🎙 Episode 2 — The Medium is the Message w/ Lindsey Reynolds
“That man had nothing to lose. He had no other compulsion in his life but to create art.”
— Lindsey Reynolds (on Basquiat)
This episode opens with a reminder of what’s at stake when you’re called to make art—and the tension between creative risk and cultural comfort never lets up from there.
Filmmaker and political strategist Lindsey Reynolds joins Christian for a wide-ranging conversation about faith, creative expression, propaganda, and personal integrity. Raised in a deeply religious household, Lindsey’s first audience was a church congregation. Today, her work lives at the crossroads of storytelling and advocacy, and she’s not afraid to speak plainly about what that demands.
Together, they explore:
- Childhoods shaped by Southern faith traditions
- Navigating identity through music, dance, and film
- The fine line between storytelling and manipulation
- Why courage is a non-negotiable for artists
- Basquiat, discomfort, and the compulsion to create
Also featuring a mid-roll message from Cedar Ranch Productions and a closing quote that might just make you rethink your creative process.
