Comments
"You get the brainchild of a toasted hip-hop" might be my favorite thing ever said on this show.

2024-10-16 19:26:26 +0000 UTCCould tell James had a cold during this episode and I felt so bad!! Sad to say I listen to these guys more than my own husband 😂😂😂
A loyal turkey
2024-09-16 16:44:28 +0000 UTCHad to relisten to this because I saw that they are doing it again in April and I wanted to be reminded about how bad this is going to go 🫣

Kristin Haluch
2024-07-17 04:17:40 +0000 UTCJust listened to this again. 3rd time is the charm! How upset James gets with this complete fucking scumbag is so gratifying. I work in the event industry and this guy literally could not have done anything else wrong. He fucked up on every single thing he did and there were a ton he didn’t even get to. It’s now June 2024 and still no Fyre Fest II. Money well spent by more dipshits! And I love that they named them. Aaahahahahahahaaha!

2024-05-04 02:33:31 +0000 UTCThere is a festival site in the middle of Ohio, Legend Valley has shows constantly throughout the summer and it doesn’t have any of these issues

2024-04-09 14:29:00 +0000 UTCThat'd be an insult to dildos, at least they're useful and make people happy
Sav
2024-02-11 21:11:50 +0000 UTCWhere are people going to poop? Yep, James, that is exactly the non-glamorous activity that Billy the Conman isn't concerned about.

2023-11-24 06:05:22 +0000 UTCIt's the employees and laborers on the island who didn't get paid for the jobs done that are the real victims.

2023-11-24 05:26:10 +0000 UTCPlease be joking 🤣

Michael Donnelly
2023-10-18 04:05:42 +0000 UTCIf people get scammed again they deserve it, and have too much money on their hands
Cheyenne Gibson
2023-10-17 18:08:34 +0000 UTCWho the hell invested in this second festival if he still does millions of dollars to investors, he went to jail for lying to. Extreme morons
Lindsay Chapon
2023-10-15 17:55:53 +0000 UTCLove this. What dumb MF’ers. Thanks guys for always telling these stories.
Dena Ward
2023-10-11 23:38:42 +0000 UTC"Fucktard" was the favorite insult of the mentally challenged cart returner I befriended at walmart. To quote him "Some people are just fucking retarded". David is good people. lol
Justin Michael Baard
2023-10-05 17:47:28 +0000 UTCShocking, that's the exact age range of people obsessed with Elon in the modern day. Luckily, I was swayed by my uncle into a life of music obsession.

2023-10-05 17:07:00 +0000 UTCI volunteer as tribute! If these morons have too much money, they can shuffle it my way! I'll put it to much better use!

2023-09-29 17:31:37 +0000 UTCFuckwad is also a good thing to call people along with baglapper.
Cia Rising
2023-09-26 23:21:01 +0000 UTCI was born in '89 and I don't have a CEO/Entrepreneur obsession.....That being said, it is something many people my age do unfortunately.
Mandy Freeman
2023-09-26 21:41:10 +0000 UTCPlease call people dildos more
Rebecca Anne Weaver
2023-09-26 18:34:27 +0000 UTC“I just wanna smack his fat face”😆😆
Megan Isherwood
2023-09-26 15:13:10 +0000 UTCJust started this episode, but yes, that age group (that I'm a part of lol) is why we had Theranos, Anna Delvy, and Fyre. Too funny
Shyanne Prohl
2023-09-25 16:06:36 +0000 UTCIt's called Hype!
Shyanne Prohl
2023-09-25 16:04:52 +0000 UTCI worked with Carola Jain pre Fyre. She is very nice, smart and kind. She's given and raises a lot for funny "for the kids" Billy needs a punch just for dragging her thru this.
Maryann S
2023-09-21 15:57:18 +0000 UTCI’ve never seen this doco but I don’t feel I need to anymore, James’ hatred says enough 😂😂
Fran Hitzke
2023-09-20 23:35:03 +0000 UTCSon was born in 1996. Can confirm. From age 5 on wanted to be an inventor/scientist or “boss” and live in a mansion. It was all about the business angles being an entrepreneur etc. He’s better now 🤣
Rachel
2023-09-20 19:50:01 +0000 UTCThey're all Gatsby wannabes and even failing at that. Burn it all down, fellahs. But it all the fuck down.
Shawn McClearn
2023-09-20 13:47:43 +0000 UTCWhat was the name of the book you reference? I missed that
Ashley Longstreet
2023-09-19 19:32:31 +0000 UTCI love it when James gets so mad he stutters. He gets SO pissed lol.
Audra Wajda
2023-09-19 04:58:43 +0000 UTCFyre festival is my Super Bowl. I love talking about it. So listening to y’all’s take was awesome. I really hope billy boy gets arrested again
Liz
2023-09-18 23:05:18 +0000 UTCThey should check out Blue Ridge Rock Fest that just happened 😂
Kayla Higgins
2023-09-18 20:08:56 +0000 UTCI can’t believe there are people who are buying tickets to the second “festival”!
Tommy D
2023-09-18 10:50:37 +0000 UTCIt is astonishing that ppl would give anyone (or anything) associated with Fyre Fest a penny. Their logic is cult behavior like you guys said. Unreal.
Pat Schoolastra
2023-09-18 08:13:35 +0000 UTCGlad I booed Ja during the NFC championship game in Philly
Joe the Cynic
2023-09-18 06:17:43 +0000 UTCThis was hilarious..if you haven't seen the Netflix doc you should
Wrae Sanders

