  • Great BtS info

    I love learning the behind the scenes details and backstories of how cultural phenomena are made and evolve, and this podcast does an excellent job of giving history and context of burning man as an event and a cultural influence, via the perspective and stories of the individuals who make it what it is. Andie is a great interviewer, the audio is good (as in, misophonia safe), and the guests are smart and interesting. Bravi!

  • Everything you wanted to know…and more!

    A delightful, informative, wondrous and sometimes wacky look at the people that make Burning Man happen in the world. Hosts Stuart, Andie, Kbot and Vav keep the interviews moving along while bringing their own storied histories into play. A must listen to anyone who’s been, who wants to go or is just curious about what that Burning Man thing is.
