Speaker 1 (00:02):
Welcome back to another episode of Alchemy. This it's a
me Cool Stratton momentarily doing a crap super Mario impression,
or Mario if you're from the East Coast. Kevin is
stuck reading every volume of Garfield, so we'll sold your
oud without him. Let's meet our alchemists, shall we? In
no particular orders. Say hello to that guy who takes
out a guitar at every party even though no one
wants him to. Joey Greer, Joey, what bullshit song will

(00:24):
you play as everyone else tries to socialize? It's actually
an original. It's called Streamline, but it's off of Wonderland
from Oasis, so it's their melody, their lyrics, but it's
my song. I'd asked to hear some, but I don't
want to. Next up, he left his Carney life to
pursue improvised podcasting. Craig Kakowski. Craig, what do you miss
most about the Big Top? Well? I miss uh miss

(00:48):
having all my fingers, that's fair. Did you lose them
in podcasting? Yeah? Yeah, I had them all when I
left the Carnal and then Paul taking two of my thumbs,
all of them. He's the only one that EMC Hammer
would allow to touch this. Chris Alvarado, Chris, have you

(01:11):
ever owned parachute pants? And why aren't you wearing some
right now? I have? They're not in fashion currently. That
all makes sense. And finally, this guy knows a thing
or two about soup. James he need he need? Do
you go New England or Manhattan? When faced with the
chowder choice, Oh my god, obviously it's the New England.
I want the cream based thing. I like potato soup,

(01:32):
I like leak soup. I like clam chowder with a
cream based I kind of figured I was hitting the
nail on the head there with the yeah, I mean,
who wants clam chowder with ketchup? That's the opposite, That's
the other option. How many oyster crackers enough to make
a thick like a stew or think like a like

(01:54):
a lot a porch? Yeah, that's actually that is the
exact consistency I'm looking for. I got to do. You know,

(02:58):
to Michigan and Alchemists. There you go. Found the show.
During a commercial break from How Stuff Works, I show
all my friends the show, specifically the crime scene at
Turla's Diner. My scene suggestion a group of inmates are
going to attempt to break out of prison. Maybe a
guard is in on it. Maybe they share what landed
them in the big house. Do what you want. I'm
sure it'll be comedy regardless. Thanks Alchemists. Christ McColl um, James,

(03:20):
he needs number one fan. Damn, Chris, Damn. I don't.
I don't. I think I'm out. I think I'm out.
It feels weird. That doesn't feel right as a vibe
in the What the hell am I gonna do with
this hole? We dog? Well, you guys can go. I
think I'm just gonna hang back. You're hanging back. You're
gonna snitch on a goddamn snitch and we cut his

(03:44):
tongue out. If all right, okay, wait, hold on, hold on,
you guys, just go and ow I can maybe throw
them off your scent. This is a four man plan.
You're out. We're gonna have to make it a three
man plan. I don't like change in plan. I know
you don't. I just honestly, I'll be honest. I don't
like you as people give a funk. We're trying to

(04:06):
get the funk out of this isn't the friends, but
part of the plan is going out to that cabin
out in the woods and laying low for a while,
and frankly, the conversation will be boring. Look, we're only
gonna we're gonna spend two weeks, maybe three weeks stops.
Conversation is boring? What are you talking about? I just mean, like,
we get it. You know a lot about like the
Almanac and stuff. So what so you think that's born?
Information is born? That information? It's all information. He knows

(04:29):
so much about the alman it's insane. I know where
it was printed, how it was printed, who printed it? Now?
And now so do why? Yeah? Great, and you're for it.
I mean that may be the case. But two to
three weeks Okay, then you start a conversation. All right,
no problem, okay, Um, it's hard this way. Wow, it's
hard this way. You know I watched this what what

(04:50):
pages the world series winners on to it? Oh Man?
Right there? That really gets you. He knows so much
about the Almanac. I know where it was printed, how
it was who. I'm just saying, like our crimes that
got us here to begin with, like kind of separate us.
You three are violent criminals, allegedly, as you always say

(05:11):
that because I instant prepare for self check, shelf checks
all the way. I can see it. You can see
it here, he comes here, comes, he comes here, right,
that convicts against the wall. Hands up there. It's just
four guys in one self. We know the trail. Four

(05:31):
guys in one just hanging out here. We got space limitation,
budget cutbacks. It's not my fault. Don't don't get me
like that guy. All right, let's see if you got
any contrabanding here as your wife doing mull rather well,
thanks for good covered from that fall. Okay, that's good. Yeah,

(05:51):
because that's because you can get U an infection, you know,
like lying in bed for that long. That's right. That's right,
she's up. We're doing some general re ham on her knees.
So it's good. Thanks for asking. McClusky. Just a hypothetical,
as you're searching us and touching us and I'll cough
there for you, like what like, like, what's the protocol

(06:15):
if like I don't know, like watch yourself, you know,
like what like would you want the protocol making friends? Yeah,
what's the protocol of making friends? From making friends? You know,
there's no protocol from making friends. There's protocol from making enemies.
Around here, you know that. I guess what I'm saying.

