Total Destruction in Cargo Shorts
The world’s biggest metal band (and headliners of both Woodstock 94 and 99) is hardly a Culture Dump, but their 2002 documentary “Some Kind of Monster” and the album that followed “St. Anger” are definitely Culture Dumps. A high paid therapist, aging rock stars, a massive societal shift in how music is consumed, what could go wrong???

It’s getting to be that time to move on. After over two years of Podcast 99, we have nearly exhausted the subject. We will always keep this door open for when we unearth a new Woodstock 99 gem. Until then we have started our new podcast, Culture Dumps. As a promotion, we are going to play the first few Culture Dumps episodes on the PC99 channel. If you like what you are hearing, then please subscribe to our new channel at Culture Dumps. Now please enjoy our take on the questionably successful 80s phenomenon known as Hands Across America.

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.

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.
