Who, Us?

SPORTS DRINK was founded in 2020 by Andrew Stephens, a Baton Rouge native / New Orleans hooligan, and is the brand continuation of Armchair Media: a podcast network focused on the nexus of sports & comedy.

SPORTS DRINK opened a brick & mortar event space on Toledano Street in New Orleans in May 2023, sharing a location with Junk Drawer Coffee by day. After more than a year of successful partnership, SPORTS DRINK purchased the coffee assets from Junk Drawer and updated the brand to SPORTS DRINK: Cafe & Comedy Club.

In October, following only six months of weekly live comedy, SPORTS DRINK was named ‘Best Place to See Comedy’ in New Orleans by NOLA.com. 2025 will feature more than 300 nighttime events on Toledano Street, with more than 200 nights of live comedy.
