Show Notes
In Episode 99 of the I'M PEAKING Podcast, we discuss relationships, trust, and whether regularly attending festivals without your partner should be a red flag. We also ask whether ravers are using PLUR as an excuse for bad behavior: from cyberbullying over shoulder rides and festival stunts to the backlash against Jan’s hot takes on festival debt, substance use, and responsible raving. When does being “nonjudgmental” turn into letting everything slide? Plus, we discuss looking out for each other at events, Kyle’s experience at Kaskade’s Sunsoaked, and whether Burning Man is worth the chaos, before reacting to viral rave clips featuring a crowd-surfing banana, an impressive all-female shoulder stack, and a guy who apparently thought the rail was a bathroom. 💀
Would you be okay with your partner going to festivals without you? Tell us where you draw the line in the comments! 👇 We hope you enjoy this episode 🤍

Do guys go to raves for the music… or the girls?! 👀 In Episode 101 of the I'M PEAKING Podcast, we dress up for Halloween and get into why some guys really go to festivals, the assumptions people make about women’s rave outfits, and whether raving gets lonelier as you get older. We also talk about the Niteharts experience, newer ravers learning PLUR, and why bad weather isn’t an excuse to leave your campsite trashed. Plus, we react to HeadTrip’s evacuation, a fan clacker getting called out, and sober gym raves before putting our rave knowledge to the test with Guess the Rave Object. 💀Have you ever felt lonely or left out at a rave, even with your own rave fam? Let us know in the comments!

Is getting messed up at raves in your 30s embarrassing, or are people just being judgmental? 👀 In EP. 98 of the I’M PEAKING Podcast, we’re joined by rising pop EDM artist, singer, and producer MONIC to share some of our most embarrassing rave stories and question whether enjoying EDM is something you’re ever supposed to “grow out of.” Also, is all dubstep starting to sound the same, or are our tastes just changing? Join us as we discuss Kaskade's new wave of producing dubstep, Devin's “dubstep fatigue,” and whether hearing similar sets back-to-back has us craving something different. We also get into GTA 6 EDM nightclub footage, how video games introduce people to electronic music, and the difference between massive visual productions and sets that let the music do the talking. MONIC also shares music from her upcoming EP, "Here from the Beginning," and talks about building her audience through social media. Finally, we react to questionable viral rave videos, debate phones on the dance floor, and defend our love for Zedd.
On Episode 97 of the I’M PEAKING Podcast, we’re joined by our good friend, Jared Feather: IFBB Pro bodybuilder, sports physiologist, and Head Physique & Bodybuilding Specialist at RP Strength, to finally settle the debate between raving and making gains. Jared explains what actually happens to your progress when you spend an entire weekend dancing, barely eating, and running on four hours of sleep. We discuss how much sleep you really need to build muscle, why protein and consistent training matter more than perfectly optimizing every detail, and how Jared manages to balance professional bodybuilding with his newfound love for raving.
Should raves be 21+ only? Or are older ravers conveniently forgetting how young they were when they joined the scene? In Episode 96 of the I'M PEAKING Podcast, the crew debates whether 18-year-olds really belong at raves, whether younger attendees are actually hurting the experience, and why so many ravers seem to hate 18+ events. We also break down the controversy surrounding Zingara and the Riddim community, the rise of sober raving, the uncertain future of Electric Forest, festival fence-hopping, and some of the biggest conversations happening across rave culture right now. Are 18+ raves actually worse, or have older ravers just become the people they used to complain about? Let us know where you stand in the comments!! We hope you enjoy this episode, and make sure to SUBSCRIBE for more unfiltered conversations about EDM, festivals, and rave culture every other week! 🔔🤍
