During this conversation Matt and MJ get into the history of Alchemy. They discuss the myth of turning lead into gold, and whether anyone has actually done it. They then touch on alchemical art and what it represents. They also discuss the Philosopher's Stone, what it is, and whether or not it truly exists. Near the end MJ shares a simple alchemical experiment listeners can try at home. Find the episode now on all major podcast platforms. As always, thanks for listening and I hope you take something away from this conversation.
