In this captivating episode, we sit down with Max Hawthorne—Amazon bestselling author, acclaimed screenwriter, cryptid researcher, and relentless truth seeker.

Best known for his award-winning Kronos Rising series, Hawthorne has thrilled readers worldwide with his paleo-fiction/horror novels featuring massive prehistoric sea creatures.

Often hailed as the “Prince of Paleo-Fiction,” Hawthorne commands a passionate global following for his gripping marine monster thrillers.

Today, Max shares his most personal and extraordinary real-life encounters, including a close-range sighting of a Bigfoot-like creature swimming in a Connecticut lake while fishing with his brothers in the 1990s, a stunning UFO encounter during a holiday in the Philippines, and a mysterious fairy-like being that he and his daughter both witnessed—unforgettable experiences that defy easy explanation.
