Mixed Taste: The Espinosa Brothers & Nuclear Deterrence
About this Event
Your favorite off-beat lecture series returns to the Holiday Theater! Mixed Taste is back for another summer of mismatched magic, where serious topics meet some not-so-serious fun.
Each night, two speakers take the stage with back-to-back talks on completely unrelated topics. Then the audience steps in for the Q&A and takes questions on both topics at the same time. During the first part of the program, no connections are allowed between the topics. During the Q&A, anything can happen.
Hosted by the inimitable Bobby LeFebre, with house DJ Yucasoul, and new experts, speakers, poets, and mash-ups every week, Mixed Taste is the intellectual joyride you didn’t know you needed.
Wednesday nights at the Holiday Theater. Doors at 6 PM. Program at 7 PM. Drinks, snacks, and serendipity await.
