Post-PAX Two Mod Meetup

jessamyn — Mon, 11 Mar 2013 18:20:00 -0800

There's a fun looking daytime meetup on the 23rd. We're looking at have an evening meetup on the 24th to meet PAXers and locals. But neither of us are really familiar with the area. I'll be coming in from MBTA south and restless_nomad will be scooting around before coming over to my place. Suggestions for venues that won't be mobbed where we could have a beer and a burger or something tasty?

You're the Expert Tapes Again!

Aizkolari — Tue, 05 Feb 2013 20:04:09 -0800

You're the Expert is a funny and informative podcast recorded in front of a live studio audience at the Oberon Theater in Cambridge, MA. Every show they bring in an academic expert and then have three comedians perform sketches about what they think the expert does. The catch is the the comedians are not allowed to do any research. At the end of the show the expert explains what the comedians got right and what they got wrong. The comedians are funny and the experts do some interesting stuff. UPDATE: Tickets are available here. Use the promo code OHall for $10 tickets.

You're the Expert Taping

Aizkolari — Mon, 28 Jan 2013 08:42:48 -0800

You're the Expert is a podcast that is recorded monthly at the Oberon Theater. My friend Chris hosts this podcast where he brings in an expert (past experts have included chiroptologists, quantum physicists, and microarchaeologists) and has three comedians perform short sketches based on what they think the expert does. The expert then explains what he or she actually does and what the comedians got right or wrong. I've been to 4 or 5 of these tapings and they are great. The comedians are funny and you learn something too. I'll be at this one and thought that other mefites might enjoy it too. If you want to come you can buy tickets at the Oberon Theater link above.

Golden Triangle - mellow Sunday evening meetup

flex — Mon, 12 Nov 2012 08:40:26 -0800

Trying a meetup at an earlier time to accommodate more people: so I'm calling this one for Sunday, November 25, at 5:30 PM until... whenever! I've decided on the Huether in uptown Waterloo: it's right on King St. so it's easy to get to, they're open late, they have plenty of room for a group, and they have a wide variety of food and drink options. We can sit upstairs, I think, where the bar and outside deck are - I don't think the deck will be open, though. I'll bring some board/card games. I do not have an orange toque, but I can make a sign! Feel free to come a bit later than the start time - I just wanted to make sure it began early enough for anyone who needs to be in bed by a reasonable hour.

Sun November 25 at 5:30 PM, Huether Hotel

Cambridge Chill Out?
