It turns out that what most of us think of as the yeti is actually a western invention, dreamed up to sell newspapers and B-movies. But it’s actually based on a Himalayan reality that is much stranger than fiction.

Yeti tells the story of our epic quest across the Himalayas in search of the truth, a quest that ends up completely overturning what we think we know about this supposedly legendary creature. And about ourselves.

You can listen to Yeti now wherever you get your podcasts, including on BBC Sounds, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts. Find out more about the motivation behind our search on the BBC’s website here!