(06:36):
You're you're friendly. I mean, frankly, you feel like you're
one of us. I mean, you treat us with respects
and we appreciate that, right right, right right. And when
I hear that your your wife taking a fall and
recovering it warmps my heart. My wife never recovered from
her fault. Yeah, big infection, big infection. But you murdered
your wife. No, I didn't know. I didn't allegedly allegedly.

(06:59):
I guess what I'm asking is, mclusky, are you fulfilled
with this job? Huh? You know I never really thought
about that, you know, I do. I come down here,
I try to do the best to try to make
this a nice environment for all of us, you know,
because why I make it unpleasant? No? Right, no, no,
you know, but you know what I think about it,
And I had aspirations for other things before I got
into realization. Come on, go on, Well, you know I

(07:24):
was writing this one man show. I want to take
the Broadway. You know. You know what I bet would
help with the writing process is some seclusion, you know,
being away from it all and doing you mean me
and like work out the kinks. Of it and solitary. Yeah,
well yeah something or or or just you know, not
without the clutter of like you know, your her wife

(07:44):
and stuff. I'm sure that's taken away from the creative process.
I'm gonna say it, guys, what what we're getting out
of here? To what? We can trust him? We can
rust him. He's a good guy. You're a good guy.
Come with us? When you say getting out of here?

(08:06):
What's what do you? What are you? What are you doing? What?
We're going to spend two weeks maybe three weeks tops?
You know that cabin is just outside of the prison yard.
We all see it. It's clear to see that. You
can see it right there right there. Yeah, yeah, I
see the cab We know the cabins. You guys, listen,
it's nice, it's furnished. Jones has a rope up his

(08:27):
butt right now. He's a good guy. Wow, this is
a This just got a lot of girth to it.
How did you get it out there? Yeah? Okay, okay,
then look what what what? What I'm trying to ask
you personally is will you come with us? Because I

(08:48):
don't want to go with just these guys. I'm the
wading on the water on the water on the A
lot of these a lot of these press sners don't
really like you. They don't want to like them. I'm
the war I know, but you are. Do something. Let's
get cookies and milk to all the inmates and then

(09:09):
take them away right before they eat and drinking. Hear antagonized.
Think the prisoners, warden, what are they gonna do there
in cages? On the warden listening? They're still human being
some of these people you work for me? Of course,
then you need to shut the funk up? Okay, Okay,
number two, no shoes on the carpet. How many times?
I mean, warden, you have a ten am inspection of

(09:31):
the cells to um inspection? Okay, do you have to
sing everything? Let's let's push it. Huh, let's push it. Okay,
you really have to do the inspection of the cells?
Do I at some point to a cell right now?
It's getting a little out of hand. What if there's
a fire? It's look, the one is gonna be handy minute.

(09:55):
And I don't like that guy either, just because he
played Tony one time in West Side legendation. I've never
seen the tape. I I mean, you've seen a playbill
for it, but he talks about it all the time,
and he said, you know, you should have gone the
Broadway McCloskey. But no, no, you're just the help. He
calls me the help. One man show. Characters are autobiographical.

(10:16):
It's both things, with all the different characters from my life.
But it's a two of the force. It is the force.
I believe it. I believe it. What do you say?
I don't know. I feel like just to stick one
over on him. I kind of want to help you
guys get out of here. What's the name of the
guy who was in um? He was in What the

(10:37):
Boy Here? Bill something or something? He was in the Goddamnit.
He did the William Shakespeare, Bill Irwin, Bill, Bill Clinton.
He held the Oscars like a whole bunch of times,
Billy Crystal. He did a woman's show. He didn't want to.
Did you see it? Yeah? Yeah, seven hundred Sundays about Baseball? No, No,

