Literally, the Electric Gaysian Controversy! EDC Part 2 with Tay Nguyen, Martin Hui and Aydin Quach
Our previous episode stirred up some DRAMA! We dive into the Electric Gaysian Controversy at EDC with two new guests: NYC rave ambassadors Tay Nguyen (@taywen) and Martin Hui (@martinhui). And we bring back rave researcher Aydin Quach (@aydin_quach) to get his hot takes on the aftermath -- the cliques! the fanning on Kinetic Field! the NY gaysians! the rave baes! the trance-phobia! Sh*t gets real when we talk about how the controversy felt and share our peak core memories from EDC. Plus, Tay and Martin join us for a little rave game.
