Ep 430: How to Be a Libertarian Creative, with Finlay Beach

This episode of the Libertarian Christian Podcast welcomes Finlay Beach. Beach is the author of the Managed Paranoia series, a near-future sci-fi thriller series that weaves libertarian ideals and Christian values into a gripping narrative of a dystopian world shaped by an overreaching post-pandemic government. Beach shares how he balances his day job with his passion for fiction writing, emphasizing character-driven storytelling over preachy ideology. The conversation explores the power of fiction to subtly convey complex ideas, the danger of losing the story to a political agenda, and how libertarian creatives can effectively use their gifts–even if it means not quitting their day jobs. This episode is a must-listen for creatives seeking to blend conviction with compelling storytelling.