Nino Reyes
2023-09-18 01:40:46 +0000 UTCAm I the only one who has never heard of these people? This is not a thing I knew existed.
Shawna Fisher
2023-09-18 01:15:31 +0000 UTCA short break in all your records? Good Lord, next thing we know ya'll will be expecting us to believe you're human!
Naomi Albright
2023-09-18 01:14:45 +0000 UTCJames sounding stuffy! Hope he's not sick

Alex Lecy
2023-09-18 00:07:32 +0000 UTCIn the sun all day.No water. TONS of tequila. No bathroom. What could go wrong?
Rebekah Norwood
2023-09-17 23:53:32 +0000 UTCY'all mentioned the Rajneeshee in the Starke, FL episode and it occurred to me that could make an entertaining bonus episode. Wild story.
Lizzy Goldstein
2023-09-17 21:37:33 +0000 UTCLooks like you're going to have to do an episode about the blue ridge mountain music festival it was like fyre festival but bands actually played however they cancelled it after the second day due to "weather"
Andrew Betts
2023-09-17 20:01:31 +0000 UTCLmao, I forgot about sucking dick for water
Dr Phil Goode 👹🌲🔥
2023-09-17 19:13:45 +0000 UTCToo much confidence all around. I didn't keep up w it when it happened, but I caught the docs later. When they said 5 to 6 months I laughed so hard. I saw the prep, them partying on the boat and was baffled, no electricity, no bathrooms, no food, water. I can't believe ppl are stupid enough to sell out for part 2. Great episode guys
Dr Phil Goode 👹🌲🔥
2023-09-17 19:07:28 +0000 UTCThere are few things in life that bring me as much joy as James at peak pissed off rant levels! Awesome episode!!!
Abby
2023-09-17 18:33:21 +0000 UTC“Are you TRYING?!” is my new favorite accusation.
Sandy
2023-09-17 18:13:14 +0000 UTCI don’t understand why people are falling for it a second time! That’s when you know you have too much money. Might as well just burn some in a bonfire. Might be more satisfying lol

2023-09-17 03:02:23 +0000 UTCMy hubby and his brother went to Wacken this year. Wow!! I was so impressed by how well run that Metal festival was (even with unexpected rain and mud). Not only did I feel reassured that they were safe and having fun, but I was able to watch some of the shows online while he was there, so he didn't feel so far away.
Navarra Good
2023-09-17 02:50:02 +0000 UTClove y'all
Jeremy James
2023-09-17 02:27:29 +0000 UTCI had the honor of selling a quarter of herb to Ja Rule at the hotel I work at a few years back. He asked if I "had a plug for some spinach." Dude was sooo short in person. He was the guest at a local strip club. He did 2 songs then left, which led to the whole crowd booing and trying to fight him. Good guy!
