Welcome to Episode 12 with Amy Bunker. After spending a couple of years being very Burning Man adjacent while living and studying in Northern California she finally made it out to BRC in 2001. Amy has worked and volunteered in many departments over the years. Her longest stint was as Regional Contact for New Hampshire, Vermont, and Maine in the early 2000’s. She has been to many Regional events from Hawaii to Europe and has worked with some of them particularly Love burn in Miami. Amy is filled with great stories and inspirational anecdotes about how Burning Man has impacted her life and those close to her.

Welcome to the first show of 2025 featuring Beth From the show Accuracy Third (https://accuracythird.com/). They are a podcast about Burning Man, or "an oral history of Black Rock City", and they first started their show about 9 years ago. It's a great show and I encourage you to check it out.

Learn about Beth and her journey to Black Rock City and how she volunteered, got involved, and met her co-hosts. Our conversation is wide ranging and shines a light on some little known facts about year-round operations and staff.

in 2025 Playa Pete will mark his 30th consecutive trip to BRC (minus 2020 and 2021, but he did go to the renegade burns). Over the years he has been one of the main screen printing suppliers to BMP and more recently he has held the position of First Cabin Boy on the Monaco.

Pete spins quite a few amazing tales, follow his story from growing up in Vancouver, joining the Air Force, becoming a male model, and meeting Danger Ranger who wanted him to make some of the first Ranger t-shirts. Pete has more tales than can fit into one episode we will have to have him back again.
