The Bird & The Bear - Session 50

“Happy Forest. F**k your Burn.” - The Dimes skip the life updates and get right into discussing Sammy’s experience at Electric Forest - Sammy has a glowing review of the festival and goes into many different details including music performances, food venders, campgrounds, security, and the venue as a whole - Some highlights from the conversation: Sammy’s favorite art installations, delicious late night jambalaya, fire breathers in the mosh pit during a Voyd set, two exceptional Chromeo performances including a house set, and the flash storm that destroyed the campgrounds on the last day

“They’re sober when they do it” - The Dimes react to a shooting at The Gorge Amphitheater during the Beyond Wonderland music festival - It’s reported that the shooter was an active service member attending the festival and this information gets the boys into a couple different conversations, Sammy thinks service members should be required to live “straight edge” lifestyles, and Daryl asks why people who are trained to kill can even get a gun in the first place - This tragedy also has the boys dissecting all of the issues with The Gorge as a venue from it’s security practices to it’s ground maintenance

“What if a pilot was like, ‘Oh you know, we’re breaking the rules. We’re making wings out of f**king noodles’” - The Dimes discuss the loss of Ocean Gate’s Titan submersible during an expedition to the wreckage of the Titanic - Daryl dives deep into some of the materials used to make the Titan submersible, specifically carbon fiber, and how it factored in to the implosion of the sub - Then the boys react to alleged audio captured by the Navy of the submersible imploding
