Stoned Alchemy - Episode 31 - The Three Amigos

Join Mike & Russ on a very sophomoric and somewhat interesting chat with our dear longtime friend and professional make-up artist, Craig. Craig has been a professional make-up artist for decades, worked with hundreds of celebrities on thousands of film shoots, including TV shows such as Saturday Night Live and Walking Dead. Craig is a true artistic master, although you wouldn't know that from this rapidly degrading, digressing, and deranged conversation. But please partake with Mike, Russ, and Craig - The Three Amigos, on a journey through film history, camping, alcohol, cigars, drugs, and the African prison system. All from the delightful confines of Mike's rooftop in NYC. Please note: This discussion is purely for adults; you crazy kids go back to bed! Oh, and due to the fine and gentle graces of NYC, the audio is fairly poor in spots, so good luck with that!

Stoned Alchemy - Episode 30 - "Beached" and ChatGPT Part 2

Join Mike and his AI on a deserted tropical island somewhere in the Pacific for the tale "Beached", then listen in on Part 2 of a very stimulating conversation about Artificial Intelligence and Chat GPT. Mike and Russ attempt to push ChatGPT to the brink by asking what may arguably be the most intellectually defunct line of queries ever devised by humanity.  Then we teach ChatGPT how to lie, tell Dad jokes (not that it needs any help), and generally harass the artificial intelligent giant until it smokes. Please email us your fan mail and money to stonedalchemy@yahoo.com or we'll send ChatGPT after you.

Stoned Alchemy - Episode 29 - "Julie" and ChatGPT Part 1

Please Join Mike and Russ for a stimulating conversation on Artificial Intelligence  and ChatGPT. This episode begins with Russ' tale "Julie" -  If you think Alexa or Siri is bad, you ain't seen nothing yet... We then continue with an in depth discussion on AI and the new kid on the block, ChatGPT. What will the future hold? How much control will these super brains have over our lives? And what will become of society? Will we be able to tune out, turn off, and drop out? Science Fiction or humanity's future reality?  We don't know, and we have no answers you - but only offer food for thought - for human brains only, please. Please email us: stonedalchemy@yahoo.com

Stoned Alchemy - Episode 28 - Cults

Tired of thinking for yourself?  Let Mike and Russ tell you exactly what to think, and we'll even tell you what to say and when to say it!  Just kidding...  Or are we? Join Mike & Russ on a very special discussion on the subject of Cults. Mike performs his advert for "Cult In A Box",  and later on,  Russ has a very special message from Guiglio Garconi in "Director" Email us at Stonedalchemy@yahoo.com

Stoned Alchemy - Episode 27 - Screenplays on the Roof

Russ is back from Arizona for a visit and Mike is back from a Cali vacay. So why not meet on the rooftop studio for a chat about screenplays and other wacky remembrances?  Join Mike & Russ on this very special  discussion-only episode filled with tales of brilliant yet poorly conducted schemes involving a popular condiment, chasing down Oliver Stone in Santa Monica, Steven Seagal's attorney and hundreds of millions of dollars, and the delightful ambience of Mike's rooftop in NYC.
