The What Podcast is a weekly show by two veterans of the entertainment media universe with a passion for live music and music festivals. They came together over a love of Bonnaroo and found out pretty quickly that they are not alone. In fact, since launching in 2018, they found kindred spirits all over the world who also love the vibe found only at music festivals. Each week they share their own stories and opinions, but they also dig deeper and talk to the musicians and industry insiders who make the magic happen. The What Podcast is part of the Consequence Podcast Network.

Staying Sober and Finding Support at Bonnaroo
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.

Customer Reviews
My fav music podcast
This shows is a couple of goofy guys who love Bonnaroo, and I adore it. It’s so fun hearing their perspective and stories and comparing them to my own.
As someone who has been attending since 2017 and even got engaged on the farm, this show is a can’t miss for me every week.

My last name is Brown
Slowly becoming unlistenable.
I’ve enjoyed this podcast for years, but every episode these days has turned into an origin story recap about the podcast, and reminiscing about how and why it started. That might work as a refresher every so often for new listeners, but every single episode it’s getting a little grating.
