The critically acclaimed Drunk Black History show returns to the "City of Angels" to highlight more Black History stories!

Featuring a stellar lineup of comedians, podcasters, writers, and experts who are hilariously tipsy as they recount the stories of overlooked figures and moments in Black history, this isn't your typical history lesson. Expect laughs, unexpected twists, and fascinating facts about how Black culture has shaped the world. It's the Daily Show meets Drunk History with a live audience!

Joining host Brandon Collins (SiriusXM) on stage will be Jill Munroe (KBLA Talk 1580), Franchesca Ramsey (Acclaimed Webby winner), Sequoia Holmes (Black People Love Paramore), and Langston Kerman (Abbott Elementary)!
