Arguments & Grievances is a live comedy series and podcast featuring comedians debating outlandish topics with audiences choosing the victor. An outrageous enterprise exploring the heated issues of the day, including: "Hugs
vs. Drugs", "Dr. Dre vs. Dr. Seuss", and "Batman vs. Spiderman."

Half comedy show, half rhetorical fight to the death, Arguments & Grievances is an impressive showing of live comedy, absurdity, and engaging fun.

Arguments & Grievances is every first Friday of the month at 8 pm at North Bar in Chicago’s Wicker Park neighborhood.
