Lin-Manuel Miranda isn't throwing away his shot at dropping more Alexander Hamilton knowledge.

The creator and former star of the Broadway musical Hamilton will give his drunken account of the trials and tribulations of the Founding Father on the Nov. 29 episode of Drunk History.

On Wednesday, Comedy Central teased a two-and-half minute clip of the upcoming episode, where we're given a look at Hamilton's first meeting with Aaron Burr and his early work with George Washington.

Per Drunk History tradition, Miranda voices each of the characters and sets the script.

"You’re gonna be in the guy -- in with the guy who knows best," Miranda says for Washington.

The actors, who play along with whatever Miranda says, include Alia Shawkat of Search Party as Hamilton and Aubrey Plaza of Parks and Rec as Aaron Burr, along with Dave Grohl, James Monroe, David Wain and Bokeem Woodbine, according to EW.

Not satisfied? The full episode airs on Nov. 29 at 10:30 p.m. ET on Comedy Central.
