“Eau de Afterlife: What Do Ancient Egyptian Mummies Smell Like?” #WeirdDarkness #MindofMarlar

“The Old Die Rich”: They found him in an alley, dead of hunger, with seventeen thousand dollars sewn into the lining of his coat. He wasn't the first. He wouldn't be the last. Every one of them old. Every one of them starved. Every one of them carrying a bank book whose entries went back fifty years — in ink only months old. Private investigator Mark Weldon has chased the pattern across the city, and the pattern keeps leading back to a brownstone on Eldridge Avenue, and a beautiful red-haired physicist with ice-blue eyes and a want-ad that only hires men nobody will miss. Her name is May Roberts. Her laboratory hums behind a locked door. And the old men who walk through it come home rich — just in time to die. | #RetroRadio #WeirdDarkness | EP0634 Look for this podcast on YouTube Music, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and numerous other podcast apps.

Last Wednesday, somewhere over Iowa, I watched a shiny object make a ninety-degree turn inside a cloud and then reverse course back into it. I don't know what I saw. But I know that the two responses most Christians would have to a sighting like mine are both wrong — and Scripture actually commands a third way that almost nobody practices.
