:08:32,960 Yeah, she did. 100 00:08:32,960 --> 00:08:37,480 She took it home more than twice. 101 00:08:37,480 --> 00:08:46,240 All right. So, yeah. So, that's a little backstory of the area that we're going to be covering 102 00:08:46,240 --> 00:08:47,240 today. 103 00:08:47,240 --> 00:08:54,360 This is a variety of people. I can't think of the right word right now. 104 00:08:54,360 --> 00:08:56,400 A motley crew of fucking... 105 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,400 Yeah. 106 00:08:57,400 --> 00:09:02,920 All right. So, let's get into the story of the frog, man. Again, this week, we're going 107 00:09:02,920 --> 00:09:07,480 to be talking about the weekend is Frog Man Fest. Unfortunately, I couldn't make it because 108 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:13,760 it's nine hours away from me. But yeah, I figured we would do this. So, let's get in. 109 00:09:13,760 --> 00:09:19,000 So, the first sighting of the Loveland Frog Man was in the spring of 1955 on a stretch 110 00:09:19,000 --> 00:09:24,300 of road known as the Madeira Loveland Pike that runs along the Little Miami River just 111 00:09:24,300 --> 00:09:29,680 outside of Loveland and Claremont County. Robert Honeycutt, I think that's how you pronounce 112 00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:32,840 his name, not 100% sure, who was either... 113 00:09:32,840 --> 00:09:33,840 Honeycutt? 114 00:09:33,840 --> 00:09:34,840 Honeycutt. 115 00:09:34,840 --> 00:09:41,600 It's Honeycutt, I think. But he was either a businessman, a traveling salesman, or a 116 00:09:41,600 --> 00:09:45,400 shorter cook depending on where you're hearing the story. 117 00:09:45,400 --> 00:09:47,480 I am already skeptical. 118 00:09:47,480 --> 00:09:51,840 All right. But even though his backstory is kind of all over the place... 119 00:09:51,840 --> 00:09:55,640 We can't even get the guy's frigging job right. 120 00:09:55,640 --> 00:10:02,080 Yeah, it's true. But the one thing that does remain consistent is the story of his sighting. 121 00:10:02,080 --> 00:10:07,000 So, at roughly 3.30 a.m., Robert was driving home when he noticed three figures off to 122 00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:12,120 the side of the road in the bushes with their backs turned towards him. At first glance, 123 00:10:12,120 --> 00:10:16,420 due to their short stature, Honeycutt assumed that they were just three dudes on their knees 124 00:10:16,420 --> 00:10:18,080 like praying, which... 125 00:10:18,080 --> 00:10:20,360 Three dudes on their knees. 126 00:10:20,360 --> 00:10:26,400 Yeah, they're just praying, you know? You never come across just like three dudes praying 127 00:10:26,400 --> 00:10:27,400 on the side of the highway. 128 00:10:27,400 --> 00:10:28,400 No. 129 00:10:28,400 --> 00:10:34,160 So, you know what? Around here, yeah. Yeah, you'd see that. Now you would. 130 00:10:34,160 --> 00:10:35,160 But... 131 00:10:35,160 --> 00:10:36,160 Anyway. 132 00:10:36,160 --> 00:10:41,440 Obviously, that's weird. But thinking that this was super weird, he decides to slow down 133 00:10:41,440 --> 00:10:45,960 to get a better look at these nocturnal monks. And that's when he realized that it wasn't 134 00:10:45,960 --> 00:10:51,020 just like a coven of weirdos holding a midnight mass off the side of the highway, but actually 135 00:10:51,020 --> 00:10:56,160 it was three amphibious looking creatures that stood about three to four feet tall, 136 00:10:56,160 --> 00:11:01,640 webbed hands and feet, teenage mutinous turtles. We found them. 137 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:06,480 Leathery gray skin and wearing loose fitting pants. It is unclear if they were wearing 138 00:11:06,480 --> 00:11:07,540 shirts. 139 00:11:07,540 --> 00:11:12,160 I'm glad that we could be specific about the loose fitting pants. 140 00:11:12,160 --> 00:11:13,160 Yeah. 141 00:11:13,160 --> 00:11:14,160 Or they... 142 00:11:14,160 --> 00:11:16,240 Kind of comes into play later. Not really, but kind of. 143 00:11:16,240 --> 00:11:17,240 Okay. 144 00:11:17,240 --> 00:11:23,400 So, he went on to describe the creatures as having long lipless mouths, no nose, a ring 145 00:11:23,400 --> 00:11:29,360 of fat around their necks and forward facing human eyes, which can only mean one thing, 146 00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:30,360 John. 147 00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:33,000 Yeah, I mean, that's frog if I've ever heard one. 148 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:34,000 But... 149 00:11:34,000 --> 00:11:35,980 That is frog, half frog, half man. 150 00:11:35,980 --> 00:11:42,120 The forward facing human eyes could only mean that the frog men are apex predators and should 151 00:11:42,120 --> 00:11:45,520 be feared by all. 152 00:11:45,520 --> 00:11:48,280 That's new.