(10:57):
not that one, not that one, not that one. There
wasn't one. Weird and black face right, No, that was
a mistaken I really think you need to take this
a little more seriously. Must do you work for me?
Then you need to understand that i'd take things seriously
from the top one two three. If you know that,
you let me saying first, what Warden, the guards are

(11:18):
complaining that that you're you're not paying them over time
and you're making them work uh a hundred hours a week.
They stepped it up, they'd get a position on the cast.
Ever since Jeffrey EPs didn't, we've been having a lot
of eyes on us, okay, and you need to take
this seriously because people are getting in trouble. Warden, Snap,

(11:38):
Jeffrey Epstein killed himself. Listen, you know that true. You
know that that's not true. I know that I know
that we did it. If you don't want to come
with us, at least don't tell on us. Jesus man,
do you think that I hate the thing? I can

(11:59):
just leave so I can meet you guys bad. But
the main thing is that I should find a way
to do diversion to cover for you. Maybe I can
get the ward down here and make him watch my
woman show. But I don't know. I don't want you
to be with us. I think I'm out. What do
you mean, hotel, I'll just tell the word, Oh my god,
cut cut his tongue. Alright, don't okay, Jeff would have

(12:21):
been in Jeff, Jeff, Jeff be it Jeff. Alright, alright, alright,
you're right. I'll do it for Jelly Crystal. Do we
say that already? Yes? Alright, alright, tell you what you guys,
sneak out your tunnel here. He's gonna come down to
this sell momentarily, and I will be here and I
will keep him busy. All right, break legs, Oh, thank you,

(12:42):
break legs. Everyone. Al Right, So this is the first sell.
That's the second. So that's the third sell. And that
took a little more than that. Why do I have
to do this? I know what it looks like. I've
seen pictures of cells. It's maintaining like if you don't look,
then then they will think that no one's going to
look in the just it keeps everybody honest. If you
look at everybody, just to look at everyone. That's the

(13:04):
only way to check this off. I have to look
at everyone's self, everyone more honest. And now we're in
cell block. This is officer charge of this. I know. Hello,
hello the gentlemen. I think we're just talking about my
Broadway show. Do you remember that it's a really good
show that you had me printing you. Thank you. Look

(13:26):
at this, officer, McClusky, a playbill of my Broadway show.
That's terrific. Why don't you look at the playbill I
coved into the wall over here on my solo show
that I'm about to show you select scenes. Oh my god,
and actually unfolded. Oh my god, this is detailed. Well
let's see mcsky. Here we go. Turn off your cell phones.

(13:47):
Please don't have the going off during the production signal
in here anyway before were going on the whole the tunnel.
I mean, what do you mean that we're already down,
locked down here. I want to watch this now here.
We should support mcclutsky, will support him by doing the
damn thing because he's doing this person seats. You know
that it's a diversion. He's got guys have to watch

(14:09):
him in a cell. It's fine, okay, that's forced audience
for Christles. I just I wish him the best of lucky.
Great to me to come on. Let's just like the
warden's a tough laugh. Sometimes you gotta get the last
you come on. Stupid idiots, do not go up there
and watch it. We're in the hole, we're escaping. What
is the name of that movie that um avatar? No no, no,

(14:33):
no no, it's with no no, no, no words. Yonkers
nineteen sixty three. Boy, oh boy, I should love to
play t ball with all my friends. Stickballs. We called
it out there. Okay, pitch it in, Willie, pitch it in.
I would shout and Willie would stand me. Doubt he's

(14:55):
toss in that ball. It's a whole run over the
sub way. Oh man. But my father, he was hod,
he was hard. I don't lock everything you up to McCluskey.
He called me McCluskey, even though we all had the
last name McCluskey. I mean, what is that can get
a popcorn and the cook? Yeah, I had to leave
it in the first act. That just wasn't hitting, you know,

(15:17):
just wasn't hitting. We we just have prison food here. Yeah, well,
let me get some popcorn. Make it just theaters changed,
you know what I mean. I'll go back for the
second act. It's gonna be intermission. I'll just kind of
mingling with everybody. I don't even know. I left the
scorns unpopped. Well then pop it. It came from a cant.
I don't think you can put him in solitary, but

(15:37):
he's not a prisoner. Will give a damn all right,
Oh my god. You know, McCluskey going out there doing
a one man show just pisces me off. You know,
it's like I'm the warden. I was on Broadway. That
was a great first act, great first act. The house
is really loving it. Um, you might have noticed there
was an empty seat the warden. He had to use
the restaurant three minutes, Thank you three he had to

