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 absolutely epic quest across the Himalayas in search of the truth, one that ends up overturning what we think we know about this legendary creature, the world, and ourselves.

You can listen to Yeti now wherever you get your podcasts, including BBC Sounds, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts. You can read more about the motivation behind our search on the BBC’s website and some video clips are below!
