Very Nearly Almost

In this episode, Lindsey speaks with award-winning director and writer Rachel Fleit, who most recently directed BAMA RUSH about sorority women at the University of Alabama. In the documentary, Fleit turns the camera on herself and addresses her lifelong journey with alopecia. Lindsey and Rachel take a deeper dive into that journey, her intentions for her next project, why she was drawn to filmmaking, dating as a bald baddie lifer and more.
