On this episode, I explore some of the big ideas and political discussions I heard at SXSW 2019. While this is not an inherently political show, political outlooks inform the films, music, and art we take in and strive to create, whether directly or indirectly. SXSW isn't just a prominent film and music festival. It's also where presidential hopefuls and thought leaders gather to share their perspectives on the world, and so the festival can serve as a bellwether for where the culture is heading. This episode is a little different than the typical coverage I do, but it does allow for a more in-depth discussion on some of the ideas behind the films and music at the festival. It also gave me an opportunity to share some things on my heart. I hope some of you will find it helpful. # Related Episode The first episode I did on SXSW 2019 highlights some of the memorable films, music, and experiences that stuck out for me. # Sponsor for this Episode nsavides productions – I make videos and tell stories.
