Modern science can’t quite shake its obsession with alchemy. Chemists have finally cracked the code and created gold, but what if alchemy had a different purpose all along? The final episode in our philosopher’s stone trilogy explores alchemy in the modern era, from Nicholas Flamel to Newton to nuclear physics and beyond!  

Researched, written, and produced by Thomas Ignatius and Corinne Wieben, featuring the voice talents of Gregg Adams, John Pippen, and Lenny Scovel and original music by Purple Planet. Special thanks to Librivox for the recording of Paradise Lost. 

You can find a digital collection of Isaac Newton’s alchemical manuscripts at Indiana University’s The Chymistry of Isaac Newton
