Woodstock '99: Mosh Pit at the Apocalypse with Sam Sanders and Lindy West | 20

Woodstock '99 was meant to commemorate the original, historic festival with “three days of peace and music” but instead became "three days of rage and chaos." Hundreds of thousands of angry young men celebrated the end of the millennium by moshing to acts like Limp Bizkit, Korn and Kid Rock. But, when food and water became scarce, and the porta potties overflowed, they ended up rioting. If you thought Fyre Fest was bad…at least it wasn’t actually on fire!  Journalist Sam Sanders (Vibe Check, It's Been A Minute) and comedian and author Lindy West (Text Me Back!) join Misha to answer all of the burning questions about Woodstock '99.
