The Quarry: How to Unlock the Bizarre Yet Bonafide Achievement

Supermassive has recorded and released a few episodes of Ryan's favorite podcast, the investigative-skeptic vs.-believer show Bizarre Yet Bonafide, in the lead-up to The Quarry's release. You can find and listen to some of it in-game, but it will take some effort. Here's how to discover a clip from the Bizarre Yet Bonafide episode Hag of Hackett's Quarry in The Quarry, as well as the trophy/achievement of the same name. This contains minor but important spoilers for Chapter 7 of the game.

Early on in the game, Ryan has the option of listening to more of Chris' podcasts or eavesdropping on his phone conversation. This has little bearing on the achievement and may be considered a red herring. Instead, you'll have to wait until Chapter 7 to see Laura investigate Travis Hackett's dilapidated police station. Aside from a piece of proof, a few clues, and a tarot card, there's a passage from ByB that has Travis' knickers twisted.

His office is located a short distance from the main area, up a flight of stairs. His PC isn't unlocked, but the door is. Fortunately, the password is simply Travis's birthdate, because, in addition to hunting, due process, questioning, and werewolf legend, Travis is also a computer security nincompoop. Return to the main area and ascend to the landing on the second floor. The first and third doors contain the two clues you require. Read the birthday card that's fastened on the wall in the meeting room to find out how old Travis is. Fortunately, the card appears to be brand new.

Read the calendar taped to the wall in the corner of the abandoned office to find out the month and day Travis was born. Return to Travis's computer, and Laura will figure out the password on her own. You'll get credit for both the Bizarre Yet Bonafide Podcast and this trophy/achievement, which can be found in the Hackett History part of your in-game Clues menu. You can break this sequence without noticeable consequence if you wish to take a few seconds off your overall time. First, check the birthday card and calendar, then go to Travis's computer, where Laura will enter the password.
