Hard Things to Talk About - Bias: Against the Grain

Who said some topics aren’t fit for the dinner table? We brought a taste of danger to dinner.  

Awkward, challenging or taboo? We’ll have it for the table, please.

Risk takers and adventurous spirits alike interrogated their biases at the ‘Hard Things To Talk About’ dinner. Chef O Tama Carey’s five-course menu kept them fed and watered, while John Neil and Wendy Zukerman dissected bias’ evolutionary basis. Is openness unequivocally good?

“A superb evening of sensory curiosities provoking the richest of conversations.” Guest

“It was so much more than a dinner. It really broke down boundaries and opened us up.” Guest

“So amazing to have new and meaningful conversations with old friends.” Guest
