Brunch Social: Make New Friends

Sun, Oct 25, 4:30 PM

From New York Brunch Club

**Join the New York Lunch Club and make new friends!** Each meetup brings together 4–6 people for casual conversations over lunch. We use the Groupvibe platform to facilitate the meetup and ensure everyone’s a good fit. 👉 **To attend, you’ll need to complete registration via this link:** https://web.groupvibe.com/club?mode=lunch We’ll share the exact location of the upcoming meetup the night before only if you have bought a ticket or membership plan. **Why this works:** \* Smaller groups make real conversations easier. \* Discover new restaurants in your city, together. \* Curated lunch venues with good food and vibe. \* If you hit it off with your group, there’s plenty of time to hang out afterwards. **Note:** RSVPs on Meetup don’t reflect total attendance. Many attendees register directly via our website. The event on Meetup.com is only a placeholder. This meetup is organized by Groupvibe, a small team passionate about helping people form meaningful friendships offline.

We will be using the Socratic method developed by Christopher Phillips & Cecilia Chapa Phillips, this format encourages curiosity and deep exploration of complex ideas. Participants will propose questions, which will be voted on to determine the topic question for discussion. **Topic Ideas or Suggest Your Own:** **Truth and Deception:** \- In an era of misinformation\, what strategies can we employ to become more adept at separating fact from fiction? \- Are there ever situations where deception is not only acceptable but also necessary for the greater good? If so\, what are the ethical boundaries? **Happiness and Fulfillment:** \- Is happiness a fleeting desire or an essential need that drives our lives? What does it truly mean to be happy? \- How do we define and pursue genuine happiness in a world filled with distractions and superficial pleasures? **Moral Frameworks:** \- If you could design the ultimate moral system\, what principles would it be based on\, and why would it be superior to existing ones? \- How do different moral systems influence our decisions and shape society\, and which one do you believe is the most effective in promoting a just and harmonious world? **Love and Connection:** \- What does the concept of a "soulmate" mean in today's world\, and how has the idea evolved over time? \- Is the idea of a soulmate a romantic ideal or a realistic expectation\, and what role does it play in modern relationships? **Family Dynamics:** \- How have the traditional notions of family changed\, and what does the modern family look like in today's society? \- What are the challenges and benefits of the evolving family structures\, and how do they impact individuals and communities? **Changing Wisdom:** \- Which pieces of conventional wisdom have become outdated or irrelevant in our rapidly changing world\, and what new insights should replace them? \- How can we discern which traditional beliefs are timeless and which are in need of revision or replacement? **Wealth and Prosperity:** \- What does wealth truly mean beyond just financial abundance\, and how can it be created in a way that benefits both individuals and society as a whole? \- How do different cultures and societies define and pursue wealth\, and what can we learn from their approaches? **Education Reform:** \- How can we redesign the traditional education system to better prepare students for the current challenges and opportunities? \- What are the most innovative and effective education reform initiatives being implemented around the world\, and what can we learn from them? **Geoffrey Hinton's ("The Godfather of AI") warning:** https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Wd8RzZ3xn7w Let’s enjoy the beautiful weather together!
