During the Podcasts, I will tell you about scary, terrifying, dangerous, deadly, tear-jerking, hilarious, loving, and stupid events that happened during my 76 year Journey, as I truly lived on the edge.

 You will learn what it’s like to be an adopted boy whose genetic makeup is meant for explosives, magic, and danger; yet is raised within a Pacifistic 200 year old ultra-conservative Church environment.

 Join me as I describe building and exploding  dozens of black powder bombs in High School in Elgin, Illinois; studied the occult and discovered there are truly ghosts, demons, and monsters at Stone Manor on Lake Geneva, Wisconsin. There’s Love, over a bowl of mashed potatoes at Manchester College, Indiana; then marriage, divorce, remarriage, and yes… divorce a second time. 

 Then there’s Vietnam….. and how do I describe this…. “playing” with the “3-digit” boys; that’s like NSA, DIA, CIA, OSI, FBI. And I will explain the world of Security Services (SSIR) and their extreme paranoia and secrecy. I will explain all those acronyms and what impact they had on me for 40+ years. Then there’s the 5th Air Force War Room in Tokyo, Japan.

 Then I will take you on the 1968 to 1970 part of the Journey when I actually built a night club in Tokyo for an utterly gorgeous blonde British ex-pat named Romy, with terrifying, funny, and sexually explicit happenings, as well as serious results when the “3-digit” boys decided to take advantage of it!!!

 I will also take you on my one year Journey thru Hollywood with Peter Paul who was Fabio’s agent at the time and let you see the underbelly of Hollywood. With Peter Paul I began a journey that would lead me to Eastern Europe, Russia, the Ukraine, Belarus, etc. I will describe how it felt to be one of the few people that knew the Ukrainians had lost the codes to their nuclear arsenal!!! The “3-digit” boys rejoin the Journey yet again. All that brought a new meaning to spies, spies, and yet more spies.

 There is one caveat, however, and that has to do with names of individuals. In a few special cases, I reserve the right to use initials or fake names. This will be either to protect the individual or, yah, and me, even now!

 I want to assure you that there can be a heavy toll if you decide to Live on the edge.

Please join me on this Journey. Thank You for listening.
