Comedy & Networking with ex-PayPal Engineer & ex-BCG Consultant

About the Event

Ever feel like your career is one long skit? You're not alone. Join us for a night of unfiltered comedy, unexpected networking, and a little professional chaos — hosted by two people who left the corporate grind and turned their trauma into punchlines.

Whether you're in tech, consulting, creative, or just between existential crises, this night is for you.

What to Expect

🔥 Name Tags + Career Confessions

Slap on your name & profession. Drop a career confession in the bucket (anonymous, of course) — we'll roast it live.

🎤 Comedy Show

We kick off with short intro sets, sketch comedy, and skits that mock everything from micromanaging PMs to LinkedIn humblebrags.

Plus, a live poll to find out who in the audience is faking it ‘til they make it.

Career Confession Read-Alouds (yes, we guess who wrote them)

💬 Speed Intros: Meet the People Behind the Professions

We'll bring folks on stage for lightning-fast intros and Q&A — with a buzzer if you ramble. Think standup-meets-speed-networking.

🤝 Actual Networking Time (Yes, Really)

Stick around after the show to meet other ambitious weirdos. Who knows? You might leave with a job, a friend, or a new comedy writing partner.

Who Should Come?

Techies, consultants, creatives, freelancers, corporate rebels
