EPISODE 147 | Man Out of Time: The Comte St. Germain
He composed and played music, spoke several languages, was versed in alchemy and the early sciences, and hung around with the likes of Mozart and Casanova, yet no one even knew his real name. Voltaire called him the “Wonderman”, though that may have been sarcasm, but most came to know him as the Comte, or Count, St. Germain. One of his many wild boasts and claims was that he was more than 500 years old. Perhaps even older than that.
Just who was this mysterious figure who showed up in 18th century salons? Was he more or less than what he claimed to be?
