  • Summary

  • In this laugh-out-loud podcast episode, listeners are whisked away on a whimsical adventure through the vibrant world of music festivals and society's most amusing misunderstandings. From the legendary mud-filled Woodstock escapades to the gloriously chaotic disaster known as the Fyre Festival, the hosts hilariously dissect the cultural significance and share side-splitting tales tied to these infamous events. They dive into the peculiar customs of the Chung Chow Bun Festival in Hong Kong, where people apparently compete to see who can pile up the most buns—because who wouldn't want to be crowned the Bun King? They also explore the absurdity of celebrity conspiracy theories, poking fun at the idea that Travis Scott and Taylor Swift might actually be lizard people from outer space. The episode doesn't shy away from poking fun at the excessive use of satanic imagery in music, examining its shock factor and unraveling society's bizarre misconceptions about Satanism. Spoiler alert: The Satanic Temple is actually more about kindness and less about, well, goat sacrifices. Through a blend of humor, music history, and mind-bending discussions, this episode offers a light-hearted yet hilariously insightful look at pop culture and the quirkiest nooks of societal beliefs.Please note that Dwayne Perkins wasn’t able to join us and we asked guest Jonesy to fill in for the month.ABOUT OUR GUEST HOST Jonesy is a standup comedian and actor and has been on Gotham and Drunk History.
