Blu Alchemist Podcast

On this episode of the Blue Alchemist podcast, Siquoyia Blue dives into Jordan Peele’s Out There Screaming, an anthology of Black horror stories that fuse folklore, history, and speculative dread. Featured tales explore racist violence, ancestral magic, domestic monsters, restless spirits, and a digital paradise that becomes a prison.
Through close readings of standout stories, the episode argues that horror can reveal harsh truths and resilience, imagining the collection as a potential Black Mirror–style series and asking listeners to consider where they would rather face danger: on the bus or in the dark outside.

This episode explores the science behind gene-driven mosquitoes, the ethical and historical reasons for resistance, and what the decision means for sovereignty, public health, and future malaria solutions in Africa.

Inspired by the Tubi series "Demascus", this episode unpacks why chasing ‘fool’s gold’—other people’s lives, careers, or approval—only leads us further from happiness. With a reminder from J. Cole’s timeless lyric, ‘No such thing as a life that’s better than yours,’ we’ll explore how to value the life you have, stop comparing timelines, and start recognizing the real treasure right in front of you.

In this raw, hilarious, and deeply human conversation, we sit down with Amanda Graham, author of "Good Stuff to Read When You’re About to Lose Your Shit". From surviving a cult, navigating life with autism and ADHD, and raising a child as a single mum in the middle of nowhere, to facing grief, career losses, and some downright bizarre life curveballs — Amanda has turned pain into power and comedy gold.
We unpack her new book’s unfiltered wisdom on grief, money, assholes, and life’s absurdities, exploring how humor, insight, and unconventional “cheat codes” can carry us through the messiest seasons. Along the way, Amanda shares behind-the-scenes stories of breaking into comedy in her 40s, landing deals with Olivia Colman, and working alongside Hollywood and Disney legends — all while staying unapologetically herself.
If you’ve ever felt like life is a dumpster fire and you’re just trying not to melt, this episode is your laugh-out-loud survival kit.
