    Demon Smackdown: When Humans Fight Back

    Join Tim and LeeAnna for Alchemy... Today it’s time for a Demon Smackdown! We’re tackling the toughest enemies of the human spirit—inner demons, the bad and evil people who try to manipulate and harm, and even those spiritual demons lurking in the shadows. Today our podcasters discuss how humans fight back against these forces—whether they’re rooted in our own minds or lurking in the supernatural world around us. Can we reclaim control? Tune in for a no-holds-barred conversation about confronting the shadows that haunt us—and finding our way back into the light. This is one you won’t want to miss. Ready to take on the demons? Let’s get started. As with all our podcasts, we’ve spared you the soul-sucking ads that fill your inbox with "life-changing" products you didn’t ask for. You won’t hear about new-age "demon repellent" sprays or "spiritual cleanses" that promise to banish your inner demons for just $19.99. You’re welcome—because we care about your peace of mind, not your wallet. If any of those ads sneak in, though, I promise we didn’t approve them. Just blame it on the algorithm’s obsession with selling you the latest ‘quick fix’—because when it comes to demons, there’s no magic bullet. You’ve got to face them head-on.

    Moral Dread: When Demons Deliver Life Lessons

    Demons aren't just fiery, horned creatures from hell—they’re life lessons in disguise. In this episode of Alchemy, LeeAnna and Tim dive deep into the concept of moral dread, where our darkest impulses—greed, lust, sloth, envy—aren't just fears, but cautionary tales lurking in our own human nature. We’ll explore how demons can be a mirror, reflecting our worst traits and offering a sharp reminder of what happens when we let them take the wheel. Is the fear of these demons enough to keep us in check, or do we need a more urgent warning? Tune in for a conversation that's both chilling and enlightening, as we unpack how demons deliver life's hardest lessons—whether we like it or not. As with all our podcasts, this is free of those annoying ads—and in place of them, we bring you something far more interesting: Confusite! This deep purple gem has absolutely no known properties, but that’s what makes it so powerful. Simply place it under your pillow, and watch as evil spirits are immediately baffled. They’ll be so busy trying to figure out if they’re dealing with a cursed object or a really bad piece of interior decor that they’ll forget all about you. Confusite—because sometimes, the best defense is pure, unadulterated confusion. Podcast image links: Lucifer (pride) Asmodeus (lust) Leviathan (envy) Beelzebub (gluttony) Mammon (greed) Satan (wrath) Belphegor (sloth) Jinn / Genie. Chaos, deception, and mischief. Often capable of shape shifting or granting wishes with disastrous consequences. And they make travelers lost in the woods, cause them to become disoriented Chaneques - short, green-skinned creatures, and it is believed they can make travelers lost in the woods or cause them to become disoriented - Buer - described as a demon with the body of a lion and the head of a man with five goat legs - Tikbalang - described as having the body of a man and the head and hooves of a horse. It is known to lurk in the forest and trick travelers into losing their way - The Wendigo - It is said to possess humans, transforming them into Wendigos, driven by a craving for human flesh. The Wendigo's most unusual feature is its constant hunger, which cannot be satiated—leading it to consume anything, even other Wendigos Krampus – weird German evil brother to Santa with a giant tongue. Germans sent Christmas cards with Krampus on it. Here’s one card, and now another.

    Pressure Makes Diamonds... Or Dust

    Today, Tim & LeeAnna dig deep into the messy, chaotic world of people cracking under pressure—because let’s face it, life’s a pressure cooker, and sometimes the lid just pops. It’s the high-stakes world of war, disaster, and every moment that feels like your last nerve is being plucked like a harp string. Can you handle the heat? Of course, as with all our podcasts, we’ve spared you the soul-crushing ads for that ‘revolutionary’ new makeup foundation that promises to match your skin tone better than ever—because, clearly, we’ve all been walking around with mismatched faces until now. You’re welcome—because we care about your complexion (and your ability to not buy into every glossy claim). And if one of those ads somehow slips through, I swear we didn’t approve it. Just blame it on the algorithm’s love for beauty fads. Read The Snark’s review of this podcast here.Writers’ prompts for this podcast are here.Submission page for Effigy Press here.Effigy Press here.

    The (Not So Much) Wonder Years

    Join Tim and LeeAnna for Alchemy... today, our podcasters venture into Teen Angst, and the wild world of teenagers – those magnificent creatures navigating the perilous terrain of high snakes and life’s oh-so-difficult choices. Because, really, what’s a teen’s life without a few near-death experiences in the form of social media drama, questionable fashion choices, and the unrelenting pressure to know what you want to do with your life by the time you’re 18? Strap in, folks—this is going to be a bumpy ride through the storm that is adolescence. Of course, just like in every episode, we’ve spared you from listening to ads. But here’s the thing: if you’ve been typing in “Alchemy20” everywhere you shop, hoping to magically get 20% off, well... I hate to break it to you, but that’s not how this works. We don’t have a magical discount code for every site on the internet—if we did, we’d be too busy sipping cocktails on a beach somewhere. But hey, we’re still here creating content that’s worth your time. So sit back, relax, and let the real magic happen Read The Snark’s review of this podcast here.Writers’ prompts for this podcast are here.Submission page for Effigy Press here.Effigy Press here.

    When Reality Met Fiction: The Meet Cute

    Join Tim and LeeAnna for Alchemy... Today, our podcasters tackle the overhyped meet-cute—and then dive into its far more entertaining cousin, the meet-ugly. Writers, get ready to throw your tired old tropes out the window. Non-writers, stick around anyway—it’s going to get weird, and you’ll probably learn something without even trying. Of course, as with all our podcasts, we’ve spared you the anxiety-fueled ads for home security systems that spend 30 seconds making you terrified someone’s about to break in—only to promise they’ll fix it for just a dollar a day. You’re welcome—because we care about your peace of mind (and your bank account). And if one of those ads sneaks through, I swear we didn’t approve it. Just blame it on the algorithm’s love for stressing you out, then ‘solving’ it."

Non-writers, stay tuned anyway—for a battle between good and evil.

You’re welcome—because we care about your financial future (and your ability to sleep without looking over your shoulder). And if one of those ads sneaks in, I swear we didn’t approve it. Just blame it on the algorithm’s questionable side hustle.
