V enaintrideseti epizodi smo povzeli dogajanje v obdobju po koncu prvega dela izmenjave. V Ljubljani smo le nekaj dni po vrnitvi organizirali dva dogodka, prvega v Zorici v sodelovanju s Consuleom (Vid Benjamin Krajnc), drugega v Klubu K4 s Kibernet Kriminalität, kjer so v goste prišli rezidenti katalonske založbe Kompound.
Še preden smo se uspeli privaditi na domače okolje, je sledil odhod na festival EXIT. Brez predaha smo se odpravili na festival Butik, kjer smo nudili logistično podporo in prevzeli vloge dveh stage managerjev in treh artist hospitalityjev. Neposredno po tednu Tolmina smo se odpravili v Benetke, kjer smo prespali in se takoj naslednje jutro odpravili v Berlin, kjer nas je pred odhodom v Stuttgart čakal še zadnji teden pisarniških priprav za WET Open Air Festival, ki se je nato zgodil v soboto 30. julija.
Novost od sedaj bodo objave vlogov večjih projektov na YouTubeu, govorili pa bomo, bolj ali manj pokrivljeno, v angleščini.

V trideseti epizodi smo povzeli dogajanje v obdobju med kratkim premorom v Sloveniji in obiskom nizozemskega festivala Free Your Mind v Arnhemu in še nekaj ostalih dogodivščin.
Glavni razlog obiska festivala je bilo gostovanje znamke HYTE, pri kateri delata Jurij in David, in snemanje kratkega aftermovieja (Maks). Opisali smo našo izkušnjo ozadja festivala, kjer se je tekom konca tedna vsak dan zbralo preko 17.000 obiskovalcev.
Kako je izgledala večerja z glavnim organizatorjem in kje se lahko znajdeš, če se 82x ponudiš za pomoč? Vse izveste v epizodi.

V 24. epizodi je bil naš gost Vid Benjamin Krajnc, ki je glasbo začel ustvarjati pod imenom Herflex, zdaj pa se vse bolj posveča svojemu prvotno stranskemu projektu z imenom consule.

V 23. epizodi smo gostili prvi obraz mlade slovenske rock skupine Joker Out, Bojana Cvjetićanina. Pogovarjali smo se o njihovem novem vadbenem prostoru, kaj njemu predstavlja glasba, ločevanju komentarjev publike na relevantne in nerelevantne in procesu ustvarjanja videospotov.
