Wild Thing is a podcast about the search for [[bigfoot]] hosted by [[Laura Krantz]] and produced by [[Foxtopus Ink]]. In 2006 Krantz learned that she was related to that anthropologist [[Grover Krantz]], who had had spent much of his career writing about and hunting for Sasquatch, after she read an article in the [[The Washington Post|Washington Post]].<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref> At the time, Krantz was working at National Public Radio and thought that she needed to dig deeper<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref>. Through her reporting she came to understand that the search for Sasquatch spoke to important questions about human evolution, conspiracy theories, and the human connection to the natural world.<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref>

==== Critical Reception ====
Wild Thing garnered largely positive press from around the country. [[The Atlantic]]<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 2, expected 1)</ref> announced Wild Thing as one of the best podcasts of 2018, largely owning to its gentle handing of a topic that many people view with skepticism. Emily Todd VanDerWeff of [[Vox Media|Vox]] wrote: "It’s smart, well produced, well written, and intelligently structured."<ref>Liquid error: wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 2)</ref> [[Los Angeles Times|The Los Angeles Times]] called Wild Thing "Serial for Sasquatches."[https://ift.tt/2pPIKV4] [[Mashable]] named it the most "binge-worth podcasts of 2018"<ref></ref>
