What we’re about
Welcome to The Drunken Historians Society!
Do you love history, biographies, and raising a glass to the past? Then this is the perfect book club for you. We’re a group of history enthusiasts in Phoenix who dive into the lives of historical figures, explore pivotal moments in history, and enjoy lively discussions over drinks.
Each month, we choose a biography or history book to read. Whether it's about a famous leader, an unsung hero, or a fascinating event, we meet up in a relaxed setting—usually at a local bar or pub—to discuss the book, share insights, and enjoy drinks.
What to expect:
Thought-provoking discussions on history, culture, and the lives of intriguing figures.
A fun, friendly atmosphere where history lovers of all backgrounds can connect.
Great company, good drinks, and a new book every month!
Who should join: Anyone who loves a good story, historical or biographical books, and engaging conversation with a drink in hand. Whether you’re a casual reader or a history buff, everyone’s welcome.

Drunken Scribes!
This October, our journey takes a sharp turn into the mischievous mind of a modern sage. We’ll be reading Surely You’re Joking, Mr. Feynman! — the witty and irreverent memoir of Nobel Prize–winning physicist Richard P. Feynman. From cracking safes at Los Alamos to adventures in science, art, and beyond, Feynman offers stories that are as outrageous as they are insightful. Expect equal parts laughter, eyebrow-raising disbelief, and reflection on the strange ways brilliance meets everyday life.
You can grab your copy here: Amazon link.
As before, we’ll cap attendance at 20 participants to keep the conversation lively but manageable. There will be a waitlist, and dropouts are common, so don’t be shy about signing up. An entry fee of $5.00 goes toward tipping our server (separate from your tab). Payment can be made in person.
While this won’t be a themed night, playful nods to Feynman’s eccentricity are welcome — whether it’s a doodle on your napkin, a “safe-cracker’s” grin, or just a story of your own curiosity run wild.
