What's up, everybody? Welcome to another episode of History Hyenas. I am Chris DiStefano,

a.k. Chrissy Coachella, with me as always, Janis Pappas, aka Yanni Yogurt.

Yes, I'm Yonni. Again, we're going to tell you about the history of music festivals.

And of course, it all started with the Greeks. And so just know that you got to pay homage to the original people,

the Hellenics. The Hellenics. A lot of you people, we gave you everything. Everything. A lot of you

people probably think that music festivals started very recently and you're wrong. Okay, we got a

banger of an episode for you today and we're going to tell you where music festival started, where they've went, where they're going, and what's all going to happen. And we are coming to you live from the history hanging new studio, which is about 3,500 miles away from where Coachella currently is. And that's a good thing, not a bad thing. Yeah, you don't want to be anywhere near it. I don't want to be anywhere near it. It ain't for me, babe. It ain't for me. I didn't know really what it was.

Okay. That's how I know I'm getting old where I just I don't want to be anywhere near it. It ain't for me, babe. It ain't for me. I didn't know really what it was.

Okay.

That's how I know I'm getting old where I just, I've just been hearing Coachella every year.

And I just, I thought it was like a woman's fashion brand.

Yeah, well, the thing is, the good news for me is that my, uh, he's a 47-year-old man,

and he's currently at Coachella, so it's a good thing he was let go. Because if I, he's at Coachella right now, I wouldn't be a happy camper right now. Yeah. But I'm pretty happy right now because I've let that go. What I've learned through therapy is just to sometimes you've got to let things go. You have to unburden yourself.

You got to unburden yourself. It's at Coachella and you're 50. You have to unburden that.

What it is. He's a good friend, but I had to let it go. Just can't have it. We're living different lives, pal.

Yeah. It's just, it's just, it's, you got a life at Coachella and you got a life where you're just on Zillow. Yeah, because here's the thing, I got to, I have burdens at home. Yeah. And most of them originated in San Juan. So, and that's why Coachella's not going to work for me. I'm happy for the people who are there right now who enjoy it and I'm very excited to talk through the history of this all, but it is not for me.

I'm going to do. Now I want to say something before. Now, I want to say something before we get into the history of music festivals and Coachella. You're going to learn everything you need to know about music festivals where they came from and Coachella.

But I do want to just quickly, very, very quickly say that Janice and I are now doing a new bit over at patreon.com. history hyenas. We're doing skits. It's a new skit at patreon.com slash history hyenas. It's called snowstorm. And what we've done is we're doing a podcast from under the covers because Janus would play a game with his daughter where to help curb her anxiety. She would be worried about the snow and storms we'd'd hide under the covers and then we checked to see if there's a snowstorm.

So what we've done is we talked about anxiety. If you have any anxiety issues, if you have anything that's bothering you, what you need to do is go to patreon.com. Say, history and is submit your anxiety claim, and we will discuss your problem under the covers. Under the covers, where you're always safe because there's a snowstorm outside, but when you go under the covers, you're safe from the snowstorm.

The only thing you're not safe from under the covers is a fart.

Right.

That's what it is.
