The Fyre Festival brand has gone up for sale - a matter of weeks after the organisers postponed Fyre Festival 2 with no new date set. Billy McFarland, the former organiser who served six years in prison after the 2017 event, claimed giving control of the festival to a new group would help build on the global entertainment brand. Flicks.co.nz editor Steve Newall wonders if anyone will pay for the event. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This week on Grumpy Old Geeks, Fyre Festival rises from the ashes yet again—but not as a festival, because even Billy McFarland finally figured out he's better at selling pipe dreams than tents. Meanwhile, Amazon and Microsoft are tapping the brakes on their AI data center dreams, Google's AI keeps confidently explaining made-up nonsense like it's gospel, and Kevin Roose once again tries to convince us to have empathy for the glorified autocomplete machines. (Spoiler: We won't.) Also, OpenAI wants to buy Chrome even though they can barely afford their own lunch tabs, Perplexity says the quiet part loud about stalking your browser habits, and Meta lays off more VR developers while pretending they care about human rights.In the “it's all stupid, but at least it's entertaining” department: Uber gets sued for making it harder to cancel than joining Scientology, Adam Neumann dupes investors again, sperm racing is now a real thing (and yes, there's crypto involved), and Bluesky caves to the almighty blue checkmark. Plus, Affinity Suite reminds us you don't have to sell a kidney to escape Adobe, The Wheel of Time gets an open-world game that'll probably drop after the heat death of the universe, and Wednesday Season 2 is on the way, because Netflix refuses to let its only hits rest.Stick around for The Dark Side with Dave where we grumble about Andor Season 2, lament bad writing decisions, geek out over old-school arcade games, and learn that memory colors are apparently a thing. Oh, and if you're feeling fancy, go ahead and thank ChatGPT for wasting millions in server bills—because if Sam Altman's crying about manners costing money, we're grabbing the popcorn.Sponsors:Insta360 - The first 30 people who use code “gog” at store.insta360.com get a free 45” invisible selfie stick worth $25!DeleteMe - Head over to JoinDeleteMe.com/GOG and use the code "GOG" for 20% off.Private Internet Access - Go to GOG.Show/vpn and sign up today.

Jon Hamm might get “canceled”, Pope Francis lies in state, new Shannon Sharpe tapes, Karen Read trail, a new Bonerline, Trump baby bonus, and selfish Justin Bieber. It's the last show of the week due to Drew's oral issues. Pope Francis lies in state and the lines to see him are long. “Francis, out!” Jimmy Fallon makes the death about HIM. A baseball autographed by Francis is up for auction. Randy Kaplan needs a life and less baseballs. The Shannon Sharpe controversy is not going away as even more taped conversations have been released. It may affect his massive podcasting deal. Kanye West can do whatever he wants whenever he wants to whomever he wants. Bill Maher is getting pushback for having dinner with Donald Trump. Just a reminder that Shaq pooped his pants on TV. A video has emerged of Tyreek Hill and his baby on a balcony. Talk Tuah has tanked. RIP Roy Thomas Baker. He produced many great songs. Drew did a Steve Perry deep dive and loved what he found. It's Karen Read 2nd Trial Day! He supporters showed up and jeered the witnesses. Timothy McVeigh McNoodle was a total loser. Jason Carr is still rolling along. Call or text 209-66-Boner to communicate with the show. You don't need a video to click the Amazon link on our webpage. Jon Hamm was a bully and needs to be canceled. Justin Bieber is stuck in a cult, but is also really selfish. Billy McFarland is trying to cash out of the Fyre Festival. Dave Portnoy has a new young girlfriend who does his swimming for him. Hey Justin Blackmon… why you look different? Manhole-dodging grandma is the coolest. Katy Perry is rightfully getting pounded for her space flight. The 60 Minutes producer has moved on. There may be a $5,000 Trump baby bonus. The NFL Draft is tomorrow! RIP child-star Sophie Nyweide. RIP Zug Island Rick.

