The unorthodox and unfiltered southern Louisianan comedian hosts two podcasts called the "King and the Sting" and "This Past Weekend." The podcasts boast millions of  subscribers and recently drew guests including President-elect Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance.

He also has a comedy special, Regular People, which is streaming on Netflix.

After a world tour that ended in 2020, Von is traveling again on his Return of the Rat tour, which will bring him to Tuscaloosa on April 11th, 2025.

Tickets go on sale next Monday, November 11th, at 10 a.m. They can be purchased on Von's website here, ordered via Ticketmaster, or bought from MercedesBenzAmphitheater.com
