Embrace Laughter with unsober Chelsea Handler

Strap in and hold onto your mocktails because living in sobriety is like putting on a pair of high-definition life goggles! And who better to guide you through this vodka-free vista than the queen of quirk and big balls, Chelsea Handler! She’s like that friend who says what everyone is thinking but dresses it up in a cocktail dress and a punchline instead of, well, a cocktail.

As you revel in your sober fabulousness, you’ll find Chelsea’s comedy to be as refreshing as a splash of cold water on a hot day—minus the hangover.

Chelsea turns the daily grind into a grin, transforming tales of life’s faceplants into banners of triumph—especially for anyone who’s swapped spirits for sparkling water.
