“We’re supposed to have so much fun…” — David Lynch
I’m your host, The Death Alchemist. I have been publicly exploring the intersection between life, death, film and artistry for 5+ years (and have been dreaming about this radio show for almost the same time) I am an oracle and guide falling in love with the unknown, chatting about the feral nature of grief, dreaming with the dead, and connecting to all of you.

Episode 05: Jimmy Maldonado and Our Heart’s Intelligence
In our first episode of 2026, I am joined by Jimmy Maldonado who is a an Indigenous ceremonial piercer at Wolf and Goat Piercing in Denver, CO. He is also the sole survivor of a mass shooting. We get into a lot of topics during our hour chat, but ultimately, this episode is a testament to how art, ancestry, community, culture, movement, grief, and using our gifts/medicine can help us through the most unimaginable circumstances. It was really fun, and also a deep honor to connect with such a force in this world, and I can’t wait for you to imbibe every bit of wisdom that he shared with me during our time together.
