In this week’s episode, Jimmy dives into the bizarre and captivating world of medieval alchemy, inspired by a cryptic fortune cookie that sent him spiraling down a rabbit hole of lead, gold, and questionable experiments. Joined by Alex Carter, a curator and archivist with a love for ancient technologies, the two unravel the mysteries of alchemy, from its philosophical roots to its wildest (and most absurd) experiments.
Together, they explore how alchemists believed in transforming not just metals but also themselves, blending science, mysticism, and a heavy dose of optimism. Jimmy and Alex also dig into alchemy’s surprising legacy, showing how it laid the groundwork for modern science while reminding us why skepticism is essential for progress.
With Jimmy’s signature blend of humor and curiosity and Alex’s deep knowledge (and chaotic energy), this episode is a chaotic alchemical concoction you won’t want to miss. Tune in for the laughs, stay for the enlightenment, and maybe learn why mixing mercury with ambition can be a recipe for both disaster and discovery.
