Canary Cry Radio is on the bleeding edge of reporting boots-on-the-ground from Burning Man for nearly a decade. Standing on the shoulders of researchers like Carl Teichrib and his work on the Re-Enchantment, and Transformative Events, no other Christian podcast has addressed why these events are important for the future of our culture, while evangelizing and preaching the Gospel message of Jesus Christ in the middle of the most esoteric annual event in Black Rock City. Carl is back with an much needed update on everything! Visit BurningManResearch.com to get the archive of episodes on this topic over the last 15 years! Find out how to support Basil’s trip to Burning Man 2026, where the theme is AXIS MUNDI!
