Ash and Michelle take down the intensity a notch with this week's episode. Models on yachts sipping champaign on what was once Pablo Escobar's island... influencers, delicious food, luxury accommodations, beautiful art and amazing music in the Bahamas. That's what was promised if you bought a ticket to 2017's Fyre Festival, tickets that went for well into the thousands to tens of thousands of dollars. What festival goers got was the opposite of the experience that they had dreamed of and been promised- basically 24 hours in hell.
