Speeches and Stories

Three prepared speeches explored humor and evaluation. Sampson delivered “Keep in Grandpa’s Closet” from the Engaging Humor pathway, bringing enough energy that members were already buzzing in the group chat the night before. Poornima presented “Give it Time,” connecting with the audience through storytelling. Evan tackled “The Loss of Traditional Virtue” as an evaluation and feedback project, arriving just in time after a heavy rainstorm delayed his commute.

Behind the Scenes

The pre-meeting chat was lively. Sampson announced he had prepared a gift for his Individual Evaluator Stella, prompting playful warnings:

How do we ensure this doesn’t escalate to the level of bribery

When the GE asked role holders how they wanted to be introduced, the responses were characteristically creative:

A handsome man

Two handsome men pls

I have found my long-lost brother

What a great question! I don’t know how to introduce myself either

Table Topics

Tao swapped into the Table Topics Master role for the evening, with the impromptu questions naturally revolving around the theme of sleep and daydreaming.
