Heather Gold at Luscious Garage

The event this evening was a 'talk show' at an auto mechanic shop, Luscious Garage. It's a cute idea so I thought I'd check it out. It's an adventure of sorts.

I think the greatest thing about tonight's event was of course the energy that it generated, and how much the viewers were interested in the topic. People were calling out from the audience, participating in the 'talk show.'

So the guests were good too. A Black woma comedian, she was awesome. The Stanford Law Professor who's also the founder of Common Ground, and this woman, Beth... ugh, I guess she's a marketing guru of sorts.

They all talked about earnesty, and the lack there of in America. It was actually nice for me to hear these things from these people. They were exactly the sort of thing that I was feeling. The conversation remained on an abstract level, which is not good. They need to bring it down to specifics, and also people were too timid to be fiesty in the 'talk'. Even boring Berkeley seminars sometimes have more critical discussion. I hate it when people are too agreeable.

anyway, i'm tired... so more on this tomorrow
