The Bonnaroo 2025 lineup has been out for a week! How’s everyone feeling about it now? Bryan, Barry, and Lord Taco share their updated thoughts and compare it to the ill-fated 2020 lineup, which has become almost mythical in the years since.

While we’re saving a deep dive into the lineup for later, this week we catch up after the holiday break. Russ shares highlights from his latest camping trip, Barry dives into his passion for Notre Dame football, and Bryan buys Pearl Jam tickets again. We also chat about Bonnaroo's new Infinity Stage and what it could mean for the festival, based on a recent Consequence interview with Brad Parker.

Plus, hear about our ticket giveaway contest, featuring fan-submitted videos, voicemails, and even a fax! Enter this week’s question for a chance to win two Bonnaroo 2025 tickets and a camping pass. Visit thewhat.co/win for details. Don’t miss this blend of Bonnaroo insights, holiday stories, and listener creativity!