Things got weirdly cosmic this week—Joyhdae's ex (allegedly Michael B. Jordan) is back spinning the block in grills she bought, while Ryan's having an existential crisis about Legos and Virgo logic. And that's just the intro.We break down the very serious all-women celebrity space flight that somehow accomplished nothing but soft glam, awkward press quotes, and Auntie Gayle's wig fighting for its life on reentry. Meanwhile, Fyre Festival is officially cancelled indefinitely—again—and honestly, we don't know who needs more help: Billy McFarland or the people still buying those tickets.Coachella gave us everything we didn't know we needed: T-Pain pirouetting in perfect formation, Meg thee Stallion commanding the desert like she owns the whole state, and Missy Elliott transforming from a car like it's 2002. Festival season officially belongs to Black women.But then reality crashes back in: a deeply disturbing subway scandal involving a corpse (yes, a corpse) raises major questions about safety, sanity, and why necrophilia is somehow part of this week's news cycle. Add in Diddy trying to rebrand his legal team like it's a diversity initiative, and we're officially cooked.Thankfully, there's a flicker of beauty in the madness—the upcoming Met Gala's “Vogue Dandyism” theme is putting Black excellence and tailoring on the pedestal it deserves. At least the fashion's still giving.It's Virgo chaos, subway scandal, billionaires doing too much, and a little too much clarity about humanity being the true bad place.#VirgoSeasonPodcast ----We want to hear from you:Would you go to space with Katy Perry for representation?   Sound off in the comments!  LIKE, SUBSCRIBE & JOIN THE VIRGO SEASON COMMUNITY!Subscribe for more pop culture insights, celebrity news, and hilarious takes!Hit the bell to never miss an episode!Share this episode with a friend who loves juicy trending topics. CONNECT WITH US:Instagram: @VirgoSeasonShowFacebook: Virgo Season PodcastWebsite: VirgoSeasonShow.com STREAM US EVERYWHERE:Available on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, YouTube, and more!----00:00 Intro00:05 Joyhdae's Being Delusional Again...02:47 PSA05:12 G2009:43 Roman Reigns10:09 What's The Word?17:23 Women In Space26:54 Why Are We Like This?29:03 "Man" + Corpse34:10 Messy Criminal "Mother"36:51 Diddy Is Looking For A Woman43:45 Fyre's Flame Extinguished47:42 Coachella 202549:12 Coachella 2025: T-Pain51:43 Coachella 2025: Missy55:38 Coachella 2025: Megan Thee Stallion01:01:20 Vogue: Super Fine01:06:51 Dad vs Auntie Jokes01:09:52 Find Us On All The Things!01:11:30 One More For The Road...01:12:08 Outro

Le 12 décembre 2016, une vidéo fait l'effet d'une bombe sur les réseaux sociaux : un festival de luxe inédit, organisé sur une île paradisiaque des Bahamas, avec jets privés, villas somptueuses, stars et mannequins. Derrière cette promesse : Billy McFarland et le rappeur Ja Rule. Le Fyre Festival se vend comme une expérience hors normes, attirant la jeunesse dorée et les influenceurs du monde entier. Mais à mesure que la date approche, la réalité s'effondre : infrastructures inexistantes, tentes détrempées, artistes absents, et chaos logistique total. Ce qui devait être l'événement de l'année devient un désastre viral mondial. L'affaire éclate, McFarland est poursuivi pour fraude massive. Condamné à 6 ans de prison, il récidive même pendant sa détention. Pire encore : il annonce un Fyre Festival 2 en 2024. Une histoire vraie, hallucinante, entre escroquerie, ego et illusions modernes.

It's what we do.We're kicking things off with OpenAI's latest update—ChatGPT's new Memory feature—and naturally, I gave it a go. I asked it to describe me based on everything I've ever typed into this little AI box of dreams, and what it spit back was…uncomfortably accurate. I'm talkin' “ax-throwing, satire-slinging, DJ-by-night WordPress wizard” levels of accurate. We turned that bio into an epic cinematic intro, complete with mystery music and unnecessary drama. You're welcome.Then, things get spiritual (and mildly inappropriate) when I introduce the AI-Jesus cinematic universe.

Following the end of his prison sentence, McFarland has expressed interest in organising a follow up - but he's had difficulty securing a location. Steve Newall from Flicks.co.nz says representatives from Mexico's Playa del Carmen have confirmed the event will not be hosted there - causing more confusion about the event's future.

Want to hang out with supermodels on the beach? That's the dream that Billy McFarland sold in 2017 when he advertised Fyre Festival, an outdoor music concert in the Bahamas. Attendees were promised beautiful beaches, live music, comfy villas, gourmet meals, and supermodels around every corner. Instead, they got a gravel parking lot, soggy tents, cheese sandwiches, and no music. And no supermodels, either.What went wrong with Fyre Festival?

Trump's Transgender Mice & My Performance at Fyre Festival 2 | What Are We Doing Podcast Episode 180

What Are We Doing!?

