About this episode

The episode discusses the current state of rave culture, including festival experiences and societal impacts.

In Episode 90 of the I'M PEAKING Podcast, we get into some of the wildest festival stories, from running into ex-situationships at raves (aka nightmare fuel) to prepping for EDC Las Vegas 2026. But, beyond the funny moments, we dive into some real conversations around the scene right now. We talk about France cracking down on underground raves, Justin Bieber’s "controversial" Coachella performance, and whether festivals are becoming more about influencers than the actual music. Plus, the big question: "Are we starting to lose PLUR, and is it time to gatekeep the culture again?" We also break down whether raving is actually healthy, the importance of community, and how to keep the culture alive as the scene continues to grow + a full segment where we react to viral rave and festival clips going around right now!Let us know in the comments: Is rave culture evolving… or falling apart?
