CHD Six RESULTS
We held our first Comedy Hack Day in Los Angeles at YouTube Space LA, home to amazing production facilities for YouTube Creators, a helicopter, and for one weekend a bunch of weird CHD attendees. The LA tech and comedy communities showed up in a big way and demoed some of the most fun CHD projects we've ever had.
