About this episode

Lili & Dan had the pleasure sitting down with the guy who tried to save the Fyre Festival, Andy King!

You may remember Andy on the #1 Netflix documentary 'FYRE: The Greatest Party That Never Happened' in 2019 as the guy who was willing to take one for the team to get Evian Water into the Festival.

Andy paid the festival workers himself by doing guest appearances and talks around the United States, aswell as consulting event planners around the world.
