HILF: History I'd Like to F**k

Join Dawn for three hilarious stories told live, all centered around one simple question: what is the WORST DAY AT WORK? Dawn and her guests dig into spectacular professional disasters, bad decisions, and the kind of workplace chaos that makes you grateful you can just go home at the end of the day. Recorded live with the HILF crowd at Flappers Comedy Club (in beautiful Burbank, California).

It was a cold and blustery night in 1692 when the Macdonalds were slaughtered in their beds by a group of rival Campbells who had not only sworn them no harm, but had been their guests for almost two weeks. Dawn is joined by friend and comedy writer, Joe Roche, for the dark tale of the Glencoe Massacre.

Dawn is joined by Kat Perkins, one of her best friends (and the voice of the HILF theme song!) for a dive into the dark history of cults. From the strangest real-life rituals, to the made-up cults - and why it's important to know the difference.

HILF original music by Kat Perkins @katperkinsmusic

King Philip is simultaneously a real historic figure, and an object of early American fantasy. Join Dawn and a live audience at Flappers Comedy Club (in beautiful Burbank, California) to hear the tale of how history reports... and distorts... just like the present does.
