In an interview with James Underdown, Beyerstein talks about her life growing up in the skeptical movement. ""I was always involved with my Dad in skeptical meetings... "It's sorta funny, the skeptic movement is now finally old enough, it's like Scientology, we have second gen." She recounts how, "We would have family newsletter-stuffing nights (for the BC Skeptics)." Instead of hiring babysitters, her father would take Lindsay to his media interviews. "Does Satanic music cause suicide, out-of-body experiences... it was always something new and different."[11]
She's been on the Skeptic's Toolbox faculty from 2008 through 2015.
