  Launch Your Draw. America's go-to party game is back, and bigger than ever. Comedians compete to see who can sketch and guess the most, while raising money for two charities. There's sure to be laughter and good vibes at this hilarious competition; don't miss it if it comes your way - this year's theme is "The Differences." The Clash The Clash was an alternative rock band known for their songs about revolution and class struggle; yet their roots were surprising traditional. Joe Strummer (born John Graham Mellor), spent much of his early twenties attending boarding school. Later he busked in London before joining pub rock group called the 101'ers. Meanwhile Mick Jones from Brixton led hard rock band London SS; these two bands eventually came together under The Clash's auspices in 1977 with an aim to produce music that resonated directly with working-class youth. The band's first American tour was an incredible success, winning them critical acclaim with its satirical sociopolitical commentary and energetic live performances that delighted audiences. However, their growing fame began taking its toll; Leader and co-founder Mick Jones became frustrated with drummer David Droney for playing too fast and loud; also, feeling under pressure from fellow bandmates; having to perform under such intense paramilitary conditions was starting to drive him crazy; in interviews he complained bitterly of performing for "hero worshipping fans". Recording sessions for London Calling were intense and chaotic. The band hired producer Guy Stevens - famous for his unusual approach - to produce it and his flamboyant working methods meant he often used ladders or chairs thrown across studio to add drama. While this caused its sound quality to fluctuate significantly between sessions, this gave London Calling its energy that the band desired. This album was both critically and commercially successful for The Clash; yet, it marked their last great moment of glory. Soon after the record's release, its members began to drift apart: Headon was forced out due to drug problems while Crimes and Howard joined as replacements; thus signalling its end but leaving a lasting legacy of political activism and musical innovation that remains significant today. Loni Love Loni Love emerged from Detroit's Brewster-Douglass housing projects with an unwavering work ethic, earning a scholarship to Prairie View A&M University in Texas to study electrical engineering - but soon found herself drawn toward comedy as she performed stand-up performances and won gigs and competitions before transitioning onto TV as one of its most celebrated comedians. She has become a go-to guest on talk shows, appearing in several films and co-hosting Fox's daytime program The Real. Additionally, she published her first book: Love Him or Leave Him: But Don't Pick Up the Tab (part memoir and part relationship advice book).

Additionally, he's appeared in Parks and Recreation, Nick Swardson's Pretend Time, Game Shop and Burning Love as well as having had several roles on Rooster Teeth Production's sci-fi series Lazer Team. Colton prefers acting to writing because there's more appreciation when one is seen onscreen. He acknowledges, though, it can be challenging adjusting to having to maintain moisturized skin and apply makeup specifically tailored for cameras. He's learned not to waste his energy responding to online haters who only serve to distract him from his work; preferring instead reserving his energy for those who support what he's doing instead.
