Episode 60: Survivor Stories: Matt L

Finally after almost a whole year we are back with another survivor story! This week’s survivor is Matt L.. Matt had a killer time at Woodstock 99 and hit many of the major checklist moments including Limp Bizkit, looting, the rave, and escaping with his sanity in tact. This is a perfect story to get us back into Woodstock 99 mode. 

Episode 55: Survivor Stories: Primo Kimo

This week’s survivor is Primo Kimo, Primo and his pals spent that fateful weekend in the lap of luxury compared to our other survivors. They arrived in an RV stocked with supplies and their very own toilet. They funded their trip with the sale of bootleg shirts and watched the place burn drive-in style. There was also a problem with their septic tank.

Episode 52: Survivor Stories: Brooke

We change things up; Parks interviews a survivor for the first time. Brooke traveled all the way from Idaho to get to Woodstock 99. She had some great times and made some new friends, but the tone of her trip quickly changed from celebratory to one of caution. Brooke’s story is a first for PC99; she details some harrowing moments with some aggressive festival goers. She also happened to witness some pivotal moments in the chaos of the festival. This story is an essential listen.   

Culture Dumps Episode 8: Disco Demolition

The Disco Demolition has gone down as one of the most negative reactions to a seemingly innocent cultural movement. Filled with racial and societal implications, the Disco Demolition is as sad as it is ridiculous. Join us as we revisit the night when thousands of rowdy baseball fans gathered to blow up a giant crate of disco records. 

Episode 40: Rome is Burning: The Riots part 2

In their final report from the grounds of Woodstock 99, Parks and Ryan uncover one of the most horrifying incidents of the entire weekend as well as shed some light on what happened after everyone was booted from the festival grounds. While this episode in many ways could be considered our heaviest, there is also a very pleasant surprise at the end worth sitting through all of the arrest reports and evil-doers you will learn about. Also, it is our 40th episode, certainly a milestone.

Episode 39: Rome is Burning: The Riots part 1

We have reached the inevitable climax of Woodstock 99. This episode was so juicy we had to split it in two. We have some major bombs to drop on you, a third promoter, a secret stage, hard numbers on some of the financial losses, and lazer tag! NOTE: We delayed the release of this episode in order to give more attention to the civil rights crisis our country is facing. We felt it would be best to not share an episode about riots while there was actual riots happening outside on the streets of our cities for greater reasons than bottled water prices. Enjoy.
