Marcus Alexander Bagwell is an American Professional Wrestler best known by his ring persona Buff Bagwell. He was a major player in pro wrestling and rose to prominence as a member of the NWO faction.   Growing up, Bagwell was a standout baseball player during his tenure in Sprayberry High School, and worked for his family's lumber company. Upon graduating from high school, he started an amateur boxing career. When the lumber company went bankrupt, Bagwell became a certified massage therapist before deciding to become a wrestler.   He debuted in 1990, working for North Georgia Wrestling as Fabulous Fabian. In 1991, he began wrestling with the Global Wrestling Federation (GWF) as The Handsome Stranger, a gimmick suggested by Demolition Axe that saw Bagwell don a Lone Ranger-style mask, and hand out roses to the female fans.   In 1991, Bagwell was hired by World Championship Wrestling and the rest is history. He had moderate success as a babyface tag team wrestler, but really became a household name when he joined the NWO as Buff Bagwell.   In 2001, WCW was purchased by the WWE.

He was released and never returned to the WWE.   He worked several independent dates thereafter, but also struggled with addiction. His demons continued to haunt him through several stints in rehab.

Johnny George grew up in Del Paso Heights in Sacramento, California. Del Paso Heights is considered one of the roughest areas in the Sacramento area. He grew up with a step father who took him in as if he was his own. He was not considered a step father, he was just dad.   Unfortunately, addiction caught hold of Johnny's dad, and that addiction manifested in violent and unhealthy ways. At the age of 12, Johnny witnessed his father take his own life. This event would change the course of Johnny's life.   After this event, Johnny would have difficulties of his own. In later years Johnny would reflect and realize that a lot of his own difficulties stemmed from not being able to process that event. He would struggle through school, but eventually would begin to forge a life of his own.   As he grew, he took on a family of his own. He did not have any biological children of his own, but assumed a fatherly role over the daughters of a significant other. He would assume this role while these kids were young, but he would continue his relationship with them as they grew to be adults. Again, he was not a step father, as he learned from his father, he was just dad.   Unfortunately, one of his daughters would leave the home one night, and never return. In the days to come, he would learn that his daughter was murdered and left in her burning car near the river. The murderers have never been caught, and the case is still pending.   Hear the harrowing story. Hear the effects of violence and tragedy and how it can shape a life.

Betty J. Kovacs Ph. D. is a professor, author and speaker who teaches about the prehistoric link between western religious culture and altered states of consciousness. Her extensive research of the shaman-mystic spiritual tradition reveals how western religion has covered up its mystic roots.   Dr. Kovacs received her Ph.D. from UC Irvine and taught Literature, Writing and Symbolic/Mythic Language for 25 years. She served many years as Chair and Program Chair on the Board of Directors of the Jung Society of Claremont in California and sits on the Academic Advisory Board of Forever Family Foundation.   Within a 3 year period, Dr. Kovacs experienced the deaths of her mother, son and husband in separate motor vehicle collision. While she had studied shamanism before her son’s accident, she and her husband actually experienced their son’s consciousness after his death for an extended period of time. These experiences completely changed their lives.   Her first book, The Miracle of Death: There Is Nothing But Life, is about these altered states of consciousness. After her retirement, she began an intensified period of research into our ancestors’ experience of a vaster consciousness, Cosmic/Christ Consciousness, which she relates in her new book, Merchants of Light: The Consciousness That Is Changing the World, winner of the Nautilus Silver Book Award and The Scientific & Medical Network 2019 Book Prize. Anthony Chene’s documentary, A Spiritual Renaissance, is about her life and work (YouTube 2021).   Dr. Kovacs comes on the podcast to discuss her life, her work and the early mystic roots of Christianity. She discusses views of Christ from "lost gospels," including early mystic doctrines that Jesus was married and that God is married. She discusses the use of psychedelics in religions and the lost faith in spiritual experience as opposed to logical reasoning.   You can also find the Edlow Podcast on Apple Podcast, Spotify and everywhere else that Podcasts are published!   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@joshedlow5046   Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-edlow-podcast/id1647995293   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1cZsLJ92XWq5lguDVyV5qj?si=Uw9UqoWHRGKDOHZ7T7xK-A   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100086217048530&mibextid=LQQJ4d   Instagram: @Edlow_Podcast   Tik Tok: @j_edlow

Kaiyah Price is a 21 year old member of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. She recently returned home after serving for the last 18 months as a missionary in Chile.   Kaiyah was born and raised in the church. She is the oldest child in her family and so she feels some responsibility to set an example for her siblings. One area where she felt impressed to set that example is through missionary work.    She has planned on serving a mission since she received a special Patriarchal Blessing. In that blessing, she was told that serving a mission was part of God's plan for her. She never strayed from that course.    However, her mission presented several unique challenges for her. From learning the language, to sickness, to difficult companions, Kaiyah was presented struggles that allowed her to learn and grow. Some of these difficulties allowed her to look inward to ask God "what lack I yet?" Asking this question allowed her to understand the true meaning of service, the wonderfulness of God's grace and the importance of self worth.    Kaiyah comes on the podcast to discuss her story. She talks about her successes, her struggles, the love of God, the meaning of Grace and so much more.    You can also find the Edlow Podcast on YouTube, Apple Podcast, Spotify and everywhere else that Podcasts are published!   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@joshedlow5046   Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-edlow-podcast/id1647995293   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1cZsLJ92XWq5lguDVyV5qj?si=Uw9UqoWHRGKDOHZ7T7xK-A   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100086217048530&mibextid=LQQJ4d   Instagram: @Edlow_Podcast   Tik Tok: @j_edlow

Kenny Ballentine is a documentary filmmaker, interviewer and podcaster. His latest film, "Healing Us," explores the deficiencies of US Healthcare system and alternatives that are available throughout the world.   In addition to filmmaking, Kenny has a fascinating story of his own. Born to a Mormon family of democrats in the 80s, he felt a little out of place in most circles. As he progressed, significant childhood trauma caused mental health issues that would later manifest in significant and impactful ways. That, coupled with closeted bisexuality, caused him to feel further isolated.   Nevertheless, he pushed forward in faith, serving a full time mission for the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints in England. It was there that his testimony was challenged greatly as the veracity of the church's truth claims came into question.   He returned home, married his wife Amber and pursued a career in film.   This is Part II of this two part series. We dive deeper into understanding the concept of Non-Binary, Mental Health and the benefits of EMDR therapy and more discussion about the experience of someone who leaves the LDS church.   You can also find the Edlow Podcast on Apple Podcast, Spotify and everywhere else that Podcasts are published!   YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@joshedlow5046    Apple Podcast: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-edlow-podcast/id1647995293   Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/1cZsLJ92XWq5lguDVyV5qj?si=Uw9UqoWHRGKDOHZ7T7xK-A   Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=100086217048530&mibextid=LQQJ4d   Instagram: @Edlow_Podcast   Tik Tok: @j_edlow
