    Ep. 260 - Global Citizen Festival 2024 - Review
    Oct 5 2024
    Exactly 5 years ago, I began this podcast and attended the Global Citizen Festival on 9/28/19. My first episode recapped that awesome event! I luckily won again for this year's (9/28/24), but unfortunately couldn't stay the whole time due to unexpected weather. Global Citizen is a great non-profit organization advocating world issues, and accomplishing goals by society participating in their projects. Since 2012, they hold a free annual concert every last weekend in September, rewarding participants as winners to attend. Advocating more awareness and celebrity support, I recap my full concert review for 2024's recent festival. Theme Song: "Dance Track", composed by Jessica Ann CatenaText the show!
