About The Element
From the publisher's feed
The Element tells the true stories behind the substances that make up the world. Each episode, host Nirob takes one element, one metal, or one chemical discovery — gold, iron, oxygen, carbon, the…
periodic table, plastic, glass, perfume — and rebuilds it: the alchemists and chemists who chased it, the experiment that revealed it, the moment of discovery, and the world it made.
From the alchemists' dream of turning lead to gold to the periodic table of Mendeleev, from gunpowder to nitrogen, from salt to the chemistry of colour, The Element is about the quiet, world-shaping power of chemistry — how substances are discovered, how they react, and why the whole material world is one long chemical story. Meticulously researched, honest about what is documented and what is legend. Clean and suitable for all ages. A new story every week
