They discuss their journey, detailing the years of hard work that went into developing the platform and the unique challenges they faced, including skepticism from potential investors who are often cautious about the success of faith-based media. The duo emphasizes that the key to their success lies not just in the content but in building a community of engaged viewers who are passionate about the narratives they want to support. As the discussion progresses, the trio touches on broader themes of masculinity, storytelling, and the cultural implications of their work. They argue that the current landscape of Christian entertainment often mirrors a feminized narrative, sidelining authentic male experiences and stories. By positioning Lore TV as a platform where creators can tell the stories they believe in without compromise, they aim to shift the paradigm of Christian media away from the formulaic and predictable. Takeaways: The new streaming platform Lore TV allows subscribers to actively fund shows they want to see. Creators on Lore TV are not bound by corporate interests, allowing for more authentic storytelling. Investors should focus on supporting unique, independent content rather than traditional Christian media.
