Default Intersting Problem

i have 01 fwd. 40% humidity around 85 degrees in san diego, and i was driving mid day with Air Conditioning full blast at 69 degrees. I came to a stop light after about 5 min on freeway and my ac starts to get warm and the air starts to stink. Then i parked, and came back after 30 min and started with ac full blast again and it stalls within seconds. Car runs fine when ac isnt blasted. Ima noob so can someone explain this.
