Long before chemistry set up its tidy labs, alchemy was stirring in smoky chambers filled with scrolls, crucibles, and a lot of wishful thinking. From Ancient Egypt to the medieval hunt for the Philosopher’s Stone, this episode traces how alchemy blended science, spirituality, and a little bit of fraud. We’ll meet the dreamers who thought lead could turn into gold, the mystics who saw hidden truths in metals, and even Isaac Newton, who spent more time on alchemy than on gravity. It’s a story of explosions, symbols, and the strange path from magic to modern science.New Episodes: Mon/Wed/Fri (If people enjoy, and feedback via reviews and ratings is good, will release daily)Request an episode: [email protected] History Of is your daily dose of weird, wonderful, and occasionally ridiculous history.
