The Broken System Podcast
Welcome to "The Broken System Podcast," where we delve into the intricate web of societal challenges that individuals face when caught in the crosshairs of a flawed system. Join us as we shine a light on the untold stories of those marginalized by circumstances beyond their control – whether it's the impact of drugs, the world of prostitution, or the weight of financial disparity.
In each episode, we unravel the complex narratives that often remain hidden beneath the surface, exploring the human experiences and emotions that arise when individuals find themselves grappling with a world that seems stacked against them. With empathy and insight, we engage in conversations that seek to understand the systemic forces at play, the personal battles fought, and the resilience that emerges from the shadows.
Through thought-provoking interviews, in-depth research, and poignant storytelling, "The Broken System Podcast" aims to foster a deeper understanding of how these issues intersect and perpetuate cycles of disadvantage. By amplifying voices that are often unheard, we strive to ignite conversations that lead to positive change, empathy, and a collective effort to mend a system that has left far too many behind.
Join us on a journey of discovery, empathy, and empowerment as we explore the stories that challenge our perceptions and inspire us to work towards a more just and equitable society for all. #thebrokensystempodcast

The Broken System - Season 2 - Episode 12: The Disappearance of Chisti Jo Nicols
Mark Nichols and his wife, Christi, had been married for three years when an evening out took a dark turn. Leaving their two children with a babysitter, they went to a bar. Mark returned after midnight, paid the sitter in cash, and things took a strange twist. Usually, it was Christi who handled the payment, and she did it with a check. The babysitter later claimed she didn't believe Christi came home with Mark.
The next day, Mark reported Christi missing, stating they argued until 2:00 a.m. before he went to sleep. He woke up at 7:00 a.m., realizing Christi was gone. Instead of immediately reporting it, he took the kids to Christi's grandmother and spent two hours supposedly searching for her. However, no one in town reported seeing him.
Mark moved out the day after Christi's disappearance, selling their belongings and vehicles. Christi's purse and suitcase were later found at an Interstate 80 rest stop in March 1988, with all the contents intact, as if intentionally placed to be discovered.
Christi, facing marital problems and alleged abuse, had met with a divorce attorney two days before disappearing. She sought custody of her children and expressed a desire to end the marriage. Mark's version of events differed significantly, and his polygraph results were inconclusive.
The unsettling discovery of trace amounts of Christi's blood raised suspicions. Mark claimed it was menstrual blood, but analysis disproved his statement. Despite these red flags, Mark currently lives in Arkansas with his third wife, and foul play is suspected in Christi's disappearance.
Join us as we unravel the mysterious disappearance of Christi Nichols, a quiet and dedicated mother whose case remains unsolved to this day.
