In this episode of Alchemy, Tim and LeeAnna set sail through the Love Archipelago, exploring the rocky islands of human emotion. First stop: “Desire and Disappointment” - where we chase love but find out we’re way better at the chase than the actual thing. Then, onto “Love as an Existential Completeness” - the soulmate myth that feels more like a trap than true connection. Finally, “Love as Animals Wandering Through the World” - because sometimes love is just about finding a mate to share a Netflix account with. If you’re ready to question everything about love, relationships, and whether we’re all just stumbling through life, this episode is for you. Spoiler: no one’s escaping the wreckage.
Listen up—this podcast is ad-free. That’s right, no cheesy cruise ads telling you to book your next overpriced vacation to "picturesque Dutch villages," where you’ll spend a week crammed in with 1,000 other cruise passengers who somehow all think they’re part of an exclusive club. No thanks. Instead, we’re offering you pure, unfiltered content. No sponsors, no distractions, just the kind of insightful chaos you’re here for. You’re welcome.
