The Resistance
Matt Conner
There's a force at work that keeps you from being you. We feel it, too. It's the reason we avoid making the call, the reason we put off the diet. It's why we've done nothing about that entrepreneurial idea, that creative endeavor, that new relationship. In his book The War of Art, Stephen Pressfield defines this universal force as Resistance. Welcome to The Resistance, a new podcast featuring honest interviews with creative persons about this force and the forms it takes.

Introducing The Resistance
"Most of us have two lives. The life we live and the unlived life within us. Between the two stands Resistance." -Steven Pressfield, The War of Art Over 2,000 interviews in nearly 20 years. That's Matt Conner's journey thus far as a journalist in pursuit of meaningful stories from artists of all kinds—musicians, directors, authors, actors, and more. Most of his interviews have centered on a single idea, a single struggle. Everyone feels it—the distance and tension between our present situation and our future goals. That counteractive force—the fear, the apathy, the lack of resources—that's the Resistance. Welcome to a new seasonal podcast featuring honest conversations with artists discussing their own struggles. The hope is that we'll all find a way forward—together.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