(16:00):
use the in the middle of my show. Well, it's
probably an emergency. But but he's coming back, so bringing home.
Oh I sure will, Okay, goddamn right, I will. I
don't want to sund And then why don't we have
an open bar. Why is that not a thing? Well,
because the prisoners are not supposed to be drinking, sir,
Oh but I can't have a drink. You can have
a drink in your office. Then let's have an open

(16:22):
more down here for cuts. Then get some LCO. Here's
thirty dollars, go get some alcohol. Come back. I mean
the prisoners have probably made some moonshine or something. Well,
then get that. I don't pay them thirty dollars. Why
do I have to think of everything? I wouldn't drink it, sir,
Oh why not? Do you think I'm a little bit boy? Drink?
Flashing lights, flashing lights, flashing lights flashing. It looks like
second act starting flashing. I'll take my seat, and it

(16:44):
looks like to drink. It was that night that my
father was killed by Mickey Mantle. Bullshit, I'm sorry, bullshit,
I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Oh wait, what you heck on
my show one really Want? I don't know? Said that? Yeah,
you said it, and I'm gonna say this. You would
make a lousy Tony. Oh come on, you would make

(17:05):
a terrible Tony. I was Tony. You would not Tony.
I was right. We have this play bill that shows
that you clearly no. Look, you crossed out your role
of baby John, and you wrote in Tony the same thing.
Baby John grows up to Tony. He does not. He's
told he's Freddy. It's like four lines. Baby John's one
of the lesser jets. Thank you, thank you, yes, yes,

(17:27):
Now listen. If you think that you I'm not supporting you.
What has happened to mutiny? What is happening. That's right,
it makes rise up set. You are a jet all
the way from your first I don't know the worst.
Hold on, he didn't play Tony, he didn't play Tony.

(17:48):
Wait wait, twite twaite on the war Marian, Maria, Maria,
that's Mario the West Side story. Wow, this cabin is nice.
I hope McCluskey is doing okay, All right, let's let's
hear it. Let's start a conversation. Well only just got here.

(18:09):
I know, I know that we got time start a conversation.
Did you know that the that the Almanac chapter and
that's our first say C number two. Hello, alchemists. My
name is Joseph. I'm a recently transplant to the DC area,

(18:30):
and I'm working as an intern among thousands of other insurns.
My name, Your name is Joey. Were really really taking aback?
I find myself audibly laughing on the busy subway as
I spent my time between stops listening to the alchemy
that is this. But I digress. My suggestion to you
is to create a scenario based on the old joke blank,

(18:50):
a blank and a blank walk into a bar. I'm
just curious to see what you all come up with,
and with hope I will one day find myself in
a city where you all will be performing, so I
can join my laughter on others. Keep up the accident work.
Joseph the same name as Joey. There you get another beer? Yes? Father,
what would you like to drink? Just another beer? Um? Man,
come on, okay, father, don't call me that right now?

(19:13):
Just just call me then. Just take your the collar
off because it's uh. I can't. I'm very deeply religious
and with that collar, I want to call you father.
Oh my god. And here's a PBR PBO whatever said?
Any beer? Good? Are you okay? You need somebody to
talk to? That's funny. It's just that I've talk to you.

(19:38):
Don't you want to do a confession? No, I'm asking
you if you want to do a confession. I'm so sorry.
Confession Does that sound better? It does sound better. Quack
quack quack quick, look at that duck hanging a beer? Please? Sure?
What would you like? I'll have what he's having? Quack quack.

(19:59):
There you go. Um, if you want, we can wait
for the duck to leave so we have privacy. I'm
not asking you to share your problems with the whole bar.
I don't want to. I never I never offered to
do that. You know what the problem with women is?
I sure do. Why don't you tell me? They don't
get us? Am I right? They don't get I'm selling, man,
I'm selling. Yeah. Yeah, that was a tight one by

(20:24):
a long face, my friend. Fuck you, fuck you man.
I'm sorry. I get that every place. I WoT. I'm sorry.
What can I get you to give me a schlitz
and some oats? Okay, Luke, I'm so sorry to do this,
but we're gonna have to shut your bar down. What well,
there's animals shooting and pissing all over the place, not

(20:45):
just a health hazer. We can't have them to say
it's a bar. What's the difference the other day? I
I was, I was a secret shopper. I was in
that corner booth. I remember you, well, I guess I
wasn't a secret shopper that I didn't know you were
a secret shopper. I just remember you being there. Look,
I was at your bar and a priest, a duck
and a horse walked into your bar. And do you

(21:05):
know what happened next? I mean, I was there. See.
The problem is is that they say they understand quack quack,
but they don't don't not at all. You're right, You're right, friend, right? Father?
I mean, I'm settlement. I'm selivan. So I don't. You
don't talk to women. I talked to women. But I mean,
what you're just discussing here, it just seems to be
a personal issue. So what's your issue? My issue? What more?

