Today we learn about a metaphysical cult, James Bernard Schafer, and how prunes play into immortality.

James Bernard Schafer

Join us, intrepid listeners, as we journey through the compelling, odd, and sometimes horrific lengths people will go to in hopes of  achieving eternal life. We’ll hear what--and who--the subjects of our stories were willing to sacrifice to possibly gain a few more years of youth and beauty and life. And we’ll all ask the question: how far would you take the hunt if you were chasing immortality?
