138 - Fyre Festival

This is not a true-crime story that we are used to talking about. We normally cover tales of serial killers and gore, but sometimes, crime can have a very different face. What could have been the Woodstock of the millennial generation turned out to be one of the most successful marketing campaigns for the worst event in recent memory. What made a few 20-somethings and a rapper feel like they could throw a luxury music festival in the Bahamas in only 5 months? Who gave them the money to do this? We'll talk about it all in this week's episode.   Email: [email protected] Website: crimeculturepodcast.tumblr.com Instagram: @crimeculturepodcast Twitter: @CrimeCulturePod Facebook: @crimeculturepodcast And join our Patreon!
