When Bonnaroo Breaks Your Heart: Our Reaction to the 2025 Cancellation
We're still reeling from the cancellation of Bonnaroo 2025, and in this episode of The What Podcast, we open up about the heartbreak, frustration, and confusion that swept through the Bonnaroo community after historic rainfall forced organizers to call off the festival. We talk about what it was like to travel from all over the country—some of us from as far away as Seattle and New York—only to have the weekend cut short, and how we’re coping with the "Bonnaflu" that seems to follow every year.
