In 1929, in a remote county of the Arkansas Ozarks, the gruesome murder of harmonica-playing drifter Connie Franklin and the brutal rape of his teenaged fiancée captured the attention of a nation on the cusp of the Great Depression. National press from coast to coast ran stories of the sensational exploits of night-riding moonshiners, powerful "Barons of the Hills," and a world of feudal oppression in the isolation of the rugged Ozarks. The ensuing arrest of five local men for both crimes and the confusion and superstition surrounding the trial and conviction gave Stone County a dubious and short-lived notoriety.🎉 10TH ANNIVERSARY LISTENER APPRECIATION SPECIAL10 years of mysteries. 10 years of incredible listeners.

My special guest is FBI investigator Mark Safarik an internationally recognized expert in the analysis and interpretation of violent criminal behavior. He joins me to discuss the alarming incidents of sexual homicides committed against the elderly population. Mark Safarik was one of the most respected members of the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s elite Behavioral Analysis Unit, during which time he established himself as an internationally recognized expert in the analysis and interpretation of violent criminal behavior. Mr. Safarik’s law enforcement career spans over 30 years, during which time he worked in all levels of policework, from working patrol as a beat cop to investigating murders as a detective to performing on-scene forensic services early in his FBI career. But the defining moments in Mr. Safarik’s professional life came during his 23 years with the FBI, where he spent over half that time as a criminal profiler. Mr. Safarik led the consultation efforts on many high profile national and international violent crime cases and lectured at numerous foreign police forces worldwide, sharing his expertise in the analysis of homicide and complex crime scene behavior.🎉 10TH ANNIVERSARY LISTENER APPRECIATION SPECIAL10 years of mysteries. 10 years of incredible listeners.

The ancient Egyptians possessed deep metaphysical knowledge of the soul, referring to it as the Ka (vital essence) and Ba(spiritual personality). These esoteric teachings describe the soul body or spirit shell—a kind of etheric energy fieldthat surrounds and protects the inner consciousness. Much like a nut encased in a shell, your higher self exists within this subtle energy layer, separate from the physical body. This aligns with modern discussions on the astral body, out-of-body experiences, near-death experiences, sacred geometry, and ancient wisdom traditions. Could this be the missing link between ancient mysticism and today's spiritual awakening?🎉 10TH ANNIVERSARY LISTENER APPRECIATION SPECIAL10 years of mysteries. 10 years of incredible listeners.
