let's do fun things
arguing with strangers
arguing with strangers sold out for june, this is the July date
arguing with strangers is half debate club, half open mic, and 100% real talk.
we start things easy. get paired with a stranger, get handed a side, and argue something ridiculous. like is a hot dog a sandwich? defend it with everything you've got and practice disagreeing with a laugh.
then the best matchups go up front. the crowd picks a winner on who's more fun to watch, not who's right.
once everyone's loose, the topics get real and you argue what you actually believe. the stuff you don't usually say out loud to a stranger. what you'd never compromise on. maybe what you've even changed your mind about.
things may get serious, but they stay civil. And at the end of the night, you walk away knowing you can completely disagree with someone and still walk out respecting a new friend.
we forgot how to do that. this is practice.

last call lectures presents: medical mysteries: true stories from the neurology ward the brain is the strangest organ we have, and when it breaks, it breaks in ways that sound made up. patients who can't recognize faces. people convinced a limb isn't theirs. memories that rewrite themselves in real time. this month, ignacio keller sarmiento pulls back the curtain on the neurology ward and the real cases that left even the doctors stunned. ignacio works at the intersection of medicine and the deeply human stories behind each diagnosis. expect true cases, the detective work of figuring out what's actually happening inside someone's head, and what these mysteries reveal about how all of our brains work. expect a 45 minute talk, then small group discussion, then open q&a. come solo, leave with new people and a new appreciation for the three pounds of tissue running your whole life.