(21:26):
My issue is everyone comes to me looking for their
goddamn help, and I'm just another human being. And guess what,
I guess what. I don't have all the goddamn answers.
I don't have all the answers. Is there a heaven?
I don't know? Is there a hell? Probably? Listen? Listen, listen, listen, listen.
My institution is sucked up. Okay, I rolled the dice
on this thing I thought was gonna work out for me.
I was wrong. Who's wrong? People are flawed. People are flawed.

(21:49):
People can fix it. People can fix it problem. And
we get this man's father, and we got to make
sure that one by what you to have another beer?
Or should I just get you your bill? Fuck you? Oh?
So that? I mean that was the problem. It was

(22:10):
just low steaks humor. Well, I was high stakes characters.
I don't think you understand this. As a bartender, I'm
just trying to take everybody's bad day and make it
go away. That that's fine, that's fine, But understand there's
feces and urine. Yeah there was is. I mean, it's
only I've cleaned it and it has come back again.

(22:32):
Those are regulars regardless. That's like what would be if
there was another, I mean another it comes in. You
have to get some music going in the bar to
ever since that ten inch pianist quit listen, It's the
thing is that sometimes the music's in the way the conversation.
If they want to go clubbing, they can go clubbing,
but our bar is known for good conversations. What a

(22:53):
draw a ten inch pianist? I mean, how many other
musicians are that tiny quack? Father? Um, this woman is
making eyes at you, just saying okay, well well great.
I mean it seems like you're throwing it all the way.
So you know, I could introduce you. She's she's nice.
I'm sure she's fine. It's the duck and the horse

(23:15):
that hate women. I I don't I know you you
say that you're you never women. The whole conversation, the
whole conversation was about how you were just disenfranchised with
the other gender because they rejected you because you're not
their space sheets. Man. You understand that they're not. You're
not there. Funny, all right, I won't introduce you to
you've made it pretty clear you don't like women. You

(23:38):
know what the I'm totally I love people in a
bar brandishing a firearm, and what's wrong with that I've
made I've taken a lot of liberties and quack, Oh
my god, oh my god, it's just a duck, and fine,
just shut up, holy shit, let's eat it. But we're

(23:59):
gonna have to right father now, we're never going to
talk about this again. And you're gonna eat some d
that whole time I was in that corner booth. You
killed a duck and ate it. It does a lot
of people. That's a normal thing. I'm sorry, Luke, I'm sorry.
We're gonna have to revoke your bar stack. No. You

(24:21):
know how hard it is to get a license. We
know where the city board. Look. I'm sorry, Luke, who's wrong?
I cook it, but I don't know what's wrong. I
just want any of the outs anymore. You keep I

(24:42):
had some beech jerkey out there, and he ate some
of that. I don't know what's happening. What's wrong with
that horse? I don't know. I think it might be carniferous.
Now look, well, why don't you ask him? He is
a talking horse of broke that kind of subjects with him. Look,
this is, this is I don't know what's going on.
A lot of the ducks, A lot of the bunnies
have a miss and on the farm. They usually go
into his barn and they talk it up and it

(25:02):
seems very comfortable. And but that just I've been finding
bones and tufts of the hair in his stall. Think
horses gun carnivorous, That's what I'm saying. Look, we got
a lot of talking animals, that's Jim, I know that,
But this one's scaring me. Every time I walk by,
he licks his chops and understand that we don't walk by.
How I have to do use the restroom? You wanted

(25:25):
that guy to him out house. He's got a big
race this weekend. Hey can I borrow on an MP
three player? Yeah? Sure, here you going? Thank you, Jim.
I'm just I'm just nervous. Maybe maybe getting this talking
farm with's a bad idea. You get, you gotta get
an iPod two rather than just a generic imp the
same thing they all upload. It's the same, the designers

(25:47):
superior and the Oh it's not it's not at all.
Horse he gonna eat you, Horse, he gonna eat Okay,
what the hell? What the hell the piggy said this?
The god damn bath what the hell you? I'm gonna
