We've got a double sized episode for you this week!  From WellRED and Comedy Central, stand up comedian and Roo veteran Drew Morgan is on with us this week and has a ton of fun stories to share.  Also many of our previous TOTEM scholarship recipients are on to help next year's rookies and offer advice for anyone applying for 2026.  And as you may have guessed, we've got a good bit to say about Tame Impala's DEADBEAT.

Daniel just returned from Cave Fest at The Caverns, which brings us to talking a lot about some of our other local venues.  Could The Caverns eventually host a larger festival?  Is the sound finally better at The Mars?  Did Evan Bonnaroo meet Future Evan at St. Stephens?  Is Sharla going to clog on the show?  We answer these questions and much more, and also talk about the opening of our TOTEM scholarship for the upcoming year!

We had a lot of friends at both Shaky Knees and Riot Fest in recent weeks, and we've got a big crew on to report back from them!  Sharla and Daniel are also on the back porch to talk about some of our other favorite city fests, and also a ton of cats make cameos at the end.

Sharla and Daniel are taking a chill episode with a drink in the backyard this week while everyone else is gone to Riot Fest and Shaky Knees!  We're talking about the Saxsquatch and Blink 182 shows in Huntsville, how we feel about 2025 now that we're three months removed, look ahead to what 2026 is going to look like, and have a few weekly picks as well!

Sharla has come up with the most insane game to play inside the bus this week, we're playing the "Hear Me Out Cake" game by picking the most outside the box acts we can think of to play Bonnaroo 2026.  We've also got Andrew back on this week to talk about what goes into keeping track of everything on the /r/Bonnaroo confirmation thread, as well as take a look at who is very possibly on the lineup next year.

We're all outside for the last big weekend of the Summer!  Sharla and Daniel hang out in front of the bus to talk about Tipper in Huntsville and follow up on Burning Man.  Also, Daniel takes the trip up to a secret location in Tennessee to visit with Lord Taco from the What Podcast and former Bonnaroovian of the Year Lindsey to talk about The Other Farm and what we're looking forward to at Roo in 2026.
