Bonnaroo is famous for being a place where people can explore not only music, but themselves. That's why it is so important to foster safe environments for people of all walks of life. This week on The What Podcast, guests Tara Viland, Kai Viland, and Cassie Wanamaker join Barry and Bryan to continue last episode’s conversation about staying sober on The Farm. Listen to the episode wherever you get your podcasts.

The crew chats about how Bonnaroo is a wonderful place for meeting new people and exploring new worlds, but how it can also be a tough place for people trying to lead a sober life. With the right support and a good mindset, however, it can lead to just as rewarding of an experience.

This week on The What Podcast, hosts Barry, Lord Taco, and Bryan offer their quick takes and expert opinions on the just-released Bonnaroo 2024 schedule.

Every year, Barry, Lord Taco, Bryan, and thousands of Roovians patiently await the Bonnaroo schedule, hoping for the best and expecting the worst when it comes to set conflicts. Finally, the Bonnaroo 2024 schedule is here, and there’s lots to talk about! Will it all go out the window when you finally get to the Farm? Probably, but it sure is fun to map out your dream path through the festival!

That's not all the crew has in store for listeners this week, however! They also talk with Patrick Whelan, co-founder of Soberoo, a non-profit organization he informally started at the first Bonnaroo in 2002. Soberoo is a project that ensures anyone looking to remain sober throughout the duration of the festival still has fun, safe places on the farm. The group now shares its mission at dozens of festivals around the country. Learn more here.

Just a few weeks ago, The What Podcast crew started to take a look electronic dance music's relationship with Bonnaroo. This week, that journey continues, as Barry, Bryan, and Lord Taco chat with a panel of fans who seek to help guide them through the uncharted EDM waters (What is 'Electro-Soul'?).

Now familiar with the genre's history in regards to Bonnaroo, as well as having examined the evolution of The Other stage and Where in the Woods, the gang now turns to a carefully selected group of experts: Tyrone Basket of The Daily Frequency, Kyle Gonzalez, Christian Pina, and Matthew Murphy. The guests answer Barry and Bryan's questions, helping them awaken the rave-kids that perhaps have been within them all along.

Building on what we learned from Daniel a few weeks ago and his Spotify EDM playlists (bonnaroo bpm, where in the woods swirl, where in the woods bass, and philos records takeover), the panel helps us break down the artists on the lineup and give us an idea of what to expect (Beware of SVDDEN DEATH!).

Stay tuned to The What Podcast to hear when we announce the winner of our ticket giveaway contest, too!

This week on The What Podcast, Television's Richard Lloyd joins the crew to dive into the band’s seminal release, Marquee Moon. Listen to the art-punk legend’s insights here, or watch via YouTube.

Lloyd tells stories of writing and recording Marquee Moon, including why drummer Billy Ficca appears orange on the cover art. "Billy liked health food, but he ate too many carrots," he remembers with a chuckle. "We were telling him, 'Stop! You’re turning orange!' And he kept eating them."

Before the gang sits down with Lloyd, however, there’s some very important Bonnaroo news to break down: the lineup of Outeroo/Where in the Woods. The gang dissects the announcement, finding time to sneak in some Bonnaroulette phone calls along the way with recommendations like The Heavy Heavy, Milky Chance, and Japanese House.
