In a Jordan Harbinger first, this conversation was done over the phone with the guest Billy McFarland, in federal prison -- and yes, this interview really did land Billy in solitary confinement. In 2017, the influencer-hyped Fyre Festival was supposed to be the can’t-miss event for any self-respecting millennial of means. It was co-created by Ja Rule and today’s guest, Billy McFarland, as a posh, modern answer to Woodstock on a beautiful, remote island in the pristine Bahamas. But Billy bit off more than he could chew and, rather than call the whole thing off, he convinced investors to funnel millions into the project only for it to fail and leave attendees stranded in the middle of nowhere with FEMA tents as their only shelter against the elements. On this episode, Billy talks to us from inside federal prison, where he’s serving six years for fraud and on the hook for $26 million in restitution. We discuss big ideas, countless regrets (he’s had a few), lessons learned on the inside, the value of trust (and the uphill battle of trying to rebuild it once it’s lost), and Billy’s plans for the future once he’s served the time he agrees he rightly deserves. Listen, learn, and enjoy! ✍️ Full show notes and worksheet for this episode: https://jordanharbinger.com/422 What We Discuss with Billy McFarland: 🔥 The ideas that sparked what Fyre Festival was trying to achieve on an epic scale and the shortcomings that transformed it into a fraudulent, failed mess. 🔥 The countless things Billy would do differently if he could have a do-over. 🔥 The numerous ways in which prisons are warehouses of unmet potential. 🔥 How Billy stays safe and sane when he’s in solitary confinement. 🔥 Billy’s biggest regrets and what he hopes to have a chance to accomplish after he’s served the time he agrees he deserves. 🔥 And much more… Never miss a single incredible insight!
