In this very special 150th episode, Don interviews Fyre Festival survivor and local Raleigh native Seth Crossno about his insane experience there, what the music component of the festival was supposed to be, and what it’s like being caught in the crossfire of the Hulu/Netflix streaming wars.

Before and after the interview, Don drops some special Caribbean island themed jams in honor of the Fyre Festival.

If you want to jump ahead to the interview, it starts at the 27:44 mark.
