    It actually happened. 80/35 is back. Featuring on-site interviews with The Envy Corps, Stars Hollow, Lily DeTaeye, Music League, Plumero, Juliano Dock, Hot Kunch, and Mr. Softheart. PR & Chase are joined by their good buddy/photographer/synth extraordinaire, Jorb, as they recap the return of the greatest music festival in the known universe. We break down all the sights, sounds, vibes, and snackies. Rad! Thanks so much to all the artists, organizers, and volunteers who made this year's festival possible. And thank YOU, listener, for being patient with Chase as he had a near mental breakdown editing this behemoth of an episode. It almost goes without saying... KEEP ON SPINNING.
