Where Joel Kim Booster Eats (& Parties) In LA - Los Angeles - The Infatuation

"Since I couldn't put, 'Random Warehouse in Skid Row' on my list, I was thinking about the places that I actually have had a lot of fun going out at, and Catch One is a really special place. It's a Los Angeles landmark. It is one of the first Black safe spaces as a club in LA. There's such a rich history there. And it's also where I shot my Netflix special because I wanted to shoot at a place where I've partied with good vibes and energy and memories. It's very eclectic. I've seen Honey Dijon play there, and I've gone to Burning Man parties there. I think you'll notice a theme in a lot of places that I like to party: I need space. I did my time in New York. I know what it's like to be crammed into a small bar. If I'm going to be living in LA, I need to go to a place where there are multiple dance floors so that I never feel like I have to touch another person unless I really want to. If people come to LA and are looking for a place to party and hear good music and dance, Catch One is definitely it—especially if you see a club called Rhonda is at Catch One. They do parties all over LA at different venues, but the ones at Catch One are the best. Rhonda is a mixed party. It is not exclusively queer, but it is predominantly queer. But if you're a straight person and you're visiting LA and you wanna party like me, go to Rhonda and you'll be comfortable. Everyone is welcome there and you'll see some looks, you'll hear some great music, and you'll get to explore this insane maze. It really does feel like the Hogwarts Castle there. Every time, I'm like, 'Wait, how did I get to this room? And where has this room been?' You'll wander down a random staircase and find a different DJ and a smaller dance floor." - brennan carley
