This week, Brylan dives into the mysterious craft of film scoring with multi-award winning composer Lindsay Young, who elevates films with her unique blend of hard hitting yet emotional scores. They discuss her approach to finding the perfect sounds for a filmmaker's visuals, her favorite scores that inspire her, and even how Jack Black inadvertently helped her find her way to the art form. Also, Brylan puts Lindsay's ear for mood to the test with a game of "Settle The Score".

Aside from being a decorated composer, Lindsay is also a self-produced singer/songwriter who creates modern, jazz-inspired tunes under the name "Lindsay Ruth". The pair discuss how her personal writing different from her approach to film scoring, her most recent release "Hot Summer", and her plans for new original music in the future.