Ladies and gentlemen, episode 180 of the What Are We Doing podcast is here, and buckle up, because this one's a rollercoaster of absolute nonsense and sheer brilliance. We kicked things off by resurrecting a boy band that only 12 people remember—shoutout to Five—before diving into my guest appearance on the 280+ Podcast. Listen, Los needed a guest. The man was desperate. I threw him a lifeline, and we went DEEP. We tackled Trump, Elon, and how they're basically tag-teaming America into oblivion, while also touching on the disasterpiece that is Love Is Blind Season 8. Oh, and I may or may not have set the wheels in motion for Joe Exotic to appear on 280+—you're welcome, internet.Then, we had to address the greatest stand-up comic of our time: Donald J. Trump. The man took to the podium for what felt like 17 hours to rant about transgender mice. That's right. According to Elon and Trump, we're out here spending millions to gender-swap rodents. Spoiler alert: They meant transgenic mice. You know, the ones that help cure cancer? Yeah. Turns out, nobody in Trump's camp owns a dictionary. I even had to call Jessica, my AI assistant, to clear up the mess. She confirmed—mice are not out here getting top surgery. Science is wild, but not that wild. What are we doing?And because this episode wasn't unhinged enough, we had to talk about Steve Carell single-handedly funding prom tickets for high schoolers. Prom is a scam, kids. Why does your school need to charge you $100 for a chicken parmesan and a DJ? I guarantee the administration inflated the ticket prices as soon as they heard Steve was footing the bill. The real move? Scrap the prom tickets—just hand out scholarships instead. But sure, let's pretend free prom is the solution to life's problems.Then, we talked airline insanity because Southwest Airlines just gave us the wildest in-flight entertainment yet—a woman took off all her clothes and paraded up and down the aisles mid-flight. Peak aviation right there. If my Southwest flight to Mexico for the wedding doesn't feature at least one spontaneous nudist, I'll be disappointed. Apparently, Southwest is fully on board with the “no-pants policy,” so I'm expecting a very liberated flight crew when we take off. What are we doing?Finally, Fyre Festival 2 is back because America loves a good scam. Billy McFarland—fresh out of prison—is selling tickets for his nonexistent festival on an island in Mexico. The local government? No clue about it. Artists? None booked. The price? Anywhere from $1,500 to $1.2 million. You know I'm tempted to go just to live-stream the disaster in real-time. I could be the first performer. I'll do karate, tap dance, magic tricks, and a live podcast episode. Call it the Levi Eras Tour. Let's get this man another fraud conviction.************************************************************* ✅BLUECHEW - FIRST ORDER FREE Only $5 Shippinghttps://wawdpod.com/blue*************************************************************✅DUDEROBE - PROMO CODE: WAWD 20% OFFhttps://duderobe.com - promo code: WAWD

Techdirt has finally accepted the inevitable and gone full democracy blog—because let's face it, politics and tech are now the same dumpster fire. Google rolled out AI Mode for Search, proving once again that the internet is just Clippy with better branding. Meanwhile, Billy McFarland insists Fyre Festival 2 is totally happening, despite Mexican officials pointing out that his coordinates literally lead to the ocean. Speaking of fraud, Tesla sales are in freefall thanks to Elon's alt-right cosplay, and people are setting Teslas on fire in protest. And in rich-guy disconnect news, Google's Sergey Brin thinks engineers should work 60-hour weeks to build the AI that will replace them. That's some late-stage capitalism poetry right there.Elsewhere, Trump Media paid Don Jr. nearly a quarter of its revenue to show up twice, while indie musicians can't afford to tour, proving once again that grifting is more profitable than making art. Technicolor shut down overnight, stranding 10,000 workers because Hollywood's financial planning is apparently as stable as a Starship rocket launch. Oh yeah, SpaceX exploded another one.Meanwhile, Netflix's attempt to upscale A Different World turned it into a Lovecraftian horror show. A quarter of Y Combinator startups now run on “vibe coding,” meaning their software is basically a Ouija board with extra steps. The AI takeover continues as OpenAI plans to charge $20,000 monthly for specialized AI "agents," proving once again that the revolution will be monetized. Meanwhile, Moscow's Pravda network has been poisoning Western AI chatbots with Russian propaganda, because if you can't convince humans, just brainwash the robots that humans increasingly trust.On the bright side, hackers brought the Humane AI Pin back to life after it was bricked, transforming an overpriced paperweight into... a slightly less useless overpriced paperweight. ChatGPT can now directly edit code in macOS development tools, making it easier for AI to introduce bugs you never would have thought of yourself. Over At the Library, check out "The Tempest" by Peter Cawdron for your first contact fix, and if you're worried about where society is heading (and who isn't?), Timothy Snyder's "On Tyranny" offers a survival guide for our slow-motion constitutional collapse.

This week, Aleen and Sami begin with a tribute to Michelle Trachtenberg, in light of her tragic passing on Wednesday. Then, they unpack the news that infamous conman Billy McFarland is back with plans for Fyre Festival 2, featuring a lot of vague ideas and exactly zero confirmed artists. Will Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino make an appearance? Who exactly is shelling out $1.1mil for VIP tickets to the "experience of Fyre" (whatever that means)? In podcast news, Alix Earle's podcast has been dropped by Alex Cooper's Unwell Network, amidst rumors and Deux Moi posts hinting at tension between the Al(i/e)xes. Speaking of Alex Cooper, Monica Lewinsky promoted her new podcast with a guest appearance on Call Her Daddy this week, stirring Aleen and Sami's formative elementary school memories of the scandal and impeachment trial. Next up, they dive into the series premiere of The Baldwins - from Hilaria doubling down on the Spanish accent, to Alec's Rust trial, to their seven (seven!) kids, to the ultimate question of: ¿por qué? Pivoting from trashy reality to prestige scripted, they share their latest White Lotus takes. Our Betch of the Week is Rihanna, for the exciting news about her long-awaited 9th album, and we're sending Billy McFarland off to the Caymans because we know how much he loves an island.
