(The Weight Of The Human Soul) *** Fifty years before Roswell was the reported crash of a flying saucer in Aurora, Texas – and it remains as much of a mystery today as it was then. (The 1897 UFO Crash in Aurora, Texas) *** What would cause a father to have his daughter arrested for a non-violent crime?

(Phantoms Behind The Wheel) ==========HOUR TWO: Sometimes drugs can work too well – for example, a hair-loss prevention drug could turn your own children into hairy wolfman-like monsters! (Drugs Turn Babies Into Werewolves) *** But first… it has several names all over the world such as the Bogey Beast, the Black Shuck, Hairy Jack, Padfoot, Striker, and more. But a phantom black dog by any other name is still a phantom black dog. We begin with that story. (Phantom Black Dogs) *** Dalton Highway is already a scary road for those driving down the ice-covered highways of Alaska. The loneliness on the barren stretch of highway can go on for hours without seeing a single soul. But for one ice road trucker, that solitude would be interrupted by something terrifying and unexplainable. (The Terror On Dalton Highway) *** Forget hats, sunglasses and knee watches—the summer accessory you didn't know you need is a poison-detecting guinea pig carrying case! (Guinea Pig Drinking Buddy)==========SUDDEN DEATH OVERTIME: More stories from “Phantoms Behind the Wheel” *** The dark practice of body snatching was a lucrative business, committed by those with a strong stomach and a willingness to disturb the dead to turn a profit. (Body Snatchers) *** Megalodon died out millennia ago. But our fascination with this mighty shark will never go extinct. We are so obsessed with this ancient leviathan that people still claim to spot Megalodon even today – but that couldn't be, could it? (The Return of Megalodon) *** Megalodon isn't the only creature of the deep people report sighting. For centuries a denizen of oceanic monsters have allegedly been seen – but the question is whether or not they are fact or fantasy. (Sea Myths or Sea Monsters) *** Hunters come across a strange note left behind by someone who claimed he'd been stuck in the wilderness for over a week and was out picking berries, but the hunters soon realized there was no one out berry-picking, for the person who wrote the note was already dead – and had been for over two weeks.

One area of everyday life in which to practice civility is that of conversation. A civil discussion is the free and respectful exchange of diverse ideas. This doesn't mean we all have to agree, but it does mean we must agree respectfully. To paraphrase Justice Stewart, “I'm not sure what it is, but I know it when I see it;” or not see it as the case maybe around the world. Please join Ambassador Dr. Clyde Rivers and I on Saturday, December 12, 2020 at 3:00 P.M. (EST) or 12:00 P.M.

What can we do to help empower our daughters in today's world? From a young age, women receive messages about how to be nice, compliant, accommodate others, and gain approval, both from the families and the communities they grow up in. Messages are often subtle and not conscious. They can sound like: Be nice to your brother. Don't interrupt. Stop being so dramatic. Why are you being so difficult? Don't you care how I feel? Young women today are growing up in a culture in which people may be uncomfortable with women expressing feelings like anger. As parents, we want our daughters to grow up confident, with an amazing sense of self-worth, a whole lot of resilience, and respect for others and our diversity. Join us Saturday, November 7, at 3:00 P.M. (EST) / 2:00 P.M. (CST) / 10:00 P.M. (GMT) / 12:30 A.M. (EDT) as we have Conversation That Matters:

How do you think like a winner in your life and what action do you take? Lots of people strive to become great but get held back by the negativity of the world and the people around them. Whatever you believe, picture in your mind, and think about most of the time, you eventually will bring into reality. In its simplest form, expectation theory says you generally get what you expect. To be a winner you have to think like one. It's no secret that thinking is the key ingredient to success, and if you can master it then you can achieve any result you can dream of. “Winners spend time every day doing something that makes them uncomfortable because they know that's where growth comes from” – Tim Denning Please join us Saturday, November 14 at 3:00 P.M. (EST) to discuss “Olympic Mindset: Thinking Like Winners.” #CommunicationMastery #RemovingBarriersBuildingConnections #ConnectingYouToYourNextLevel #ConversationsThatMatters #WeAskTheQuestionsThatMatters #IamTheSolution

Please join Rev. Dr. Sharon Anderson, Esq. and I, Saturday, October 31 at 3:00 P.M. (EST) as we discuss the importance of Exercise Your Right to Vote. As Franklin D. Roosevelt said, NOBODY will ever deprive the American people of the right to vote EXCEPT the American people THEMSELVES and the only way they could do this Is BY NOT VOTING. Voting is a very important part of any democracy. Consider what this country could be. Remember what it was like when we treated each other with dignity and respect? Are we better off than we were four years ago? Can you image a better future? MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD! GET OUT THE VOTE!!

