Thanks everyone! I had actually deleted this thread within minutes of posting it because I read a few more credentials, but it seems the delete didn’t take. I’m glad it didn’t because the answers on here were very educational! I can’t get my $7 back but did cancel the subscription. Otoh, I don’t even regret my subscription because this guy is so interesting so I got an intro to him too. The “alchemist” thing said “charlatan” to me as well, but I don’t think he is one. I’d love to see a convo with him and you @asteckley about this issue!Thanks again!
Edit to add: I noticed the “detracted” too and assumed it was a miswording of “extracted” but didn’t change it in paraphrase in case it was some niche technical term I was unaware of.
