In “Dune: Part Two” (which, by the way, comes out THIS Friday, March 1!!!), Austin Butler will be playing Feyd-Rautha! So what happens in this sequel? No spoilers, of course, but Paul Atreides will unite with Chani and the Fremen while seeking revenge against the conspirators who destroyed his family. We cannot WAIT for this sequel!
Check out this cool moment from the NYC premiere as Austin met up with Sting, who played the same character in the 1984 version of the movie!
Dune: Part Two will be in theaters on Friday, March 1.

Everything You Need To Know For Attending Preston & Steve's Cardboard Classic
Preston & Steve’s Cardboard Classic returns to Montage Mountain on March 1, 2024.
How did the event get started? Back in 2006, Preston & Steve Show host, Preston Elliot had an idea: invite listeners to build sleds using only 4 materials and race them down a snow tubing hill. It took a bit of convincing, but the bosses officially added the Cardboard Classic to 93.3 WMMR’s Day Off on the Slopes, a station tradition since the mid-80’s. We did not know what to expect those first years, but the creativity of the sled builders blew us away!
The 4 materials are simple: cardboard, tape, glue and string, but the creations are anything but basic. From 2person bobsleds to 30-person tiki bars; just when we think we’ve seen it all, the listeners find a new way to surprise us.
This year, the sleds will race down the tubing hill at Montage Mountain competing for prizes based on categories like design, theme, and speed. Preston & Steve’s Cardboard Classic is free for spectators to attend. Sleds must be registered ahead of time.
Whether it’s your first time attending, or you’re just looking to amp up your experience, we’re here with everything you need to know about Preston & Steve’s Cardboard Classic:

Staying Over Is a Great Idea
If you plan on getting on the mountain early or partying all day – or both – we recommend staying over. A quick search will show lots of hotels and rentals in the area. Sites likes Discover NEPA and Visit PA are also great resources for exploring the area.

What's it like there?
The best party you will ever attend on the side of a mountain (that’s our bias opinion).
It’s kinda/really crazy. People start showing up early and steaking their spot on the mountain. The sledding competition begins around 10 – 10:30am. Before that, you can wander around and see the sleds up close and meet the teams. Montage Mountain has food and drink for sale at multiple outdoor concession stands. The video below gives a great overview of the event from the vantage point of the crowd.
Preston & Steve’s Cardboard Classic is just the beginning of the epic weekend. Bring your gear because Montage Mountain will have the trails open ready for you to shred. After the trophies are handed out, live music kicks off in the festival area and Pierre Robert and Brent Porsche broadcast live from the lodge. Collective Soul hits the stage at 5pm Friday night. Then we do it all again on Saturday. Festival vendors, live music with The 502s and O.A.R.. more. It’s all capped off with a fireworks show at sundown. Tickets for Mountainfest available via MontageMountainResorts.com.