Please join Sr. Pastor Phinehas Kinuthia and I as we have further conversation regarding “Rethinking The Role of The Church,” Saturday, October 24th at 3:00 P.M. (EST). Part 1 was DYNAMIC!! Part 2 will be equally IMPACTFUL!!!

The leadership, organizational skills, and sense of community and commitment that come from “going for the Gold” will evolve this young lady into an amazing leader by changing the world.

We have been part of all elements of #hiphop since we were kids. We have used Hip-Hop to bring change in social, political, and economic institutions in most cities of US and North America. We have used Hip-Hop to lead many to the Lord and also as a platform to mentor the next generation of leaders. God has given us sound teachers so that we could be sound as we mentor people in every state and around the world.

We often wonder why the younger generation have taken a change in direction from the older generations belief system as is evident in their interpersonal communication behavior. They are more assertive, honest, upfront, and forthright as compared to the older generation who continue to respect the power differentials. Communication is always evolving. No matter what country, the meaning and interpretation will change as humans change. Join Professor Mateus Mutola and I as we have “Conversation That Matters” with our Special Guest Onesimo Singa and Cecilia Dimande from Maputo, Mozambique on Saturday, September 19th at 3:00 P. M.

Please join me on Saturday, September 12 as we Rethink The Role of The Church. A man of principle, kingdom principle A builder, kingdom builder A man who walk the walk and talk the talk Senior Pastor Phinehas Kinuthia was born and raised in poverty in Kenya, East Africa. At an early age, he received Christ and answered God's call to the ministry. His compelling story truly embodies his message that anyone can make their dreams a reality. It is in pursuit of his dreams that God opened a door for him to come to the US as a missionary. His heart is to see a church that reflects the kingdom which is multicultural and multigenerational. God has made it clear that our strength as a church is equipping individuals to discover and fulfill their God given assignment in their sphere of influence. #CommunicationMastery #RemovingBarriersBuildingConnections #ConnectingYouToYourNextLevel #ConversationsThatMatters #WeAskTheQuestionsThatMatters #IamTheSolution

“The Real Story Behind THE FUGITIVE”, and More True Eerie Stories! #WeirdDarknessIf you like the podcast, please leave a review in the podcast app you listen from, and share a link to the podcast on Facebook and Twitter to invite others to become Weirdos too!IN THIS EPISODE: (Dark Archives episode with stories from March 19-20, 2019) *** The case was one of the most famous – and controversial – of the 1950s and went on to inspire the TV show and film of “The Fugitive”, as well as Stephen King’s story and the film “The Shawshank Redemption”. It’s the true story of Dr. Sam Shepard. (The Real-Life Fugitive) *** It's bad enough when you have a scary, eerie experience, but it's even worse when nobody believes you, insisting that you're either lying or just imagining things. Whether you hear voices calling to you at night or come face-to-face with something that's not of this world, it is definitely better when at least one person will back you up, or else you might question your own sanity. (Why Won’t Anyone Believe Me?) *** A creepy true story from Weirdo family member Courtney Rondeau. (It Was The Light That Woke Me) *** What began as a robbery turned into something far more horrific. July 14, 1966, an inebriated robber stumbled into a Chicago townhouse and took the lives of eight young women. (The Brutality of Richard Speck) *** A woman explains away odd happenings in her home – until she can no longer come up with explanations. (The Ghost I Know) *** Was journalist Danny Casolaro murdered after uncovering a vast global conspiracy called the Octopus? (Hunting The Octopus) *** The Wendigo. It appears in numerous areas of pop culture, like the TV shows “Supernatural” and “The X Files”, the movie “Ravenous”, and games such as “Dungeons and Dragons”, along with video games like “Final Fantasy” and “Until Dawn”.

Let's face it: even the the most shy of us require some degrees of human interaction. They're necessary on both a personal and professional level. In this week's episode, team members Sonya Robinson and Mike Bills discuss with our October co-host, Erin Patten of Ponyride, how we can build sustainable and enriching connections.

(5:19) Start with small things to create a pattern of success. Tip of the Week Ownership starts with the small things. If you act responsibly you will get more responsibility.
