Top Bonnaroo 2025 Acts You Can't Miss

It's time to dive into the Bonnaroo 2025 lineup, and who better to guide us than our old buddy Brad Steiner? Longtime fans of the show will remember Brad as co-host of the show, who founded The What Podcast back in 2018 with Barry. We catch up with Brad and get an idea of what his life is like in New York City after leaving the show. From Action Bronson to Vampire Weekend, Brad breaks down the lineup day by day to deliver his picks, plus we talk about the recently-announced Arcade Fire late night set, "Santa Pirata". You won't want to miss these picks!

Rounding out the coverage of recent Bonnaroo news, we talk about the after hours lineup that just came out and we try to figure out if Bryan can stay up for all of it. Our contest is still underway, so listen and find out how you could win a pair of Bonnaroo 2025 tickets with a camping pass, or some other great prizes too! Visit https://thewhat.co/win for details and don't delay, a winner will be announced soon.

Listen to Brad make his recommendations here, or watch the episode on YouTube. As always, subscribe to The What Podcast for the latest festival news and it would really help us out to leave a rating and review.
