POD 137: Two years in an underground MDMA lab, a conversation with MethylMan

In this episode I sit down with a self-taught legend of underground MDMA synthesis and former Hive member named MethylMan. We discuss Wacker oxidation, reductive amination, aluminum amalgamation and the joys and dangers of underground chemistry.
