Also, be sure to check out The Apocalypse Post: / theapocalypsepost to learn more about Wasteland Weekend, and how you can get involved if you ever decide to check it out for yourself.
Also find us on Facebook and Instagram @CONNECTCULTRE.
We spent this last weekend at a post-apocalyptic music and arts festival called Wasteland Weekend, where Mad Max meets BURNING MAN in the best way possible! It turned out to be an entire real life community dedicated to the obsession of anarchy and escaping the real world for a week of living as if the apocalypse has hit. Check out their story!

So pleased to have been part of this. I Had a ball with the interview. So happy to see you found a Wasteland Great, Mike Darling, he's a good one out there. I must say , you nailed this for first timers, such a wonderful job on this. From the sound of our conversation, I think you are hooked and I'll be seeing you both next year. Can't wait to see more from you at Connect Culture. The best to you. Until Next Time... -M-

[@junker7791]

It was part of a prank involving a HeckleCawPter stolen from the Black Crows and some smooth talking by the Farlanders - you'd have to be there man

[@joeyguevara3341]

No jk

[@ArtisanAlli]

Wow well done video :) - I love this event after 6 years and counting, you've done it justice and I'm feeling extremely lucky to have been featured in this at 4:49 - thanks!

[@ConnectCulture]

Wow thank you this means a lot!

[@redpandaz5146]

It looks fun, but since it's in September I'm going to have to wait until I'm out of college to go, so probably can't come before like, 2022

[@Zomb13T3k]

I'm still a virgin and have been trying to change that for four years now but this was absolutely, the best WW 101 I've come across. Thank you so much for sharing this and maybe even sparking up a little raw emotion. Hopefully I'll get to see all you beautiful fucks in 2020! *salute*

[@exciteart]

Everything goes normal and peacefull. Until someone shouting "WITNESSS!!!" ... and everybody went panic

[@ConnectCulture]

haha

[@maxskullic9879]

That's cute, I live like that year round! I'm a cowboy mad Max and a courier on the fury roads! I think we need a place like this open Year Round! I would live in a wasteland world!

[@zippo360]

[@elliebosten6053]

I wanna go. Sounds fun never known something like this was made. I was like man I wanna make something like this. With like a game. Zombies chaceing people and then check who lives. I wanted to make like a little stage for people to get on one at a time to say how they made there costume and stuff like little sections of everything. I think it would be cool.

[@TheCourtneycliche]

[@DynohasADD]

You really summed it up quite well. Nice work!

[@ConnectCulture]

Hey! Thank you!

[@vilanyas.1808]

Coming from an outsider who has never experienced this, I wish you had filmed more!! I really enjoy your videos and this one was kinda short compared to the others ☹️ But still fascinating! 👍🏽 I have kinda watched this movement for years, but never had the guts to join 🤷🏽‍♀️ Closest I ever got to this experience was going to Xara for a couple years with my Coven, which was a kind of pre-Burning Man party on the top of a mountain. I don’t remember much though because I was, erm....”Partaking” in the “Atmosphere” most of the time 🤣🤣🤣 Anyway, keep it up!!! I love your vision and enthusiasm for experiences ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ConnectCulture]

Thank you! I love this comment

[@Greymond]

same!!! one day I will definitely one day go!

[@GM.572]

I’m just waiting for a Sweet Tooth to pop up in the vid I love this festival 😂

[@falloutpropguy]

[@ConnectCulture]

AnarchoFuturist thank you I appreciate that

[@thederrick106]

How could this video ever get a thumbs down? Defiantly no thumbs down from a true Wastelander that's for sure! WW2020 will be missed :(

[@anagramconfirmed1717]

Defiantly?

[@eriks7405]

That honda car sneaked in lol.

[@PrincePeach777]

This really has me hype for WW 2020!

[@fluxypoo]

There I am @4:11 ! Yay

[@falloutpropguy]

It was so much fun def going back next year

[@drew8642]

Like the in-depth explanation of the actual event since it’s a role play type thing and not actual brutal survival.

[@cactus4983]

Everybody gangsta till the helicar comes into battle

[@Johnny_Rockafeller]

Holy shit i cannot wait for WW 2021, sadly i cant go to WW 2020 Because i will still be attending school omg i've been waiting sense i was 15 and i couldnt wait to attend sense i saw the documentary in 2017 this is going to be so fun to do. :)

[@drew8642]

Take what you can carry and go to a wilderness area and survive that’s real.

Then there me in a NCR trooper outfit just saying patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for a nuclear winter

🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@Bettinasisrg]

Way too much SWM but cool for some.

[@sushi_vr2443]

Are kids allowed?

[@ArtisanAlli]

No kids, this is an 18+ event

[@merpkiller]

whelp, I know where I'm going later this year. My people are calling.

[@IndigoXYZ18]

Can't wait for the climate change apocalypse so I can ride around on some four legged Boston Dynamics bot dressed like a post-apocalypse cowboy without looking like a larper.

[@kalaubukanrosmahmalaysiama2530]

where is the human rights

[@land417]

Huh?

[@kramster20032]

Granted this is for a 5 day event. but at over 300$ per person, it isn't worth it. There are so many other larps that are out there that are cheaper that don't require you to request vacation time from work. At that price at least you can provide a place to sleep not camping areas.

[@falloutpropguy]

Are you a absolute lunatic or have you just never gone to an event before burning man is like $1,000 a ticket Coachella starts at like 700 for 2 days 300.00 is nothing for an event this size that is 5 days long especially when you take into account that virtually everything there is free how most people spend 3 to 500.00 just on alcohol for a multiple Day music event Wasteland weekend it's free Yeah there's other post-apocalyptic lamps that are like a hundred dollars a ticket but those are usually like two 300 people meeting up at an abandoned Factory that barely has had any work put into it or a bunch of people running around the woods Wasteland weekend is a fully functional City with so much stuff to do😂

FBI fly out here! There were people from all over the world

[@user-dx8cu2vy1c]

Cool..but... it's a little far .hehue

[@Tom_Seeker]

Its not real life, its just play, cosplay, no one takes this seriously

[@ConnectCulture]

People take it seriously, just probably not in the way you might think

[@celestepalm6949]

This is the kind of mentality that will probably bring on what these yahoos think is "fun," especially if they're AI cheerleaders & singularity worshipers.

[@belmordok3661]

This is so cool. Greetings from Croatia P.S. As for the survival, try doing it in my part of the world and see how it goes. Salve
